Menu of appetizers and sandwiches

Stillwaters is the main restaurant at the Stonewall Resort. My husband and I ate several breakfasts and dinners here, and I will summarize all of the meals in this review. Stonewall Resort's website recommends that customers make reservations for Stillwaters. I made no reservations at all, and I fortunately always received a table with no wait. All of the seating hostesses and waitresses provided timely and friendly service. The waitresses brought us frequent refills of beverages without us having to ask. I appreciate that the last waitress gave me a free small sample of yogurt with activated charcoal so I could try it. (If you are wondering, the activated charcoal made the yogurt appear dark grey and gave it a slightly gritty texture. The taste did not change much.) Customers may order off of menus (see my attached photos), or they may eat a selection of foods at the buffets, which vary slightly each day. For each of my meals, I ate at the buffet. The buffet cost $19 per person for breakfast and $34 per person for dinner. Examples of buffet foods for breakfast are pancakes, French toast, apple crisp, biscuits, grits, potatoes, bacon, sausage, muffins, cherry cobbler, scrambled eggs, hash browns, watermelon, cantaloupe, pineapple, blackberries, etcetera. Examples of buffet foods for dinner are brisket, pulled pork, prime rib, chicken, pasta salad, caesar salad, green beans, broccoli, salmon, mashed potatoes, baked beans, carrot cake, cherry pie, cheesecake, etcetera. Overall, the food tasted good. My husband said that his prime rib was "really good" and that his chicken was "juicy" and "tangy" and the "highlight" of a meal.

The food was great, you could choose from either the Stillwaters menu or the TJMuskies menu as they operate under the same kitchen. Food options were varied and not just run of the mill. Everyone in our 5 party group had no problem choosing something they liked. They offered both a dinner and breakfast buffet with many foods to choose from. The ambiance was very casual with nice decor and everything was clean. I heard one of the staff say that they are slowly renovating the space although it didn't seem outdated to me. The service was phenomenal, they were all very friendly and accommodating. Dale was one of our favorite servers. Our group ate here exclusively during our stay in one of the Lakehouses. I highly recommend this restaurant. (Incidentally, we never made reservations because on a vacation we don't want to have to watch a clock and we wanted to eat when we were hungry and we never had problems getting seated right away although the hostesses sort of acted snippy that we didn't have reservations)

Stillwater's was great. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet, which consisted of many great items to include: eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits and gravy, hash browns, French toast, waffles, pancakes, bagels, fruit, oatmeal and so much more! The dinner buffet was also great, some items included: prime rib carving station, hot sausage, potatoes, rigatoni, chicken and dumplings, catfish cakes, fresh vegetables and a soup and salad bar. The desserts were also wonderful. We enjoyed the cheesecake and tiramisu trifle. Cannot wait to come back again! This restaurant was top notch.

Excellent for dinner, horrible for breakfast. Keep in mind I have only stayed at the Stonewall Jackson Resort on a couple of occasions over the past few years so my experience is largely anecdotal. For dinner, they go all out on the buffet. Mind you, the idea of a buffet seemingly cheapens the quality of the food from the consumer's viewpoint - but in fact the food is prepared by chefs who know what they are doing in the kitchen and do a fairly good job at doing it well. Their particular niche is modern Appalachian cuisine - and compared to other similar food types I have had in the state, this place definitely ranks to be one of the best. My favorite thing about the food is that it was all seemingly relatively light and healthy when compared to the more traditional ways of cooking this cuisine. The NY strip, served on both nights I was there, was cut into manageable portions. It was perfectly seared on the outside and an excellent medium rare in the middle. Speaking from experience, such thick cuts have proven to be difficult to pull this off like they do. Their pastas and casseroles also speak of freshness unparalled in most places. I can't talk their dinner up enough. Imagine if Shoney's focus was on the quality of each ingredient and the cooks had the training to make each dish perfect. Their breakfast is another issue. It is pretty much a hotel continental breakfast with a high charge. I want to see the Appalachian focus brought over the breakfast menu. For that price, I want to see locally harvested fish for breakfast (or some meat protein other than pork, which I can not eat). I want to see a higher influence of seasonal vegetables. I got an omelette and potatoes for breakfast. I wasn't even able to eat my potatoes because I am fairly certain there was more grease than potatoes on that dish. There was also a piece of bacon in my omelette, which gagged me because I cannot eat pork. The waitress said she was going to discount me, which she didn't. I didn't bring this back up to her because my goal in informing her was just to bring it to her attention, not to get money off my final bill. This restaurant represents the culinary backbone of our state, and it is one of the reasons I am looking forward on returning to the resort in future years. They have become much better since the first I've visited, I hope that this trend continues.

Not a good restaurant. Food is poorly made. Staff is rude. Overall resort is more like a red roof inn.

Loved the service and the ambiance. Sitting outside on a lovely evening surrounded by mountains was…read morelovely. The food...well...there is always room for improvement. The menu seems to be all over the place. I wouldn't call the cuisine any particular genre since there were items that categorically fall under "Mediterranean" as well as "Asian-fusion". Two things in particular that didn't make sense to me. The tofu on the Mediterranean bowl. Tofu marinated in soy sauce is not what comes to mind when I'm thinking of any country in the Mediterranean. Also, the tasting menu has an option for an entree choice of veal shank. I was informed there would be an upcharge since it's a pricier menu item, which is totally acceptable. What I was not prepared for was a giant cut of meat (it had to have been 10oz or more) with a huge bone still attached. The portion did not fit with a tasting menu. Luckily, my husband has the appetite of a small horse so he finished it.

Been here multiple times over the past maybe 7 years. It's my favorite restaurant in WV by far!…read moreLocation is unbeatable, atmosphere and feel are perfect. Coming here is always a memorable experience. Never very crowded which I appreciate. When it comes to the food, I know when I come here I will taste tastes I've never tasted before haha. It's a real dinning experience. The service is good, to be picky this is one area they could improve to really go to the next level.
