My party of 3 arrived around 7 on a Friday night and we're seating in about 10-15 minutes. It was a…read morebusy night, there wasn't an open space at the bar, so we were so thankful to be seated without reservations. The interior is nicely decorated, and for a smaller (than most) restaurant on a busy Friday night, we got our food and drinks pretty quickly. I ordered the Caesar salad with steak - I ordered medium well but got it well done, but the added my cooked onions to the meal and I was content. My mom and aunt ordered the short rib and they enjoyed their dishes. This is a cute place to catch up with friends, go on a date, or bring the little ones. Happy this is in the area!

There are plenty of options for food, beer, wine, and cocktails, which makes it easy for groups. Service was exceptional on both visits. Friendly, attentive, and well paced without feeling rushed. That stood out and made both meals more enjoyable. Inside, the setup is comfortable and casual with a lively but manageable atmosphere. It is a good place for a meal or just drinks. The Stones is located right in downtown Stoneham and has easy off street parking, which is a plus. On my visits, I had the cheeseburger flatbread once and a steak the other time. Both were good. When I have been in others ordered the salmon, cheeseburger, and Cobb salad, and everything looked solid. No complaints from anyone. Overall, this is a reliable and easy place to come back to. Good food, strong service, and a setting that works for a range of occasions. I would come back anytime.

The menu features unique, creative culinary twists, with large portion sizes offered at affordable prices. Flatbreads are huge - the size of a shareable pizza! The shortrib sandwich should be renamed to "everything but the kitchen sink" because that thing was stuffed to the brim. The fish tacos are a standout item for me though. The fish was fresh and perfectly crusted. While cabbage slaw isn't always a personal favorite, their unique mango pineapple slaw is excellent and worth eating down to the last bite. It is a solid, reliable choice for a satisfying and value-forward meal in a comfortable, casual setting if you're in the area.

A cute bar across where you enter in and open seating in the rest of the space. Greeted by the waitress who also cheffed up my delectable, cheeky pints right from the draft spigots. Such a nice host who made me feel welcomed and recommended some great choices. I went with the special of the day, the pickle brined chicken sandwich with a side of chips and their charred scallion dip. The chicken was crispy & crunchy on the outside with succulent, juicy chicken thigh on the inside. That pickle brine worked wonders. The chips are homemade and exactly what you want from a crisp and that charred scallion dip was so addicting I was scooping the rest with a fork when I ran out of chips (would have licked it out if no fork). Vibes great, beers cold, food absolutely divine. I will surely be back to try more menu items (the pierogies looked money from another patron's plate) and to delete more beers.

Vast. Like, "do-I-need-a-compass-to-navigate-this" vast, with plenty of options. It's always amusing to me how different parts of the U.S. have their own regional food quirks (like here in MA, where steak tips, roast beef sandwiches, and open-faced turkey sammies reign supreme). I was stuck between a couple of local specialties, but our delightful waitress, Haley, steered me in the direction of the Thanksgiving turkey sandwich, mentioning they roast a turkey every day (cue angels singing). I swapped out the fries for onion rings, because, duh! This sandwich? It could have fed a small village. It was a beast. A delicious beast, but an unwieldy one. I ended up abandoning the bread for the good stuff and tackled it with a knife and fork. All in all? Absolutely scrumptious. Bonus points for the bathrooms, which were clean as a whistle, and fear not! If you're afraid of missing the a Celtics 3 pointer or a Red Sox baseball toppling over the "green monstah" while nature calls, there's a giant screen perfectly viewable from the toilet. Yes, you can literally watch the game while you pee. Talk about a win-win situation!

I…read moreordered the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich, and it was pleasantly good with great flavor and just the right amount of sweetness and heat. The fries were a little underwhelming and just so-so, but they certainly didn't take away from the overall experience. What really stood out was the service. The wait staff and bartender were incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming, making the atmosphere feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. If you're in the Woburn area and looking for a casual spot to grab a bite, catch a game, and enjoy good service, don't skip this place. I'd definitely stop in again the next time I'm back in Massachusetts.

I asked for a medium rare burger and they gave me a well done burger. Looking back at this I don't know how I even ate 60% of the burger. It was borderline unbeatable.

Therefore it wasn't plain.

Instead of having a waiter or waitress, we had to use their app. to order. We were tired from a long day of working and want to go out and relax and not have to figure out an app. We were lucky to have our son there to figure it out. They should get waiters and waitresses. We really liked the place and the food was good, but I hope they get waiters and waitresses because we may be reluctant to go back because of that.

Nice little evening at Rising Eagle with my roommate! Went out for a girls night and came in on a…read moreFriday night with a short wait. Was greeted by our server and looked at the menus. Rising Eagle is different as you do your own ordering yourself by your phone via QR code. You do all the work and the food comes out eventually. It's a fine option but it's hard when you have allergies and have questions. I had a question over the special of the day if it was GF and I got the waiter to check, it wasn't and he recommended a food item that could be GF- it ended up not being GF. So having wait staff knowing the menus could be important. Not many options or sides for gluten free so I had a grilled sandwich and a side of beans, expensive and tiny chicken on the sandwich (the chicken was about 3/4 of the GF bun). Disappointing but it tasted good. For having us order ourselves, the order came out wrong -wasn't read correctly. Was whatever, wasn't going to flag down someone for it. Still had a nice time, it will probably be awhile before I come back again even living 4 min away. It is super cute inside thought, would be best for cocktails!

This tiny place known for their namesake mini patty melts on homemade brioche has gotten bigger and…read moreexpanded the menu. But the beef is still the reason I come. Butter is collateral (and arterial) damage. -- Snappy Pattys: Thin patties of beef get griddled and placed between slices of bread no thicker than your finger and no wider than a KFC biscuit. You'll taste the condiment configuration of choice (I like the Texan for its zippy bacon-laced melted cheese), but you'll taste butter first and foremost, which can be daunting. The surfaces of the bread don't get much browning and the beef was less beefy and less seasoned than I remember from a few years back. Although these never blow me away, they're a nice little novelty that's always worth a taste. -- Patty Melt: The full size format offers a third of a pound of beef (looked thicker) between larger slices of the same type of bread. Not much outer texture or browning, but the interior was moist. Minimal beef flavor, with butter again on overdrive-- much too much of it-- but this time mitigated by the complementary flavors (according to the menu, roasted chili & bacon sauce, tomato, iceberg, blue cheese & avocado aioli). Still enjoyable, though the lack of browning (on bread and beef) and the veering of the ingredients from traditional (no caramelized onion, no rye) kept it from scratching that patty melt itch. Nice place, and I've enjoyed previous visits. And the fried chicken as well as the namesake mini melts. But the quest for the elusive killer patty melt continues.
