GOT FOOD POISONING HERE!!! I ate here for the first time and ordered the chicken tortilla soup and my husband and I shared the full rack of ribs with Mac and cheese. I ate the whole personal size chicken tortilla soup and had a few bites of mac and two ribs. By the time we got home (about 40 minutes later) my stomach was KILLING ME. I ended up with BAD FOOD POISONING!! (It was 100% the soup as it was the only thing my husband did not eat as he didn't have issues). read more

Omg, I just HAD to make a Yelp review for this Company, the night was AMAZING and it couldn't have been more perfect. Thank you Stonefire Grill, for making my family and guests, feel right at home. This Ventura store is OVER the top amazing, making their patrons feel like the superstar of their own house. Food was hot, portions were great and served in a timely manner, with a smile, I might add. We had time to visit, but didn't skip a beat when it came to dinner and appetizers. We thought for sure we would be there for hours, as they were quite busy. It had zero impact on our service. I really can't say enough, but Stonefire Grill will become our "go to" for special events or even just the 3 of us, from this day forward. By the way, the place looked like a million bucks, you'd think with all that traffic throughout the night, that it might look tattered and run through, but no, looked like they had just opened. Fresh and sparkling clean, was the ambience read more

It's pretty good and has a random but good variety of food options. I like their breadsticks a lot and they came out with these options for families during covid that were affordable and delicious. The food isn't amazing but it is good. It suits a lot of different taste buds. read more

Was starving. Figured ok. Went in and waited a bit as the cashier was working through 3 nice old ladies. Waited 25 mins before my food got to the table. Over cooked tri tip was to rough to be confused with leather Just terrible. Mac and cheese was cold and watery. And the chicken I thought would poison me. Seriously. Does anybody care anymore? read more

A friend of mine turned me on to Stonefire Grill's carrot cake and now it's my favorite thing! I stopped in at this restaurant just to do a to-go order of some of their cake. It was convenient that they have a separate entrance and counter for to-go orders and the woman who helped me was friendly and upbeat. Since it was just cake, my order was ready in about 5-10 minutes and I was out the door. Two full slices of cake weigh about a ton!! OMG! And a full slice is $6 and tastes way better than what I usually get at my local grocery store (which is very good cake too btw, it's a reasonably high bar). Anyway, this restaurant is very clean and tidy and located right off the 101. Easy to find, and I'd eat here myself if I wasn't just stopping in for cake. My current favorite meal here is their mac n cheese with chicken (and maybe bacon). :D read more

I did not like the food there service was slow. Hated the wait for the mediocre food.

The food is great. The business is great. Just NEVER get it togo. I waited 23 minutes for a small side of guacamole and chips. I ordered the easiest thing I could because I was on lunch. Of course I tipped before I got my food so I overpaid for this. How does guacamole take this long? It's not even busy. Its Saturday morning. ... ... ... ... Got my money back. Thank you to the quick response of Management. read more

Fantastic spot for dinner! Not only was the restaurant nice and clean but the service was phenomenal. Ordered a trip tip plate with beans and mashed potatoes and a Cobb salad. Cobb salad was a pleasant surprise with a light dressing and fresh bite! TRI tip was great along with the mashed potatoes which is a must I must say, but the beans weren't our favorite. We just had them to the side when the manager Jason came up and asked how everything was, we mentioned not being fans of them but weren't looking for any freebies. He offered to replace them with something else and ended up bringing out a piece of carrot cake instead. WOW, Not only was he so nice and understanding but that dang carrot cake was one of the best I've ever had! Very happy customers leaving dinner tonight, thank you Jason we'll be back soon! read more

All the food is either good or fine, and you get large portions. I ordered the medium rare tri-tip with the pepper garlic topped with gorgonzola butter, the bread sticks and the garlic mashed potatoes. The tri-tip tasted pretty good and was not overcooked. I wasn't a big fan of the topping, but the meat itself was quite tender and juicy. I was surprised to learn that they didn't have A1 sauce...but they did have sriracha? I found that to be a bit odd. The bread sticks and the mashed potatoes, both flavor- and texture-wise, were just fine; nothing to write home about. There was plenty of seating, and the layout is such that you can see into the kitchen, which gave the place a nice smell and made it feel more integrated overall. The music was all over the place, from metal to the Friends theme to One Direction, which was entertaining. Overall, a perfectly decent place to get lunch. The sides are just okay, but the meat is cooked well, which goes a long way. read more

Came in last week and ordered the bbq chicken pizza, as always never disappoints. The bbq chicken pizza here is so full of flavor and is one I definitely recommend to people. As always service was amazing, ever since I discovered this location all the staff are always super attentive, helpful and so respectful. Albert helped me that afternoon and was nothing short of amazing. I would 10/10 recommend this place you will always be greatest with the warmest of smiles and best of food. read more

Jesus was kind, respectful and very helpful five stars to Jesus for his customer service read more

GOOD: Single/Personal order of the tri-tip and chicken on the "From the Grill" menu actually serves two people - no exaggeration. Maybe even three if you mind your protein intake and eat more veggies and salad. Plain breadsticks are decent. Mashed potatoes are decent. Take-away service is excellent and the staff is lovely. BAD: Coleslaw is covered in a vinegar and oil type dressing (or something like it) and it is soaked. This is not coleslaw in the traditional sense. Skip it. "Sandy's Cookies" for dessert are AWFUL. Stale, hard as a rock, taste like either that old freezer burn or just plain stale. They are extremely hard. AVOID THE COOKIE. Overall, not bad for cheap eats. Just some things need to be avoided here. read more

This place is absolutely the best. Second time here and my belly is as happy as the first time. The food is simply delicious, fresh and perfectly cooked. Their portions are quite generous, too. Our table had ordered ribs, tritip, chicken, pizza and pasta and everything was flavorful. I'm not a pizza person but theirs is impossible not to like. The crust is just tight and had the right amount of sauce. The veggies on it (the works) were so thinly sliced that even my teenager noticed and appreciate it. And then there's dessert, hands down the best carrot cake I've eaten. So fresh, so moist, so tasty. I ate half and brought the other half home. Not only was the food comforting but the service was great. Everyone was so helpful and genuinely kind. I also appreciated seeing the pictures of the family on the walls. Feels like I was invited to dinner to their home. So 5 shiny for great food, great service, generous portions and a great prices, too. read more

If I can rate this 0. I would. From the moment we walked in everything went wrong. It was so hot we had to ask the AC to be turned on in the middle of SUMMER! My sons chicken was cold and not fully cooked. My wife's Medium steak was Medium Rare. They forgot ingredients on my meal and let's just say my $75 order was more like I paid for an hour of waisted time. I walked out with my family leaving all the food on the table. Worst of all, the employees even had terrible attitudes for I don't even know what reason! This place was literally THE WORST DINNING EXPERIENCE I've ever been through. Steer clear. read more

We have eaten here before with ordering individual meals. The food is always good. As usual the food was great and the customer service was amazing. We had a family party and ordered the Family Feast. What a great deal!!! We ordered two feasts and fed 16 people with leftovers. The manager Julia went out of her way to make sure we had everything with extras. Don't miss out on this great restaurant read more

I went to Stonefire for a date night dinner with my wife on Friday night. I ordered half barbecue ribs and tri-tip. My wife ordered the Cobb salad. The ribs and tri-tip was delicious. The Cobb salad on the other hand was more dressing, then salad. It was very hard to eat and we both couldn't finish it because it was so drenched in salad dressing. You could see all the salad dressing pooling up at the very bottom of the bowl in which the salad came in. I talked with the floor manager by the name of Jesus and he agreed with our assessment. He was very accommodating and very sympathetic to our dinner. Without hesitation he replaced our salad with a different one and wanted to help save our meal. I can't begin to say how impressed I was with his customer service and his swift actions. Thanks Jesus for your help and we will definitely be back. read more

Service was good. Food was ok. Roasted Turkey Club was good, the bacon was amazing and the pesto sauce inside was good, I'd order with extra sauce if I order again. The Tomesto pasta ( 1/2 marinara, 1/2 pesto) was not great. I would compare it to cafeteria food. Maybe it's microwaved frozen pasta or something. The restaurant smelled weird, like a mix of bathroom and barbecue. Too bad, considering it's a very good vibe inside. Nice lighting and comfy seats. Would probably just order pickup from now on. Pricing was reasonable, but I'd rather spend it somewhere else. Hope the 5 stars helps you grow and get more business. Current rating from me is 5/10 read more

I have visited this place with my family and the food is amazing, my kids love the pasta and the service is very nice, the manager Jason comes over to ask how the food is and he is very friendly. without leaving aside the cleanliness of the place. read more

This was the worst experience I've ever had. The place has gone down hill. First we were interrupted three times by an old man who couldn't figure out how to use his phone for a discount. Then the counter person left in the middle of taking our order so she could help him. Second, the ice tea was cloudy and too strong, third we had to search the entire dining room to find a clean table and finally they got my husbands order wrong and it had to be sent back. The only redeeming person was the young girl who brought us our food. This place used to be so good too. read more

Food was great and service was excellent. Pohai helped us out at the front and was very sweet and professional! Thank you Stone Fire Grill! Will definitely be back!!! :) read more

What a disappointment, especially compared to the location in the SFV: I had to repeat my order 4 times because the young lady at the takeout counter just wasn't getting it. The wait was ridiculous for 4:30 in the afternoon; the customers before me got a free cake for their delayed order. When I finally got my order, I had to again ask for BBQ sauce and plasticware. The measly cake slice I PAID FOR tasted like it had been in the refrigerator for weeks. Not up to standard at all. I'll wait 'til I'm back in the valley to go to Stonefire again. read more

This was one of my favorite places but todays bad experience is all it takes I ordered the pepper garlic tritip and the butter garlic they put on top was bad it was smelly like really bad I've had it before and now the taste and the normal smelland today it was bad no coming back to the Ventura restaurant. read more

Eileen. She's so darn sweet. Excellent mannerisms. The food is simple, basic at best but good. Thanks Eileen for your excellent service. read more

I work really close and come by for lunch. I was worried that I wouldn't have time to eat here on my lunch break but I got my bbq tri tip within ten minutes! The tri tip is amazing and the mashed potatoes are definitely my favorite side dish. Plus the breadsticks are the best I've had in a long time. I'll definitely be back for lunch again soon! read more

My first visit to Stonefire won't be the last. I had no idea what to expect when I arrived last weekend, so I was surprised when I found out you had to order up front. Kind of like Presto Pasta for the BBQ crowd. I felt a bit rushed looking at the menu since we had people behind us, but thankfully my friend had been there before and was able to point out some options. We decided to get a meal for two, which included 4 pieces of sliced tri-tip & babyback ribs (a total of 5) and one side, I thought we got two sides, so I chose chili beans & then Sandy was going to order veggies and they told her the meal only came with one. Our total came to $23 and that included drinks. Everything is self serve minus the food being served to you, so we got our plates, silverware, & napkins , as well as our drinks at the machines. The tri-tip melted in my mouth, so so good I hated to take the last bite because I wanted more, and the ribs had plenty of meat on them, though it was not fall off the bone tender., but still good. After thinking about it, Sandy decided to go back to get a side of vegetables, grilled tomatoes, peppers, zucchini cane on a small silver pizza pan, it was so tasty! I enjoyed the chili beans, Sandy didn't, she said they reminded her of cowboy beans and she's not a fan of those, I myself loved the taste and enjoyed the pieces of steak throughout it. Definitely a wonderful addition to Ventura and I have a feeling this will be one of my parents favorite places once the try it. read more

All are seasoned to perfection. -mashed potatoes are heavenly and so is the cauliflower if you want a lighter option. -for dessert , the cheesecake with blueberry sauce is off the charts good. - I love knowing the food is made fresh and it is something I feel comfortable giving my family. read more

Stumped by bad reviews, husband and I tried our new Stonefire today. We loved it. A great place to stop your busy day and eat a simple, well prepared meal or take it to go. We devoured our BBQ Chopped Salad, Asian Salad, Cauliflower Salad and I had to try a pepperoni pizza. Walked around to spy on tables of ribs, fish, salads, pizzas and happy families. All the servers I talked to were friendly, helpful and working hard to keep the place clean and orders moving. Our food was all well prepared, tasty and reasonable. Ambiance was nice and relatively quiet. I'll definitely be a regular. read more

This particular Stonefire Grill is a little smaller than most of the other locations that I have been to. One thing that I found to be a little bit of an issue here is that they do not have a menu board or menus standing from the floor to look at when you order as in the other locations. You have to pick up a paper menu to see what the offerings are. The food, of course, is absolutely the same throughout the chain. They have a number of excellent dishes to choose from, but my absolute favorite dish here is the lemon garlic chicken. It's smothered in pieces of garlic, so don't go for this unless you really like garlic! read more

Today my coworker and I visited the grand opening of Stonefire Grill, in Ventura. The overall layout of the store is different than the Westlake location in Thousand Oaks. I am eliminating one star due to the fact that there is no outside dinning seating as to why I enjoy the Westlake location, beside the food. To your left is the 'Togo area' and that line is separate than the 'dining-in' line. Since it was lunch time, I kept it simple and ordered a BBQ Tri-tip salad from the lunch menu, which came with one piece of bread for under $8. My salad was large and I couldn't complete it. All of the employees were very friendly and attentive. Overall our experience was good, there was plenty of parking and lots to do in that shopping center: Barnes and Noble, Kohl's, Pier1 Imports, Starbucks and a FroYo shop, so we will definitely be back to have some carrot cake and a Tri-tip meal on our next visit. read more

A servers was wiping down serving plates. He would wipe the inside of the plate and with the same towel, wipe down the bottom and then put on a piece of paper, between each plate. Wiping top and bottom with the same towel, is not very hygienic. That is how people get stomach illness. read more

Love the food, the service, the menu and everything about this place. The salads are fresh and flavorful and the other dishes are great as well. My only issue is that the tri tip (which used to be one of my favorite items) seems to be very tough these days. The last two time I could not cut it with a knife, which was disappointing. I wound up throwing a lot of it away, which was wasteful. The carrot cake is amazing, you should try it. read more

I love stone fire and constantly crave it!!! My favorite dish is the BBQ chicken chopped salad. It's absolutely amazing. I've also had it with the salmon before and it is just as great! They are currently offering curbside and the ordering process is so easy. You can call and order over the phone or through the app. read more

We've been longtime fans, first in Woodland Hills, then in Westlake Village. We were thrilled to see their grand opening here in Ventura. And add their matching donations to my favorite charity Food Share was a win-win for our community. Thank you Justin for offering us an incredible meal for a great cause. Did I mention the succulent tri-tip with Gorgonzola butter? Or the meaty, moist ribs? The delicious sea bass? Oh the garlic mashed potatoes are sinfully delicious. And before we thought we couldn't eat anything else, Avery brought each one of us a four part desert sampler! Moist carrot cake, blueberry cheesecake and brownies to die for. Congratulations and good luck, we'll be back for more! I signed up for the rewards program and already have free breadsticks on our next visit! read more

One of my family members occasionally has lunch here. Sometimes I get food from here for dinner. Tonight my family member brought home a Mediterranean mixed salads. I had a little but then I immediately stopped when I found a HAIR in my mouth that was in the salad. I dumped the rest in the garbage for fear of getting sick. My family member once told me something similar happened before in the restaurant and the manager apologized or something. My family member continues to eat there despite this for reasons I don't know. But yeah, if it happened before it will happen again and apparently I was the victim this time. I won't eat any prepared meals from here anymore. I had some of their cooked meats before too and it was slightly cold to even almost barely cooked. The tortilla chips are great though, I'll at least give them that. read more

The food looked really good online and we ordered curbside pick up, food was ready in 35 minutes which is a little long but okay, however once we got home we realized the chicken wasn't cooked all the way. Since we ordered through postmates we couldn't put in a complaint or request a refund. The 2 stars is because their cheese pizza was pretty good and the salad was a good size. The ribs were pretty burnt and tasted like charcoal, the tri tip was a little tough. Still looking for a decent bbq spot. read more
