Stark’s is a classic steak & seafood house located in an 1892 historic downtown Santa Rosa landmark, where casual elegance meets Wine Country sophistication. We are an exclusive partner with Certified Angus Beef®, serving both Choice and Prime selections. Stark’s is one of just a few restaurants in the Bay Area with dry aging in-house; an intensive process that deepens flavor, enhances tenderness, and gives each steak its signature richness.
The menu is a thoughtful blend of traditional staples and Stark’s signature showstoppers: 48oz long-bone ribeye, warm lobster a la plancha, seared scallops, American Wagyu, and the iconic Stark’s Standard Burger crafted from the same dry-aged beef as our steaks.
Pair it all with one of over sixty whiskeys, a deep wine list featuring California and European bottles, and a full bar known for its timeless cocktails and a Happy Hour voted Best in Sonoma County by the Press Democrat Reader’s Choice since it’s introduction in 2009.
For celebrations and gatherings, the West End Dining Room seats up to 40 guests, while our private wine cellar—an intimate space for up to 14—is a stunning backdrop for unforgettable events.
If you’re craving a classic New York style steakhouse—Stark’s Steak & Seafood is always the right call.
