The Standard

"The Standard was perfection in dining. Last week we celebrated our anniversary with a meal at the Standard. The hostess was welcoming and explained the history while seating us in the bar area. Micheal the bartender poured nice strong tasty drinks. Our meal consisted of the lobster bisque appetizer, the rack of lamb (medium rare!) and the Standard Filet. We finished with the chocolate cookie w ice cream dessert. Everything was truly amazing. David our server gave us outstanding service and his knowledge of the ingredients and preparation of the dishes was next level. The assistant server was professional and attentive. Atmosphere and ambiance at the Standard completed the night. It felt like a different place in time. Thanks to the David and the team at the Standard for an epic night !"

"The first stop on my #nashville trip was at The Standard at the Smith House which is supposedly the oldest building in the city from what I understand. The vast home is deceivingly large with a massive dining area. The upstairs is home to a very exclusive members only cigar bar which adds to the intrigue. The service and food were both phenomenal here. The beef tartare would be a repeat for sure and the lamb chops were tender and flavorful. The hit though was the pork chop which was soft and buttery, just loaded with taste. Turned out to be a great way to start the trip!"

"Love this place! Excellent service and dinner was delicious. I had the standard filet, and it was cooked to perfection. The bar is a must stop, amazing atmosphere & the bartenders we're on point. Highly recommend."

"Your meal might have been cool, but was it a private table & special menu in the Standard Whiskey collection room cool? I dare say not! We had curated large appetizers, cocktails, and wine to start, with crab bisque and salad second course followed by Standard signature filet, seabass, and salmon, finished off by house made cheesecake, key lime pie, and coffee. Everything was perfect, delicious, and for a premium prime steakhouse, surprisingly reasonable on the bill! Our sides included green beans, mash potato, mac & cheese, creamed corn, and amazing bread."

"I wish my pictures could better represent how incredible our dinner was at The Standard. This was one of the best dinners we've ever had (ever) especially because of how fancy and unique the experience was. The staff welcomed us by name at the door, gave us a tour, and told us about the history of the building. Each of the dishes was so beautifully made! It was well worth the price for a fancy, special night out."
