Pacific Standard Prime

Food: 10 stars out of 5Service: 7 stars out of 5Ambiance: Great! I saw good spread of crowds from families having get-together meals, what looked like business dinners (or just a bunch of adults that knew each other), and then we were kinda off to the side enjoying our "date night without the kids" outing. For the families: this is a fancy dinner place, but they have appropriate child-friendly staff & menu. I personally wouldn't bring my own kids here, but that's because my kids are too young and culinarily inexperienced to appreciate the quality of food & ambiance/environment. I hope this place stays in business for a long time; it's the kind of place I want to bring my son to celebrate his college acceptance to his dream school.

My husband and I recently came here for dinner for a date night. Reservations were easy to make via OpenTable. When I walked in I noticed a very casual bar with a TV. But the rest of the space had a more formal vibe more appropriate for a steakhouse dinner date. We sat at a lovely velvety booth that was very spacious and comfortable! I loved the ambience--both contemporary yet cozy. It's slightly dim lit but not too dark. Great for a date, special occasion or a nice family dinner. We shared the following:- Kumamoto Oysters - very fresh! Loved the mignonettes it came with!- Warm Sourdough Boule - underrated item! Wow this bread was SO good! I'm not a big bread person but I really enjoyed this. It was perfectly baked, warm, soft on the inside with a delightful chewy and crispy thin crust. It came with a delicious aromatic olive oil and a compound butter with edible florals. - Porterhouse Steak - made up of a filet and New York strip, served cut from the bone and sliced. I especially enjoyed the filet side. Overall, it was a good steak but not amazing in my opinion. Not as good as Mastro's, but for the South Bay, it's probably one of the best in this area along with The Arthur J. - Charred farmers market chimichurri broccoli - skip this. I wouldn't get this again. I was expecting more of a charred flavor but it was overpowered by too much acid/citrus. It had a sour taste and an unbalanced flavor profile. Maybe it was an off day. Service here was excellent! It really stood out as a notch above the usual standard service at other restaurants. Every staff member we encountered was great. We even noticed the owner walking around and engaging with guests which was nice to see. Parking: free and super easy in the parking garage next to it

Finally came back for a Holiday dinner with friends. Still one of the better steakhouses in the Southbay with a HUGE whiskey selection. Service and ambience was excellent and Kevin stopped by to say hello. Also went to HH here a week earlier which was nice. 4pm - 6:30pm in the bar, Tuesday - Thursday and Sunday.

We were on the lookout for a great spot to celebrate my wife's recent work successes, and she had her eye on Pacific Standard Prime, especially after seeing the stellar Yelp reviews.Our evening began with a warm welcome from Christina at the host stand. We were seated in a cozy booth with comfortable high-back seats and decorative extenders that provided a semi-private atmosphere. The restaurant's decor was charming, featuring elegant chandeliers and a wooden trellis ceiling. The white color scheme, accented by stylish green plant motifs on the walls and beams, created a fresh ambiance. A standout feature was the impressive wine wall, which added to the overall appeal. Plus, they passed my bathroom cleanliness test--an essential for any place aiming for five stars!For those just wanting drinks, the well-stocked bar had televisions, and that night they were airing the ALCS, where the Yankees triumphed over the Guardians, 8-6. You will get a few menus when you first sit down. They have an enormous whisky menu, which happens to be a favorite of mine. One of the evening's many highlights was our waiter, Seth, who was not only knowledgeable about the menu but also had a fantastic personality. When the owner, Kevin, stopped by to check on us, he described Seth as "dinner, AND A SHOW." We definitely enjoyed the show--great job, Seth, we enjoyed dining with you. Now, onto the food, which truly impressed. Chef Christine deserves applause for her culinary skills. For appetizers, we shared the Wedge salad, which was crisp and topped just right. The star of the show was the incredible country bread served with infused butter. Kevin explained the FRESH, bread-making process, and you could truly taste the difference--it was divine.For our main courses, my wife had the 8oz Wanderer Filet Mignon, cooked perfectly to her liking, while I savored the Cioppino, brimming with the ocean's treasures. The broth was delightful, complemented by three delicious pieces of bread.For beverages, I enjoyed a martini, and my wife loved her scratch-made PSP cocktail. We capped off the meal with the sticky toffee pudding, which was the perfect sweet ending.In summary, if you're considering Pacific Standard Prime, don't hesitate. My wife felt we celebrated her achievements beautifully. Kudos to the entire staff at PSP for creating something truly special!

Ok 1000/10!! The food was really good! I liked the overall quality of the food and the steaks were on point! The server was really friendly and was very knowledgeable on the menu! The service was also quick and the ambiance was a 10/10!I definitely recommend this place if you're in the area!

THE best steakhouse in the South Bay. Service is always 10/10. The restaurant has a beautiful ambience and I love sitting at the bar for happy hour.

A million thanks for an amazing Thanksgiving meal PSP! Service and food were amazing. Got additional appetizers like the crab & artichoke dip which definitely had a generous portion of crab meat. Hope to come back for holiday and non holiday meals soon!

Had a great time having dinner in this place with friends the other day. In my opinion, The best part of this restaurant was their impeccable and friendly service. However I think the food was just okay. For the steak, I still love Mastro's a little bit more. I found the steak seasoning was a little bit bland. I did, however, enjoy my pumpkin espresso martini though!

We went for brunch on Sunday and the service and food were amazing! My favorite is always the classic "eggs Benedict ". But there are many other delicious items to choose from! I definitely will return soon!

EVERYTHING was perfect! I am a total foodie and this is the first time every single dish was made PERFECTLY on point!! My friend and I have had a monthly dinner for years and we both agreed this was one of the best! Cream of broccoli soup: Delicious, flavorful and NOT too creamy. You could see and taste the broccoli. Filet Mignon: cooked perfectly medium as ordered. We chose the Peppercorn Sauce (recommended by our server) and it was delicious and not overly spicy. Brussels Sprouts: the gochujang was not overdone. Hint of heat, but could still taste the vegetables. The sprouts were not overcooked. Very tasty! Scalloped potatoes: made with three cheeses. We thought it may come "too cheesy", but no! Perfection!! Potatoes were not soggy and it was served with just the right amount of the sauce; wasn't drowning the potatoes. Lemon curd tiramisu: what a nice twist on this dessert! Not overly sweet. We were so full by then but couldn't stop eating this! I want this again for dessert! Pinot Noir: unfortunately don't remember the label but it was delicious! Though lighter than a Cabernet Sauvignon and the Bordeaux, it was balanced and went well with our meal. Service: Mark was our server and he was fantastic! Very upbeat and pleasant demeanor. Professional. Just the right amount of "checking in", each course served in the appropriate timing and made great recommendations for wine and sauce for the filet mignon. He also explained the quality of the meat, where it is from, etc. PSP serves quality protein and fresh vegetables from farmers markets. Some might think this place is a bit pricey, but remember, you get what you pay for! What you put in your body is very important and clearly PSP cares about that!
