Serious - MUST TRY! We stopped in shortly after they opened on a Monday, eager to try something new. The first impression was fantastic!! They saw us approaching and opened the door for our arrival, greeting us, asking if it was our first time and then giving us a detailed explanation of their process - very very customer service oriented, friendly and going one step above and beyond in every way. This extended from the person who opened the door to the server, to the bus lady. The atmosphere was very relaxing, LOTS of seating with various options, very clean, lots of natural wood, and inviting. You order and pay at the front, get your own beverage and utensils and carry out containers - although it doesn't have the feel of a buffet or cafeteria. It actually has a more upscale feel and is ingenious because you're not waiting on any wait staff for anything other than bringing your food to your table. The food was brought very quickly - we had time to get our beverages and utensils and just sit down to relax before our salads & bread were brought. The menu had everything from salads, pasta, pizza, sandwiches, and BBQ proteins. The thing that impressed us about the menu was the healthier choices that were offered and updated flavor profiles; Roasted Cauliflower, quinoa Gorgonzola butter - no fries on the menu. Hubby had the Pepper and Garlic crusted Tri Tip with Gorgonzola Butter, Lemon Roasted Chicken and Nutty Coleslaw. The meat was cooked exactly as ordered!! They were both JUICY, TENDER, FRESH.... THE BEST!! The coleslaw was light and delicious with a vinaigrette rather than creamy sauce. I had the Steak & Cheese Sandwich; tri tip with caramelized onions, melted mozzarella cheese, Gorgonzola butter, tomato and lettuce on a french roll. It was DELISH and the portion size was MORE than enough! We will DEFIANTLY be back and can't wait!! read more

Stonefire Grill is a great sit down restaurant quality food. When you walk in you order at the cashier counter and the wait staff will bring you your food. You can sit wherever you want. The food is great quality with fresh ingredients and so many options. There is pizzas, pastas, salads, meat/steak options, chicken, and fish. I love their pizza its delicious and come with so many toppings. The portions are very generous and the staff is very helpful with orders and bringing you anything you need. Go to Stonefire its a wonderful place to eat for American/Italian comfort food. I deducted one star due to its prices. read more

Ok , forget the resturant design and layout your use to . Lets start at the door ' as you approach the restaurant you see a line out the door and think to yourself ' should i go elsewhere ? once inside you look for the host or hostess to place your name but your greeted with a large 4×6 virtual menu overhead. With the main order area so small after 4 or 5 are waiting to order people are pushed out the door. You order at the entrance and pay for your meal ' then take your gps table marker and find a seat . Once inside' the resturant boast a modern layout and design with a glass enclosed kitchen and a drink station in the far back corner which is self -serve . Once your meal is served , your on your own. Not once did anyone come bye and ask if everything was ok and/or if we needed anything .the food was fresh and plated great . In our party we ordered ,Tri -tip with the cowboy beans and garlic cheese mashed potatoes, tomesto pasta , bbq sandwhich and pepperoni pizza. Overall the food is the main attraction ' and with this the 9th of a family owned establishment , Stonefire * sends mixed thoughts ' ordering and paying up front and then seating yourself along with the self service drink station which is small' once four to five people it becomes standing room only like a 'Fast food establishment. The waiters and waitresses wondering the floor searching for the 'gps marker. I just dont get what *stone fire 'is trying to market itself as ' Fast food or modern eatery . I will return and try other options as the menu has great variety and many options for family and friends . If your in the rancho Cucamonga area and looking for something different ' let Stonefire grill ' serve you the recipes from its family members... Enjoy . read more

Me and my boyfriend got the tri tip dinner for two and it was MORE than enough food. We chose to go with the Cesar salad and the cauliflower salad as our sides. (We are doing a low carb diet.) the salad had a very strong eye watering taste of onion for some odd reason even though it didn't contain any. The cauliflower salad was really gross in our onion. However the tri tip was AMAZING! Super juicy and tender one of the best tri tips I have had.. like EVER. I would still go back but just purchase different sides. read more

I've been here 3 times and each time the food has been great. I've had the Caesar salad, pesto pasta, and the all American cheese burger sans the cheese. The burger came with a really good sriracha ranch to dip your chips in but I found dipping my burger in it was better. The waiters here are really nice and have always made sure our table has everything we needed. read more

Greek salad awesome for me - light touch of feta and dressing on side so that I can control serving portion. Also a small single cauliflower salad both delicious. I ordered petite tri tip with garlic sauce, which was too rare so they accommodated and have me medium. Again, didn't have the 'grilled seared' like the one my friend posted. I informed Louis one of the managers I told him that I will try it bbq'd next time. He stated that he would replace it again. Wow I'm impressed. Very accommodating. Excellent management and staff. Ahh it's all about the right sauce bbq! Thank you again Louis! Yes the tri tip is delicious tender. read more

Chicken Alfredo - the chicken was not fresh and burned. We mentioned it to the manager he said "thank you I'll let the general manager know" read more

I have loved Stonefire Grill for years especially their tri-tip salad. Last night at my urging 4 of us ate at this location. I was sorely disappointed as to the quality and quantity for the price. Puzzled I asked to speak to the manager who was very nice. Stonefire used to be family owned and that explains the poor experience we had. We started with the cookies which are no longer baked in-house and tasted old and dried out. They no longer serve bread sticks but pieces of pizza dough cut to look like bread sticks. There was very little tri-top on our advertised "shared" order for $17.99. So sad to see a wonderful restaurant's reputation destroyed by corporate takeover. We will not be going back. read more

Excellent food especially the tri tip. I love the chopped salad also. Food has been fresh and hot every time we have eaten here. We have never been disappointed. read more

Came here for dinner with the family on a Tuesday night. The quality of the food was excellent and the customer service was excellent. The only reason they got a 4 star is because the dining area has a few dirty tables with some items underneath the tables, and the bathroom was a little under maintained. Other than that everything was excellent, we will be returning. read more

Not what was expected. Upon entry, you place your order and pay to receive a number and your drink cups. Not enough space at entry to really review menu in crowd. Once you find a table, and it's self service beverages like a buffet. They bring you your food, no silverware on the table so backup to get your silverware. Food was very good. We all had tri-tip which was well-cooked and flavorful. The garlic mashed potatoes and breadsticks were also very good. When we asked for a to go container, someone pointed they are over there and we once again had to get up and serve ourselves. The atmosphere is nice the food is good, we were not crazy about serving ourselves. When you spend $20 on a meal to eat out, you expect to be waited on. read more

This place was pretty good. I went to this chain at another location and I'm glad the quality is still the same at different locations. My teammates and I needed a place to get pasta the night before outlet cross country race. Every place was bad for us, didn't have pasta, or had a 2 hour wait near our hotel. So thankful I called here and there was only a 10 minute wait when we got there. I got the penne bolognese and I still liked it. It's a good amount o pasta for what I paid for. Normally I would eat half or a little more than and take the rest back. But I guess that day I was hungry and finished the whole thing and I knew I didn't have a time to eat the rest of it. It's filling and flavorful. Very basic dish that was a great fuel for the race I had in the morning after. The servers were really nice with us too. It was about 6 of us. It's normally a order and seat yourself kind of deal. But the place started to get crowded so they found a big enough space for us in the patio all to ourselves. Food came out a little slow. They also missed my order and my whole team was waiting for mine to come out. So they have us complicated bread sticks since they had to quickly make mine. They checked up on us (which normally they don't do) and it was a good time. There is ample parking there since it's in a lot. Would I come here again? This food chain is like my go to now and this location is pretty nice! So yes if I'm in the area again read more

The experience was delicious! I went with a friend of mine and we both loved the fast service. Our food came to us immediately I was impressed. read more

We have been to Stonefire grill twice to eat in the restaurant and it was okay. BUT, we were craving BBQ the other day and while we have been trying to support our local restaurants about once a week recently, we were ready to give up. in about 5 weeks we did not have one positive experience. WOW, my Husband and I went in with no great expectations and we were shocked at how fantastic the food was! The tri-tip was soooo tender, the chicken and baby back ribs were meaty and juicy, the Cesar salad (huge) was FRESH, CRISP AND WONDERFUL! Hubby really enjoyed his large portion of peanut slaw, "very filling" and the breadsticks were warm and tasty. We will definitely be giving the sit down restaurant another go when this is over. Thank you for the fast, fresh and very important, ACCURATE order. read more

This place is packed and it's a fairly new concept but honestly the food is only ok. Nothing unique Food: so so Price: not too affordable but not too high, price fitting their food and concept Ambiance: Fancy fast-food joint Cleanliness: it's fairly new so it appears clean read more

Stonefire Grill - Barbeque Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

Most of the food was disappointing. Having to pay for everything before you sit down doesn't make ordering another beer a process that just isn't worth it. Overall the place has the feeling of a buffet without the "all you can eat" option. The staff was friendly and the manager showed sincere interest in our thoughts. I just don't see things changing based on the layout. read more

My family and I had an opportunity to participate in the soft opening for our local Stonefire Grill. Bit are we glad we did because the food was incredible and the staff was fantastic. Fast, friendly and delicious eats. We sampled many different menu items but trust me, some of the more less obvious choice MUST be tried: Cauliflower with meat sauce Roasted whole head of cauliflower Tremendous! Thank you again Stonefire Grill Family. read more

Cool place, kinda like an express version of Lucille's, had a family party here and it was pretty good, I believe my sister in law got a flat rate on the food, tri tip very good, salads were awesome, Also they have ipa beers- all and all a nice place, good prices too. read more

My husband and I were at Stonefire Grill in Rancho Cucamonga today for an early dinner. I was quite surprised at how dirty it was. Not only was the cleanliness in question, but my husband killed a giant roach that was crawling on the floor next to our booth and there were gnats and flies buzzing around the drink machine and landing on the utensils. SO GROSS!! We talked to the assistant manager and she was very blasé about the situation and didn't really seem concerned. We definitely won't be back. read more

Ohhhhhh I had high hopes for this place.... but I was let down. .... I love new restaurants in our city but wanted to give a few months before I tried it. We (myself my mom and my daughter) went into tonight and the host and cash people were saying two different things. Host was taking a name and telling us to wait.... and the cash register order taker was telling us to come over.... they simply couldn't manage the flow of people.. We ordered and found a seat. The salads came really fast and I was sort of impressed. Not to long after our food came. It looked great. The wait staff was nice and helpful. The food was cool. Not cold but not warm or hot.. but they brought it up so fast that it just seemed like it's buffet style in the kitchen. The food itself was mediocre... at best.... the mash potatoes were actually really good. But the meat was cool and bland. The appearance of the place is great. They decorated it nice. But.... over all it simply was not that great... I will try it again in the future (because one time could have been caused by a busy night). But I really think I will try it as more of a lunch spot. It feels more like a cafeteria then a regular restaurant. With a few tweaks it could be a decent quick panara style eatery. Appearance = great Host and orders = confused. Servers = ok. Food= welllllllllllllll. Let's just say it's so so.... Side note. I'm not sure they even have a grill... the ribs and meat all tasted "steamed" not grilled. read more

This was my first time at a StoneFire Grill. I was invited to a preview event, and the crowd was lined up along the side of the restaurant. Even though it was completely crazy busy, the kitchen got the food out with expediency and it was all freshly made and very good. You can see the kitchen staff from the dining area and they were focused and working very well together. The waitstaff was helpful, courteous and constantly asking if there was anything that was needed. I especially liked the managers taking time to converse with the patrons. We had the tri tip, ribs, salmon and mac and cheese and was able to upgrade my side to quinoa and also had the cauliflower salad. For dessert, we had the brownie, carrot cake and cheesecake. Overall, I really enjoyed the salmon and the cauliflower the most. My daughter loved the cheesiness of the mac and cheese. The tri-tip was spot on and the ribs were okay (maybe a tad dry). For dessert, from the carrot cake, cheesecake and brownie, I would suggest the carrot cake which was amazing. I'm unsure if they can heat it, but I would think warming it would put it over the edge of epic! The ambiance is really enjoyable. There is a feeling of a nice hotel steak house without the high cost. The price is reasonable and I look forward to coming back again! read more

Wow! Recommended by Chris at Steppin' Out Ballroom. We were impressed by the selection, quality, and taste of the food. Everything was prepared as requested, arrived hot, and was delicious. We have a new favorite restaurant. Thanks! read more

This place continues to impress. From the efficient, organized ordering process at the front, to the incredible food and exceptional service, this is my go-to every time I am in Rancho Cucamonga. My favorites are the lemon garlic salmon, mashed potatoes, BBQ chopped salad and, today, I had their seasonal corn on the cob. It was sweet and delicious! Highly recommend! read more

Salad was beautiful, very fresh and crunchy vegetables. The breadsticks were also good. Unfortunately, the BBQ Chicken was tender but had a fishy taste and the tri tip was not tender. read more

For years I have been coming here & your avocado you put in salads suck take more pride!

Great food and great service! We get the tri tip for 2 it is not on the menu but it is a great deal and the food is delicious! You get tri tip salad bread sticks and mashed potato for 19.99 read more

The food is great! No complaints on that, but I couldn't give it five stars for just a few reasons. The line to get in is a bit of a logistical nightmare. People just crowd in to get to the three registers to order their food, and then they have to deal with hunting down a table. After that, everything calms down and the waiters/waitresses are aggressively attentive, which makes sense because they need to make room for more people that are waiting in the line that is already out the door. We had the margherita pizza, the chicken tortilla soup, the petite garden salad, bread sticks and a pound of salmon. All delish!!! Especially that soup! Normally soup at restaurants are overly salty, this one was full of flavor. And the bread sticks!!! Yes please. For dessert, we ordered the brownie, but I wouldn't get it again. After all that good food it really was a let down. read more

First and my last time coming service is awful the guy in the front (Tim) plum fucking dumb swear I wanted to slap the shit outta him. Then I wanted mac n cheese on the side of my meal he tried arguing with me that mac n cheese is not a side well it's not a main courses. You have to get your on drinks (10min just to get ice) grab your own fork and knife and sauce what the fuck do they even have waiters for. DUMBEST PLACE I HAVE EVER BEEN TOO DONT LET THE FOUR STARS FOOL YOU LIKE IT DID ME WILL NEVER RETURN read more

The food here is great. We had the tri tip, cauliflower with meat sauce, and the stonefire favorite pizza. The food came out relatively quickly even tho they were pretty busy. My only complaint is that I wish the food was hotter, but I love my food steaming hot. Aside from the food the customer service is great. The staff is super helpful and attentive. The ordering process however is a bit weird if you've never been there. You go up to the counter and order your food then find your own seat. The crowd that gathers by the door can be somewhat off-putting because you assume they're overly crowded however it's because people are just waiting to order. read more

The setup is a little bizarre. Order, pay and go seat yourself. Get your own drink and refills and plate and silverware. Don't forget to grab you own napkins. If I'm going out, I want to be waited on. I'm not into refilling my plastic disposable cup either. I wasn't sure if I am to tip on my purchase because I did everything except bring the main corse. Tell me it's ready and I will pick it up. I got the pizza and it could have been cooked more. I'm not fond of seeing tri tip served on a metal plate like a cave man and you need to put it on the ceramic plate. Maybe I will give it another shot but after eating tonight not a fan. read more

Thought we'd give this place a shot. We were a party of 3 and all 3 of us agreed it deserved a 3 star. First of all, when you walk in you feel kind of lost. We figured out that we had to order first, be seated second, grab your own drink, grab your own sauces and grab your utensils. That was only after we asked the worker for sauce and salad plate. That's how we found out we had to grab everything ourselves. The cashier does not inform you of the process. It's a self serve pretty much. You order, they bring your food, but you grab everything else. Reminds me of soup plantation in a way. The quality of the food is a 3. The bbq sandwich my husband ordered didn't come close to looking like the one on the picture. Ribs were not tasty. Quality of the meat is average. Tough to bite. The servers were super nice and friendly and were the ones to direct us on how things operate around here. read more

It was me and my bfs first time here and i love it! Next top place to go to. Its affordable and vegan/ vegetarian friendly!! I got a quinoa salad and my bf got tri tip and chicken with mashed potatoes. It was all so yummy!! With lots of flavor! We also got a full size carrot cake and it was so good!!!! New place to go for dinner! read more

We were excited about this place. But it was the worst experience. The lady greeting you never said once that you have to put your name in to get a table. We thought all the people standing around were looking at the menu or waiting for someone. Our mistake. We finally got a table and the food came - well some of it. We had to ask the server about our vegetables - twice. We had to ask the servers about our dessert. The food was good, the service lousy. When we were about ready to leave the management came over and took one of our tables and added it to another table creating a hazard in the middle of the aisle. We stayed awhile after that watching the chaos this caused. They started delivering that table's food to us. We heard the staff say several times that it was a fire hazard. We won't be back. read more

The atmosphere, and some of the food are 5 star worthy, other parts are just a bit off the mark. Since its new I assume they will fix the small things make it better......... One entrée and one side dish showed up 8 minutes before the rest of us got our food. We voiced our concerns and Management was all over it and made it right, poor server was lost when we asked her about it. The ribs and tri tip and NOT smoked or even BBQd they taste straight out the oven. while still being super tender and tasty not quite the same as real BBQ. Things we got and how I would rate them Tri tip 4.5 stars would be a 5 if smoked super tender and had good flavor Salmon 5 STARS moist flakey and delicious Tri Tip Pizza 5 STARS Loved the pizza crust topping were plentiful FANTASTIC Ribs 3 Stars didn't have much flavor Mac and Cheese 4 Stars big portions decent amount of cheese brought out way too early was warm but not hot by the time the entrees arrived Garlic Mashed Potatoes 3 Creamy and fluffy but nothing that made them extraordinary Garlic bread sticks 4.5 If you like garlic these are for you Chicken 4 Nothing special moist and juicy. Stick to the pizzas this is what they do best. The avocado and pesto is on the menu next trip. I am sure as they learn the systems it will get better, we will certainly be back, still a few things we need to try read more

My family and I used to looove this restaurant but lately they have started to go down-hill. When they opened doors we would be greeted and the food was superb; My favorite dish were the baby-back ribs and pasta but now, when we were there on Monday, the ribs were almost as cold as ice, the pasta was not cooked thoroughly and it was also cold. I think they're pre-cooking the food and then it is placed on-the-side until a customer asks for it; that's not the way it was before, back then it felt as if you ordered and then the cooks or chefs began to make it for you on the spot. I'm not complaining about it but I'm just making a point that I believe that maybe Stonefire Grill might be able to revert the way things are and start preparing their dishes the way they did when they opened their doors, that way we'll be able enjoy our dishes. read more
