My husband made reservation for us for my birthday last week. I've always enjoyed our dinners here and like the cozy ambiance of the restaurant. It's also usually quiet which we also like. He requested that we have a table near the fireplace for the romantic aspect, plus I'm anemic so it's always nice to be placed directly near a heat source. When the reservation was made he mentioned it was my birthday as he was under the impression they do something special and the girl noted it and unfortunately she said they couldn't guarantee that table. We arrived 20 minutes prior to the reservation time and he was happy that the table was available and obviously I was too. Our server was VERY attentive the duration of dinner and the food was also delicious. I was disappointed to find out that they still don't have a blender to make frozen drinks which is a bit odd for a restaurant of their sorts. We had ordered the steak rolls, soup, coffee curated filet and prime rib dip along with several different sides. I highly recommend the coffee curated filet which is delectable and also the macaroni and cheese side which is baked with Gouda. In the future I would definitely skip out on the French fries (came with my husbands sandwich) as they are average and the greasy steak rolls. At the time I didn't know, but my husband was a bit upset that they didn't do anything special for my birthday, as he was under the impression they did. read more

I love this steakhouse. I have been here on multiple occasions and have enjoyed it each time. Today I was with two other ladies and we really enjoyed the food. I had the New York strip with the garlic mashed potatoes , the spinach dip for apps, and got the creme brûlée to go. Our server was very accommodating to my group's needs tonight. I can't wait to come back read more

Food was good and plentiful. Maybe a bit too plentiful. I ordered a tomato salad appetizer that was so large I almost couldn't eat my main meal. The one issue we had was the various wait staff constantly trying to clear the table even though we were not finished eating. One actually took our bread plates before we even had time to have the fry bread they had given us. This points to improper management. I understand the need to move people in and out of the restaurant but that is going a bit far. read more

The food was dry and plain and the steak was burnt but they still gave it to us and we got crab cakes but it was raw

Pretty average streakhouse. Have had some good seafood here though. Atmosphere is good. Bartenders are great. However the wait and wait staff is what brings the overall experience down. Long wait times and slow service, hence why I go to the bar. Easy place to go for lunch or while on a shopping trip since I'm Towson mall. read more

Best meal in a long time. Fine dining at its best! Highly recommend! Great service staff. Most importantly are the delicious beignet type rolls! read more

Stoney River - Divine carrot cake dessert - Steakhouses Near Me - Towson, Maryland

I was here for happy hour... Fantastic specials... A glass of wine and a burger for 11 bucks!! can't beat that! I also recommended here for my department's holiday celebration party and it was very, very well received. It's a chain but a very pleasant hidden gem. read more

This was my third trip to Stoney River steaks and I was very excited about going back. I even brought nine other people with me and I was looking forward to a great evening and good food. Unfortunately we had a terrible experience as soon as we entered the restaurant. Starting with the drink orders, the waiter couldn't seem to get it right. Spilling water on two out of the 10 people, the night just seem to go downhill. It took a very long time for our entrees to come and when they did, many of our entrées were not cooked as ordered. Some were very undercooked and other entrées were just plain cold. To the restaurants credit they did comp the bill due to the poor service and quality of food. Other guests that were in the restaurant that night expressed a great time but it appears we just had bad luck. Based upon my first two experiences and the actions of the restaurant manager making it right, I will surely give it another try. read more

Riddle: What has two thumbs, visits a steakhouse, but doesn't order a steak? Answer: This girl! (and her dude) Visited on a Saturday evening with the dude.(Reservations recommended.) Here's what we ordered and how we liked it: Crabcake appetizer- Lump crab meat, mustard sauce and fresh mango salsa- not as "lumpy" as one might expect, but the dude enjoyed it. Baby Kale Salad Kale with toasted almonds and dried cranberries tossed in an herb vinaigrette- very good, but slightly overdressed. So much so, that I could finish it. Veggie Burger- made in-house, topped with Monterey Jack, served on a seeded, toasted brioche bun with shoestring fries. Very juicy and delicious, slightly sweet with a bit of bite. To me, this was the star of the meal. Grilled Scottish Salmon- Szechuan style, served with jasmine rice and sautéed spinach. Looked good. The dude had no complaints. This is definitely on our list of go-to places to grab a bite in Towson. read more

Went to this restaurant for the first time with a very large party. My waitress was very sweet, patient and accommodating to us. Although there were a lot of us she made sure to take each order with attentiveness working with others substitutions. The food was good, had a veggie burger and I highly recommend only reason the place didn't get 5 stars was because my fries were ice cold. Thank you so much for the great service. P.s. you can go on your diet next week. Get the carrot cake read more

This is probably one of them best restaurants in Towson mall. Either your just looking for a romantic dinner or just want to sit at the bar and eat you still will feel how awesome it is. They do have a fire place inside I never got s chance to sit near it tho. I have been here a few times and one time was with s large party and it's the perfect place for a celebration. I will say weekends are their busiest days as most restaurants are and the wait sometimes are long. They have a bar area that don't require a wait which is my go to. Customer service is always awesome. They do not offer take out menu on the weekend because it's so busy. Now to the food, my favorite appetizer is the Whiskey shrimp it's like heaven on earth. My favorite drink is the Lemon drop mojito and it's a toss up for my favorite entree I love the ribs and I also the the Chicken tenders. The portions are a good size I always have enough for the next day. For parking of course the have the mall valet and they have the garage. read more

Came here with my parents for my mom's birthday on a Sunday night. We were pleased with the warm atmosphere and quick seating. Our waiter was very personal and attentive. We ordered the steak rolls and ahi tuna roll. The steak rolls were delicious. The ahi roll, which our waiter said was amazing, turned out to be very bland. For our entrées we ordered the coffee cured filet, the lodge filet, and the steak and fries. My dad loved his steak and fries. When my mom and I bit into our steaks we realized something was off. My lodge filet had a very bold flavor with some caramelized crust (not to mention slightly overcooked) and my mom's "coffee-cured filet" had almost no flavor at all. We then realized they must have prepared the opposite steaks. Our waiter quickly returned our steaks to the kitchen and apologized for the inconvenience. The manager then came up to send his condolences. We mentioned we were there to celebrate a birthday and he offered to buy my mom a dessert. But then he began to ARGUE with us about our steak preparation. Little did this guy know, I have a couple a years of culinary training under my belt and know a thing or two about food preparation. When we received our second attempt of filets, I was pleased with mine but my mom's was ICE COLD. At that point we cut our losses and considered this place less than "legendary". At the end of service our waiter brought a dessert menu over. My mom ordered her complimentary blondie and before anyone else could say anything, the waiter snatched the menu to put the order in and run our check. He returned with our receipt and we explained that we wanted to order additional desserts. However, I was just ready to snack on the sweet freedom of getting the f--- out of there. So for the price point, this place is the Kardashian of restaurants: somewhat aesthetically pleasing, but full of cruel intentions and disappointment. *rant over read more

Went yesterday for my boyfriend's birthday. We went at 2:00, and the place was empty. Our food was fantastic. I got the 7 oz center cut filet oscar style, cooked medium rare with a loaded baked potato. He got the Bone-in Cowboy but Rib-eye, also cooked medium well with garlic mashed potatoes. Both steaks were cooked well (mine was perfect, his was a little over, but not too much), and the baked potato was one of the biggest I've ever seen. The garlic mashed were just okay, nothing to write home about. Our service on the other hand was just sub-par. You could tell she was aggravated that we did not order appetizers, or alcoholic drinks. I don't even think she told us her name. She checked on us only once after we got our food, before she haphazardly threw the dessert menu on the table to ask if we wanted anything. Like I said, it was his birthday, and his 30th, so it was a big deal. If she would have been a better server, we would have ordered dessert. Instead we left and went somewhere else, so we would feel comfortable eating our dessert and celebrating his birthday. I know we probably came at the end of her shift, but we spent a decent amount of money, and don't deserve to be treated like we are an annoyance. If the rating was 100% based on food, I would easily give this place 4 stars. I also the bartender come out and take a table in the dining room before we left. I wish I knew his name, because he seemed amazing. I would of loved to have him as my server instead. Guess next time we will be sitting at the bar, maybe that would make the experience better. read more

ABSOLUTE WORST.... The last time we dined here was approx 5 1/2 years ago. We decided to give it a try, thinking this place couldn't still be bad. Waiter this visit, very nice. He did not cook the food. My Bone in ribeye, I ordered it super duper rare.. My steak was close toooo medium... I do not know how a place that fancies itself a "upscale" steak house can mess up again. A manager came over and offered to have another steak made. I said, no thank you. My wife and daughter ate their food. Their food came out ok.. This same manager gave me a card for $50 off a next visit. Not a damn chance we will be back. read more

It's always a pleasure at the Grill. I will admit, I tend to go during the week around 1:00pm to 5:00pm. But when I do the atmosphere is always right. Try the STEAK ROLLS and a KETTLE ONE MARTINI! read more

Stoney River - Comfortable and relaxing. - Steakhouses Near Me - Towson, Maryland

This is a nice, cozy restaurant located in Towson mall. The service was great and the food was pretty good! I had the pecan crusted trout which was coated just right with the amount of pecans, it could've used a bit more flavor or sauce but it was cooked very nicely. The portion was huge too. We got the blonde dessert, which was SO GOOD. The blonde comes out in a skillet so it's nice and warm, it has that crunchy border and then the chewier center. It's also topped with ice cream! Yum. Would definitely go back to this restaurant for a special occasion (pretty pricey). read more

Stoney River - Yummm! - Steakhouses Near Me - Towson, Maryland

I pulled up solo at the bar from a nice post-mall-surge steak. I was greeted by very friendly bartender/server and treated very well. They even let me charge my iPhone behind the bar during my meal. Great atmosphere - classy, relaxed, friendly. I ordered the 14 oz. rib-eye with broccoli for the complimentary side. The steak was absolutely delicious - melted in the mouth. I've learned from tons of business travel that you pay for what you get when you buy a Rib-Eye steak, or any other reputable cut. A lot of their sides also looks delicious, but I was keepin it carb-light. I also tried two glasses of their assorted red wine (Cab and Malbec), and the serving sizes were ample. I would highly recommend this place to anyone in the area. Great spot for a great steak. read more

I was treated to dinner at Stoney River in Towson to celebrate my recent graduation. The restaurant was much nicer than I expected... the service, ambiance, and food! I had the coffee-cured steak, which was fantastic. It did not taste like coffee at all, but had a caramelized coating over the most tender and delicious steak. It was so good, I ended up eating all of it; but I really could have taken half home because the portions were generous, and the dessert was so good (and huge). The staff was so nice that all of them signed a congratulations card and gave it to me to celebrate my graduation... it was such a nice touch! read more

Stoney River - Steakhouses Near Me - Towson, Maryland

Must go into restaurant to pay via gift card. To go pick up is at the bar where people are understandably sitting without masks on. Stoney River needs to rethink to go pick up location as it puts their customers at risk. Steaks were cooked to temperature but one of our sides was incorrect. A bit disappointing. Caesar salad was excellent as always. read more

My husband and I love this restaurant! We always sit by the fireplace and we always get the Steak and Fries but substitute for a loaded baked potato. This plate never lets us down, its always delicious with the garlic butter on top! We also always get the deviled egg appetizer, and they are delicious with the candied bacon. Always great service. A five star rating well deserved. read more

My wife and I shared a large spinach salad with a warm dressing. Egg slices, mushrooms, and bacon bits were nice added elements. Then we had crab cakes, and the coffee filet. The crab cakes were large, had god flavor, and little filler. They came with a tartar sauce that had slightly sweet chopped pickle, and not too much mayo. I usually don't add tartar to my crab cake, but a little enhanced the flavor. And of course fresh lemon completed the dish. We were both surprised how good the coffee filet was! They got that caramelized crust to the meat just right, and added a nicely balanced lemon butter sauce. Kudos to Kristin for recommending us the dish!!! A slice of peanut butter pie completed a very satisfying meal. It is always nice to have another destination we can trust with our tummies ;) read more

My wife and I were able to find a seat at the bar tables on a busy Saturday. Her lobster bisque soup was well enjoyed. The dinner rolls are also very good here. However, when our entrees came out my coffee cured steak filet, which was ordered medium, came out well done and very dried and somewhat cold. The side of green beans were also barely cooked. For a restaurant that specializes in steak, to mess up the steak is absolutely ridiculous. I would recommend sticking with the sandwiches as they seem to be more consistent with their delivery. read more

Was very happy with the coffee steak, it was expertly cooked and the seasoning was great. Nice spot right at the mall. read more

Was at Stoney River on 2/18/19 to celebrate a friend's birthday. There was no wait and we were immediately seated. Our orders came out promptly and the portions were remarkable. I haven't been to Stoney River in a long time but we were quite pleased and plan to return. read more

This was the best dinner we have had in a while!!! The cheesesteak egg rolls were the best I have EVER tasted and the lobster bisque was out of this world. The NY strip was cooked perfected and the homemade sauce on top was fantastic. The service was top notch and our waiter, Donovan, took great care of us, even replacing my wife's napkin with a new one when she got up to use the restroom. We will be back!!! read more

Terrible service, non responsive...ended up leaving. Insisted on seeing an ID, to get a drink, I'm in my late 50's.

First visit here. Interesting experience. Good food, good service and good atmosphere, but got carded! I'm 64 years old and was quite taken aback. Was told that this is a company policy in cooperation with police department due to "trouble in the area". Sorry to say will not be back. Stupid policy and stupid explanation. We even saw an 80 year old man get carded. read more

We have been to this restaurant about 3 times within the last month, most recently this past weekend, and each experience has been great. The atmosphere/ambiance is so warm and welcoming with very kind and accommodating staff. The manager, Char, is absolutely amazing. Always visible on the floor, assisting where needed, greeting diners, and taking time to engage in conversation even when she is very busy! I spoke highly of her and our dining experiences to Adam, the GM, who was very happy to hear that we noticed their efforts to improving this location and make it pleasant for everyone. The steak egg rolls are delish and one of my favs. We haven't had anything we didn't like and I look forward to going back soon! read more

The food I always speak highly off totally worth the money, my server was nice, polite, but a little slow. the part I am a little upset about (Bc it's pricy) the past 2 times I have been there when they ask to take our food to put it in the box's and when I get home only half of my food is in the boxes. Like I had a half steak and all my sides to get home to only my steak read more

Great bread-poppy seed donut holes with whipped lavender butter. Interesting decor. Nice staff.

Went to Stoney River today- great restaurant. The steaks are great, and the wait was not too long. It was a little busy for the middle of the week, but I can understand why. The cakes are awesome, but they are stuffed with calories lol read more
