Came here for a birthday brunch and Blackstone did not disappoint. The restaurant and decor are really cute, warm, moody and stylish. It's very modern and inviting. The food was amazing. The mascarpone French toast lives up to its title it's easily their best menu item to date. The mimosa flights were absolutely delicious and such a fun touch, especially for a celebration! The flavors aren't too intense or sweet; just the right amount of flavor and aroma. They have a large menu from chilaquiles to omelets, a little bit for everyone's taste! Service was attentive and the whole experience felt nice. If you're looking for a birthday brunch spot in Corona, this is the one I highly recommend! read more

Nice atmosphere on the inside. And the service was pretty good, did take a while for me to get my coffee though. I got the Benedict trip, tasted fresh and flavorful, came with potatoes. They were not crispy more sautéed. Which is fine but I do prefer a crispy homestyle potato. Overall would try again for dinner, looked like they have interesting options. read more

The food was so good! The guacamole, fried beef appetizer 10 out of 10! One of the most innovated fun appetizers I've had in a long time. And all of their sauces were so good too. I would come back just for that appetizer. We also ordered the filet mignon and short rib ribs both of them excellent! The ambience was a cool modern vibe you had people dressed up you had people in T-shirts and hats. It was definitely a vibe. The service was pretty good, they work as a team so all the servers can help if you ask anyone for services. Our service was a little slow in the beginning, but definitely got better after the appetizer came out. I will definitely be back. read more

Let's start with how amazing our server Paloma is! We were at our table and she instinctively moved another table over so we had more space. She knew the menu so well she basically told my hubby what to eat and drink and he LOVED it. He had the chilaquiles with chicken (cause he doesn't eat pork or beef) and I had the very basic eggs, potatoes and bacon. The potatoes were very tasty and the bacon was cooked to perfection. We stopped by here on our way home from a quick weekend getaway, and we'll definitely be back with friends! Bathrooms are clean and upscale, as is this place. Great food, excellent service and very classy read more

Brunch at Blackstone Kitchen was an absolute delight! The space is gorgeous--stylish and inviting with beautiful natural light that makes the perfect brunch vibe. The menu is exceptional. I ordered the ribeye & eggs paired with the mimosa flight, and the lavender mimosa was incredible--light, floral, and refreshing. My friend went with the Benedict flight, and each variation was a flavor bomb. The pork belly with tomatillo sauce was her favorite, and I can see why--it was perfectly balanced and rich without being heavy. The photo really shows how generous and beautifully plated their dishes are, from the crispy roasted potatoes to the perfectly poached eggs and vibrant sauces. Prices are a bit on the higher side, but given the quality, creativity, and presentation of the food, plus the beautiful ambiance, it's completely worth it. Service was attentive and friendly without ever being intrusive. Blackstone Kitchen is a brunch spot I'd happily return to again and again! read more

First time trying Blackstone and very impressed. We had Vodka Penne Shrimp with buratta cheese (!!) and Ribeeye Tacos -- which although listed as a shareable was a large portion for one! Generous Side of roasted garlic mushrooms rounded out the meals perfectly. Large sides, great ambiance and decor. Highly recommended and glad to see a steady Sunday nite crowd. (Oh and don't miss the Cherry Old Fashioned) read more

I'm sorry but $5 for an ice tea and $6 for a Coca Cola? Mind you also the biscuits and gravy was one biscuit cut in half for $10. Tomatillo sauce is so strong. The cheese in the enchilada is weird. The potatoes are bland. I'm not a food critic, but I would highly recommend not going here. Positives, the staff was really nice. read more

I was very happy with my experience here. It was my first time dining at Blackstone. The restaurants is a good size with inside and covered patio seating. I was glad to have made reservations because there seemed to be a bit of a wait and there was no shade from the hot sun. The place is clean, modern, and kind of dark inside which was part of the ambience. The hostess was very friendly and accommodating. The sever was helpful and efficient as was the supporting staff. My friend and I split the steak and eggs with an added side of avocado and the mascarpone French toast. The skirt steak was pretty good and the eggs were perfectly over easy. The potatoes are very tasty and not over seasoned. The French toast however was killer. I don't normally like french toast but this was delicious. I would definitely return. read more

I came here for brunch, not sure of what to expect. I know it's a relatively new restaurant and wanted to give it a chance. First and foremost, reservations were made for 11:30 am, and they didn't seat us until 11:45 am. I get it, it's busy, but that's the first time that I was seated close to the reservation time. The second, it took them another 10 minutes before a waiter came by to take our order and even then he forgot my drink until I reminded him. The food itself was okay, I got the biscuit, gravy, and eggs. To be fair, the biscuit reminded more of a pancake than an actual biscuit. The hot sauce though - worth it. The venue itself is really nice, the ambiance is calming and a great place to just have a nice meal and hangout. read more

Amazing brunch experience. Highly recommend making reservations in advance to avoid waiting. Let's start with the beverages: We began with the mimosa flight, 3 Mimosas beautifully presented and each one was delicious. Ordered a banana iced latte as well, so good! For brunch the star dish was chicken and waffles, the chicken was perfectly crisp and the sauces was a great compliment. So fresh! The chilaquiles were average, too much chips not enough chicken. I probably wouldn't get it again. The ambiance is very much grown, didn't see many families. It is perfect for grabbing brunch with a friend or a cute date. Overall, amazing brunch experience. Get the mimosa flight and chicken and waffles. read more

Food: Good, I ordered a mixture of meat lovers omelette and the veggie, plus wanted cheese, avocado and jalapeños. They didn't add the veggies inside the omelet, they put it on the side & forgot the cheese, avocado and jalapeños, otherwise it was delicious especially the side veggies were nice & Grilled. Service: The servers were very nice Ambiance: modern, dark and cool vibe Price:$$$ read more

First time trying the dinner menu at Blackstone. We were pleasantly surprised by how delicious and authentic the mole was. The order comes with 2 large (and stuffed) enchiladas and a side of rice and beans. My husband tapped out before he finished the plate, the enchiladas were generously filled with chicken. I had the Rib Eye tacos, which is technically an appetizer. The tacos were large and very filling. Bonus, the tacos come with a trio of sauces which were delicious. Also, both plates were beautifully presented. Overall, the food and ambiance were superb and we will definitely be back. read more

What a great little restaurant. It's lovely inside and on the small side. It was almost perfect. I'll start with the food: The PAN SEARED SCALLOPS were cooked perfectly! The sauce was surprisingly complimentary, the mashed potatoes were tasty but the asparagus was awful. It had a bitter taste and no seasoning at all. I'd get the broccolini next time. My hubby got the FILLET MIGNON and he was in heaven. He keeps asking to go back every day! We shared the PAN DE ELOTE and it was good, but I wish they would've had another option besides cheesecake. The restaurant is dark, too dark. It's really hard to read the menus. I kept getting blinded by people's cell phone flashlights being used to see the menu. They need to turn up the lights, a tad. I couldn't even see how much salt and pepper I was putting on the unseasoned asparagus they served me. I ended up over seasoning it. The restaurant is pretty small so I can see why you would need reservations. We showed up before they opened on a Sunday and were seated us away without the reservation, but I wouldn't try that on a Saturday or later in the evening! They did have an amazing cook on the scallops and the filet mignon, so I would definitely come back and would love to try some more things because all the plates that the servers were bringing out looked absolutely amazing. If they would season their veggies and turn up some lights I would give them five stars! read more

I think the service just gets worse and worse every time I come here. The food is not standout. I think if you're looking for something with a nice ambiance, this place will be OK for a local option in corona. The second time I came here, I didn't even get napkins for the table. The server never came back to check on us after the initial order. I had to walk inside to request napkins. Also, if you come after their initial morning or afternoon rush, they welcome you with displeasure, almost shocked that you would choose to grace the establishment past 12. Thankfully I just wanted a drink, but I was floored to see them look at me. I got several states snd only one person said hello and offered service. One guy was setting the tables and looked at me with the worst face. The same one who flickered the lights the first time I was there. Honestly so rude and I hope they train their staff on service. It's really not the best here. After three visits I probably won't be coming back again for a while. The only standout thing is their banana latte. Food is mediocre and service is underwhelming. read more

The food was missing a lot of different ingredients across different orders, service was horrific, some of the order was missing, we ordered some whiskey and were given cognac. Too Expensive for what you get. The restaurant itself looked nice. read more

It was my first time here for my birthday & I'm so glad I was brought here! The staff was extremely friendly , went on a week day for breakfast/ brunch. The ambiance was nice, dimmed lights and a great layout and decor. I had a bite of my friends breakfast empanadas - they were to DIE FOR. The sauces with them were delish too! I would honestly go back just for those. My main dish was the chilaquiles with the tamatillo sauce & it was a 10/10! The chips are for sure made in house along with the sauce. I also had a side of chipotle sauce and it was creamy and delicious! I asked for 1/2 and 1/2 sauce wise, but was told they could only be on the side which was fine. The SKIRT STEAK WAS ABSOLUTELY DEVINE and I am craving it every second I don't have it. It was literally PERFECT and the best I've ever had!!! Only complaint is service time. The food came out quick, however , our waitress took awhile to check on us the entire visit so we had to flag staff down I'll be back read more

Ambiance-decor and building are beautiful The noise levels were LOUD inside and difficult to have a conversation. The restroom sign is very hard to locate and see visually it blends in with the walls. The hostess experience was poor. Acted as if not having a reservation was an inconvenience. The temperature inside was very warm and uncomfortable. The water they served was not tasty or refreshing. They serve sodas by bringing you a can, which doesn't feel classy or like a service experience. The food was delicious but the bread was already soggy when we received our steak sandwich. Overall, the food was good, but we will not be back. It was expensive and uncomfortable. It wouldn't be worth ordering food to go since it was already soggy even dining in. read more

Don't even bother. This place is a steak house with pretty make up. Nothing special about the service or food. The decor was nice and the restaurant smelled good. There are some touches of luxury but the customer service and food were not apart of that package. I've been waiting to try this place for at least 4 months and I was really disappointed, I wanted to like this place so bad. Also don't get me wrong the food was good but you want it to be great when the prices are that high. I ordered the queso fundido it was good but again not great. I also had the filet mignon the sides were mashed potatoes and broccolinni. It was cooked the way I wanted and it was good but I am expecting great because of the price and luxury appeal they are trying to promote. My waiter checked on me 5 times with a minute break in between each check in and it was right when he dropped the plate off. As soon as I actually needed something we were ignored for half an hour with no drink no anything. We ordered another drink and he only brought one and forgot the other. It was my girls birthday and it was just really disappointing. I can go on and on but to summarize I will not be back. Not worth it at all. This place is overhyped and overpriced. read more

Visited today for the first time with a party of 7 for a birthday celebration. I everything was perfect! Parking- plenty right out front Ambiance- the restaurant is very cute and trendy. We were able to enjoy a pot out at the patio. Service- the staff was very attentive from the busser to food runners to main wait staff. No complaints! Food- very tasty! And large portions. I tried the savory empanadas which were so delish. My veggie omelette with potatoes was 9/10. Drinks- the serve Mexican Pepsi which is always yummy and the spicy Bloody Mary was on point. I ordered two! read more

The ambiance was nice, Industrial Chic with nice mood lighting and greenery. Their scent (air freshener) is amazing! I had the chicken and waffles, which was delicious! My son had the burger. It was a bit on the spicy side. He should have ordered the sauce on the side. Our server was warm and friendly. The restroom needs some dusting, but was clean ( which is why a 4 and not a 5). I want to go back for dinner. read more

Came here for a Sunday brunch after a graduation celebration. To say the service wasn't great is an understatement, and honestly, it's not the best place for families. During our meal, the drink waitress accidentally dropped two full drinks all over my 4-year-old niece. It was a literal waterfall pouring over her. Her dress was completely drenched, and she was covered in drinks and ice. Her mom also had coffee spilled all over her dress and shoes. Thankfully, we had extra clothes in the car, but it was still a pretty upsetting experience -- especially for a child. Our main waiter did come over and offered 20% off the meals and 3 free desserts for our party of 11. We appreciated that gesture, and the waitress herself seemed genuinely apologetic. We understand accidents happen. However, when we asked to speak with the manager, his response completely changed the tone of the experience. He didn't seem apologetic at all. We explained that we didn't feel 20% off was enough considering what happened, and he responded with, "I don't know how two people getting drinks on them means you all get free meals." I understand that expecting the entire tab to be covered may have been a stretch, but the issue was more about the lack of empathy and customer service. Dining out is about the overall experience, and his tone made the situation worse. He could have simply offered another solution or responded with more understanding. After that interaction, the service noticeably declined. Staff rarely checked on our table, while the manager continued warmly interacting with other guests nearby. The reason I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1 is because the food itself was actually very good. Unfortunately, the overall experience overshadowed it. read more

Blackstone Kitchen absolutely deserves all five stars! We had the chilaquiles and the French toast, and both were excellent. We also tried the empanadas and the little concha, everything was fresh, flavorful, and seriously delicious. The service was awesome from start to finish, and the ambiance made the whole experience even better. Definitely a spot worth coming back to! read more

The food was absolutely delicious! As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted since we were the first guests there. We had reservations for 5:15, and our waitress was incredibly kind and attentive. We ordered the 16 oz. ribeye steak, and wow--it practically melted in your mouth! The French fries tasted fresh and homemade, not frozen at all. The mashed potatoes is real potato, not powdery ! love. The horchata is so good, can't go wrong w horchata. I will say it felt a little awkward at first because we were the only ones in the restaurant, so it was very quiet. But as more people arrived, the atmosphere really came to life. The soft, soothing music gave off elegant wedding reception vibes, making the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and I'd definitely come back! read more

Food was appetizing; nicely presented. Cocktails was on point. Great atmosphere for a lunch with family and friends.

Went for brunch on Sunday and everything was delicious from the soft conchas served on the side to the main meals, everything was really good. We have 2 of their iced lattes which were a perfect in flavor. Ordered their French toast and it was so airy and toasty on edges and it paired nicely with the mascarpone cream. Also had their chicken chilaquiles in chipotle sauce, which could use a bit of spice but overall really good. To complete our brunch we order 2 of their cocktails and their were strong and delicious. Will definitely be coming back. read more

I'm really disappointed with the service we received during our recent visit. We came in to celebrate a birthday, expecting at least a decent dining experience, but it fell far short. From the start, our waiter never introduced himself, which immediately set an impersonal tone. Throughout the meal, he barely checked on our table--no follow-ups to see if we needed anything, refills, or even another round of drinks. We felt completely overlooked. When it came time to pay, the situation got worse. The waiter was extremely rude and unaccommodating when we asked to split the check, making what should have been a simple request feel like an inconvenience. To top it off, despite clearly celebrating a birthday, there was no effort made to acknowledge it. Instead, we were told, "You can pay for a dessert and I can put a candle on it," which felt dismissive and took away from what was supposed to be a special occasion. On top of the service issues, our food took an unusually long time to arrive, adding to the overall frustration. Overall, the lack of attentiveness, poor attitude, and slow service made for a very disappointing experience. Server's name was Jesus read more

Came here for brunch with a close friend. It was very nice inside and everyone was really friendly. I got the spaghetti pancakes which were a bit dry but the fruit and Nutella side was delicious. The interior is pretty dark so its good for late night dinner dates, especially if your looking for something more upscale but still affordable. They even had a hanging stand for us to put our purses on near the table, definitely a bonus for the girls! read more

I've only come for brunch, so this review is for that. A little on the pricier side, but it matches the ambiance of the restaurant being just a bit nicer inside. Cute purse racks at some of the tables, and the food was all good. Had to take some to go! Probably great portions to share things if your party/partners like to do that. Service was pretty prompt at the beginning, and a little slower at the end. Not sure if it was just because our server was on break so someone was covering him or if it just started getting busier. Not a huge deal, this is probably a restaurant you'd expect to spend some time at anyway. read more

We had a great experience this past Saturday night September 19th 6pm party of 6 until we received the check and not realizing the gratuity was included in gave her a $60.00 tip so in reality she got a $100.00 total tip. Ok the menu did read 20% will be added for 6 or more people but this was noted under the dinner sides so I didn't notice it. The server could have said to me the tip was included but didn't and kept it. Note... left a message for the manager 10 minutes after I left but he or she didn't have the decency to call me back.
