   In a city with no shortage of upscale dining experiences, The Standard is a truly unique option with amazing food, service, and ambiance. Highly recommend this as a more intimate dining experience perfect for romantic or special occasions. The building itself is a beautiful and historic part of Nashville and as is worth a visit on its own. The owners go to great lengths to make every guest feel welcome and ensure they have an enjoyable experience.

    Wonderfully elegant restaurant with a big history. Many interesting areas in this beautiful old converted house. Food was excellent and every guest gets greeted by the owner, Sharon Smith and given a little history lesson while being navigated to the bar lounge for cocktails before dinner. A must while in Nashville. Lovely 😊

    We really enjoyed celebrating our 42nd Anniversary at the Smith house. Service was impeccable. From the moment we arrived - the Valet attendant greeted us by our names told us the history of the house and took our pictures. Inside was amazing- original flooring. Food was amazing and cooked to order. Well worth the price paid to celebrate a milestone in our life. Thank you Smith family. We hope to return 😃

    This is a must if you are in Nashville! The Smith House is a remarkably restored townhome and the food and service is outstanding. We have never experienced such an allover wonderful experience! I had the chilean sea bass, and my husband had the Standard Filet. We split key lime pie for dessert. Everything was perfect!

    We’ve dined at The Standard a few times and have always loved it but this meal was especially amazing. Sharon is the definition of ‘southern hospitality’. I made a reservation for the earliest they had open which was 8:30pm but called to see if we could be added to a waitlist to get in a bit earlier if someone were to cancel. Sharon accommodated us by moving our reservation up to 8pm which was very appreciated. But it doesn’t stop there. We had a last minute (more like last second) add to our party of 3 making it a party of 4. I was hesitant to even ask Sharon if she could accommodate us because she had already been so nice. But she responded with “of course! Just give me a few minutes to adjust”. Never once rolling her eyes or showing frustration. She truly goes above and beyond to make her guests happy. And the food was outstanding. My steak was cooked to perfection and you can’t go wrong with any of the sides but if I had to pick favorites my top three are the asparagus, mashed potatoes, and Mac and cheese! Make sure to get a drink at the bar first - very cool experience.

    Overall a great experience. The only reason not 5 star review was because we waited 2 hours to get our food. This was our first time there so not sure if that was unusual or the norm.

    This restaurant was absolutely incredible. This was the best steak I’ve ever had, with delicious mashed potatoes and other sides as well. The general dining area was really unique being part of an old mansion. I will 100% come back in the future.

    Unique setting in an old mansion with excellent food and service to match. Everyone from the valets out front ("managers of first impressions"), to the hostesses, waiters, and bar staff treated us as a mix between VIPs and old friends. Make sure you visit the cozy bar before or after dinner. Get the mac & cheese side (I recommend an "extra bake" to get a carmellized top).

    My daughter & I brought my mom to a the Standard for dinner for Mother’s Day. When we walked in we were given a tour &seated. The service got off to a very slow start. We waited 15 minutes for our drinks & then another 10 minutes after that for bread. We ordered 2 Filets and 1 Ribeye. The filets came out perfect however the ribeye was definitely closer to medium than well done. After sending it back it came back not done again. When it did come back, the second time, both my mom & my daughter were finished with theirs so the potatoes were already cold of course. After the shock of the $315 bill, (and the fact that we were charged $3 for cherries in a Shirley Temple) we went out to retrieve our cars from the valet. He pulled my car up & parked it super close to the car in front of mine. I did not want to leave my mother standing on the sidewalk alone but the valet refused to go & get my moms car until we were sitting inside of my car. Once my mother’s car was brought up, we were leaving but the car was still in front of mine. I cut my wheels as sharp as I could to pull out but hit the small plastic valet sign that he had not moved. I noticed him motioning wildly & could hear him screaming at me from inside my vehicle. I stopped to hear him calling me a stupid b*tch. He proceeded to grab the sign, while continuing to cuss & yell at me, & throw it as hard as he could toward the restaurant area. I was in absolute shock so I left. I called Sharon, the owner, the next day & told her what happened. She did not call me back like she said she would so I called her back. I was merely told that the valet situation had been dealt with. Oh & the $3 cherries would be refunded to my card. I thought the situation was over with & decided I would not be back to that establishment. Two hours later, my daughter calls me. The owners son has called the hotel that my daughter works at & proceeded to rudely question her & berate her. Worst experience ever. Ridiculous! DO NOT RECOMMEND

    Wonderful experience from start to finish - greeted outside by host with a brief history, and we were treated like we were the only ones dining although restaurant was busy but not overcrowded- spacing out was intentional. Food was exceptional and service better than we’ve experienced in a very long time!! Well done Standard!!
