Restaurants near Stony Brook Park

We came to Stanford for work and while looking a place to have a date/Dinner we crossed paths with this restaurant and we are so lucky we did! Reservation was easy,service is top notch from servers,managers to bussers ! Drinks are amazing but food is 10000 amazing! Get the full experience if you’re a meat lover so you can try each of the cuts! Desserts (crème brûlée) was spectacular with a clean and nice presentation! Would definitely come back as many times as possible! Shoutout to the whole team 🎉🫶

The capital Grille was a great experience. I took my wife on a date night and the food and the service were better than even expected. I highly recommend the capital Grille.

A wonderful dinner - again! We just love this restaurant - great food, knowledgeable and careful service, comfortable setting. Three of us started with the sformata and escargot. If you have not had L’Ostal’s sformata you are missing a real treat: light, flavorful and warm - perfect for a cold night. The escargot were exactly as they should be ( and my son and I fought to soak up the sauce with the bread pieces!). For entrees, we each loved our choices. My son found the paparadelli to be exactly correct - hearty, tasty. My wife had the duck and we all thought it was ideal - moist, flavorful, tender. I had the skate and it was delicious. I love properly prepared skate but find it much less often these days - and L’Ostal made it perfect, light, flavorful, tender. A glass of Pinot noir and it was a perfect dinner. We just love this place! If you haven’t been, go soon.

A bit disappointed to be seated right by the service door to kitchen when there were other tables open. Also did not get the requested booth. Otherwise all good.

The food was good. The gnocchi were under cooked but the sauce was delicious. The veal Osso Bucco special was very tasty. The service was not very good. We had empty drinks after bringing our drinks from the bar and were never asked if we needed another drink. I would consider going again but if the service doesn’t improve, it would be my last. Separately, it is cold in the restaurant especially near the from window where we were seated.
