Stanton Social

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to only order appetizers all night for dinner?  If that's something you like along with good food, a trendy atmosphere and no more than 2 or 3 of your friends or family members, I highly suggest going to Stanton Social.  The music is loud and it's kind of dark, but the food is spectacular.  For a table of 4 people, they recommend 8 - 10 dishes.  All dishes are small plates and meant for sharing.  So get excited to try lots of food, and I promise you will enjoy it. Let the foodie roller coaster ride, begin! 

*Note - Don't forget to make a reservation at least a few days in advance.  This place is packed even on week nights!  (average wait time with a reservation is approximately 15 - 45 minutes) 

Allergy Info: 
They are very accommodating with allergies.  Just tell your server and they will make sure the dishes that you order are allergy free (or not appropriate for your particular allergy) 
Vegetarian  / Fish / Meat options all available 

Foodie Rundown: 
French Onion Soup Dumplings  - A fan favorite across the board.  Don't come here if you don't plan on getting these.  So fabulous from the presentation to the taste!  Careful, these are very hot (temperature).  So eat them slow! 

Potato & Goat Cheese Pierogies with caramelized onions & truffle creme fraiche - my personal favorite.  The creme fraiche can be eaten on its own, it's to die for.  Life changing actually. 

Red Snapper Tacos with creamy avocado and spicy mango 

Hand Pulled Chicken Arepas with jalapeño salsa verde  - Guess I forgot to take a picture of these!  But they were delicious as well.  Definitely on the spicy side, but full of great flavor! 

Maryland Jumbo Lump Crabcake 'Corn Dogs'   - Just as cool as they sound, my mom's personal favorite!

Thai Spiced Baby Back Ribs with a hoisin BBQ glaze, jicama slaw and lemongrass oil  - So the waitress said these would fall right off the bone, and they did (we tested).  The flavors were so great, but we were so full!  But we kept on eating! 

Kobe Philly Slider / Grilled Aged Cheddar Slider with jalapeño bacon / Kobe Beef Slider with a side of assorted pickles.  The chips are sour cream and onion flavored, and the burgers are great!  I've tried almost all of them on the menu, but I keep coming back to the Kobe Philly!  (the truffle creme fraiche is on the top, I can't resist) 

Baked Spanikopita with Spinach in a puff pastry.  So this word is evidently easier to say that what I say.  But after many attempts, I just went with the "Baked Spanky".  These were outrageous, newer on the menu and full of flavor and delicious flakey pastry! 

Dessert 
Pumpkin filled twinkie with Hot Chocolate Bourbon dessert shots.  Not being a huge fan of pumpkin didn't stop me from loving this pumpkin filled twinkie!  Plus, who doesn't love twinkles?  

The bourbon shots are always delicious.  They change seasonally with regards to either hot shots or cold shots.  But this wintery hot chocolate shot was the icing on the cake for an outrageous meal!
