This place is so busy but so good. Get a reservation. Place was packed to the brim and we waited quite a while but I'm glad we came here for our anniversary weekend. The food was delicious and I appreciated that our server asked what we were celebrating. We said our anniversary and he brought us some champagne to celebrate. We got other drinks as well so it was a nice touch that was very appreciated. I got the coffee cured steak with garlic mashed potatoes and it was delicious. My husband got a french dip which he liked as well. The side caesar was a good size to share. Would definitely go back here again. It's like a sister restaurant of J Alexanders. read more

WOW! This restaurant is incredible from layout, decor, lighting, service, and FOOD! I'm really sad I didn't get any photos of our dishes, we were so starved we just devoured immediately! My brother gifted my partner and I a gift card here for Christmas and we ended up going on my birthday "Jan 19th". We arrived 10 mins before our reservation and were seated promptly. We were then greeted by our server Angela who made excellent recommendations and gave great conversation. We started our meal with a cold two hearted ale of course, the, shrimp cocktail, and calamari and were blown away with how crispy and flavorful the squid was and how ice cold and fresh the shrimp cocktail was! We also were given complimentary bread which I really don't know how to describe other than BOMB with a great whipped cinnamon sugar butter. We shared a wedge salad, and no joke, best wedge salad I've ever had and a great portion size for two. For entrees I chose that cowboy steak with Mac and cheese and my partner had the New York strip with the au gratin potatoes. The entrees were outstanding, steaks were cooked perfectly and I'm not exaggerating in any facet of this review. After, Angela brought us over a slice of chocolate cake for my birthday that was so decadent and moist and delicious. It reminded me of the chocolate cake from Matilda that Miss Trunchbull forced Bruce Bogtrotter to eat and it was the perfect way to end our meal. Also, the restaurant is owned by J Alexander's, my favorite restaurant if that pushes the needle for you. Amazing experience, we will certainly be back in the future. Thank you so much, Stoney River! read more

The food and service is amazing they have great steaks and beers. The ambiance is also a nice touch I would always recommend.

The esthetics of the restaurant is nice. My margarita was very good however, the food was meh. I had the Bistro chicken which was freshly cooked but missing flavor. My friend had the meatloaf and that too was missing flavor. I would probably revisit for drinks and perhaps appetizers, but not a meal. read more

My experience was very good here. In town for work and sat at the bar. Good little atmosphere. The bartender was very attentive. I got the Cab Austin Hope which I enjoy. I ordered the ribeye medium and the flavored butter on top added nice flavor. My side was the baked potato which I feel you can't mess up. My overall dinner was good and the steak was cooked well with a good sear. I am pleased and would return read more

Had a 5 star Christmas Eve dinner. Host was very friendly and seated us promptly at our reservation time. Our waitress was also friendly and did a good job. As for the food and drink, everything was delicious. We started with the calamari and it was a big hit. For entrees I had the pecan trout and it was very flavorful and well cooked. Two others got the steakhouse burger and also said it was very good and our other entree was the Nola shrimp. I especially enjoyed the cauliflower side and the creamy mashed potato's. Everything tasted very good! For dessert we had the crème brûlée which was a great ending! Overall we had a 5 star dinner and everyone left satisfied raving how good it all tasted. I would recommend Stoney river for a special meal and good service! read more

Went there for a late Valentines dinner. Definitely make a reservation or you'll end up waiting a while or not getting a table. Stoney River was very busy and had a long wait the day we went. Atmosphere is nice and lively. Waitress was good and help explain the menu to us. Food overall was good but nothing too special. The only special I would say is their coffee cured meat. That was very unique and had a great taste. 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

Stoney River - Filet Trio - Steakhouses Near Me - Troy, Michigan

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

Hard to start with bad news but, went here for happy hour and was told that the happy hour was only on the bar stools next to the bar. Even though I ordered from the happy hour menu I was still charged full price. I won't get into how long it took to be greeted as the person who finally greeted me was very nice but it was at least 10min while sitting at the bar. Will I recommend it? I think they are new and just trying to get it together. read more

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

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

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

VERY DISAPPOINTED. Food made me extremely sick causing vomiting. We previously had good experiences at Stoney River as we dined in three times previously but this time we did carry out and became sick a few hours later. My wife became nauseous with a lot of stomach gas and discomfort but I had it much worse as I vomited 7-8 times over a five hour period. The next day I contacted the restaurant and they were very nice and said they will look into it and have their risk management team get back to me. However, the risk management employee said since they were unable to identify any specific issues relating to other diners (dine in) that had the same food, all they would do was provide a $40 credit for a future visit. I told them that maybe it wasn't the food but instead an employee handling the carryout had dirty hands but it didn't really matter as it made me sick. I said the $40 credit would be acceptable if their restaurant messed up our order but it was completely unacceptable because I became extremely sick that night and it took several days for my stomach to recover. They have yet to do anything but I'll follow up here if they make things right. 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

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

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 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

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.

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

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

This was our first time at Stoney River. It was easy to make a reservation for my birthday through their web site, and, upon arrival, a text thread allowed me to check in for our reservation. When I made the reservation online, it said we would be seated in the dining room. Unfortunately, we were seated in the bar area. We had been told that they were running behind on reservations, so we begrudgingly sat in the bar area instead of waiting longer to see if we could sit in the dining room. Our server told us that she was being trained, and the server accompanying her told us the specials. We decided to start with drinks and spinach dip. The spin dip was good, but we probably could have done with less onion. For our meal, I had the center cut filet with the half pound baked potato and my husband had the steak and biscuits with Parmesan fries. I really enjoyed the filet. The butter that came with it was the perfect addition! My husband's steak and biscuits were quite peppery. We had some issues throughout dinner and spoke to a manager. She was very helpful, and we left satisfied. 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

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

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

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

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

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

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

This was my first visit and I have been trying to dine here for some time. My mom and I decided to give this restaurant a try per my suggestion. Best decision ever. We chose to sit outside to be safe and socially distanced and the patio was cozy and decorated with beautiful flower planters. The waiters wore masks and the inside dining was also socially distanced. All of our food and drink was supremely flavorful! 1) whiskey shrimp appetizer, 2) blackened salmon Caesar salad (salmon wasn't served blackened though, 3) steakhouse burger with Mac n cheese side, and carrot cake dessert plus 5) some Prosecco, apple brandy and ginger cocktail. Oh and how can I forget the flavored butter and rolls (think it's cinnamon + honey). I am looking forward to dining her again and trying more items from the menu. read more
