i visited stoney river for the first time on new years eve. we made a reservation for 8:00pm, but were not sat until about 8:20pm. the restaurant has a chic and cozy atmosphere, which makes it great for a date night. once sat, the waitress took our drink orders. the drinks, including waters, probably took about 15 minutes. we did not receive any bread until much later after that. after placing our order, the service still seemed to be sub-par, especially for the prices. i understand that it was a holiday and the restaurant was very busy, but a part of the cost for the food, is to receive reasonably attentive service. i ordered a 7oz legendary steak with mashed potatoes and asparagus. the steak was very nicely seasoned, cooked, and presented. the flavors and tenderness of the steak were perfect. the mashed potatoes were a huge let down. the were very bland and dry, and had the texture of instant potatoes. the asparagus was steamed well and had a great texture. overall, i probably would not return. although the restaurant had a chic atmosphere, the service received, coupled with the high prices, just is not worth the cost. my tab, for a 7oz steak, two sides, and one alcoholic drink came to about $60. not including a tip. will not return.
