It makes me sad to see such bad reviews, Stone House has been one of my favorite restaurants in Reno for years. Beautiful outdoor patio, lots of gluten free options, extensive cocktail menu and we always love seeing David (waiter). I highly recommend for any meal of the day or just to grab a drink on the patio! read more

Such a quaint place. It is relaxing and the outside tables have trees and umbrellas to create shade. It was a casual lunch for us so I had two sliders with sweet potato fries. My partner had fish and chips. Nothing fancy but quite delicious. The service was very good. The waitress checked on us often. Next time I'm going to try one of their delicious looking salads. I can't wait... Maybe we will eat inside at our next visit. read more

New Ownership, Same Great Food, Better Vibe! I have always been a fan of the menu here, but I'll be honest, I stopped visiting for a while due to the rumors regarding how the previous ownership treated their staff. I was thrilled to hear that ownership has officially changed, so I decided it was time to come back and treat myself to a midweek brunch. The Food I ordered the Tuscan Scrambler, and it is truly better than ever. If you've never tried the combination of pesto and eggs, you are missing out; it is a brilliant, savory pairing that they execute perfectly. The quality of the food has stayed consistently high, which was a relief to see. The Atmosphere While the food is fantastic, it's the vibe that really won me over this time. The outside space is absolutely gorgeous. Sitting out there, you completely forget you're at a cafe, it feels like you've been transported to a private, lush garden for afternoon tea. Must Try: Tuscan Scrambler Pro Tip: Definitely ask for a table in the garden/outdoor area. The Verdict: If you've been staying away because of the old management, it's time to come back. The fresh energy and the beautiful setting make it the perfect spot for a self care brunch. So happy to have this spot back in my regular rotation! Owners be aware, if you treat your staff poorly, locals will find out and stop supporting you. Please take care of your staff of the locals will hold you accountable. read more

I seldom leave reviews at locally owned establishments, but this needs to be said. Staff is incredibly rude and dismissive. This place is busy, but the lack of respect and accommodation is abysmal. I will not be returning. The food is just OK too, nothing to write home about. There are far superior breakfast spots throughout Reno. read more

Another awesome breakfast! My husband and I popped in on a Saturday morning for breakfast. We didn't have reservations and knew there was a strong chance they might not be able to take us. We totally lucked out. They were able to seat us right away! I had the pulled pork omelette. It was delicious. The pork was tender and flavorful. The green sauce was delicious too. As were the potatoes. While we were eating, Cyrina (the owner) dropped by our table to say hi. As always, she was charming and funny! She truly wants her guests to enjoy their experience at her restaurant. The patio garden was beautiful! Everything was in bloom and so well cared for. The service was also very good. I've been going to the Stone House for years and have always enjoyed every meal there. read more

We stopped by The Stone House Cafe for lunch before our drive to Tahoe. We arrived on a Thursday afternoon and were seated immediately. First, the patio area is absolutely gorgeous! I wish I would've taken more pictures of it. Our group had plenty of space between us and our neighboring tables. We had a large umbrella directly over our table and another umbrella right next to us for additional shade. Our server was kind, friendly, and attentive. He checked on us frequently and accommodated our requests. One member of our group needed a little more time to decide what she wanted and he remembered to check back in with her a few minutes later. The food itself was delicious. We ordered a variety of dishes including the steak salad, ahi tuna sandwich, coconut salmon, cheeseburger, etc. Everyone in our group of seven enjoyed their meal. We didn't have any pets with us, but FYI that pets are not allowed; service animals only. I highly recommend The Stone House Cafe especially if you have a chance to enjoy their beautiful outdoor area. read more

We got seated immediately even though we didn't have a reservation. Host was great. The service was great, Brenda was very pleasant. All the servers have a smile on their face, which brings joy. The food was good, I had the Belgian Waffle, it was indeed golden brown and delicious. My father-in-law had the Chorizo Pizza, he did mention that it was good but, there was very little chorizo. Brother-in-law had the Chorizo eggs Benedict and it was great, good portion as well. The ambiance is nice, music is soft enough to speak and chat to each other without having to raise our voices. The restrooms are single stalls. So when it is really busy there would be a line. But, the restrooms are very clean, no foul odor. Definitely recommend coming here. Support small business. read more

This is the most beautiful location to enjoy a sunny day with dining al fresco. The patio has many tables tucked in between bushes and flowers creating a bit of privacy, a nature retreat in the middle of the city. Your furry friends a welcome as long as they are quiet and friendly. The menu is extensive, and every dish creative, delicious, and artistically presented. It is amazing to listen to the waiters describe the special. I have found the wait staff charming, thoughtful, and fun. My family and I enjoy having special brunches here, and I find it a treat to catch a midweek lunch here. read more

Ive had breakfast at Stone house a few times and its a great local spot. Corned beef hash was very good but portion was a little light and not served with a side of those wonderful thin sliced crispy breakfast potatoes .... luckily i got to eat some of my wife's!! My wife had the Truckee meadows scrambler and she loved it!! Breakfast is served with a lovely sourdough bread but for some odd reason they put marmalade on it for you...... I'm not a jam or jelly person and don't think most dudes are and I damn sure don't like orange marmalade. I think marmalade on your sourdough for everyone is a huge miss, marmalade to me is an acquired taste similar in my mind to black licorice , not everyone digs it so just butter your toast and let people decide what they want on their toast. We sat at the bar and the service and atmosphere was good and we were happy to sit right down and eat !! read more

A bit of a disappointment. I ordered the crab omelette with the vegetable hash. My omelette was somewhat dry (the eggs) and had a ton of cheese. The crab was on the top and it was also somewhat dry. The vegetable hash was tasty and healthy. My husband ordered a cheeseburger with fries. One of his fries had a nasty end that should have been cut off before he received the food. Otherwise he enjoyed the meal. Service was lacking quite a bit. She never came to check on us until we were done eating to offer my husband a refill on his iced tea. I asked her for to go boxes. I had half of my food left and she brought a small box. I asked for a larger box which she did bring but she should have seen the amount of food on my plate. We were seated in the indoor porch, with a heater on. It was very warm until the door opened and cold air swished in. We were celebrating our anniversary so it's sad that it turned out this way. read more

I haven't been here in years and I'm glad that this place does not disappoint. Came in for brunch and was greeted and sat down right away. They serve Illy coffee and I love Illy coffee so that was a great start. Shared a plate of their banana rum French toast (to die for!) and their popular smoked salmon benedict. Food was delicious, service was friendly and the ambience of the restaurant was so warm and cozy with the fireplace going. I can't wait for the weather to be warmer for them to open up their outdoor patio. read more

After 12 years it's def time for an update! My folks were visiting, and as they (and I) tend to do, they chatted with any local with a pulse that crossed their paths and would engage them in conversation. Why? Well you may think it's because they're just friendly, but that's only part of the story. Turns out, as an outsider this is one of the best ways to quickly learn about some of the community's best bets, and that's exactly how we landed at Stone House! Now I know this place is absolutely beloved by the entire community, and after this visit I can see why. Charming atmosphere, exceptional service, and in true Abowd fashion, a wildly diverse menu that highlights quality ingredients and creative preparations, each item very good. I have a new found understanding of this place after the recent visit, and must say the only reason I haven't been back sooner is because I unfairly based my opinion on a peak brunch hour experience, during which it was absolutely slammed with an hour plus wait at a time when reservations were never necessary anywhere. It's rare to find servers who know the menu back and front, with experience based recommendations. Here that have that, and they have to recall several daily specials with the same familiarity, which they manage to do exceptionally well. I had the San Diego sandwich, with a thick piece of seared ahi layered on top of real Dungeness crab salad, served on toasted ciabatta with side of your choice. The ciabatta was unfortunately pretty soft and the sandwich could've benefitted from crusty bread. Next time I might ask about having it on sourdough. The ahi was seared nicely and the Dungeness crab was cold and sweet, but overall it lacked seasoning, which I remedied by adding the warm coconut shrimp taco's sauce to it. We had the special Dungeness crab quesadilla, also good but definitely needed sauce. My kids had pancakes and nearly licked the plate clean. My wife had the southwestern salad with grilled chicken. It was an impressive salad but the chicken was a bit dry and I tasted a lot of cumin too. With the dressing added, it mellowed a bit. There were a lot of menu items I wanted to try and I'll be sure to be back soon. Reservations are absolutely required, especially for weekends, so call well in advance! read more

I haven't been to Stone House in years. Not sure why. I definitely have saved those moments for summer, outdoor eating season because once you walk inside, the mood/vibe is dead. Anyways... Came for Easter Brunch and now have a renewed zeal for this place. I'm not a huge fan of big, page after page menus but I get theirs. Each one of our plates were "nothing to complain about" that's a joy! My lamb burger-sans the bun was cooked just to my request and the side salad was truly notable. One of my guests ordered the chicken caprese sandwich and it was drool worthy. Nice server, considering the place was packed to overflow everything flowed nicely. Although we were seated at the table directly adjacent to the parking lot, and some could say, least desirable, we had no complaints. I re-toured the rest of the outdoor seating before leaving and it's really one of the most lovely outdoor dining venues around! Last time I was here the hedges were at knee height. Traffic coming and going at this busy intersection was right up in your face. Hedges are currently over my head and it's become a secret garden! Love. Love! read more

Visited again for dinner and tried the paella special. The portion was huge and the seafood was plentiful. Our waiter was great-visited the table frequently enough to check on us but not too frequently. We ate on the front porch which was surprisingly warm with the heaters and canvas walls. read more

We have been coming to stone house for years and is one of our favorite breakfast places. We usually try to get there early as it can be a long wait due to the popularity. During the summer we love sitting outside on the patio. They have some of the best French Toast which is a normal go to option. They use a nice thick cut of ciabatta bread. The omelets are also very good and side potatoes. Overall this is a solid spot for breakfast. They also have lunch and dinner options that I have not tried but need to one day. read more

New owners at Stone House Cafe in reno, some of my favorite items deleted from the new menu, and of course the big increase in prices. Dogs not allowed anymore. A lot of the old staff left with the previous owners. I put my order in and waited almost half an hour for my meal. Waiter apologized, it wasn't his fault. They were not that busy either for a Saturday at 12:30. I'll try other places before I go back, I have been a regular for over ten years. Two stars out of five. read more

My waiter, David was so happy to see me again! He knew my name, and the fact that I love their oysters on the half shell! Stone house Café is under new management and ownership! Stewart is an absolute gentleman and amazing person. He sat with me for a little bit while I talked about some of my personal issues lol very sweet guy. I think he's gonna do great here! He is the new owner. Their menu is the same. As usual, I ordered my favorite appetizer oysters on the half shell (best in the USA!) But I had the calves liver, which I know most people don't like it, but I love it. Perfectly cooked very tender everything perfect temperature. The atmosphere in here is very calm very relaxing today. I think it actually has a lot to do with Stewarts presence , hasn't been so good and some less than good experiences last year, but today was great. I can't wait to come back again! The new and wonderful vibe made me feel like a valued customer. While that's not my aim, Stuart taking time to notice I was eating alone, and to share some of his experience strength and hope with me about life lol made me realize that this is really a down home family owned caring with a passion for excellence in dining place for the best experience in Reno, come cost Stewart and his exceptional service, food, and authenticity!! read more

We had reservations at The Stone House the evening before Mother's Day and it was honestly one of the most disappointing dining experiences we've had in Reno. The problems started almost immediately. It was easily close to an hour before we received our entrees, and even the salad that arrived beforehand was wilted with a watered-down dressing. By the time the main courses finally came out, the experience had already gone downhill. The steaks arrived extremely undercooked, but our server was nowhere to be found for long stretches of time so there was no easy way to address it. The sweet potato fries were undercooked and literally soaked in oil, the sautéed vegetables were served sitting in a pool of oil, and the mashed potatoes were cold by the time they hit the table. What made the experience even worse was the atmosphere and attitude from the staff. We should have realized what kind of night it was going to be when employees started closing umbrellas around empty tables while guests were still dining. It became obvious the focus was entirely on preparing for Mother's Day brunch the next morning instead of taking care of the customers already there. At one point we finally mentioned our frustration to a passing server who wasn't even assigned to our table because ours had disappeared again. He went to find our server, and we overheard him instruct him to offer us a complimentary dessert as an apology. That never happened either. The combination of miserable service, poorly prepared food, and what felt like a completely insincere attempt to smooth things over made the entire evening frustrating and disappointing. There are too many good restaurants in Reno to spend this kind of money on an experience like this. We won't be returning. read more

I avoided this place for 8 years! It's great to be back. You can't beat the outside patio for brunch. The staff seemed happy, and attentive. The overall vibe was like a breath of fresh air. Congrats to the new ownership-- I wish you the best of luck. read more

Amazing, fresh food with lots of fruits and greens. Wonderful menu. Beautiful patio seating and great staff. Do not go if you're on a time limit!! Worth your time read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Reno! Set in an old stone house, the ambiance is welcoming and comfortable. The service was friendly, informative, and prompt. Nathan was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. He suggested the perfect wine. My food was amazing. We stated with oysters, clams, gazpacho, and clams casino which were all done to perfection with a pleasing presentation. We ordered lamp (which fell off the bone), my husband, stuffed sole, and friend steak/crab. Tiramisu topped off the experience. There's a reason it's my favorite place. read more

I was somewhat disappointed. I made a reservation for 4 people on Sunday Mothers Day. we had a nice table outside and we all placed our order. one person ordered an iced tea and didn't receive it until near the end of his meal. the lady asked for bacon with her burger, again didn't receive until she asked twice and her burger was finished. she ate the bacon alone. I ordered the Halibut ( special that night). Halibut is a relatively inexpensive fish and $59 seemed excessive . the vegetables were undercooked and stone cold. our server David complained to us that he was exhausted and was there since 9 am. not our problem. but we smiled and remained polite. I've had wonderful breakfasts and lunches before at Stone House and will likely continue going there. hoping that night was just a bad night . read more

So glad I returned to this restaurant to give it another try. We came on a rainy morning looking for a cozy spot to grab some breakfast. They seated us right away and service was excellent! Their menu is vast with many options. I ordered a pumpkin spice latte and the Kale Hash with eggs. The latte was great but the kale hash was incredible! I would definitely get it again! read more

Took a chance on this place. Parking lot was packed. Line was surprisingly quick and we had no wait once we got to the check in. Service was great! Server gave us the run down of so many specials. Not sure how she had so much memorized. Husband was delighted with the shrimp and grits with chorizo gravy. I had a scramble that was also delicious. We sat inside as it was first available but so complaints! It looks nice to sit outside as well. Food service was prompt. We were in and out in about an hour. We look forward to going back. read more

My son and I ordered coconut shrimp and fish tacos for late lunch, and they were great! I'm sorry I didn't took a photo of the food. The server is very kind and accommodating. I love the ambiance-- relaxing in the eye. Although it was a bit chilly, we sat by the veranda, seeing flowers and hearing the flow of the water in its water fountain.

Excellent variety, and always great food and great service. I've never been disappointed!

The host wasn't the nicest but our waitress was great! It took a good while to get our food we got the kids food we ordered earlier but they about finished their food and started to fuss by the time we got ours. Didn't get a picture but I got the coconut prawns and was a bit disappointed to only see 5 small prawns. To be fair it is an appetizer but for $15 I feel like maybe one more would have been a little more worth it and the sauce tasted a bit chemically like cleaning product taste to it so I ate them without. I did also get the green chile chicken pozole and it was delicious so I'm glad I also got that! I got the blueberry Italian soda to drink which was also pretty good! A worker also helped fix us some shade cause it got sunny outside where we sat so that was super nice. read more
