Built by famed architect Julia Morgan in 1918 and steeped in Stanford history, MacArthur Park is home to classic Bar-B-Q made with local ingredients and served with respect. Characterized by its traditional grandeur, our space is full of light and denotes its polished personality and nostalgia. Since we opened in 1972, we’ve been proud to welcome members of this vibrant community, and we plan on carrying on the tradition for decades to come.
