    BISTRO CHICKEN
    Daryl O.

    I had the bistro chicken at Stoney River, and honestly it just didn't have much flavor for me. I pretty much finished it because I was hungry more than because I really enjoyed it. On the bright side, the steak egg rolls were absolutely amazing and easily the highlight of the meal. I also really appreciated that the bar could make cocktails from just about anything they had on hand, because a lot of places can't do that. I'd still come back, but next time I'd definitely try a different entrée.

    I stopped by Stoney River at the Cumberland Mall location for a solo dinner and it was such a great experience. I sat at the bar and my bartender Jill was fantastic, friendly, attentive, and made the visit feel welcoming. I ordered my go to meal which is the meatloaf with creamed spinach and mashed potatoes. Pure comfort food done right. And I have to mention the rolls because they are hands down my favorite restaurant bread. Soft, warm, and absolutely addictive. For drinks I tried the Strawberry Fields cocktail and loved it so much that I ended up ordering two. It was refreshing, perfectly balanced, and paired well with my meal. Overall Stony River remains a consistently great dining option whether solo or with a group. Highly recommend this location for good food great service and a relaxing atmosphere.

    GRILLED SALMON

    Visited on Friday night for the first time to celebrate a relative's birthday. Our server Mía was very patient, friendly, and attentive. Family friendly restaurant. Plenty of parking. The rolls were magnificent. The spinach artichoke dip was a wonderful appetizer. The food was fresh and flavorful. Prices are reasonable. Would love to return.

    Entree special: bone-in pork chop with a cherry brandy sauce, mashed potatoes, and steamed broccoli.

    Another great meal at Stony River (Cumberland Mall). Service at the bar was exceptional. I've been served twice by this bartender and each time he's made excellent recommendations. Everyone from the host to the food expeditor/runner were professional and really great at what they do. The pork chop special was very good. I wish they would do something other than just steaming the broccoli, because that is the most lackluster portion of the meal. But overall, it was excellent.

    This was my first time here and I was very happy with it. The service was great and the food was delicious. The drinks were good as well.

    One of my favorite places to go for great appetizers and drinks. Stop being midday and was able to sit at the bar with no weight. Izzy was our service/bartender while we were there. She was absolutely amazing. We ordered the cheesesteak rolls the whiskey shrimp on toast and deviled eggs. Izzy gave us amazing recommendations for an old-fashioned and a new raspberry lemon drop that they have....perfection. Izzy was attentive, our food was fresh and delicious. It wasn't too busy in the restaurant, but still great energy and easy to holds conversation. All the staff were absolutely amazing and attentive.

    The food was great and well seasoned. I got great recommendations from my server. The eggrolls weren't anything special but they were great. The French onion soup was great as well. Everything came out very quickly and hot. Also I got the steak salad which was amazing, I would come back just for that! The vibe is really lively.

    As someone who is a big fan of French onion soup, this was one of the best that I've had in a long time. So good in fact that I came back again tonight just for the soup. Great bar service tonight from Courtney during a very busy Saturday night.

    Location: Cumberland Mall Area Time: 1:00pm 1/3/25 Ran some errands this morning and decided to go to lunch at Stoney River. Not too busy, you can tell just your normal work lunch crowd. Great customer service. Very clean, including the restroom. Steak salad was excellent $26 (used to be $19) It had two deviled eggs in the salad which were really good. Very nice portion, I ate half and took half home. Steak Rolls were a nice yummy appetizer. Topped off with a ginger ale. Ahh Everything is expensive nowadays but for me it was worth it. Really good Happy New Year Yelp!

    I didn't order this but I did taste it. Its shrimp on a garlic bread bun. Super tasty!

    Originally being from the south, it's hard to find Shrimp and Grits that is up to my standards, but Stoney River didn't disappoint. The flavor pops in your mouth. The shrimp was perfectly cooked and flavorful. Staff was professional and friendly. The restaurant itself has an upscalr byt homey feel to it. I would recommend reservations though. We got in early, but before we left, they were full. I really loved this restaurant on my recent visit to Atlanta GA.

    We had reservations for this place. We were greeted immediately and promptly seated. The restaurant was really nice more in line with a high end steakhouse. The food was delicious from the complimentary bread to our main entree's. We ordered Caesar salad, steak, eggrolls, lamb chops, and salmon, and everything was prepared nicely. This was my first time at this restaurant, but without question it will not be last.!

    The donut dinner rolls are simply amazing
    Brian G.

    Service was spot on My wife's steak was not cooked enough it was sent back They showed up with an extra potato the manager got involved and fixed the issue! Her dinner was then completely covered by them. The room was dark yet the tables were well lit! Candles on every table. There was a wedding dinner going on which was a bit louder than normal but not out of control. The food was delicious and the dinner rolls are simply delicious! Our server was very well mannered and appropriately dressed. He showed up when needed and was away for privacy! This was a romantic dinner location. I recommend it 1000% I did leave a large tip for the waiter.

    Fried shrimp - excellent! Huge serving too

We were there celebrating our engagement, and they made it feel so special by decorating our table with rings and confetti to celebrate our love. Our server gave us so much attention and made the experience feel personal. Since it was our first time there, they took the time to walk us through some of the best items on and off the menu, and shared their favorite dishes. Everything was done with care. The restaurant was clean, the bathroom was amazing, and the food was worth every dollar. The short rib was so tender, and the New York strip was seasoned to perfection and cooked medium well just how we like it. The twice-baked potato loaded with bacon, sour cream, chives, and cheese was delicious, and the mac and cheese was so good.

Bones has old money vibes - for example, the receptionist referred to us as Mr. and Ms. which I felt like was very polite and again, traditional. We were celebrating my birthday, and they pre-decorated our table a little bit! We got special print-out menus that said "Happy Birthday" and the table had a little bit of confetti on it! It was a nice gesture to be welcomed with. Our server, Michael, was great at being attentive (without being overly attentive), and providing recs/answering our questions. We went with the Crab and Lobster Napoleon for our app, the Ribeye to split, and a side of their famous Hash Browns. Everything was very good!! I will let the pictures speak for themselves, but all the food comes out hot, fresh, and with good flavor. I really do recommend getting the Hash Browns - it sounds a little silly to order such a dish at a steakhouse, but try it for yourself :) All dishes have a good portion size so keep that in mind when ordering! While not pictured, I do have to give a shoutout to the complimentary bread service - their bread is real good. Hot and fluffy on the inside, crispy on the outside. Try not to get full off the bread alone. For dessert, Bones surprised us with literally the tallest and thickest slice of ice cream cake I've ever seen! My jaw dropped. I love ice cream cake and it was awesome to be treated to some!! I already thought that the table decorations and the special menu were enough to recognize my birthday, but this is the generosity of Bones. I will absolutely be returning some day! If not for the amazing food, then for the equally amazing hospitality! Thank you Bones for a wonderful birthday! Note: Complimentary valet parking ONLY. We asked the valet person if we could just park the car but we weren't allowed to. Bring some cash for a tip.

Definitely a place to be seen and eat well. There's a parking garage but it was full when we got there, so we did valet, which was surprisingly affordable. Service was wonderful. Our server was attentive, helpful, and super knowledgeable about the menu. As for the food, we got: Aguachile de Pescado, which was insane. Super fresh, bright, citrusy, ceviche-like with perfect texture. I would go back just for that. The Hamachi was clean and bright. That avocado sauce tied everything together and gave it some depth without overpowering the fish. The Pork Belly Tostadas were crispy and rich with that smooth avocado mousse and sweet mango salsa balancing it out perfectly. Finally, the bone marrow with steak... so good. I had seen pictures of it before I came and it did not disappoint. The steak was incredibly tender. They bring blue corn tortillas and suggest making a taco with the marrow, steak, and avocado. It's great that way. But honestly, the marrow and steak stand perfectly on their own. Whole experience was excellent. Easily one of my favorite spots in the city now.

Right when we walked in, the staff complained to us that we hadn't called ahead to have a "smaller, special menu" crafted for a large party. To make matters worse, they loudly announced to the whole table right off rip that they wouldn't split checks separately--only an even split. It felt incredibly rude, lazy, and unwelcoming. The irony is that the large group size wasn't even an issue; we staggered our arrivals and the patio was completely empty. The kicker- my brother in law ended up paying the whole tab at the end anyways! so all of that initial laziness & nastiness for NOTHING! Throughout the night, the service felt incredibly rushed and stressed. While we were still eating our appetizers, the busser was aggressively trying to clear our plates because the mains were coming. Our server was very short with us the entire time, which was confusing because the restaurant didn't even have a stressful vibe. She recommended a main dish to me that I really didn't care for, though I will say the salsa was unique and probably the best part of the meal. Shoutout to the one staff member who was actually friendly, but overall, this is not the kind of place where you leave feeling like you had a nice restaurant experience- at least I personally didn't.. Too bad we didn't just go to C&S next door which we always love. Regardless tho, my sister had a blast, but that's entirely because she has a wonderful crew of great friends, not because of Casi Cielo.

Combined with the exceptional service and beautiful ambiance, the experience left a lasting impression and made me want to return for another try. That opportunity came this past Sunday. I originally planned to stop in for a drink and the bread service, but my boyfriend and I ended up ordering the Caesar salad and the Lobster Risotto as well. The bread service was just as amazing as I remembered. My boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed the Caesar salad, especially the freshly grated cheese, which he said was incredibly light and airy. As for the Lobster Risotto, it exceeded my expectations in both flavor and portion size. The risotto itself was somewhat mild on its own, but once I mixed in the herb butter, it became absolutely delicious. The lobster itself was very tender and tasty, I loved it. I've officially fallen in love with Marcel and will definitely be adding it to my list of go-to dinner spots. The bread service, ambiance, interior design, and customer service are all outstanding. I truly appreciate supporting businesses that consistently deliver such a high-quality experience.

A moody, retro, classic world where…read morebowties are worn unironically in a setting that could best be described as a boxing gym renovated with industrial touches to become a steakhouse in the 1940s. That world could be anywhere. It could even be in Midtown West Atlanta. Service was impeccable. Servers knew we were celebrating our anniversary and were attentive and helpful when making tough menu choices. Pacing was definitely geared toward fine dining. 40 minutes between starters and entree was a BIT long, but it went by. Steak was wonderful (a porterhouse for 2), cooked to a perfect medium rare with seasoning appropriately calibrated to not overpower. East and west coast oysters were fresh and the Marcel salad to start was underdressed and lacked flavor (I enjoyed how they plopped a mound of bleu cheese on top to mix in; I pushed this aside which my server and I laughed about. He said he'd do the same. Maybe it's a sign). Hot bread service with a spreadable cheese and prosciutto was a nice touch. The French fries are probably the best I've ever had, and the asparagus was asparagus (slightly undersalted if anything). Chocolate cake was impressive in presentation but unremarkable for flavor and consistency. My wife enjoyed her decaf coffee as the best she's had at a restaurant, but her cocktail left something to be desired and was extremely tart. A Mexican coke was perfect enough for me. The pricing here is exorbitant. The price tag isn't necessarily a problem given the caliber of dining experience and ambiance that Marcel provides, but given some of the misses on staple items (namesake salad, "famous" chocolate cake), I'm not sure that value for dollar spent is present. In transparency, our dinner comprised of the above was over $400 with tip, which was aligned with expectations walking in the door. Whether the food stood up to the actual place and pricing is a debate. I lean toward an answer of "almost, but close enough not to be insulted." If a gun was pointed at my head to pick the "best steakhouse" in Atlanta, I'd pick Bones without thinking twice. This place is a close second probably, but places like Nowaks in Sandy Springs, while not the same echelon of formality, might have Marcel beat on flavor and definitely have Marcel beat on value for the dollar. Is Marcel's concept valid and well executed? Yes, without question. Would I want somebody else to pay if I returned? Yes, without question. 4.3/5 stars

I think the logistics of getting fresh seafood makes it more expensive in Atlanta for certain selections? I'll give them the benefit of the doubt on that one.

Our waiter was incredibly sweet and patient with us, especially since we were a little indecisive and had plenty of questions. The restaurant itself was beautifully decorated, clean, and had a really nice atmosphere. I started with the lychee martini, which is easily in my top five lychee martinis I've had. The bread was a little underwhelming, but the butter made up for it. For my entrée, I ordered the wet-aged 16oz ribeye cooked medium, and wow -- it was phenomenal. Crispy on the outside, perfectly cooked, juicy, and served sizzling straight from the skillet. I got the green peppercorn sauce on the side, but honestly, the steak didn't even need it.

We arrived using the valet service, which usually makes dinner much more convenient. Unfortunately, this was probably the weakest part of the experience. The valet attendants weren't very welcoming, seemed a bit disorganized, and there was no one to open the door upon arrival. We also had to wait for our valet ticket, and retrieving our car at the end of the evening took much longer than expected. There's definitely room for improvement in this area. Once inside, check-in with the host was smooth, and we were seated on the outdoor patio with a beautiful view on a perfect summer evening. Our server, Jason, was phenomenal. He was attentive without being overbearing, knowledgeable about the menu, and had impeccable timing throughout the meal. He truly elevated the experience and is a great asset to the restaurant. I would absolutely request him again on a future visit. For appetizers, I highly recommend the fried Maine lobster tail--it was perfectly fried, well-seasoned, and delicious. The Kobe meatballs were good but didn't quite stand out enough to rave about. For our entrée, we shared the 24-ounce porterhouse with lobster mac and cheese and Brussels sprouts. Everything was well prepared, and we had no complaints about the meal. To drink, I ordered two vodka martinis and the guava vodka spritzer. The martinis were exactly what you'd expect, but the guava vodka spritzer stole the show. It was refreshing, beautifully crafted, and the perfect cocktail for a summer evening on the patio. My significant other enjoyed a glass of wine, and the wine selection appeared to offer plenty of options. One thing that stood out was the manager, Brit, making a point to greet several surrounding tables. We appreciated that level of hospitality and were actually looking forward to complimenting Jason's outstanding service. However, despite making eye contact, our table was completely skipped--no greeting, no smile, no acknowledgment. Combined with the disappointing valet experience, it left us feeling overlooked. While the food was excellent and Jason made our evening memorable, the lack of hospitality from both valet and management would make me think twice before choosing Little Alley over the many other great steakhouses in Atlanta. Jason, however, is the reason this visit ended on a positive note.
