    12oz NY strip & potato
    Jacob B.

    Wow I was really shocked by this one. So underwhelming for the good reviews on both Google and Yelp. First off the restaurant was poorly lit and had blinding white Edison bulbs hanging over some tables. Traveling today and stopped in Elkins for dinner, we waited about 10-15 minutes before a host or server brought us to a table, even longer to get the drinks. I ordered ribbon fries and they were out of quaso, so they were dry and bland. My partner got fajitas (his was cold and not seasoned) and I got a 12oz NY strip that was 30$. By far the worst 30$ steak I've ever had. First off it was closer to 7-8 oz, it was wet and lukewarm, and overcooked. It honestly tasted almost like it was microwaved it was so tough! It claimed to be 21 day dry aged, which is laughable. They also were out of potatoes, which left me with the twice baked potatoes which was just half a baked potato with some white cheese on it. My plantains were burnt, all around a less than ideal meal. Also the salad bar was missing half its item and had old wilted lettuce. I wouldn't recommend stopping here.

    El Toro, a Brazilian/Venezuelan Steakhouse, opened this past week in Elkins in the previous location of Duke's Steakhouse. Upon entering, you will find a hostess/cashier area where you will be greeted and seated. I couldn't help but appreciate the beautiful wooden floors and and booths separated by high bead board partitions, Latina artwork on the walls, upbeat music playing and what appears to be a future salad bar area. The entire restaurant and bar is clean and appealing. I placed a to go order of Chicken Tostones (green plantains) trio and Cameron's Al Ajillo (Shrimp w/garlic sauce) with selected sides of white rice and and fries plantains (sweet). As you can tell, I am a big fan of plantains lol. Service was professional and polite. Multiple staff upon seeing me near the counter came by to see if I needed anything while I waited. I learned that the manager had placed the wrong appetizer for my order but she caught it before bringing my order out and gave me that appetizer to try for free! The food looks, smells and tastes delicious. Care is definitely taken for presentation as well. I'd love a bit more quantity of the the appetizers for the price but it isn't a deal breaker, I will definitely be back. Kudos to the manager/owner and staff! Welcome to the area.

    Where do I even start with the Blue Stone Inn?…read more At first glance, well...you might glance away and keep on driving, because it seems like one of countless little restaurants you might pass as you're zooming down a highway, focused on work, family, vacation, or other concerns. In fact, there's a good chance even I had passed the restaurant on more than one occasion. But don't do that, it's a huge mistake! Because as I discovered recently, every meal you miss at Blue Stone Inn isn't just lost deliciousness, it's an opportunity gone forever to break bread with friends and family in the kind of space that makes you long for a world that no longer exists - familiar, welcoming, old school. The Blue Stone Inn isn't fancy. It's rustic. And please don't read that as a criticism, it isn't. It's definitely nice. I realized I was vibing hard, loving the atmosphere, the people, the vibe. Service was prompt and courteous with the familiar feel you only seem to get in smaller towns these days. And the food - OMG. Most of us started with a salad and the house bacon vinaigrette. And the breadbasket - so, so good, but don't fill up on it! Because all the food is To. Die. For. We then quickly moved on to various steaks. My ribeye was insanely delicious, cooked perfectly, with an excellent baked potato to round out the meal. My dining buddies upgraded to the steak-and-seafood combos, which were apparently also quite good. I skipped dessert - too much bread early on. But the delicate, beautiful, generous slices of cake my friends had ended the meal on a perfect note. Can't recommend Blue Stone Inn enough. Be aware that if you go, it seems there are some homeless cats in the parking lot and around the restaurant. Super friendly, I suggest bringing some treats for them. I had some cat food in the car so they got a little dinner as we were leaving. Enjoy!

    Stopped by Blue Stone Grill recently and had a pretty good experience overall. The atmosphere is…read morerelaxed and welcoming--great for a casual dinner or catching up with friends. It's got that classic local charm without trying too hard. Service was friendly, . Staff seemed genuinely kind. He told me he had worked there seventeen years! Food-wise, I ordered on the light side. The French Onion Soup was hot but lacked flavor. I also had a salad. It was well-portioned and fresh. I also ordered the shrimp cocktail and it was not edible. Shrimp were small and rubbery. The menu has a nice mix of comfort food and grill staples, and prices felt fair for the quality. Overall, Blue Stone Grill is a dependable choice in Harrisonburg. Not perfect, but worth a visit if you're looking for a laid-back meal with good vibes. Just don't order the shrimp cocktail.
