Arya Steakhouse

Went to Arya Steakhouse after a long time and had an absolutely wonderful experience. We started with the bread basket, which offers an excellent variety and was truly delicious. For the main course, we ordered the Cowboy Steak and Barg from the Persian menu. After a long time, I had a steak cooked perfectly - just the way a Medium done steak should be. We wrapped up the meal with Butter Cake and Persian tea, which was the perfect ending. The food was outstanding overall, but what truly set this visit apart was our server, Vino. Vino took our dining experience to the next level with exceptional attentiveness, warmth, and professionalism. While the steak was fantastic, it was Vino’s service that will keep us coming back more often. Keep up the great work, Vino!

While attending a conference at Stanford university, I was staying at a nearby hotel. One weekday evening, I went there for dinner in a group of 5. The place was not too crowded and was quiet. The servers were very nice. We ordered some wine, a few appetizers, and five entries. All the dishes were pretty tasty. The quantities were good. It was somewhat pricey, but I suppose this is Stanford---so can't complain about that. Overall, we were quite happy with our experience and would gladly go back there.

Our experience here definitely was outstanding from start to finish. Parking usually is not a hassle as there are a couple of parking lots that can be used depending on the time of the day, for parking needs. Richard was our host, and he was absolutely amazing, attentive, knowledgeable, and perfectly paced throughout the evening, making sure everything flowed smoothly. We started with a side of vegetables that turned out to be vibrant, colorful, and beautifully prepared. Each vegetable tasted fresh and well-seasoned, making it a standout side rather than an afterthought. We ordered the Ash Soup (Aash Reshteh) along with that and it definitely was comforting, hearty, and full of depth. Warm, flavorful, and made with care exactly what you want in a traditional Persian soup. Ready to eat

The atmosphere is amazing and the service is up to par, but the food is just ok, but nothing to write home about. I am not saying that the food is bad, but $170 for 2 people (before tip), you can expect more! For this price, you would expect a lot bigger portions or tastier food, but it will leave you wanting more. Still, the staf, the ambiance and the hospitaliy is alone worth the visit, but beware that it will call for a high price.

Arya Steakhouse was really good. The steaks were excellent and cooked perfectly, and the creamy gnocchi was amazing. The atmosphere is nice and relaxed, and the waiters were great super attentive and friendly. It’s also a great place for special occasions like birthdays or anniversaries. Overall, a great experience and definitely a place I’d go back to.
