Interesting concept. The bar is pretty small and the food menu covers a lot. Staff was awesome.Just felt like the foot was a little pricey for what it was.
We had a great experience! Our party of 6 was one of the only in the restaurant for an early weekday dinner, but it’s obvious this place can get busy. I ordered the Country Italian - it was a great balance of comfort and tasty. The cheesy sauce for the gnocchi is on the bottom of the dish, be sure to scoop some up to eat with the gnocchi and a bite of chicken! Very delicious! CJ, our waitress, was also very attentive & friendly. I would come here again.
Dichotomy of a rating: Staff was super helpful, friendly and accommodating (shout out to Tessa!). Then we're onto the food. The food is this city one of three types: 1. Fast Food Chain 2. Mexican 3. Ridiculously Overpriced Attempt at Fine Cuisine but Miserably Fails. This place falls into #3.Ordered the Mussels & Goat Cheese Salad. Mussels were clean, so that was a good start. But the sauce... which I'm always super excited about... was bland, mundane, and nearly flavorless... except for a hint of lemon. They added two gigantic pieces of focaccia bread, which , for most dishes, would be great. But focaccia dipped in mussel juice and lemon sauce... does not work at all. My favorite culinary activity in the world in dipping hard, crispy bread in mussel sauce. This totally ruined that dream for me.Goat Cheese Salad - Dressing was completely flavorless, but the greens were fresh. Though I don't know how they did it, but the green mix was also totally flavorless. I know what you're thinking, it's salad. BUT, there are so many greens with popping flavor out there, they chose the ones that taste like air. And not the fun, polluted kind, but just normal, boring, air. Had to bombard the salad with salt and pepper to try and salvage it. Was also able to get a visually detailed description of the sirloin steak. $40 for less than a 6 oz end cap of bottom cut beef.Please let a culinary expert come into this beautifully scenic town and spice things up. They just don't get it.
Service was pretty slow , but they only have two servers to seat, wait and make drinks so it's understandable. If you can be patient it's so worth it. The food is delicious. We had the fried cauliflower which is bomb! I had the country Italian for my entree and then beignets for dessert. All VERY good.
We went here for an early dinner date during their cocktail hour. Pleasant atmosphere. Our server was new but friendly and prompt. We were seated immediately and she came to check on us multiple times. Unfortunately I forgot her name but she was very polite.The focaccia we ordered as an appetiser was delicious, and the same goes for the cheese sauce and onion butter it came with. Very soft and fluffy bread.My husband had the Baseball cut top sirloin which was cooked perfectly to order. He was very pleased with it and claims it is the best steak he’s had in the valley - and he has had a lot.I ordered the shrimp carbonara. It came with Bucatini noodles which are hard to find in the valley. It tasted good and was worth trying, but I would probably not order it a second time.Overall lovely experience and I hope they continue to impress. It is quite affordable during cocktail hour for such high-quality food.Definitely recommend and we will be coming back to try their other seasonal menus.
Have had an overall positive experience every time I've eaten here. Most recently I had the Valentine's dinner. At $60 per person it was fairly priced for a five course meal.The three stars rather than four or five only has to do with the beignets on both the special event menu and the regular dinner menu. They are very very dense and pretty bland. The portion size is also very large so I wouldn't suggest ordering the beignets unless you're in a party of three or more. But otherwise I really enjoy Stones, they have a fun cocktail selection and consistently good food
Nice little place that is downtown and within walking distance of many other options and hotels if you are staying in the area. Pretty small beer selection but they had some nice cocktails to make up for it. The food was tasty and the loaded fries were a belly full! A little on the high side of the price spectrum and probably more suited for a date night rather than a everyday spot.
The food they cook smells gross.Nothing on the menu including drinks remotely looked intriguing enough to drop $30.Not my thing.
Pros: ambiance is casual, industrial and it made us remember this cute pub in SanFran. Music was a fun mix of 70s, 80s, and 90s. Interesting PNW menu, with a largely Washington wine list. Table ready for reservations. Ample portions. Bread with cider cheese and onion butter was interesting. Dill tartar (Chippy) was fantastic - the highlight that saved everything. Beignets were great. Mix between new Orleans Cafe du mode with the powdered sugar and French pastry with the Nutella and caramel. Cons: almost 20 min before being acknowledged in restaurant with people at 7 tables. We were "dressed for dinner" so I don't feel like they were profiling us. Ample staff leaned against the wall, avoiding eye contact or wrapping silverware. When we got her attention, food came fast. Halfway through meal, she asked if we wanted dessert. A little rushed, but the restaurant wasn't even half full. Food was okay. Too much salt on foccacia. Wagyu burger, my husband loved but he didn't like the fries. Fish and chips were a little doughy, but the quality of fish was fine. Cute nod at newspaper for the chippy, but lost it with Cole slaw instead of mushy peas. We eat out quite regularly and this isn't one we'll be back to any time soon.
The service is not an issue. The ambience is not terribly comfortable and it’s one big room with an industrial feel. Feels more like a brewery. I ordered the hangar steak and it had no flavor at all. Just a rubbery piece of meat. It came with fries and no veggie which seemed odd for $30. One other in the party had the same and didn’t finish half the steak. Another ordered a goat cheese salad that was good. it was my first and last visit here. There are better options in town.
