Our service was amazing! The food was amazing! The ambiance was amazing! I would definitely go back again. The chef came out and greeted us and thanked us for coming. I give this restaurant a ten out of ten. read more

Bottom Line: A comfy and quieter option for dining at the mall. Stoney River Steakhouse and Grill is one of the nicer restaurants at the Annapolis Mall. Not that I do a whole lot of mall shopping these days (does anyone?) but when I am in the area and running errands its a great place to relax afterwards. We've sat in the bar and in the dining room and we have a slight preference for a comfy booth in the dining room. As far as food goes, its usually pretty good. Sometimes we keep it light with a salad and other times we go for the gusto and get steaks. In either case, I am always glad to dive into the warm rolls and honey butter. On my most recent visit it was about 5:30pm on a Saturday night and it was packed! We were seated in about 20 minutes which was great but we found the kitchen to be very slow which wasn't so great. I had the Steak N' Fries. My New York Strip steak was overcooked but satisfied my craving for a steak. Being attached to the mall Stoney River is more casual than you typical steakhouse but we still try to be a little more "dressed" when dining there. read more

Tried this spot for the first time although I've always seen it. Had a reservation for 7:15 but didn't get seated to about 7:35. Place was PACKED!! Our server Kimmie was very pleasant and attentive and took care of us with water, drinks and fresh warm bread with sweet butter. Food took about long to come out but once it did everything was hot, seasoned well and tasted great. I ordered the Hung Kong Sea Bass which was simply seasoned, perfectly grilled over a bed of sautéed spinach and sticky rice. Pair that with a great Old Fashioned and you've got a tasty dinner. Overall, greatly sat and will return. read more

Service was A1 and the complimentary bread and butter was very good. The ambiance is very nice too. For starters we had spinach dip and steak rolls which were real good. My cedar plank salmon which I got blackendes was seasoned to perfection and the fries were great as well. I definitely will be back again. Definitely give this establishment a try. read more

Stoney River - Whiskey Shrimp - Steakhouses Near Me - Annapolis, Maryland

I'm only reviewing my experience so far, without my food. I've been here previously and loved it. So naturally when I came back I planned to order what I had before, the fried shrimp. Unfortunately, there was a menu change and the fried shrimp, along with the chicken tenders and ribs, were removed to provide a more steakhouse experience. For me this was a HUGE disappointment as I came specifically for the fried shrimp. Trying to just enjoy my prebirthday meal, we decided to stay. I ordered the fried calamari. To my surprise, they were SALTY. Salty for me is usually a plus but not when it makes your tongue numb. Our server Grant removed the calamari and offered to have it remade but I was not feeling lucky enough to give it another shot. read more

I usually come to Stony River for dinner, but today I stopped by for lunch. I started my meal off with the steak rolls and the spinach dip. Both were delicious. The steak in the eggrolls was flavorful and it came with a ranch dipping sauce. The spinach dip is some of the freshest spinach dip I've ever had. It tastes like they're growing spinach out back, and picking it before they prepare the dip. I had the fried shrimp with green beans for my entree. Everything tasted good, but more than 6 shrimp would have been nice. read more

First of all, this place was an amazing experience. The entrance was beautiful. Where my sibling and myself were seated was close to the fire place and it was so elegant. The restaurant had a bar but it was shut off from the table diners which I appreciated. Originally my party was supposed to be 6 but needed up turning into 8 adults and two kids but thank goodness for laps for seats because I was not trying to miss this experience! The staff was very accommodating and nice. Stoney River Steakhouse doesn't owe me anything and I want to come back really soon My family and I came here for dessert, sibling chit chat, and drinks! Our waiter was awesome! Very attentive and all around just great at his job. I do hope I get him again for my server. They dinner rolls and butter to be honest is in competition with TEXAS ROAD HOUSE! I kid you not! The rolls and butter is worth a try!!!!! I ordered the steak rolls for an appetizer which were really good definitely great portion size for what you spend on the food I was able to share! I wasn't a fan of the sauces that the rolls came with but the rolls were great by themselves I ordered my Husband and my food to go We have the prime rib of beef and the center cut - 12 oz of filet mignon Both entrees were well cooked For dessert I had the chef special which was crème brûlée and it was so creamy, smooth, butter but hints of yummy vanilla bean!!! Can't go wrong with fresh fruit! My siblings enjoyed the carrot cake and chocolate cake they were all so good I took a few bits of the cakes! Very moist and for $13-$15 dollars you get a huge piece of cake!!!!! Drinks we had were: southern peach, Long Island, and the lemon drop mojito!!!! My Saturday was so full! Truly enjoyed myself Stoney River is worth trying! read more

This food is so good!! My friends were raving about the bread and food so they took me one evening and I loved it. The Whiskey Shrimp appetizer was sooo good! I took one bite and almost shed a tear because it was so tasty! The steak rolls were excellent as well! For the entree, I got a burger and fries which was okay. The second time I visited I got the Whiskey Shrimp again and the Bistro Chicken, which I enjoyed. During both visits, the ambience and customer service was great! I look forward to visiting again. I highly recommend this place! read more

Adding pics from a recent visit because I actually tried something new. (Ha!) -HOT CHICKEN BISCUITS: Nashville HOT, indeed. Goodness. Gracious! -PAN-ROASTED COLD WATER SALMON w/GARLIC WHIPPED POTATOES + BROCCOLI (SZECHAUN STYLE; 'naked' is also an option.) - Very flavorful and cooked to perfection. Somebody whipped these potatoes into oblivion, because they were extremely light and fluffy. I didn't try any, but was told that the broccoli was on point (delicious). The consistency still amazes me. In all my years, I've never had a bad meal here. Ever! __ I eat. @f.hux I thrift. @DCthriftish read more

It's not the Stoney River I used to know. We were a party of 4 on 12-2-2025. We have been here several times and in fact held our Wedding reception in the private room during 2014. Last night was not good. My Ribeye while appropriately cooked was of very poor quality, lacking char, taste and was somewhat tough. I've had run of the mill Ribeye from Food Lion that was of better quality. Our guests ordered off the special menu and were disappointed when the meal arrived room temperature and was sent back only to be returned room temperature again. You know, and we know you are serving sub-par quality meats and charging premium prices. Service was adequate but nothing remarkable. I don't like to complain but I'm disappointed because Stoney River was a place I could always look forward to, not anymore. read more

Bone-in Cowboy ribeye was outstanding, Gouda Mac and cheese to go along with it was also great. Fair pricing and great atmosphere

9.6.22 Updated review no changes food is very good here, we eat at the bar service I always excellent bartenders are very friendly. I did order 1 thing different this time I had the chicken slides and the house salad with house vinaigrette. The sliders came on mini biscuits 2 pickles hot sauce and some other white sauce. Chicken was very tender I only eat 2 it comes with 4, I took 1/2 my salad and the other 2 sliders home for lunch the next day. I placed the chicken in my toaster oven for 3 min and then the biscuits for 2 and they tasted just like at the restaurant. I will get these again. read more

Stoney River has been a solid place to go for years so this quick Happy Hour visit was no different. We sat in the bar/lounge area and were greeted by the bartender right away. I love going right at the start of happy hour because it's always pretty quiet and never too crowded. We ordered a few drinks, deviled eggs, cheesesteak egg rolls, and burgers. The meal was delivered promptly and it was a great meal as always. read more

I have only written positive reviews, because I like to applaud good to great service, but sadly I am leaving a negative review with the hopes of positive changes. I am a local who has been a regular at Stoney for the past 22yrs. I stopped by for a quick bite after work. The bartender with a man bun (only referenced in hopes that it helps him upgrade his customer service skills) made me feel as if I was a bother just sitting at the bar. ZERO personality. It would be nice to feel welcomed like I have always felt in the past. This isn't the first time with the same bartender. Maybe it's his personality, but then why bartend?? I don't even care that my food arrived less than room temp. I have experienced better service in the past from several bartenders who are no longer there. Please step it up. If you are not people-friendly, then you are not a great fit for the restaurant business. I didn't receive a friendly attitude until he finally noticed that my wine glass was empty. $68 for a seabass fish with sticky rice + a glass of wine. Had the service been better, I would have had another $18 glass of wine and dessert. read more

It was our anniversary and we decided to celebrate here! Everything was amazing from the time we arrived. We asked for a booth near the fireplace but the folks who were seated there seemed to be squatting for awhile. At any rate, the hostess asked us if we were ok being seated somewhere else and I said yes. I'm happy that they tried to accommodate my request. The staff was really nice. The food was really good and the restaurant was really cozy. Husband wanted his steak cut by the chef to make sure it wasn't red at all and they complied. We didn't order dessert because we were so stuffed. The manager sent us some champagne for an anniversary toast. That was so kind. That made our night! We will definitely be back to celebrate many more milestones. read more

The Stoney River Steakhouse was a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was very welcoming and the service was great! I had the grilled salmon that was done perfectly. Hubby had the coffee crusted filet mignon (medium rare, of course). The mini rolls were the best!!! You should asked for refills - you will! LOL! Enjoy your time there. It is a little pricey, however, that is expected at such a restaurant. read more

Inside was nice with low romantic lighting. Everyone was very nice. However the food wasn't as good as I imagined and overpriced. It was my first time so I may give them one more try.

We made a reservation for Valentine's Day and when we arrived for our 9pm reservation we were told we would have a 35 minute wait, made no sense. It was packed upon entering a lot of people were waiting to be seated. A couple was there for a 7:30pm reservation and got seated around 9:20pm. We just made the decision to leave and go to another restaurant in the area. I just don't understand why people that made reservations could not be accommodated at the time that they booked for and the hostess was rude and impatient. Do better! read more

This review is for late lunch for two at the bar on a Saturday afternoon in mid September. Service: Appeared to be shift change and we had two different female bartenders. They were fine; however, not very knowledgeable about beer choices. bar: They were out of RAR Brewing Nanticoke Nectar IPA on tap. They were also out of IPAs in bottles or cans. Seems odd that a full service bar would not have at least one IPA available? I drank a Left Hand Brewing Company Milk Stout. food: Stoney River's complimentary bread is amazing. My wife had the Thai Chicken Salad ($19) and it was very good. I had the French Dip ($23) and it was OK. We've eaten at innumerable J. Alexanders and have never seen a well done French Dip? Parm fries were spectacular. Some of the best fries we've ever had. Details: I dunno, improvisational jazz for lunch? Seemed a bit over-the-top. Maybe it works when restaurant is packed? Space is beautiful with modern stone and steel. There is outdoor seating, but it was raining and outdoor seems to overlook a loading dock? It's mall adjacent, so plenty of parking right outside the door. read more

I had not been to Stoney River in years, forgotten how much I loved this place! I met a girlfriend for a girls night, Stoney River is her go-to. Beautiful restaurant. Service was impeccable! 5 stars! We sat a high top in the bar. Our server could not have been any nicer. So sweet and friendly. My lemon mojito was absolutely delicious. Refreshing and yummy. I ordered the crab cake appetizer with a side of gouda Mac and Cheese. Our server warned me the crab cake was not the "normal" Maryland Crab Cake. It was very different than the typical Maryland crab cake, very good nonetheless. That Gouda Mac and Cheese! So creamy and delicious! Definitely a 5 star spot! read more

A fancy, up-scale steakhouse that is a great place for a date night or a night out with friends. Service: The service is good. Our waitress kept our drinks filled and she was good and knowledgeable about the menu. Going on Valentine's Day evening it definitely took every bit of 20 minutes to get seated as they warned us they were running a bit behind on the evening. The place was a bit crowded but it's to be expected for an infamous date night. They appeared to be keeping the restaurant clean and it was also kid friendly as some tables had kids at them too. Food: The food is the reason for the 4 star rating. I am guessing because it was such a busy evening that it put the restaurant a bit behind and the food wasn't as perfect as we expected. We both ordered our steaks at a Medium temperature, and the restaurant menu even says it is not guaranteed that any steak will come out at Medium-well nor well-done if ordered that way. However, while my steak came out medium, my partner's steak came out much closer to medium-well. I would be willing to give them another chance though. Overall: A place that I would return to for the right night or event. The place is a bit expensive but it definitely gives the ambiance of a higher tier steakhouse. read more

My friend and I decided to try this place out because it had pretty good reviews. I'll keep this as short as I can. Ambiance - very nice and clean Service - waitress acted like she didn't want to be there. Didn't make any recommendations nor had much knowledge about the food. Food - I enjoyed the tasty, hot bread and butter before my meal. I did not enjoy my meal. I ordered the Cedar Plank Salmon with lemon Dijon butter. Very little smoky flavor from the plank could be tasted. The honey butter topping smother across the entire salmon was salty and burnt. Underneath all that topping, the salmon was bland. The sides were ok. It came with broccoli and whipped mashed potatoes My friend ordered the Ahi Tuna Salad. She enjoyed it, but was so upset at the lack of great service in such a nice looking place. Maybe I just ordered the wrong item, but after not liking my meal and the waitress not being so friendly, I won't be back. read more

We had reservations for 2:00 pm to celebrate my kid's birthday. We arrived shortly before and we were promptly seated. My daughter was given a birthday card that was signed by some members of the staff and I thought that was a thoughtful gesture. Our server was Kimmy/Kimberly. She was extremely pleasant and attentive. Atmosphere was nice and comfortable. We received bread, which were good. It's a warm poppyseed type roll, similar to what you get at Mike's and Patsy's if you've ever been there. We shared the steak and cheese egg rolls (delicious). My kid had the stacked burger and fries (she said they were yummy). My husband had fried shrimp with fries (he said it was really good). I had the chicken fingers with Cole slaw and baked potato (I liked it all except the slaw. It needed something...more). My daughter was also given a complimentary slice of chocolate cake for her birthday. Another wonderful gesture. The only thing I did not like was the lemonade. It was mixed with sprite. We would definitely go back, probably for dinner, to try other things. read more

This was everyones first time dining here. Perhaps the main chef(s) were not working last evening, because when each person in my party of 9 dislikes how their meal was prepared, and I see all of the 5-star reviews on Yelp, something definitely does not add up. 3 of us had the salmon - all 3 were not prepared/cooked properly. The waitress/service was very good. read more

This place had been one of our "go to" spots for a more upscale meal experience. However, in recent years the food quality and service has slipped. My favorites were always the whiskey river shrimp, the cheesesteak eggrolls and the meatloaf. Well, the last several time we've been there: the shrimp was cold, laying on its side on the plate, the sauce was cold, almost refrigerated cold, much smaller than usual and chewy/tough. The cheesesteak rolls were overcooked and had weird hard chunks in the meat, almost like bone chunks. The meatloaf was burned on one side and crunchy on the corners, not just charred but actually hard crunchy and therefore inedible on those parts. The servers were not knowledgeable of the menu and seemed like they didn't even want to be there. Unfortunate, because we are big tippers regardless of service or even food quality (which we STILL did with each of these less than stellar last few experiences). However, it'd be nice to feel good about these big tips we leave. Management should really look into what has changed there and change it back. read more

First, it disappoints me to give Stoney River 3 stars for tonight. I am a big fan but tonight just wasn't it. The service was great. We had several waitstaff helping us because we were there for a birthday dinner in one of the party rooms. The ambiance was dim and giving off of vibe that great food was about to be served...NOT! I ordered the 14oz ribeye medium well. This temp usually gives me a juicy center and not too pink. There was very little shrinkage with this steak however it was very dry. When I cut it, the meat appeared jagged but I saved my appetite all day so I just gnawed thru it ! The family style potatoes came out, sitting like DPW scooped up salt for a Maryland snow storm. They were so STIFF!!!!!!!!! They are usually creamy and delicious. The steamed broccoli was like it had never been steamed at all or seasoned at all. I had to cut it with a knife. For the newbies that was with us tonight, it was hard to convince them that our $129.00 per person bill was worth it. It truly was not. read more

My birthday was on Easter and I made a reservation for Stoney River literally at the very last minute. We arrived about 10 mins before time and they sat us immediately. The weather was fab so we sat outside. I do not remember the server's name but she was super sweet and she offered me a free piece of chocolate cake for my birthday! That cake was AMAZING. It was so moist and the chocolate sauce made it even better. So for starters we got the deviled eggs and the cheesesteak rolls. Both were delicious. The dipping sauce for the rolls was the bomb! I ordered the jumbo shrimp and my SO had the double burger. The size of the shrimp blew our minds! They were actually jumbo! Most places try to pass of med/lar shrimp as jumbo and I'm always disappointed. But no disappoint here! The fries were cool. A bit too salty for me though. My SO enjoyed the burger and would def order again. I can't wait to come back!! read more

Yesterday, we had maybe our 50th visit to this restaurant. They got rid of that comfy couch in front of the fireplace, but we got a nice booth nearby. Martin casually greeted us and was awesome through the entire lunch, and received their awesome rolls with honey butter which resemble more like beignets while we waited. We had a "french dip", which isn't on the menu, but they're happy to make it for you. Perfectly medium rare, with crispy, hot shoestring parm fries, and a caesar salad --which was nice and cold, and well dressed. Gotta have the dressing! Wife had a generously measured glass of the Prisoner red blend, and I had a dark rum old fashioned. I didn't like it, but I wanted to try it, since I hadnt seen one before. Everyone was cheerful. Overall, excellent visit. read more
