Food: Good, I ordered a mixture of meat lovers omelette and the veggie, plus wanted cheese, avocado and jalapeños. They didn't add the veggies inside the omelet, they put it on the side & forgot the cheese, avocado and jalapeños, otherwise it was delicious especially the side veggies were nice & Grilled. Service: The servers were very nice Ambiance: modern, dark and cool vibe Price:$$$ read more

First time trying the dinner menu at Blackstone. We were pleasantly surprised by how delicious and authentic the mole was. The order comes with 2 large (and stuffed) enchiladas and a side of rice and beans. My husband tapped out before he finished the plate, the enchiladas were generously filled with chicken. I had the Rib Eye tacos, which is technically an appetizer. The tacos were large and very filling. Bonus, the tacos come with a trio of sauces which were delicious. Also, both plates were beautifully presented. Overall, the food and ambiance were superb and we will definitely be back. read more

What a great little restaurant. It's lovely inside and on the small side. It was almost perfect. I'll start with the food: The PAN SEARED SCALLOPS were cooked perfectly! The sauce was surprisingly complimentary, the mashed potatoes were tasty but the asparagus was awful. It had a bitter taste and no seasoning at all. I'd get the broccolini next time. My hubby got the FILLET MIGNON and he was in heaven. He keeps asking to go back every day! We shared the PAN DE ELOTE and it was good, but I wish they would've had another option besides cheesecake. The restaurant is dark, too dark. It's really hard to read the menus. I kept getting blinded by people's cell phone flashlights being used to see the menu. They need to turn up the lights, a tad. I couldn't even see how much salt and pepper I was putting on the unseasoned asparagus they served me. I ended up over seasoning it. The restaurant is pretty small so I can see why you would need reservations. We showed up before they opened on a Sunday and were seated us away without the reservation, but I wouldn't try that on a Saturday or later in the evening! They did have an amazing cook on the scallops and the filet mignon, so I would definitely come back and would love to try some more things because all the plates that the servers were bringing out looked absolutely amazing. If they would season their veggies and turn up some lights I would give them five stars! read more

The food was absolutely delicious! As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted since we were the first guests there. We had reservations for 5:15, and our waitress was incredibly kind and attentive. We ordered the 16 oz. ribeye steak, and wow--it practically melted in your mouth! The French fries tasted fresh and homemade, not frozen at all. The mashed potatoes is real potato, not powdery ! love. The horchata is so good, can't go wrong w horchata. I will say it felt a little awkward at first because we were the only ones in the restaurant, so it was very quiet. But as more people arrived, the atmosphere really came to life. The soft, soothing music gave off elegant wedding reception vibes, making the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and I'd definitely come back! read more

I think the service just gets worse and worse every time I come here. The food is not standout. I think if you're looking for something with a nice ambiance, this place will be OK for a local option in corona. The second time I came here, I didn't even get napkins for the table. The server never came back to check on us after the initial order. I had to walk inside to request napkins. Also, if you come after their initial morning or afternoon rush, they welcome you with displeasure, almost shocked that you would choose to grace the establishment past 12. Thankfully I just wanted a drink, but I was floored to see them look at me. I got several states snd only one person said hello and offered service. One guy was setting the tables and looked at me with the worst face. The same one who flickered the lights the first time I was there. Honestly so rude and I hope they train their staff on service. It's really not the best here. After three visits I probably won't be coming back again for a while. The only standout thing is their banana latte. Food is mediocre and service is underwhelming. read more

Food was appetizing; nicely presented. Cocktails was on point. Great atmosphere for a lunch with family and friends.

It was my first time here for my birthday & I'm so glad I was brought here! The staff was extremely friendly , went on a week day for breakfast/ brunch. The ambiance was nice, dimmed lights and a great layout and decor. I had a bite of my friends breakfast empanadas - they were to DIE FOR. The sauces with them were delish too! I would honestly go back just for those. My main dish was the chilaquiles with the tamatillo sauce & it was a 10/10! The chips are for sure made in house along with the sauce. I also had a side of chipotle sauce and it was creamy and delicious! I asked for 1/2 and 1/2 sauce wise, but was told they could only be on the side which was fine. The SKIRT STEAK WAS ABSOLUTELY DEVINE and I am craving it every second I don't have it. It was literally PERFECT and the best I've ever had!!! Only complaint is service time. The food came out quick, however , our waitress took awhile to check on us the entire visit so we had to flag staff down I'll be back read more

Don't even bother. This place is a steak house with pretty make up. Nothing special about the service or food. The decor was nice and the restaurant smelled good. There are some touches of luxury but the customer service and food were not apart of that package. I've been waiting to try this place for at least 4 months and I was really disappointed, I wanted to like this place so bad. Also don't get me wrong the food was good but you want it to be great when the prices are that high. I ordered the queso fundido it was good but again not great. I also had the filet mignon the sides were mashed potatoes and broccolinni. It was cooked the way I wanted and it was good but I am expecting great because of the price and luxury appeal they are trying to promote. My waiter checked on me 5 times with a minute break in between each check in and it was right when he dropped the plate off. As soon as I actually needed something we were ignored for half an hour with no drink no anything. We ordered another drink and he only brought one and forgot the other. It was my girls birthday and it was just really disappointing. I can go on and on but to summarize I will not be back. Not worth it at all. This place is overhyped and overpriced. read more

Came here for a Sunday brunch after a graduation celebration. To say the service wasn't great is an understatement, and honestly, it's not the best place for families. During our meal, the drink waitress accidentally dropped two full drinks all over my 4-year-old niece. It was a literal waterfall pouring over her. Her dress was completely drenched, and she was covered in drinks and ice. Her mom also had coffee spilled all over her dress and shoes. Thankfully, we had extra clothes in the car, but it was still a pretty upsetting experience -- especially for a child. Our main waiter did come over and offered 20% off the meals and 3 free desserts for our party of 11. We appreciated that gesture, and the waitress herself seemed genuinely apologetic. We understand accidents happen. However, when we asked to speak with the manager, his response completely changed the tone of the experience. He didn't seem apologetic at all. We explained that we didn't feel 20% off was enough considering what happened, and he responded with, "I don't know how two people getting drinks on them means you all get free meals." I understand that expecting the entire tab to be covered may have been a stretch, but the issue was more about the lack of empathy and customer service. Dining out is about the overall experience, and his tone made the situation worse. He could have simply offered another solution or responded with more understanding. After that interaction, the service noticeably declined. Staff rarely checked on our table, while the manager continued warmly interacting with other guests nearby. The reason I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1 is because the food itself was actually very good. Unfortunately, the overall experience overshadowed it. read more

We came to this restaurant to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday on a Sunday. We had a reservation for 12:45pm but I received a text about 30 minutes before our reservation that our table was already ready. We got sat down right away and the service was fantastic! The restaurant is a very aesthetic, clean, and lively environment. Our server was German and he was amazing! He was consistently checking on us and our food came very quickly! The food was amazing as well. We ordered the chicken avocado sandwich with truffle fries, french toast, and savory empanadas. Everything was AMAZING!! 10/10 would definitely come again! read more

Visited today for the first time with a party of 7 for a birthday celebration. I everything was perfect! Parking- plenty right out front Ambiance- the restaurant is very cute and trendy. We were able to enjoy a pot out at the patio. Service- the staff was very attentive from the busser to food runners to main wait staff. No complaints! Food- very tasty! And large portions. I tried the savory empanadas which were so delish. My veggie omelette with potatoes was 9/10. Drinks- the serve Mexican Pepsi which is always yummy and the spicy Bloody Mary was on point. I ordered two! read more

The ambiance was nice, Industrial Chic with nice mood lighting and greenery. Their scent (air freshener) is amazing! I had the chicken and waffles, which was delicious! My son had the burger. It was a bit on the spicy side. He should have ordered the sauce on the side. Our server was warm and friendly. The restroom needs some dusting, but was clean ( which is why a 4 and not a 5). I want to go back for dinner. read more

I'm really disappointed with the service we received during our recent visit. We came in to celebrate a birthday, expecting at least a decent dining experience, but it fell far short. From the start, our waiter never introduced himself, which immediately set an impersonal tone. Throughout the meal, he barely checked on our table--no follow-ups to see if we needed anything, refills, or even another round of drinks. We felt completely overlooked. When it came time to pay, the situation got worse. The waiter was extremely rude and unaccommodating when we asked to split the check, making what should have been a simple request feel like an inconvenience. To top it off, despite clearly celebrating a birthday, there was no effort made to acknowledge it. Instead, we were told, "You can pay for a dessert and I can put a candle on it," which felt dismissive and took away from what was supposed to be a special occasion. On top of the service issues, our food took an unusually long time to arrive, adding to the overall frustration. Overall, the lack of attentiveness, poor attitude, and slow service made for a very disappointing experience. Server's name was Jesus read more

Blackstone Kitchen absolutely deserves all five stars! We had the chilaquiles and the French toast, and both were excellent. We also tried the empanadas and the little concha, everything was fresh, flavorful, and seriously delicious. The service was awesome from start to finish, and the ambiance made the whole experience even better. Definitely a spot worth coming back to! read more

It came with four pieces of chicken , and four waffles . I also ordered a side of scrambled eggs and potatoes . Overall the food was really good . The chicken was super juicy and nice and flavorful .

Came here for brunch with a close friend. It was very nice inside and everyone was really friendly. I got the spaghetti pancakes which were a bit dry but the fruit and Nutella side was delicious. The interior is pretty dark so its good for late night dinner dates, especially if your looking for something more upscale but still affordable. They even had a hanging stand for us to put our purses on near the table, definitely a bonus for the girls! read more

We had a group dinner this evening for a large party of 14. Let me start off by saying that the entire staff was incredibly courteous and very accommodating. We had a wide array of appetizers and the one that took me by surprise was the guacamole with steak. The ahi tuna was also delicious. For the main entree, I had the chicken Bellagio with arugula, prosciutto, chicken and pasta. Lastly, we had the pan de elote with ice cream and it was delicious. Special recognition to Jesus, he was awesome! read more

I've only come for brunch, so this review is for that. A little on the pricier side, but it matches the ambiance of the restaurant being just a bit nicer inside. Cute purse racks at some of the tables, and the food was all good. Had to take some to go! Probably great portions to share things if your party/partners like to do that. Service was pretty prompt at the beginning, and a little slower at the end. Not sure if it was just because our server was on break so someone was covering him or if it just started getting busier. Not a huge deal, this is probably a restaurant you'd expect to spend some time at anyway. read more

Make sure you make a reservation. Customers are packed in pretty good. Nicely decorated. Brunch menus could be expanded. Couldn't find exactly what I wanted. Picked the skillet and it was tasty. Needed less potatoes and more steak and another egg. Service was spotty. Plates came out at different times. The last came out half way through. It was the simplest I think the cooks missed it (slam). No apologies were given. Group of 9 and they will take multiple payments but won't split checks. Tip was included. May be back. read more

This was my first time here. I met my kids who drove up from OC and came on a Sat at about 11:30 am . The place was packed and people seemed to be enjoying themselves. For drinks, we had lemon waters and my daughter ordered an iced banana latte. I'll start by saying this was one of the reasons it didn't get 5 stars. We are usually not picky, but the banana latte was not good at all, we concluded, after three of us tried it. The waters are served in 8 oz glasses so if the server doesn't come back often for refills or to see how you're doing it is gone soon waiting to be refreshed. We ordered a melt, a steak skillet, and the mascarpone French toast . The skillet was delicious but it was definitely potato heavy with one egg and a small cut of steak on top. Steak was delicious. How could this have been better? To balance the potato-heavy skillet would have required one more egg at minimum. The mascarpone French toast was delicious and also came with a tiny container of sweetened condensed milk to pour on the toast or over the plate. My daughter was happy with her sandwich which came with a small order of fries. Portion sizes were average. The approximate cost of the bill with tip was $70-ish dollars. Ambiance- rustic, low lighting, crowded, and noise level was a 4.5 out of 5. read more

I think I came with high-expectations thinking this was a steak house quality place but was more like Yard House type food. The service was great but the food was mediocre. The filet was okay, not the best seasoning for $60 but was cooked as expected medium. The scallops had good seasoning. The shrimp pasta was okay, nothing to brag about. We had a cheese dip appetizer that came with tortillas, we asked for chips and paired much better with chips. Overall, we enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff but were underwhelmed with the food. I also had an old fashion drink that was just okay. read more

They had my attention at Blackstone Kitchen. I dined here for brunch on a Saturday at 11:15 AM for my birthday, and I must say--I'll definitely be back for dinner. From the moment you walk in, you're met with a full view of the space, almost like waiting in line with excitement for one of the hottest clubs. The best part? There wasn't a long wait (if you're smart enough to make reservations). The ambience was impressive, dim lighting, romance, elegance, and sophisticated flair. It was giving date night vibes, even though I was there with my cousin. This is not your typical brunch with loud music and dancing. It's intimate, personal, and beautiful, a place where you want to have real conversations, listen intently, and enjoy good food. Quick note: the bathrooms are small (just two stalls), but they're not industrial. These are top-of-the-line toilets that honestly made me feel at home I loved that detail! Now, why didn't I give them five stars? A few things could have elevated the experience. But let's start with the highlights: The menu has a delicious selection of appetizers, brunch items, and cocktails. Of course, drinks were first we ordered the mimosa flights. You get three glasses of champagne-heavy mimosas with gorgeous garnishes. If you love mimosas, this is the way to go. For appetizers, my cousin and I ordered the spinach and artichoke rolls. My mouth was watering... but unfortunately, our entrées came out before the appetizer, so I never got to try them. For the main course, we had the classic steak and eggs. It comes with steak, eggs made your way, potatoes, and bread. For carb lovers, this is your plate. The potatoes were crispy and delicious, and the bread was perfect for soaking up my over-easy eggs with the Alohi sauce. My only gripe...the steak was a little tough, and I didn't want to "fight" with it. I wanted it to cut like butter. Our servers, Jesus and Javier, were an absolute delight. The customer service here is top-tier, from management walking around to check on tables, to servers covering for one another and staying in communication. Service was excellent. The appetizer mishap felt more like a kitchen issue than a server issue. To their credit, the food came out very quickly. Here's a tip: if you get Javier, ask him about drinks off the menu. He put me on to one called Lorenza, sweet like candy, strong like tequila, topped with tamarind, and beautifully presented. Elegant, classy, and delicious. The vibes here are unmatched, and I'm excited to come back for dinner. If brunch is this good, dinner can only get better. Location note: Blackstone is in the Dos Lagos Plaza in Corona, and there's so much to do in the area. After brunch, we caught the trolley, toured the plaza, played VR games, and ended with Pinkberry. It made for a full day out. Now, the reasons I gave 4 stars instead of 5: * The hostess acknowledged my birthday, but there was no complimentary dessert, no birthday recognition from the servers, and no communication about whether they do anything special. * The steak was tougher than I'd like (or maybe the knife wasn't sharp enough). * We never got to try our appetizer. Even with those setbacks, I would still recommend Blackstone Kitchen. I believe every restaurant deserves a chance to redeem themselves everyone has an off day. This is definitely a vibe you don't want to miss. Bring a friend, your boo, or someone you love. Have an intimate conversation, sip on something special, and enjoy the beauty of Blackstone Kitchen. read more

I ordered chilaquiles with jalapeño sauce, eggs over easy and pork belly. The flavor was great, the eggs were done well, but the pork belly terrible. The meat was tough like shoe leather. I tried to enjoy the rest of the dish, but I'm a meat eater. The service was very good and the atmosphere was good. It was very family friendly. Please don't drop old dried out pork belly into sauce and try to repurpose it. It ruined my brunch meal. I'm not sure if I will return at this point. read more
