Visited on a busy Tuesday evening for a birthday celebration. Our server Heather was efficient and friendly. Appetizers (deviled eggs and spinach artichoke dip) were tasty but entrees (especially the Bistro Chicken) were only okay. Not worth the price. read more

3 stars just for the waitress. Very attentive and made some of the issues right. The spinach I didn't bring up since I was starving. Ice cold, bland deviled eggs. Literally taken out of the freezer before serving. Even colder cabernet. My Ice water was warm in comparison. Wine did not have a chance to open up at all. Steak arrived cold also. Cream spinach tasted sour. All in all mediocre... read more

The food and drinks were expensive, but were styled well. The deviled eggs sported candied bacon, but were otherwise unremarkable. The ahi tuna salad had an abundance of greens, but the four half dollar sized pieces of raw tuna weren't seared enough in the outside--gray color, not brown. The NOLA shrimp and rice were quite spicy, although the waitperson assured that it was not when asked. The pecan trout was mostly pecans. The carrot cake was enough for four people but tasteless. The creme brûlée had an excellent sugar crunch but was presented in a soup bowl. The restaurant was busy for a weeknight so the waitstaff were literally, running from one table to the next. One waitperson actually ran into me when I got up to put my coat on! The ambiance is very nice, dark except for the bar area. There is outdoor seating overlooking the parking lot. read more

Pathetic level of service, over cooked bland food with a very generic unfriendly atmosphere. Took a seat at the lounge rather than the table I reserved due to the long line waiting. 15 minutes before I was addressed by 1 of the 3 persons behind the bar. Water was fine, the "Draper" was not at all a proper Old Fashioned as expected. Had a very strange flavor not accustomed to with that classic cocktail. Specialty "steak & biscuits" was little more than Pillsbury frozen biscuits from a tube and the lowest cut of meat you could offer, over cooked and full of gristle. Not the Filet they describe. Bartender offered me A1 sauce because guests complained the meal was a bit dry. It was sad. Add 2 pounds of over cooked French Fries to mask the inadequacy of the rest of the meal and you get what I was served. No offer of ketchup, that may have helped. I ate about 20% and pushed it off to signal the clueless bar staff that I was done. 10 minutes later, they came and asked if I'd like it boxed up, no thank you. I asked for the check. 20 minutes later, I asked again. All the while, 3 rather a luff bar staff ignored me. Thanks, but no thanks. Stay clear unless you'd like to be disappointed. I was kind and left a $1.50 tip. .50 cents per person who gave no care in my existence as a customer, my meal which was horrible, and again my existence for me paying my bill. These chain restaurants are a shame, I like to support local businesses and this was definitely not that. Shame on me for picking such a lousy place, shame on them for surviving the pandemic and helping to put small businesses out of business. Do better please read more

Stoney River - Specialty menu? Nothing special at all here except the exit! - Steakhouses Near Me - Troy, Michigan

My sisters and I chose this restaurant for a belated birthday celebration. It was wonderful. The steak rolls as an appetizer were delicious. I ordered the bistro chicken - and it. was. amazing. The breading was perfect, the sauce was just right, there were plenty of capers...there wasn't a thing wrong with it. At the suggestion of my sister, I added the carmelized onion to my mashed potatoes - wow - she was right! Our server wasn't the warmest. As we were celebrating a birthday, it would have been nice if she had been a bit friendlier, but that didn't seem to be on the menu. Regardless, we had a wonderful meal. read more

I had lunch with a dear friend and her daughter here. The experience has is one that will keep me from returning there. The service and food was lackluster. It took us to inquire about the status of the order to receive it. It arrived at the table cold. Steaks were over cooked. I believe the server possibly was either let go or quit as she was viewed exiting the restaurant with a coat on. There was a period of time we sat at the table waiting for some sort of acknowledgment. I finally decided to seek assistance from a manager. We were told that there would be no charge for the meal. No apology nor an opportunity to rectify the issues was offered. read more

My husband and I like to eat out, and do so at least twice a week. Today, we decided to try a restaurant on the other side of town for us, Stoney River Steakhouse and Grill. We were not impressed, and will not be returning. The waiter was pleasant, but when I asked for his opinion on two of the dishes, all he could tell me is: 1) He does not like fish. (My first question was about the Salmon.) & 2) He had never tried the other dish - the Steak Au Poivre. I opted for the special of the evening, which was a Pecan Encrusted Trout, with a rice side dish and the vegetable of the evening, which the waiter told me was 'Like french cut green beans.' The vegetable turned out to be a cauliflower dish. Not beans at all! Thankfully I like cauliflower, so that was okay. The rice, however, tasted like something I can get in the frozen food section of the local supermarket. Pop it in the microwave, then put it on my plate. My plate cost $30. As for the fish, please see the pictures below. It tasted great, but my first bite had 4 or 5 bones in it, including the large one that looks like a wishbone on the bread plate. I found many more bones throughout the meal. I'm not even sure the fish was deboned! Look at the set of bones that were in the center of the fish, in the other picture. WOW! For $30, I expect the chef to know how to remove those bones before cooking!! We complained to the waiter. We did see him tell someone in the back about the bones in the fish. Did a manager even stop by? Did they try to throw in dessert, or comp our food in any way? No. And don't ever order an Arnold Palmer at this restaurant! I just about jumped out of my skin when I tried it here. I swear, the bartender threw a bunch of straight lemon juice into the bottom of a glass, then added unsweetened tea. Talk about pucker power! WOW!!! I managed 2 sips, then sent the drink back, and got a Coke. My husband enjoyed his Meatloaf. But he agrees that it is way overpriced for what we received. (Most meals were served a la carte, and did not come with sides. Every side costs $8 here. And I believe a bowl of french onion soup was $12. CRAZY!) Thank you, but never again. read more

Absolutely no care in the world for customers. My husband attempted to take me here for a nice birthday dinner. We made a reservation, and we were there 5-10 minutes early. We were told there would be a short wait. No big deal so we sat down in the lobby. We were patiently waiting and the time of our reservation came and then went. A large group of people came in a few minutes after 7 and they were sat before us. I questioned the hostess and the other customer turned around and said " Our reservation was for 7 too" ...okay and? The large party was late. We were on time. There was no excuse to sit them before us, especially when it was now 20 minutes past our reservation time. I left a bad review on google and they copied and pasted a response that said "fill out this form on our website." I did so immediately. It has now been a month and I still haven't had anyone contact me. Horrid customer service. I also plan events in the area and I'm always looking for great places to host dinners and holiday parties. You guys really dropped the ball on this one. If you accept reservations, you make the walk ins wait longer and you put a time limit on the tables as to accommodate said reservations. It's really very simple. read more

Food was good but service is HORRIBLE! We arrived at 4ish and greeted by a young lady. The host never smiled, no warm greeting, not friendly. We were seated at a table close to open kitchen. Several staff members loudly conversing and laughing. Two of them made eye contact with us but never greeting my table. I ask host when she was walking by if a server was coming over. After ten minutes we walked over and sat at the bar with Cody. Cody the bartender served our drinks promptly. The server walked over and loudly told the bartender that he stole his table!! Seriously!! She glared at us for moving to the bar after she completely ignored us!! Absolutely no leadership! Mismanaged restaurant that has good food but will be out of business because of the lack of service! read more

4.5 stars for Stoney River. Nice ambiance and the service was great! Their little bread rolls were amazing, they tasted like fresh donuts baked to perfection. We ordered the tuna stack for our appetizers, ribeye steak with au gratin potatoes, and prime rib of beef with Parmesan fries. Took off .5 stars due to long wait time for our food to arrive. Other than that, I would definitely recommend trying this place out! read more

The food is consistently delicious. I shared the Caesar salad with my husband. It was more than enough for two people. My husbands prime rib was very good. I had the Bistro Chicken which is Panko Parmesan crusted with lemon caper sauce, absolutely delicious! The dinners came with your choice of two sides. The whipped garlic mashed were silky smooth. The have a nice selection of wines and desserts. Key lime pie is big enough to share with a thick tasty crust. read more

The steak rolls are to die for. So yummy and definitely don't skip on those. I love the dark ambiance of this restaurant and the waitstaff is very knowledgeable on the food and wine choices. read more

Can't recommend this place enough! Every single thing we had, both food and drinks, were absolutely delicious. We dined here on Christmas Eve and couldn't have been more pleased. The service was also exceptional. Our server, Phillip, and one of the managers, Sean, just added to our great experience with their professionalism as well as very pleasant small talk! It was such a great evening in a venue with what I think is the perfect ambiance. Highly recommend any of the steaks, the shrimp appetizer, and the Godiva coffee for after dinner. read more

I love it! It gives you that vibe of J Alexander but an upgrade. Very nice ambience the staff is knowledgeable and professional and the food is always hot and fresh. It's perfect for a drink at the bar or even date nite with that special someone. The nose level is not over done either being it is medium-large interior but spaced appropriately. I've had the fish tacos from here which were removed from the menu pre-covid they were hood so it hurts to know they have phased them out! Typically I get an entree and app & for small portion I suggest the Crab and Lobster Bisque and the Caesar salad which is always on point for my quick bite. Please go you won't be disappointed we'll atleast I hope not! read more

Used to truly enjoy sitting at the bar and sharing dinner with my wife. MAJOR staff turnover hasn't helped, but the new team seems nice. Our biggest issue is the new menu. Stoney River has removed EVERY dish we enjoyed. Spinach dip? Nope. Famous steak and biscuits? Nope. Happy hour chicken sliders? Nope. Whats left is a series of dishes not worth the price compare to other restaurants in the area. Sad. read more

My wife, kids and some friends went here to celebrate our anniversary. First, the atmosphere and ambiance is AMAZING. We felt relaxed, comfortable and spoiled. The server felt like she was catering to us and management checked on our table a few times (partially because we had been sitting at the table for almost 3hrs ). The food was great. Not one take home box and we (my wife and I) were surprised with two chocolate cakes to end the afternoon right. It is a nice place to impress friends, family, pastors, etc). I will bring back again and again... This time without the kids lol read more

I wanted to like my visit here more, but the food didn't live up to its prices or description. On the positive side we sat at the bar and enjoyed the ambiance. The bartenders and wait staff were professional, friendly and competent. The inside of the restaurant is lovely and you feel like you're at a high end joint. The wine I ordered to go with my steak was delicious. We decided to try the coffee cured filet - w/the au gratin potatoes and ordered a side of creamed spinach. We were so excited to try it, but the steak just did not hit it out of the park, we were disappointed with the flavor. The potatoes were good, the spinach was not great. Anyways - this was my 2nd visit here, the first time I tried the medallion trio, again, good but not great. We probably won't be back for dinner, but if in the area would stop if for a drink and appetizer perhaps. read more

The decor of this restaurant is absolutely beautiful. They did an amazing job decorating it. We made reservations and we were seating right away. The food was amazing and fresh. Their bread was unreal. For appetizers we had the spinach dip which was average and we had the steak rolls which were amazing. For dinner we all ordered steaks. They were all cooked the way we wanted them. We got mashed potatoes, asparagus and creamed spinach for sides. They were all tasty and fresh. For dessert we ordered creme brûlée which was unreal and a cookie cake that was okay. Their drinks were all very good as well. I recommend this place for a girls night out, a group or a date night. read more

Was my favorite restaurant until today. The cheeseburger and fries came out room temperature. When I mentioned it after a bite all I got was an insincere I'm sorry. No offer to reheat. Very disappointing! I had told my friend how good the food is. His Caesar was subpar and the onion soup was just ok. Not sure what happened to their quality!? read more

Very professional chain type restaurant. Everything is very tasty, everybody's very well trained, food is good, drinks are good, advances good, but put it all together, it just feels too much like a chain restaurant. Location and parking are easy. This place is always busy we can always find parking. No matter what time after work you come here, happy hour bar is always crowded. Drinks are rather expensive and pours are short, but you expect that from a chain restaurant. Only complaint I have is the blue cheese olives taste funky and are always mushy. I have been here for lunch quite a few times. I've never had a bad meal. But again, it feels like the menu was created by a corporate chef in a food lab. But it is quite homey. Good concept, good execution, but I come here only for business lunches and happy hour drinks. Not a place I would bring my family to. I would also say this place is on the extreme upper end of pricey for what you get. read more

1. Thank you for creating a romantic ambiance where you can barely see your menu or the other person but not every visit is of a romantic nature so you should have some tables available where that is not the default setting. 2. Very cool and modern looking restaurant in a great location. Very nice wait staff and for the most part knowledgeable about the different items on the menu. 3. Get the steak rolls, it was absolutely delicious. The steak au poivre was decent, it just tasted like a good steak but nothing special as the French in the title suggests. The rib eye came out perfectly cooked and was very good. I just kept thinking I'm paying way too much for something that I know I can make at home as long as I get a good cut of meat. The smoked Gouda Mac and cheese though, was delightful. It was really really good. I could've just gotten the steak rolls and the Mac and cheese and that would've been the perfect meal. read more

The atmosphere is very welcoming. The service is just enough, not over the top. And the food also adds to one's experience.

My initial review of this place was phenomenal. I had an amazing time, great service, even better food. I have highly recommended this restaurant to many of my friends, some of which have become regulars here. Unfortunately, my recent experiences have been disappointing. Usually I order carry out and the bar and they almost always forget something in my order. Now, I make them open it all up there before I leave. I came in yesterday with someone that I had been wanting to try this place. A waitress came by to ask us if we wanted water and after we got our water nobody came. I called out to her and she said someone else was supposed to be our waitress but that she would take over. After this, our orders got messed up. They forgot items, which usually happens here, and they brought out the wrong dressing for my salad. As an app I ordered the steak rolls (of course). They weren't as good as they have been all of the other times. I think it may have been that they hadn't been filled enough. I also ordered my regular salad (Caesar with avocado, blackened salmon, herb vinaigrette, no croutons) and fries. They brought the wrong dressing, as mentioned before. They also initially forgot my fries. When they came out, they came with ketchup when I wanted ranch. The fries weren't as good today. Many of them were soggy. This place used to have my favorite fries, they were crispy and fresh. Today they were horrible. Must have been an off day overall. My partner ordered the Thai chicken salad and he added tomatoes to it. They forgot the tomatoes too. They also never brought out the donut rolls. We had to ask for them towards the end of our meal. My partner enjoyed those the most. The service was horrible. The waitress we were supposed to have told us that she was new, so I understand. It's just inexcusable to have horrible service if the restaurant is not busy. My partner was really upset about this, bad service is one of his biggest pet peeves. Mainly for this reason he prefers J Alexander's. He also wanted béarnaise (he always orders it at J's) sauce for the steak rolls and 10 minutes later they told him that they only offered it for dinner. This is odd considering it is just a sauce. It was really disappointing to bring someone to a restaurant you constantly rave about, only to disappoint them and yourself. Nobody but the new waitress (in training) apologized about the lack of service. The new waitress was really nice so I wish her luck, but on top of that our orders got completely messed up. I can see why the reviews have been plummeting. I don't plan on coming back anytime soon, but when I do I will make sure it's on the weekend. They seem to be dysfunctional during lunch on weekdays. read more

After learning that Stoney River shares ownership with J Alexander's, I couldn't wait to try this place out. I celebrated my birthday dinner here and had an exceptional first time experience. I came here on a Friday evening and when we were seated there was a envelope on the table with Happy Birthday written on it. Such a thoughtful gesture to receive a birthday card! Our waitress was very friendly and checked on us frequently. Not a huge cocktail menu but lots of wine and beer choices. The interior is contemporary with both booths and tables. Very open with high ceiling. The menu is very similar to J Alexander's. I passed on the bread rolls they brought to the table due to a gluten intolerance, but my date said that they tasted really good like donuts. Lol. For my entrée I ordered the sea scallops and they were delicious. Perfectly seared and seasoned. It came with a side of sautéed spinach and tomatoes with fresh mozzarella. So tasty! My date ordered the Ahi Salad and he said it was very good. I only wish that I had room for dessert...because I had my eyes on the carrot cake. I was secretly hoping that they would offer a free dessert for my birthday. Oh Well, i'm not complaining. Everything was exceptional from service, ambience, and food. I can't wait to come back and try more things off the menu. They also offer brunch on Saturday and Sundays...something that J Alexander's doesn't do. read more

The experience: I had a flawless dining experience at Stoney River and I very rarely give five star reviews. First off the location and the decor of the restaurant is fantastic. It has an upscale feel that is much different from your traditional "old-school" steakhouse which I found refreshing. The staff were all extremely friendly and we had three to four people tend to us at a time so whatever we needed we received in a timely manner. The food: First off this place has a very impressive wine selection of two pages with some very great names on them. Our server made a great suggestion for a wine I hadn't tried yet for dinner; he knew his stuff. I had the prime rib with their signature one pound baked potato and lobster bisque and it was all fantastic. The lobster bisque had some of the largest pieces of lobster I've ever had in it and the prime rib was cooked perfectly. The baked potato was very interesting; it was huge and came fully loaded. The outside of the potato was covered in a generous amount of course salt which made the skins very tasty. We finished dinner with crème bruleé which was more than enough for two people to complete our flawless dining experience. read more

So I waited a year (I think) to try Stoney River. I've heard some mix reviews. So I had to try it out anyway. I have to say it's not bad. I'm not overly excited about Chain restaurants. Super cool looking decor in the inside. Great size bar area. Dinning area is spacious. However, I didn't like how dark it was inside. It was to dark. But other then that I liked what i saw. The food was good! I has the salmon which tasted great! Seasoned every well. Also, tried the steaks scallops, Halibut and the shrimp. Every tasted great! Prices weren't to bad. Very reasonable priced out. Great for dates and small groups. If you are in the Troy area and looking for a nice piece of steak or fish. Stoney River is the place I would suggest! read more

An absolute new favorite of mine! My companion and I came in for dinner just before the evening crowd (became super busy within an hour of our arrival). We were greeted warmly at the hostess stand and seated right away. The decor was stunning yet cozy in a modern twist. One of the better looking restaurants around. We quickly ordered an appetizer that was recommended by the wonderful staff (steak eggrolls) which was pleasantly tasty! Complimentary bread and cinnamon butter was great as well. My date and I both went for the lobster bisque as a starter and steak frites with mashed potatoes for our entrees. Which ALL were excellent considering the price and the 5 star experience! I sincerely hope Troy keeps this gem around since there are only 12 other locations nationwide. Also a warm shoutout to who I presume to be the manager, super inviting gentleman who made quick meaningful conversations with us and the others who dined. read more

Stoney River - Generous corkage options - Steakhouses Near Me - Troy, Michigan

Although Big Beaver is the last place in the world that needed another steakhouse, we've been interested in trying this place since we saw it being built. Valentine Day seemed like the perfect occasion to try it out. We are generally not fans of fancy white tablecloth steakhouses, so we were pleased to see the casual atmosphere here. One of the things I had noticed on the Yelp reviews was the outstanding service. We saw that in action as soon as we got there. The host was calm and friendly on a very busy evening and our server couldn't have been nicer. Now...on to the food! I never pass up the opportunity to have lobster bisque and it was quite good here. I followed it with the filet medallions - I truly enjoyed the unique topping on each one. I also had the caramelized onion mashed potatoes. It was all quite delicious! Judging by the vibe and the menu I would not hesitate to come back here for a more casual evening out...and I look forward to my return! read more

Had a very wonderful experience food was delicious service was good the reason for 4 stars was that a table has to have one bill.

So good! I was very excited to see the "coming soon " sign for Stoney River. I lived in Nashville for some time and this was one of my favorite treats. I loved the little rolls that look like donut holes and the yummy butter. The young ladies at the Hostess desk greeted us warmly. Big fat positive. We were seated in a spacious window booth. The decor is really nice and contemporary. We started with the steak rolls which I could actually eat every day. THEY ARE SO GOOD! My mom had the shrimp and I got a burger and the au gratin potatoes. Everything was awesome. It was so good that my bf made me come back a week later because he missed the meal. He got the shrimp since my mom raved about it and I got the steak and biscuits. Now.. I'm not really a steak eater.. yes I know it's a steak house. I ordered them well done.. dont judge me. They were prepared perfectly and were so tender even though well done. We will go back and back and back. read more

I arrived 20 minutes early to my reservation for 2 and didn't get seated till an hour later. They kept getting the name on the reservation wrong. After 40 minutes I was already over the place and wanted to head out. But. I only stayed just to taste the food. Tortilla soup- good Lobster bisque soup- good Center cut steak - absolutely no flavor Cured coffee steak- more flavor and was decent Au gratin potatoes - no flavor. Looked good in pics but wasn't cooked enough and was just boring. Mac n cheese- was whatever. Nothing to brag about. We had about 3 different waiters. It was odd but no big deal. Food took long to come out. I like that the waiters said they tried everything on the menu. The ambiance was just like j Alexander's. I thought it would be more upscale but it definitely wasn't. I'd rather go to j Alexander's than come back here. Wouldn't recommend to others unless they're just dying to try it out. read more
