The ambiance at Stoney River was generally pleasant: the music was my only complaint, a little too bouncy for me (hoping for calming jazz music). Service was excellent! Everyday, Stoney River features daily specials on salads and entrees. Today, I chose the Old Savannah style chicken tenders with Parmesan fries; excellent crunchiness and flavor! Would recommend coming to this place during dinner instead of lunch, since the atmosphere is very calming yet lively. (Lunch was too quiet.) read more

I walked into this restaurant and it was rather slow. I was seated immediately. The waitress was nice. She got my drink order and brought out bread. The bread was soft but rather dry. I ordered lobster bisque to start. It was ok. It was kind of bland. Then I ordered the filet trio off the special menu. The medallions were good. The blue cheese one was weird but the other two were delicious. It came with a baked potato. I would have loved to have some vegetables other than the bits of asparagus on the one steak. read more

Had a fantastic dining experience here! Angela our server and Michelle the GM were wonderful. We had the steak rolls, wedge salads, prime rib and bistro chicken. Everything was delicious. The carrot cake was amazing and probably the best. read more

Nice looking restaurant! Lots of seating and very cool atmosphere.. I order a cocktail called Early Riser. The menu shows Woodford Reserve Bourbon, maple syrup and bitters. So it's an old fashioned with maple syrup rather than sugar. When the drink arrived, it didn't look anything like what I had expected, but I took a sip. It wasn't what was listed on the menu. There was a lot of citrus in it, and I didn't care for it at all. I called the waiter over and explained that this wasn't the drink I ordered. He came back with what was listed on the menu and explained that even though it isn't listed on the menu, the early riser has lemon juice in it! He apologized and said that they need to get that corrected. We started out with an appetizer called steak rolls. We were told that they are the most popular appetizer and described as an egg roll stuffed with beef. My wife thought they sound good so ordered them. They more like a gooey cheeseburger stuffed in a wonton and deep fried. Not quite what we were expecting, but they were very good. I ordered the steakhouse burger and it was "ok". I asked for medium and it was well done...and maybe even extra well done as the meat was dry. The caramelized onions and Gruyère cheese were excellent, as were the fries, but the main part of the dish was disappointing. My wife ordered the bistro chicken and said it was excellent, although her mashed potatoes were just above room temperature. I will try them again, but will stay away from the burger. read more

Nice atmosphere. Food was great. Service was excellent. Server Abby was attentive and Manager Andrea was great! We started with the calamari. Portion was large enough for 4 people to share. We ordered the prime rib and salmon. Asparagus was grilled to perfection. Broccoli was tasty. Lobster Mac and cheese was good. The salmon had a nice crust but was juicy/flaky inside. So delish! Prime rib was delicious but an overcooked. Asked for medium. It was not juicy. Manager got me something else as they were out of the prime. Got the trio instead cooked medium. It was perfect. We brought our own bottle of wine. The corkage fee was $25. Also indulged in a cocktail before dinner. The lavender Margarita...OMG!...the Early Riser...YUM! Dessert was the chocolate cake...moist, rich and delicious! Hope to join Stoney River on other occasions very soon! Definitely looking forward to joining them for dinner, happy hour M-F 4-6 and Sunday brunch 11-2p. Overall great experience! read more

Melissa the server was excellent . She recommended some really good drinks and brought birthday cake at end , which was nice surprise . The swordfish and the salmon were excellent as were the sides . The only caveat here is it feels a little bit rushed. We asked for the basket of rolls when we sat down with our cocktails and were told they don't come out until you order your food. So we got salads with the rolls and three minutes later the entrées came out. Not enough room for so many plates . My husband had a salad taken away when he was still eating it. But all in all ,nice experience and will return. We had a reservation, but it was not busy, like so many other spots in Troy for a Saturday night . read more

Impressed by their French onion soup and that was by far my favorite dish. Their bread and butter was also delicious. I ordered the ahi tuna salad, but to my surprise the mango I was served was hard, tasteless, and 4 pieces, haha. The cucumber to my opinion was chopped too small: I didn't really enjoy my salad. The atmosphere is nice, but kind of loud. Great stop to come with friends! read more

The bread/butter is better than Texas Rd House. So delicate and fluffy. Melts in your mouth. You also have to try the stacked burger. Crispy meat around the edges with a toasted soft bun. Perfection. Will be back. read more

I had been wanting to try this place for a while now, and we finally made it! The restaurant is open and airy when u walk in despite the dense dark colors and wood used in it. The service was great and thoughtful. But that is kind of where it ends. The food was just so so. There is nothing to write home about. We got the ahi tunastack to start, and that was just bland. Then, I ordered the trout, as I love seafood, and that was just ok. I only ate half and liked my potatoes more. To be honest, this place was just ok. I really wanted more from this place. read more

Why would they discontinue the carrot cake? Truly sad. Also, the pecan crusted trout disappoints. We have trout farms in Michigan. And they spawn here too. The portions are small and the preparation does not do the dish justice. read more

Sunday Brunch menu. Egg whites are not an option and salty potatoes. 3 stars for the food. 5 stars for service. Rodney was the highlight! attentive, expedient, and jungled a crowded seated bar AND tables for the entire restaurant yet didn't miss a beat with no one's order. I'll be back just for this. Tender and well seasoned steak even the toast was delicious. $19 read more

Stoney River - Steak & eggs - Steakhouses Near Me - Troy, Michigan

Surprised SR gets such a low rating; husband took me for my bday dinner and everything was wonderful! First off we started w the deviled eggs, which featured homemade pickle relish and sugar-cured bacon--not phenomenal but very good. Next up was the house salad, which we split. It was a great portion for us before our entree; loved the homemade ranch. Yum! The waitress also brought us complimentary bread and butter, and it was delicious. I could have eaten a basket of that for dinner! I ordered the Ribeye and my husband had a NY strip, both cooked medium, and both were DELICIOUS and cooked perfectly. Steaks include a potato, I tried au gratin, my husband went with mashed and both were really good, but I think the au gratin was the better choice--cheesy heaven! We also ordered a side of broccoli, you know, because stay healthy. Lol. Since it was my bday, and my husband let them know when he booked, I received a complimentary slice of cake for my birthday. It was excellent, as was the entire meal and the service! I can't wait to go back again!! Highly recommend! read more

The wait staff. The ambiance was good as well. The appetizers were great. My entree came out cold it was sent back and mgr brought back to table. Was better but by that time our other members in the party had finished theirs so I took it to go. We will return to that hopefully they can get a 5 star from me. But I will definitely like to re-visit! Our waitress was great Adele! read more

Spent a very nice evening catching up with friends last week at the Troy, Michigan location. Nice atmosphere, the food was good, the service staff was polite, but not 'error free'. Overall a nice place for a small reunion of friends. read more

The appetizer we ordered, which is not on the menu here for me to tag, was a bit salty but good. Basically sautéed shrimp in a zippy sauce over garlic bread rounds. I had the Prime Rib (medium rare). The crust was okay in flavor. My wife had the Steak medallions with a lobster tail (not pictured). It was also ok. Our server was cool. She was polite and did her due diligence. The place is clean. No complaints on the decoration or lighting. read more

Great food, great service and amazing atmosphere. The steak bites, might be the best app I have ever had. The steaks and prime rib were great and the price point didn't break the bank. My party closed the place and we were not rushed out the door. I will look to return to this place to order more bites and enjoy the venue and its positives. Check out that carrot cake! **Great Iced Tea read more

I cannot wait to come back here once the dining room opens up! Every single bite of ANYTHING is delicious - quality ingredients and great variety of food! Customers need to be made aware of the complimentary bread - so addicting you could eat it all night. I wish I remembered our server's name, she was so friendly and made us feel welcomed our first time. Came here for our anniversary and they offered us a complimentary dessert, which was a nice surprise we didn't expect! I also didn't expect this restaurant to be such a great value! Owned by J. Alexander's. But you'll get more than your money's worth. read more

1st time here for brunch. Kinda good! Started with a carafe of mimosas server brought some super sized rolls, with butter and cherry jam, very good. Shared a warm lobster roll along with a spicy chicken breakfast biscuit. One of them came with some really good fries. Have had better lobster rolls - chicken was good. Very good service. read more

We enjoy Stoney River for lunch! We've always had a good experience and to be honest, their bread is my favorite part of the meal. Service is always great as well. read more

I went for the first time a couple days. I had the lobster bisque and a chicken Caesar salad. The soup was AMAZING. The salad was pretty regular. The lemon drops are very good too. I definitely plan to visit again. read more

We came here for an early lunch, and I'm so glad we did. Our waitress was super kind, and gave great recommendations. The lemon drop mojito is definitely worth a try. The bread they bring out is delicious, and the food was pretty good as well. My rating is mainly for the service and atmosphere. My only critique would be for the steak biscuits, they make the meat we done, which I would never get. It made it a bit tough to eat. However, I'll definitely be back to try something else. read more

I came here pre-COVID for my birthday meal and had a great experience! To start, we got complimentary rolls which were warm, soft, dense, and sweet just like fresh donuts - it also comes with cinnamon butter. My family ordered a deviled eggs appetizer, too. The bacon on the deviled eggs was crispy, smoky and delicious. For my entree, I ordered the sea bass special, which was served with a lemon butter cream sauce; southern rice; and panko cauliflower (instead of the default sautéed spinach). The fish was juicy, flaky, and delicious. It was a bit heavy due to the natural fattiness of the fish and the lemon butter cream sauce...I thought it would be relatively light, like butter and lemon. Overall, the fish was enjoyable though. The panko cauliflower was crispy on the outside and seasoned well, albeit a little greasy. The rice was good and provided something more neutral to balance out the excess grease and heaviness. Since it was my birthday, I received a complimentary slice of chocolate cake upon request. It was warm, soft, moist, and not too sweet. There was a scoop of vanilla ice cream on side, with decadent chocolate sauce. There was also whipped cream on top. What a delicious way to end dinner! We all enjoyed our meals here, and I would be more than happy to go back in the future. read more

Would give one star if the food was not amazing. The service left something to be desired. Went for a night out with my fiancé. Ordered two appetizers and two glasses of wine. Before anything had come out the sever was quick to ask what we would like for dinner. We asked for bread to accompany our appetizers and wanted some time before ordering. We were told policy is bread does not come out until entrees are ordered. We asked to speak to the manager (Michelle) and she informed us this was not the policy. Our waitress then brought bread out shortly after along with a side of attitude. The manager did not return to check on the food at any point thereafter. Service was clearly evident to favor an older clientele. My fiancé and I have frequented this establishment for the last couple of years and really enjoy the food. This was the first time that discrimination was evident. Use caution and avoid Melissa the server. Update: Adjusted review to 1 star. After the comment below from the regional manager. I had called and filed a complaint with corporate. I have yet to hear a response more than 3 weeks later. read more

Collin was very great and attentive, rolls was fresh food came out quick . I will definitely be back soon :) keep up the good work

Update on my last review! The steaks were exceptional. And the side dishes were delicious, all the food was above Are expectations. They need to be more respectful of your desire's, tied to put us in the Bar Area. Was there with my wife and the place was only about 1/4 occupied and we wanted a quite diner. The hostess was upset that she had to give us a better table. The ambiance was much better after we got a table in dining room. The service was great also, just ask for the area that you want to be in. read more

Anytime i have come here its been a great night, food service and drinks... i always make reservations and never have an issue

Our experience was decidedly mixed during our evening at Stoney River. We were celebrating an anniversary, and made reservations about 2 weeks earlier. We enjoyed the food and our waiter (Charles), but the rest of the staff, and the atmosphere were way below expectations. Despite making a reservation, they wrote "walkin" on the table card and took a long time to seat us. Instead of a nice booth near a window like we requested 2 weeks earlier, we had a loud table in the middle. The staff in general seems very poorly trained and unaccustomed to running a high end restaurant. No mention of a special occasion, and service was more or less indifferent - especially at the host station. The food was pretty good overall. Our deviled eggs were above average and the steaks were prepared very nicely. The highlight of the night was the enormous carrot cake (enough for 4 people), although the creme Brule was pretty bad. I think the layout is worth mentioning here... for a high end restaurant, it's very open and can be quite loud. It seems like the kind of place you would go with another couple or two, but I would not recommend this for a business deal or an intimate date for two. It's not at all private, it's loud and the service is well below what you would experience at Ruth's Chris, or Eddie V's. If you are in the budget for a $200+ dollar meal, I think there are better options. read more

Disappointed in the service I received and I wanted to warn others. I ordered food online for pickup and they double billed me and I went back to get the charge resolved. I was told it's a door dash issue and I can't do nothing for you. The disappointment is they don't stand behind the services they outsourced. Just be careful because if an issue happens in the ordering process they don't stand by the customer to resolve the issue. read more

Our server Sydney was amazing! Always a great time at Stoney river, one of our house favorites. Wedge salad always amazing:) read more

The food was absolutely delicious, upon arrive the hostess was extremely friendly and welcoming. It is a more intimate setting - dim lighting with candles at each table. Bar seating seemed to be more casual. Portions look small but it is plenty of food and it all came out hot! Rhyan was our server and he did an exceptional job at making sure we had everything we wanted! If you're wondering what to get with your side of steak I reccommend the Au Gratin Potatoes - 10x better than the mashed potatoes. One thing I noticed was Yelp makes it come off as if you get complimentary roles with dinner but this is false, you have to purchase them as an appetizer. read more

Came here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I can say we were not disappointed. This was our first time at this establishment and it had only been open a couple weeks since it was allowed to reopen from the covid lock down. It was so nice to actually go out to a restaurant again. On to the food I ordered the New York strip steak medium rare and backed potato. The cook on the beef was amazing The table also ordered prime rib, bone in cowboy ribeye, and the chicken dish. Everything was cooked perfectly and was well enjoyed by all. Even though we were so full from the meal the surprised us with an amazing chocolate cake to help us celebrate. Great atmosphere and great service. Thank you helping us make our night special. read more

We've been here more than a handful of times. Food is pretty good. Servers did a nice job of serving us. Prices are a bit higher than they were in recent years but are not out of range with other places. The management really dropped the ball on us however and it really ruined the dinner. We made a reservation for 7 people on the "Resy" system used by the restaurant for a family dinner with my elderly parents and my sister's family. We made it very clear in the reservation notes that we could NOT be in a booth due to some physical restrictions and inability of part of our party to get in and out of the booth. We arrived on time, and they walked us back to our table, which of course was a booth. We told them we had an issue. They told us that the only other thing they could do was seat us at two separate tables, which could NOT be put together because the tables are all bolted to the floor. So they broke our family dinner into two tables. They also had two separate servers, because they said that even though they were near each other, they had different servers assigned to each table. And they said they could HAD to have separate checks, because the servers were different. Here is the cherry on top: Even though they wouldn't /"couldn't" seat us together and gave us separate checks for each table, they considered it one large party and dictated that gratuity is automatically added to each bill because it's more than 5 people. If you actually treated us like one party, I would understand. But when you treat us like we are an inconvenience to the restaurant for brining 7 people in for dinner, and don't even seat us or bill us as a group, don't add the gratuity. I have no problem tipping the amount they added. That wasn't the point. Had the manager called me ahead of time and told me they couldn't accommodate without putting us in a book, I would have been very grateful and cancelled and booked a smaller group for another time. But just not paying attention to the need, or seeing it and blowing it off, created a problem. There are really good places to eat all up and down Big Beaver Rd where the managers actually pay attention to the customer needs. I don't think we will be going back for a while, if at all. read more

Pleasant friendly staff. Nicely cooked salmon with good crust yet tender inside. Good wine list with good by the glass options.

The dining room was clean and bright due to the surround windows. Food & drinks were excellent, can't wait to return. We ordered beverages: hot tea, strawberry Margaritas, appetizers: salad, shrimp and steak egg rolls; dinner: Ribeye, Meatloaf, & Nola grilled shrimp; desserts: Carrot Cake, Key lime pie, and Chocolate cake. All portions were generous. Our server Richard was well inviting. Well informed of menu items & attentive, I give him a 10 out of 5 stars. That's right! read more

The food was amazing- the flavors were so unique but subtle in a good way. There rolls were fresh and the texture reminded me of donuts. The waitress was very nice. The scenery was relaxing but not overly formal which I liked. We will definitely be back! read more

I had no idea this was owned by the same group as J Alexander's, which I have gotten sick once on their shrimp and had a bout of stomach issues after eating there. Different manager and restaurant but same philosophy and practices are likely? Hope not. I was willing to give it a go, had a friend that used to work there, but the wait tonight was over an hour. It's not even 6:30pm on a Saturday night. Are peeps eating earlier these days then? Came back on a Monday night. No wait. Joe waited on us tonight. We ordered several items to share since this is part two of our progressive dinner meal tonight. Started off with deviled eggs, vine ripened tomatoes, Caesar and pan seared scallops. He was nice, attentive and quick. The deviled eggs were creamy, spicy and flavorful. I like the sprig of chives on each, added a nice light robustness edge to the eggs. The small bread rolls were sweet and warm and reminded me so much of a donut hole. They were so good, could have eaten the whole basket of them The Caesar dressing was intensely flavorful and yummy. Romaine was crisp and fresh. The mozzarella and vine ripened tomatoes were just okay. The tomatoes were not very ripe, didn't look vine ripened at least, pale red if at all and had little to no flavor to them. The mozzarella piece was a bit scant on each anemic tomato piece as well, but the balsamic glaze was nice as was the arugula salad. The fried onion was a nice looking garnish but it didn't appeal to me to eat it with the salad at all, texture thing. The scallops were well cooked, peppery and seasoned all over. The lemon beurre Blanc sauce was good, spinach was good, but maybe a bit too salty. The vine ripened tomato with the scallops is what I would have expected and preferred with the mozzarella and app. Food and service was all good here. read more

Great during the week, but best to avoid on weekends...Essentially a more steak centric J Alexanders, though no longer part of the corporate family after a spinoff. Has all the hallmarks of a typical J Alexanders restaurant. Very good service, usually two waiters tag teaming. Sidecars with martinis, freshly squeezed juice in the drinks, and a very fairly priced wine list with one or two standout cabs at less than 2x cost. Very good bread, lightly fried with honey butter. Great devilled eggs, good salads, and very good prime rib and steaks. The menu mirrors J Alexanders with much overlap but more steak and seafood selections at a very fair price point.  22 oz bone in ribeye with a side is a steal at 55 given these days the same steak is approaching 80 elsewhere without a side. Similar to J Alexanders they will cut a larger size prime rib and charge accordingly.  Same layout as most J Alexanders with booths surrounding tables and a decent sized bar. Good for business dinners and dates during the week, as it attracts a professional well-dressed clientele. On weekends it is a different place entirely, and morphs into a vastly different experience.  Jammed at the bar and vestibule with baseball cap wearing, jersey clad with boxer shorts popping out of blue jeans and the smell of marijuana wafting through the air. More like a frat party than an upper range to upscale restaurant. They become so crowded with walk ins the waiters are overwhelmed, and reservations not honored. When I'm paying for a nice dinner out,  this is usually not my cup of tea. When going to a bar before/after a sporting event sure, but then I know what to expect. So in short reasonably priced very good steaks, good drinks and service, but an identity crisis on weekends that desperately needs to be addressed. Hence my split rating 4 during the week, 1 on weekends, 2.5 overall... read more
