WELCOME TO STERLING'S RESTAURANT

 A Legacy of Dedication and Tradition

Sterling's Restaurant, founded by Jim Sterling in 1982, began its journey in Richland, Washington, after Jim's extensive experience with various chain concepts from New York to Florida and back to Washington. Unlike his previous multi-location ventures, Jim focused on a single establishment to dedicate more time to his family. Remarkably, his daughter Saber visited the restaurant at just 18 hours old, cradled in Jim's arms as he served coffee and introduced her to customers. Saber grew up immersed in the restaurant environment, starting as a host and later waiting tables by age 12.
After Saber's graduation in 2008, Jim expanded Sterling's with a second location in Kennewick, where both father and daughter worked together. In 2011, they opened a third location on Queensgate Drive in Richland, a project Jim personally designed. Saber took on the role of General Manager, working closely with Jim once again. In 2016, Jim undertook a bold move by reconstructing the original George Washington Way location to optimize the river view, using the old structure's wall for the parking lot barrier as a nostalgic touch.
In 2023, Jim retired, passing the reins to his daughter Saber. She and her husband, Clint, now run the restaurants with their management team. Their children, Dash (6) and Demi (4), are also growing up in the family business and are eager to spend more time there as they get older. Sterling's Restaurant proudly re􀀁ects on its 40-year history in the Tri-Cities and eagerly anticipates the years to come as a family-owned and operated business.
