Michelle & I had toured the big town of Belmont and decided on here for an early Wednesday dinner at 5p. Ashley was our server and she was great! We each had the Wedge salad and I added the mahi mahi. Michelle had the wedge salad also and the mahi mahi entree! She raved about it! I liked the menu and the ambience of the place, it felt very comfortable though it was just a little on the dark side. There is no parking garage, only street parking which is very very dangerous on MAIN street! Not a great option the parallel park either. It wasn't busy but the seating hostess set a group of four very LOUD guys right behind us and we had to raise our voices to talk and be heard. We liked it overall and will certainly return read more

We went on a week day and basically had the restaurant to ourselves. There was probably 1 other couple there. The restaurant was neat and clean and quiet. We had the steak Diane and a ribeye. They were both cooked perfectly. The steak Diane usually has a thicker sauce, but this one was thin and it was okay. I do wish some of the family sized sides came individually. Our server was super nice and helpful when we had questions about the menu. She suggested the cinnamon rolls for dessert and they did not disappoint. read more

If I had to rank the steaks solo - 5 stars. They were amazing. Everything else? Well, it all fell short. Came to celebrate my husband's birthday, and chose Old Stone because it had a kid's menu and we want a "family friendly fancy" environment. Our server was just, eh. In a way he seemed bothered to have a table. Chalked it up as maybe a bad night, but it didn't enhance our experience. We ordered the pork belly appetizer, and the pork belly itself was burnt and the peaches were mushy - almost baby food texture. A miss for us. The steaks, again, amazing, perfectly cooked - even my daughter's steak tips. The sides however, another miss. The kids fries were mushy, and tasted like they had been sitting out a while. My husband's mashed potatoes tasted like they were instant/from a box and lacked the bright white color or fluffy texture. My wedge salad was drenched in dressing, and the dressing itself was runny. It certainly wasn't what I anticipated for a steakhouse wedge. It seemed like a rushed after thought. The other part that was a letdown - every single plate we were handed was broken. Every single one. When you're paying steakhouse prices, I'd like to see presentable plates. One, sure I could see it slipped by, but every one? That's just laziness on replacing them in my opinion. I'll say it a third time, steaks were delicious...but the rest, well it was just lacking, and not sure the steaks hold their own to justify another trip. read more

Old Stone Steakhouse is a great choice in the bustling downtown of Belmont. Be careful not to walk right past the door when you arrive! Old Stone Steakhouse has big menu with several delectable options. Our group started dinner with the fried pickle chips and skillet dinner rolls. Both were great. The pickle chips were not overly breaded, so the flavor was primarily the tangy pickle. The garlic butter made the warm rolls even more delicious. At our table, the ribeye with mashed potatoes, the New York strip with a baked potato, and the southern-style chopped steak with mashed potatoes were ordered. Everyone was extremely pleased with the portion, taste and quality of the meat. We ordered a vanilla creme brulee for dessert, and that was the star of the meal! The restaurant is intimate and buzzing with conversation. The service was prompt and friendly. read more

Get the crab dip you won't be disappointed. I can make a meal out of that. Their wedge salads are great and their steaks are delicious. The restaurant itself is a decent size and has outdoor seating if you want. The service has always been top notch when my family has gone. read more

Everything was wonderful! The cinnamon roll skillet for dessert was insane! Filet was cooked perfectly as ordered, all Of our food was great! read more

Last week during Queens Feast/Restaurant week we decided to give Old Stone a try. The restaurant itself is in quaint Belmont and the exterior and interior is very nice. When we walked in there wasn't anyone at the host desk, when the male host arrived he was abrupt and maybe not rude, but was definitely not welcoming and it didn't set the tone well for the meal. Our server was ok, but if you are in a service role and work for tips, I think you should be pretty dang outgoing and friendly, he was not. Also, we kept having to ask for refills, when you are dining at a nicer restaurant and your glass is half empty, just refill it and don't make the customer wait until it is dry and asking for more tea. We ordered from the Queens Feast menu, which I would think the restaurant would consider their best and tastier food. We did add an order of the dinner bread, it has parm on top and I think they should stop adding the parm. The bread was killer by itself! The parm didn't really melt well or adhere to the rolls and was just not great/greasy. 86 the parm and it will be better! We had a crab cake and the goat cheese appetizer. The crab cake was flavorful and pretty good, the goat cheese was very lacking. It needed some nuts and a dried fruit with it and honey or something like that. It was just goat cheese and pita basically, very one dimensional and not great. The meal came with salads and we tried a Cesar and wedge, Cesar was good and the wedge was ok, but the dressing on the wedge was like straight buttermilk. For our main dish I had a filet with baked potato and it was quite good. My wife had the chicken with an Asiago sauce and that was the toughest most overcooked chicken we have probably ever had in a nicer restaurant. That chicken had been cooked way way way too long! Overall the meal was lacking and this restaurant does not warrant another visit. When your meal is well over $100 you expect a little refinement, good service, and tasty ingredients. They didn't deliver. To those about to dine, don't waste your time. Skip it. You can get a steak at a chain restaurant just as good and probably cheaper. Along with better chicken options and maybe nicer staff! read more

Ordered the 14 oz strip steak. A least 25% was inedible gristle. The flavor was good - prepared medium with standard seasoning. Also had the shrimp cocktail appetizer. Eight shrimp were small to medium size, boiled, chilled, peeled and deveined with decent flavor. Salad was very good house wedge with bleu cheese dressing. No complimentary fresh baked bread was disappointing for menu price point. Service was very good. read more

This was our first time going here and it was such a great experience! Our server was very knowledgeable about all the menu items and she was very attentive! There were so many apps that I wanted to try and they are all very nicely priced. I ordered the Caesar (which was great), my mom ordered the blue cheese wedge salad (sooo good! It had balsamic dressing) and then my father got the goat cheese field salad (also yummy). We ordered a few sides because the portions are large to share which is nice! We got the pasta salad and the cheddar grits! Both were great! I ordered the filet and I highly recommend the horseradish goat cheese topping!! They make their desserts as well and they're amazing. The ambiance is nice, feels like an old house that they renovated to a steakhouse. read more

Best steak ever! We went for a birthday celebration months ago and have not stopped talking about it since.

I typically cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. The service is always impeccable, however tonight a couple people in our group ordered the prime rib and it was so very tough! Not the quality we were use to. A bit disappointing to say the very least. read more

I don't understand some of these negative reviews because our dinner was incredible. Sat at the bar with Justin, who started us off with perfect martinis. Wedge salad was delicious and enjoyed the balsamic twist to the traditional. Filet was expertly cooked medium rare as was the crisp, fresh and jumbo asparagus side dish with red peppers. Au gratin were hands down better than any of the corporate chain steak houses as was the classic chocolate cake. Justin sold us a very nice bottle of Russian River Pinot Noir and while busy behind the small bar, provided us excellent service. read more

Everything always goes well there! Need to say no more. Great food, people and experience.

I had not been to Old Stone for a couple years, but relying on our previous good experience, we invited out of town guest to join us there. I was very disappointed by this second visit. The young server was friendly and seemed to want to do a good job, but the food was far from great. My upgraded wedge salad was a large slimy pile of blue cheese and I guess balsamic vinegar, I am not sure, but it was way too much topping. I understood why the chef put so much topping on it when I dug out the salad and found it to be brown lettuce that shouldn't have been served. I couldn't eat it. When I didn't eat it and explained why to the server, she apologized, but tried to charge me for it anyway when the bill came. I don't understand this type of service. The steak we ordered wasn't cooked as our guests requested either, but tasted ok. I suggest management reevaluate their processes and make some improvements. I wish I could recommend Old Stone, but I can't. Disappointed. read more

All the food was really good and prepared well!! We were checked on often but not so much as it would be annoying. I'd definitely like to go back and try some more food!! Very good place to hang out with friends, family or a date. read more

This place was terrible! Hostess wasn't accommodating and had an attitude. The ambiance was ok, but it was a little warm and there were many flies flying . I'm not sure if a door was left open, but we were constantly swatting flies away from our food. I ordered a $36 8 oz filet. It was tasted like there were red peppers on it. It was so tough I could hardly cut it I felt like I was chewing gum. I sent it back. Also, only one side came with the steak...bread, salad , potato or vegetable. So $36 for steak and one of the above. Cheap! Really the only thing we liked was the waitress, Nicole. She sweet, helpful and really tried to make things better. read more

Had a reservation and was seated 15 mins after. Expected it to be the Queens Feast menu and it was the regular menu. My house wedge salad came out w/the appetizers so only had a bite of the fried pickles and a bacon wrapped scallop. The creamed herb ranch dressing had absolutely no flavor. It was a typical wedge salad. The fried pickles had a light fry which is great. The breading had absolutely no flavor. Completely lacking. The bacon wrapped scallops again no taste from the bacon or the scallop absorbing some bacon nope only the sauce on the plate could be tasted. Had a cheddar burger. Again where was the cheese? It was on the burger but again nada on the flavor. Lotsa mustard though like a lot of what tasted like French's yellow mustard which overpowered the taste of the meat. Speaking of the cook, medium it was not def medium well. So instead of a little pink absolutely none. The best part of the whole meal was the sweet potato fries that were brought to us by accident. They were lightly fried and tasted as you'd expect. The ambiance is a standard pub style. Nothing really special to recommend it. Glad to have gone and checked it off the list. Not sure we'll be back given the utter lack of any type of taste of anything. Belmont has other great offerings read more

First and foremost our server was the best! Kirsten M! I had been searching for prime rib everywhere and nobody had it. It was awesome!

I've spent the last 25 years traveling across America, Europe and Asia for business and have tasted fine cuisine everywhere. Little did I know that the most flavorful steaks and seafood was right in my backyard! Wow! We had a large party so we ordered a variety of entrees and appetizers. Every morsel was an explosion of flavor with exquisite presentation. My compliments to the owner, manager, wait staff and everyone involved that made this evening so magical! My daughter is a social influencer with 3 million instagram followers. She's paid to go to exotic places and comment on the venue and cuisine. She was blown away! read more

Husband and I came here for a date night. We were seated in the covered patio outside and it was good coverage from the light rain that had begun. It was also maintained well to still provide a nice ambience of lighting and music. The service was great; prompt and friendly. The food was okay, though. I ordered the crab cakes with a side of sweet potato fries, and my husband ordered a steak, Wellington style with steamed broccoli. The crab cakes were a good size and placed on top of a white wine reduction sauce (or so it tasted like to me), sprinkled with some lightly cooked cherry tomatoes. I've never been a fan of wine sauces, but the crab cake with a tomato on top wasn't bad. I did appreciate the mildly sweet juice it provided to my bites. The sweet potato fries were prepared perfectly. Even my husband liked them, and he doesn't care much for sweet potato. Husband said the steak was okay, underwhelming. It was a nice spot for a much needed date night, and we appreciated the service, but we aren't in a hurry to return. read more

I recently had dinner here with a friend. I had the Blue Cheese Wedge Salad for an appetizer. Then followed up by the Grilled Salmon with Succotash.

We had my daughter's Rehearsal Dinner at Old Stone Steakhouse last fall (2023). We were seated on the side covered porch. It was the perfect setting for such an occasion, and we could have not been more impressed! The food was delicious, the variety of beer and wine was delightful, and the servers top-notch! We all ordered a variety of dishes and everyone was sated. Appetizers ordered were bacon-wrapped scallops, crab cakes, and my favorite , baked pimento crostinis. Our salads were the blue cheese wedge, bruschetta, and my choice, the Caesar. The entrees ranged from the filet, the sirloin, salmon, burgers, and my favorite, the baby-back ribs. Do yourself a favor and visit the Old Stone! read more

Came in for #queensfeast because they had a great 3-course menu offering. ⁣ The bacon-wrapped scallops drizzled in house-made Cheerwine bbq-sauce and NY-strip steak covered w/bacon bits and bleu cheese + a salad for $35 may seem like a steal, but don't worry #oldstonesteakhouse is in the old Belmont police station!⁣ ⁣ You can get a little nostalgic small-town history with your dinner here. There's info on the historic building or your server/bartender is happy to share. If the dining room is full, no problem! Full menu service is available at the bar, which is where I ate and had quick and friendly service. Paired wines w/each course from their decent wine-list and enjoyed my selections & pairings. read more

We dined in Old Stone 3 times in the past 5 months and enjoyed our first 2 visits there but not the 3rd. So I am giving 3 stars based on 3 visits even though last visit could only be 2 stars. Our waiter seemed pretty distracted from the very beginning. As a result I got the wrong drink and had to send it back. We ordered the buffalo cauliflower bites as appetizer. They were tasty though I would prefer the cauliflower to be cut into smaller chunks (bite size). We waited longer than usual to get our entrees. When they eventually arrived, my salad was not the size I ordered and my husband's prime rib was almost rare (he ordered medium rare). Not sure if our waiter took the order wrong or the kitchen made it wrong. He opted to take the bloody piece home (for further cooking) instead of sending it back. Restaurant business has suffered more from labor shortage and inflation than most other businesses in the past year or 2. As a result, quality has declined noticeably. I probably should cook at home more instead of getting disappointed when dining out. read more

Servers were kind and food was out fast. Steak was good, fries were good too. we were seated outside, good vibes there.

I had always heard really good things about this restaurant, so I chose it for dinner before prom. I got the steak, because everyone said that I would love it so much, but it was very mid. The salad was fresh, but the ranch dressing had some weird tangy/spicy flavor that burned my lips and gave me heartburn. Just wasn't for me read more

I live outside of the area but remember their billboards. Nice place, just chilly. Dinner was steaks for two of us. Wife enjoyed her filet and mine was the same.

If not for the Oscar and chill dinning hall, they might haven gotten a 4. read more

Took my daughter there last night for her 21st Birthday . Had a wonderful time. Started with a cocktail next door at the Jailhouse, then to Old Stone for dinner. We started with calamari, and against my better judgment we ordered the scallop feature dinner as our apps. Now, I was gonna get the 10 bacon wrapped scallop app but my daughter wanted the burblanc so we went with the special. The app was $34. and came with 10, the special was $36 or $38 and came with 4, and they weren't really that JUMBO. But whatever, no big deal. My daughter and my girlfriend both got the filet and both loved it. My daughter's boyfriend went with the Strip and said it was great. I ordered the prime rib and it was amazing. We also ordered the larger lobster dinner for the table to split and unfortunately it was very salty. I don't think salting seafood is a great idea. We also got the potatoes au gratin for the table. Now, although I have mentioned 2 things that weren't my fav, we had a tremendous dinner and enjoyed our evening together very much. All in all I can't suggest this place enough. It is fantastic. Now, I do apologize however I can't remember our servers name but she was very present as well and I thank her for a wonderful evening. See you soon . read more

Belmont has some unique places and has grown over the years, which I love! Old Stone was one of the first newer restaurants a few years ago, and got in before the growth exploded, and I enjoyed it very much. My first visit was definitely years ago and I loved it, great service and food. With that said my most recent visit, with friends, was just okay. Yes, they offer a great menu and service is good, it just didn't blow my mind. I was hoping for a better experience. I will say if I am in Belmont and looking for a steak, and may have been to Sammy's (Ha Ha) I would give them another try. read more
