Good for special occasions
Neighbourhood gem
Great for fine wines

Since its opening in 1974, prime steaks and martinis have never gone out of style at this Palo Alto institution. The atmosphere is very clubby with fireplaces, dark wood, sports memorabilia and plush leather booths tucked into the many nooks throughout the dining room. Famous for their slow-roasted prime rib & hand-cut U.S.D.A Prime Steaks, they also offer fresh seafood, cold water lobster tail & succulent shellfish. The 20 oz. Bone-In Rib eye Steak is the Boss’ Favorite while the Double Cut Filet Mignon runs a close second. Sundance is respected for serving the best food money can buy coupled with value & simplicity – a welcome relief for serious food & steak aficionados. The menu is supported by an award-winning wine list that features over 400 selections focusing on highly allocated Napa Valley Cabernets. Exceptional ratings & numerous restaurant awards rank Sundance the Steakhouse as a true dining destination.

We've been going to Sundance for many years. It is a great place for special occasions as well as a place to have a great meal. The waiters are warm and friendly and the service is excellent. If you like steak, lobster or prime-rib this is the place for you. The clam chowder is spectacularly good as is my favorite, the wedge salad. The bread is always served warm and they make a superb bloody mary. The food is so good that it is no wonder that it is hard to find a place to park! If you haven't been there you are missing a peninsula treasure.

Perfect experience! Great old-school steakhouse with amazing meats and FABULOUS fish options! I had the swordfish and it was spectacular. My friend had the scallops which she said were also delicious (and don't miss the mashed potatoes). Our waiter (Jeff) was happy, engaged, always there when we needed him and full of holiday cheer! Love this place -- an icon in the community. AND packed so make reservations and eat early if you can!

As usual Sundance hit it out of the park! I brought some friends from work here to celebrate the year. We just had burgers and the prime rib dip AND the famous clam chowder! We also had mud pies and apple pie. Monica our server was phenomenal, she let us be most of the time but checked in on us and did a fantastic job with the wine recommendation.

I love Sundance. Food is always delicious. However, today was so noisy that I could not hear the person sitting next to me. I will not be going there again around the holidays.

Sending gratitude and well wishes to and for all the staff that worked so hard on this evening to make our wishes come true. Each of you that we interacted with made this an evening to remember and I hope you know how much your kind gestures, big and small were and are appreciated. -Including allowing us to stand in the way between staff and bar without so much as a grimace or hint of annoyance though it was not lost on me, how frustrating it must have been maneuvering martinis between us on such a busy evening! Thank you and Merry Christmas- may all of your guests be kind and big tippers this holiday and may all your wishes come true!

NOISE LEVEL WAS APPALLING. 14 (!) TIMES I HEARD THE TABLE next to me YELL THE "F" WORD AND THE MANAGER WD **NOT** DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE ARROGANT, ENTITLED MEN's yelling! I COULD NOT EVEN TALK W MY HUSBAND At MY OWN TABLE BC NOISE LEVEL WAS SO EXTREME. WE will not dine there again and have been doing so since 1995 when the $80 NY Strip was $28 for a Sunset dinner. The place has held such sentimental values of happiness. NO More. We might buy food to go, but won't dine there again. the managr shd have given free deserts to the obvious men along w a bill and started clearing the table to rush them out. In stead he was a cowardand didn't care about his other customers.

Sundance is a first class experience. Great presentation and ambiance. Server was very welcoming but.wait for meal long m, but not unpleasant with nice bread and butter. Asked for medium burger and got rare, which soaked into the bun and made it soggy. Still overall, very nice to be there.
