Great food, lovely vibes and amazing service. First time here. We tried the Steak rolls, classic caesar salad, shrimps and grits, and the roasted prime rib hash. Everything was amazing. We loved the booths - so cozy and cute. The service was fast. Looks like they have a great wine selection as well although we didn’t try it. Will be returning for sure.

We went to celebrate a birthday and the service is great. Kaillee, our waitress, did an awesome job, very attentive and accommodating. I ordered a Ahi Tuna salad that is not on the dinner menu but they kindly prepared it. The Ahi Tuna was perfectly cooked, the salad it self was good. The Burgers were really good and the fries with the parmesan cheese nicely done. The soups were good.

I don't have words for how amazing this place is. First of all; absolutely breath taking atmosphere. Really made me feel like I was fine dinning. Secondly; the hostesses were so friendly and inviting . Thirdly; our waiter, Joshua, was lovely. He was very knowledgeable about the menu, he even recommended pairing certain drinks with certain entrées. He was able to answer our questions and if he didn't know he'd immediately go ask and quickly come back with a thorough answer. He was very attentive to ALL his tables and made us feel special. And lastly, but CERTAINLY not least; the food. Wow! Cooked to perfection. Very delicious! HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. Thank you all for the incredible experience. That is the best service I've ever had in my life. Joshua needs to be the model for how ALL service individuals should treat their guests. EXCELLENT!

Our waiter was the happiest sweetest guy. He never failed to come to our table without a huge smile on his face. The food is amazing. It truly is so good and worth the higher price point. The portions are huge so to-go boxes are common. The menu is very broad so everyone is able to find something they will enjoy. The drink list is also very large. The atmosphere is elegant with lowlighting bringing on that fancy vibe. Bathrooms are nice and smell AMAZING. This is a GREAT place for birthdays, work dinners, family visits, or any other special occasions. Warning- its freezing inside so I'd recommend wearing or bringing a jacket/sweater

This place is amazing, my husband brought me here for my birthday (10/29) the young lady was top tier, she was the best! I fell in love, the atmosphere is amazing! Came here last night, not sure of the servers name but he was top tier! Wish he had a badge so I can give him credit! But however we will be back 🩷🩷

The steak salad at Stoney Grill was pretty good. The steak was cooked well, and the portion size was just right. The salad was fresh with a good mix of greens and toppings. It’s a decent option if you’re looking for something hearty yet light. Not amazing, but definitely satisfying. My one complain is that the steak was really cold when served. My son loved the blackened salmon Cesar.

We had a delightful experience here for lunch today. The service is incredible, the atmosphere was great, and the food was amazing. I ordered the cedar plank salmon, this is a steak house so I knew it was a risk to order fish, but I went ahead anyways. The salmon was cooked wonderfully, the flavor was good, but not exactly there yet. The potatoes and broccoli on the side were great. We were in a big group and most everyone else ordered steak and they all said it was absolutely the best steak they have ever had. I enjoyed my experience, and the rest of our group did as well. Next time we come I would love to try the steak!
