Our server was Amber and she was great!! She was very polite, went over our menu and ensure our drinks were full without us asking! Major plus when you have a server who keeps an eye on you. My husband and I had the our steaks cooked as we came to treat ourselves and we had cooked at home all week. LOL. I ordered chicken tortilla soup, fillet and green beans recommended per server. My husband got the sirloin and lamb chop combo, clam chowder and sweet potato. We both enjoyed our soups tremendously. Tortilla soup had a nice flavor to it had just the right amount spice to it and balance amount of ingredients. I'm not a fan of clam chowder but I tried my husband's and it was really good. I would love to try the lobster bisque but it only comes in the monster serving size and I don't believe I could eat all of that. Wish they would serve a smaller size of it. Our steaks were excellent. Cooked as we ordered and very tender! It came with the house butter. I think it was called casino. Don't quote me. We actually did not really care for it. To us it actually took away the flavor of the steak. I couldn't pinpoint the additional spice in the butter but I didn't really care for it but everyone else around us were making comments on how much they liked it. So you need to make your own opinion. We did like the steak sauce. I'm not a steak sauce person. I am a purest when it comes to eating a steak to not use anything on it no sauce, butter or ketchup etc. however I do would dip a bite or two in their steak sauce. It was good. Green beans are al dente. Atmosphere is relaxed and easy going. People were dressed from very causal to dressed up depending on what they were celebrating. The tables were nice. We sat in a booth. Initially when we sat down seat was lower than I thought but it was very comfortable. We plan to come back and do the experience of cooking on the rock and asking for Amber to be our server. read more

We had a decent mixed review meal at Black Rock. We started with the crab-stuffed mushrooms and a cup of lobster bisque, and that was an awesome way to kick things off right off the bat The mahi fish and chips were a bit on the frail side and could have been larger but they were crispy on the outside, flaky on the inside. I actually preferred the coconut shrimp over the mahi. Crunchy and cooked just right to includesome sweet marmalade on the side. My wife went with the shrimp tacos that she said was tangy and fresh, definitely easy to eat The only small letdown was the lamb chops and lobster. The lamb was so so due to being only luke earm, but the lobster came out a little cold, which was kind of a bummer Overall though, lots of good food, good variety, and will possibly return to try other options, just hoping for warmer lobster next time. Guess we'll have to cook it ourselves versus having the kitchen prepare the meal. Lesson learned read more

Amazing to start, we had an amazing waitress who made our first visit cook! We did thr coconut shrimp app & steal and lamb with tortillas soup and (at our waitress recommendation) the Brussels sprouts (she was right ) . It was not only a delicious meal, but a very fun experience! We will definitely be back (brunch sounds amazing). read more

Went here on the recommendation of an acquaintance. Glad we did! The service (lunch time) was very good, and the food was excellent. We did the pretzels, and sirloin steaks on the hot rock at the table. A nice experience and we really liked the pretzel dips being served on the hot rock-hot melty cheese the entire time is a plus! read more

In town for business and stopped in to check out the "grill your own" steak option and it was great! Who knew a hot rock could cook your steak right in front of you! Finished off dinner with a red velvet dessert that was well worth sacrificing some carbs! read more

Okay, I've definitely been sleeping on this place. I was not expecting to be cooking my steak on a hot stone when I walked in but I am here for it! I honestly love a good interactive dinner. I got the steak and coconut shrimp with green beans and mac and cheese and it all was so good. I will say that I like my green beans a little less crunchy but that's me. I thought the service was great. Our waitress was nice and was fast at bringing stuff out to us so I can't complain there. Definitely will come again. read more

First time there for lunch, thought it was kinda pricey and service was slow. We did stop when it was lunchtime.

They had excellent service and great food, but you paid a lot for it. I had a late lunch, so there was very few folks in there. I was seated right away. The waitress got my drink and my order with a very short wait. It took them a little bit to make the food, understandably, and it was delicious. And it was very nice steak. And they had an excellent herbed butter to put on it. It is a very nice place, and a great date place. I can take my sweetie there on our anniversary or valentines day. It is not a casual stop in for lunch unless you have extra money. read more

My overall experience was horrible. I visited this establishment on 7/12/2026 and ordered one of their hot stone specials. As a person who's visited the restaurant in the past I am aware of the concept and process. Once I received my food both sides were lukewarm and my crab legs were still cold. I politely asked the manager for assistance with the cold food that was just delivered to the table. He reheated and sides and brought me fresh crab legs. This is where the real problem occurred. While eating the first crab leg there was 2 pieces of hair on my food. At this point I've had it. Speak to the manager again and he takes the crab legs away as he should. The waiter informs me that the crab legs will be taken off my bill and nothing else. I'm sorry but unacceptable and unsanitary. Also keep in mind I refused to eat any of my food once I found the two pieces of hair. At this point I don't trust anything leaving the kitchen and don't see myself visiting this establishment ever again. The manager also had a dismissive attitude when I brought the hair to his attention. The fact that you expect people to eat food that contains another persons DNA is absurd!!! read more

When you first walk in this place reeks of fish like smelly fish. It was absolutely awful to the staff. Did not feel friendly or give off welcoming vibes when we got there our waitress took forever to greet us. I saw her maybe three times during the whole visit we ordered burgers they were overcooked tasted like fish. The onion rings we ordered tasted like fish and our fries tasted like fish my baked potato, which was a two dollar up charge tasted like somebody had left it sitting out on the counter after the microwave for way too long there was no flavor in the potato. I messed up the order for my son, which was just a simple burger, meat cheese, no bun and somehow that got messed up. The smell was awful. The food was awful and after requesting that my dinner be removed because I just could not eat it because of how fishy my hamburger tasted and how flavorless and tough my potato was our bill was still $51.65. We definitely won't be back. read more

Food was solid. Service was not. Slow to greet, slow to serve, multiple trips while not following up on a request from a trip before. Will definitely NOT go back here. read more

My food was very late so it was cold. Forgot my soup which should have come first. Bad service, very bad food, and at outrageous prices. You literally have to take a running start just to get up into seats. This place is very overrated read more

Well made the mistake of coming back a couple years later. Service is still terrible. Took forever to get drinks, food. I'll never come back. Too many other options in same area. read more

An excellent experience for our group of seven friends. The menu was extensive, definitely something for everyone including vegetarians and gluten free. I had the best Impossible burger I've ever had, it was cooked in their BBQ sauce and was absolutely delicious. My baked potato was huge, and perfectly baked. Several people in my group ordered steaks and they were all very pleased. For dessert we shared a Volcano, this had to be seen to be appreciated. Complete with a sparkler on top, it is an impressive presentation. It was very tasty too, the brownie was warm and tasty underneath the ice cream. Service was great and we didn't have to wait to get a table for seven on a Saturday night, although we did see people waiting when we left. read more

Kudos to our server Emily, who made sure we were well taken care of, I ordered a full rack of ribs along with a loaded mashed potato and a salad. My sister ordered the state, shrimp, and scallops with asparagus. Everything was cooked to Perfection. My sister did say her steak was just a tad bit tough, but other than that, it was fine. Beautiful atmosphere and a fun time, we will be back. Thank you for all your hard work and service. read more

Was in Dayton for a dance competition and decided to try Black Rock. We had never heard of it but decided to give it a try. Went in around 5:15 and sat at the bar. Anna was very friendly and helped us right away. After greeting us she asked if we had ever been to the restaurant before. We said no and she proceeded to tell us about their signature steaks that are served on a 700 degree stone and you cook them yourselves!!! Sounded cool! (Side note: you can also get a steak cooked in the kitchen if you'd like) Anyway we split some shrimp appetizer and two salad's and a 12 oz sirloin cooked on the stone. It was amazing and really fun. I highly recommend if you are in the Beavercreek area. read more

The food was awesome. I like the Black lava rock experience.The fillet mignon and lamb was delicious

God. Awful. Service. Absolutely horrible. Got the worst cocktail i've ever had, then the waitress told me that apparently they can't take off poorly made drinks off the menu. to top it off- the waitress was not only god awful, but she was extremely rude as well. My fries were cold, our soups were cold, the shrimp appetizer was cold, and we waited for drinks, refills, and our meals for an extended period of time. I don't typically have bad service here, but today was particularly bad. read more

I discovered this place this past April, and I regret not trying it earlier. I have since been four times. Each and every time I go, I get the same thing... the lamb chops. They are so good. I love cooking, so I love the black rock concept. The sides are tasty. My only complaint is the table size in comparison to all the dishes, plates, black rocks, etc. it can get really clunky. But the food is exceptional. The drinks are good. Everyone I have taken has enjoyed their experience. Will go again. read more

If you want a basic steak and you're looking for a unique outing, then you found the right place. I wanted to love this restaurant so I decided to give it a second chance. As soon as my food arrived to the table, I regretted my decision to return. Here's a few tips - Ask specific questions about the side items. I ordered the asparagus as a side item and I received 4 stalks. That's right 4 pieces of asparagus. It looked like there were pieces missing from my plate so I asked my waitress if the order was supposed to come with only 4 pieces of asparagus. To my surprise, she responded with "Yes and I don't know why they do that. I just work here." That was an indicator that she heard this complaint before. Secondly, I love seafood but the lobster bisque was very sweet and fatty. It had an unflattering after taste. Avoid it and order something else. Lastly, the ambiance is okay if you don't mind smelling like smoke for the rest of the night. Truthfully, the smoke didn't bother me because I've been to the restaurant before and I knew what to expect but I could tell a bunch of customers were bothered by the intensity of the smoke in the air. All in all...I would not recommend this place for a birthday celebration. I made that choice and left very disappointed. read more

Black Rock Bar & Grill - Literally 4 pieces! Seriously. I do not recommend. Overpriced. - Bars Near Me - Beavercreek, Ohio

Someone recommended this place and recently while we were in the area, we stopped by for lunch here. As everyone else has mentioned, it smells very very smoky inside. I feel that they can benefit from installing individual vent like how indoor KBBQ grill usually do at each table to address this issue. Other than that, the place is spacious with more TVs than you can count on one hand. Really nice place to take a large group of people. Our server was basically a one-woman army, juggling tables like a pro while also moonlighting as the barkeep. Talk about multitasking! Now, onto the main event: we opted in for the 755° Volcanic Stone to cook our meat ourselves. We kicked things off with the Bubbling Shrimp on a Stone - plump crustaceans swimming in a pool of cajun buttery goodness, sizzling atop the volcanic rock, with delicious crispy garlic bread for dunking. For mains, he went all in with the Tour of Black Rock - a carnivore's dream featuring a 6 oz sirloin, three jumbo shrimps, and a scallop that was smoother than a politician's speech, with sides of green beans and house salad. Meanwhile, I opted for the Steak and Ribs combo, a feast fit for a king (or a very hungry peasant like me). A 6 oz. signature sirloin plus a half slab of their signature ribs. The ribs may have missed the mark on that smoky flavor, but they still packed a punch and juicy. For the complimentary sides I picked their loaded baked potato and clam chowder. The clam chowder was very liquid-y like plain milk instead of the thick texture that I'm used to. The loaded baked potato was large and filling. I overestimated my hunger cause I ended up not being able to eat most of what I ordered, and had to get a doggy bag. Our server gave clear instruction about how she had grilled one side of our sirloin and that all that was left for us to do was to cut the steak into bite size and put them on the hot volcanic stone. She also referred us to the cooking time on the booklet infront of us. Our only complaint was that the steak knives weren't sharp enough, we had a hard time to slice them into bite size. One important thing is that the stone will lose its heat after about 15 minutes or so, when the stone starts to cool down, it makes a lot of difference on how the meat will be cooked. But fear not, a quick word to the wise server and you'll be back in sizzling business with a new stone complete with fresh salt too. I ended up cooking the last few bites of my steak on his new hot rock cause the heat on mine also died down. The sirloin was great, and he liked his shrimps. I tried a bite of his scallop, it was so buttery and melted in your mouth goodness. I'm aware they have good desserts as well, but we were so stuffed that we could barely breathe so we definitely missed out on that. All and all, the volcanic stone itself is worth the experience--a feast for the senses and a surefire way to impress your guests. read more

I was in the Dayton area for work and I stopped in at Black Rock Bar & Grill on Valentines Day for lunch. From the outside, the building looks huge and it is huge once you step inside. I was greeted and was asked if I wanted a table or if I wanted to sit at the bar. Since it was just me, I took the bar option. I sat down and was given a menu by the bartender. The menu is as massive as the restaurant! While I was looking at the menu choices, a couple more people came and sat at the bar. Like me, they were by themselves. I took a quick look around and noticed that all the people by themselves were at the bar and all the tables/booths had couples. LOL I ordered the Rock Burger and a beer. The restaurant wasn't all that busy so my food was delivered pretty quickly. The Rock Burger is a decent sized beef patty with mozzarella cheese, applewood smoked bacon, lettuce, tomato, pickle, red onion, and rock sauce. I think rock sauce is probably ketchup or a mild BBQ sauce mixed with mayo, and spices. It's pretty basic. The burger was cooked just as I requested and wasn't bad. I wasn't a fan of the fries. They had some kind of coating on them which didn't look great and tasted meh. I can't remember what brand of beer I had, but it was local and an IPA. Overall, I had a decent lunch. My food was hot and relatively tasty. The staff was friendly and helpful. I've read some of reviews where the person was complaining about the cost. I have to say, the cost seems to be in line with most restaurants nowadays. That's the thing. It is costing more to eat out and we either go with it or we just stop going out. Personally, I only go out during the week, while I am out of town for work. Most of the time I stay home and cook for myself on weekends, unless I have plans with someone. I say give Black Rock Bar & Grill a try. read more

I surprised my wife by taking her here for her birthday. I called earlier in the day as the site suggests obtaining priority seating. When I called, they basically stated that the priority seating request isn't a reservation, but it does cut down your waiting time. When we arrived, I gave them my name, and we were seated within 3-5 minutes. Our waiter greeted us with a lot of enthusiasm. He was very friendly and helped us understand how everything worked. This was our first time at Black Rock, so his explanation was very helpful. My wife and I ordered the Dynamic Duo, which features filet medallions and bubbling shrimp. This entree also comes with two complimentary sides. I ordered the aspargus and mashed potatoes. The food took a little longer than expected to arrive. I guess I figured since we were cooking our own steak, it should've come out a little faster. When the food arrived, we were excited to start cooking. Our server brought us some Casino butter to cook with along with the Black Rock sauce. The cooking process was fairly easy, but I would ignore the cook times on the menu. My wife and I both cooked our medallions much longer than the suggested times. But that could've been due to how the medallions were cut. The asparagus was delicious, seasoned to perfection, and full of flavor. It's probably the best aspargus I have ever had. The mashed potatoes were just okay. My wife got loaded mash and hers were better. The bubbling shrimp was the star of the show for me. Whatever sauce they used to serve them in was amazing. I found myself pouring that into my mashed potatoes, and I even dipped some of my medallions into it. The Black Rock sauce is similar to Yum Yum sauce, and it was very tasty. The medallions weren't bad, but I think next time, I will request some more seasoning to use to cook it. The only complaint we had was that it was extremely cold inside of the restaurant, we must've been sitting directly below a vent. Overall, my wife and I really enjoyed our experience at Black Rock. Customer Service 1-5=5. Filet Medallions 1-5=4. Bubbling Shrimp 1-5=5. Aspargus 1-5=5. Mashed Potatoes 1-5=2. read more

Was in town on business, felt like a steak dinner. Ate at the bar. Service was very good, didn't have to wait much at all. The gimmick of cooking your own steak was fun. Sports-Bar atmosphere.

Stuffed!!!! Stopped in for dinner and it was packed. However I do believe you can do call ahead seating. once we got seated, we enjoyed our dining experience. For appetizers we had the spinach and artichoke dip, and volcano shrimp. Both appetizers served on a hot black stone to keep it warm. As for the dinner I ordered ststeak. It was perfect! You have the choice of having your steak cooked or you can cook it at the table via a black stone. I also enjoyed the strawberry fields salad with my meal, it was so delicious! You will definitely walk away stuffed! Stop in, and enjoy! read more

We went here on Farhers Day and they had Priority Seating reservations. We got seated immediately. The food was good but do have them cook your steak in the back. Cooking it on the rock is ok but the steak was not medium rare as it cooks very fast. Our waiter was fabulous. No rolls or bread for the table and the decor was minimal. read more

To be honest with the Yelp reviews I doubt I would have gone to this restaurant without it being a meetup not planned by me. First I have to say the waitress with the spider tattoo was excellent. Sorry I didn't get your name. It was happy hour so I ordered a Sangria and an appetizer of mozzarella sticks. As you can see in the picture they were burned and pretty much inedible. I didn't complain because of the group I was with. It just didn't seem worth calling attention to the whole mess. I won't go back. read more

Who doesn't want to cook their own steak on a stone at their table! I was excited about this little adventure and the steak was no disappointment. First off, I really liked the atmosphere, it was bright and you could hear the steaks sizzling at people's tables. I ordered a strawberry and apple fields salad that had their delicious house apple vinaigrette. Then we ordered an appetizer of the volcanic shrimp which the sauce was incredible! Ended up using some of the sauce for my steak afterwards. : ) And then...THE STEAK!!! ooooo la la.....so fun to watch it sizzle on the stone and cook to our own liking. Everything tasted fabulous and I've told many people about it so far. The experience and the food were fabulous! read more

It made it look really pretty! For appetizer we got the spinach dip and the pretzels. Both were VERY good and flavorful!! For my meal I got the 12oz sirloin with a salad, baked potato and creamed corn. I loved how I got to cook the steak myself. I was able to make sure the seasoning and temperature was just right.

This was by far one of the worst steak houses I've ever attended. The waiter was fine no issues there. It was the steak that made me so mad. They had a special for a medallion filet for $49, comes with 2 sides, I was supposed to get to 5 oz medallions. Well I received 4-5 steak sliders that was not cooked medium. The meat was so tough I couldn't eat but 2 bites. Now my side items was the highlight of show. I had a fruit salad and a loaded baked potato. I ordered a side of shrimp to pair with the steak but I also had to return it because it was over seasoned I almost had a HTN crisis! I Drunk 3 glasses of water to help facilitate the sodium, literally! I ordered a cocktail it was very very pretty with glitter literally in the drink, it was just light on the liquor. I went with friends, we all shared the appetizer ribs and they were just ok. I wouldn't order them again. One had a side of scallops and she loved them but also returned her steak b/c we had the same steaks, the other person ordered a New York strip and Ribs they were every pleased. The outside of the building gave me $$$$ vibes so we overdressed. Once we walked in the attire was Applebees vibes jeans and a tee. read more

I have no complaints with service here. We were here on a Saturday night with a fairly large party. This restaurant has a pretty interesting concept. You order your beef and/or seafood and you cook it at the table on a very hot stone. Across from me at another table, I could see a patron placing thin slices of raw beef on this incredibly hot black rock. It smelled good as the meat seared to doneness. I think this would be a good place for a nice date. I didn't have the steak though. I do prefer someone to cook my steak for me at a nice steak house. I had the cheddar burger with a side of green beans. The burger was decent. It was a little bit over cooked past my request for medium. The bun held up nicely. The green beans were seasoned and cooked well. I had a nice time eating at The Black Rock! read more
