    Steak and Cheese with fries

    The food, I give it a thumbs up, the service is good but you will need to tell the bartender where your sitting at, its self seating when you come in. The ambiance is good they had the football games on and it not too noisy to hear the games, good atmosphere here. I would definitely come back here with friends.

    Never seen fat orange cat on tap...maybe next time i go I'll try it.

    I was at Phillips for the Bonnard exhibit on the third floor. Very well put together if you like impressionists. I was craving some wings and remembered Stoney's came up on a list for "best wings in DC". It was a nice day and I decided to go. Maybe a 5 block walk, nice weather. I roll in a few minutes after 11AM Saturday last. The kitchen was still catching up so I ordered a Stoney's lager and had a seat at the bar. It's a small place, going back a bit from the street. Definitely a neighborhood hangout. Soccer is on (fun to watch but i don't know anything about soccer). After another beer I order some wings hot. I was hungry and thirsty was being worked on. The wings show up after someone scored a goal on the big TV. They're hot and fresh. Just what I was in the mood for. The wings have cooled off enough to eat. Very tasty. Definitely filling if you're looking for some quality chicken. I grab another brew and I'm out. Nice place for a meal or drink with friends. Chase behind the bar is a solid server right on time when I'm empty with the glass or the wings.

    Good place to grab a meal and drink in DC. I went to DC for a girl's trip in July 2022 with one of my best friends. Our Air BnB was about a block and half from Stoney's which was extremely convenient. We arrive on a Thursday afternoon to DC. After traveling all day from North Carolina and getting to our Air BnB we were tired and just wanted to have a chill night exploring the area a bit. We decided to just walk around and stumbled on Stoney's and decided to check it out and I'm glad we found it on our first night. When we arrived we sat ourselves. The restaurant looks smaller from the outside than it is. It's not wide, but it is long. There's a big section in the back then the kitchen is also in the back. We sat in the bar area, but not at the bar. We ordered a few things to share. We ordered a pizza and onion rings and wings. They were all good and the prices were great. We enjoyed it so much that we decided to return Saturday for a take-out order to take back to our Air BnB. This time I ordered a bowl of chili and my friend ordered a burger. Both were delicious! It definitely has a local feel, which I loved. DC is a tourist hot spot, but I always appreciate finding local hidden gems.

    Most most delicious Grilled Ham & Cheese

    What a fantastic meeting place with lots of energy. OK this is the cutest meeting place/sports bar grilled cheese exciting atmosphere to go. We found this place thru my son and it was a 5 star experience. The sever was happy to greet us and inform us the specials and we were there to watch football, eat and drink! The grilled ham and cheese was amazing, the French fries bring a group Of friends and you will not be disappointed!

    Another great meal at Stoney's. It was a slow day. However, still really good service and experience. It was also a fun local crowd at the bar with Reese. She was amazing, very attentive, and kept my drink filled without asking. I love this place for the tater tots. I came in for a burger but remembered they had grill cheese. So, I got the Rocket with tater tots (small upcharge for the tots). The bread was tasty, sprinkled with sunflower seeds. Enjoyed the Swiss cheese. Both sandwich and tots were amazing. Love this place. Stop by and check them out.

    Overall not impressive with my visit here sorry Our waitress was very nice and attentive and she was a great seller and sweet. HOWEVER my brother and i complaints was the bathroom where smelly awful and super dirty . My biggest concern was health wise. We saw more than one mouse running towards the kitchen spoiled my appetite i was no way i could eat there we leave right away. I do not recommend anyone to eat here sorry drinks only alcohol kill germs right.....

    Walked in no host no one to tell us where to go, looked to the left didn't see a bartender . We just walked to the back and sat ourselves . A waiter greeted us and provided menus and started us out with water , he gave recommendations, we decided on onion rings, and shared a cup of chili for starters and me and my guest had decided on the crab cake. The sandwich was well prepared and the presentation was nice but the crab cake itself although moist in texture was devoid of ALL flavor. They paired it with some type Of dill sauce , the sauce didn't help at all . The chili tasted like the can of chili they gave you in grade school by hormel , just wasn't good and lacked flavor. The manager that evening was a gentleman by the name of Asante , I asked him what it was on the way out of the establishment on Saturday , I wasn't pleased with my experience at all food or customer service .

From start to finish, I have absolutely no negative feedback at all. 1. The Food Everything we ordered was completely divine! Here's the rundown: -Sandwiches: My husband got a Bogan Bun. My son a Mumbo Bun chicken sandwich and listen, he didn't speak a single word the entire meal because he was enjoying it so much! I ordered the Lucky Bun made with an Impossible patty. It was everything! Best I've had at a restaurant! In fact, my son, who loves beef burgers and claims he doesn't like plant based meat, ended up eating the rest of my burger! He tore that plant based meat DOWN! -Thick cut chips & Queso: The waiter let us know that their portion of fries (chips) could easily feed 3 to 4 people. He was not lying at all. The three of us shared one basket. I don't know if the sandwiches or the fries stole the show. These fries were seasoned to absolute perfection!!! SERIOUSLY! Not the typical sprinkle on top, but seasoned on every single side like someone picked up each fry and hand sprinkled each fry. Think I'm fibbing look at my pic. We ordered a side of queso for dipping and it was so good I wish I had some right now. If you're reading, hear me out Lucky Bun....add tortilla chips and queso to the menu please!!!! I would buy it just to scoop up that delicious cheese. -The Garlic Aioli: why am I highlighting a condiment???? Because!! lol!! It wasn't just standard mayo mixed with garlic powder. You could tell someone actually finely minced fresh garlic and herbs into it. It was so good I couldn't decide whether to dip my fries in the aioli or the queso! So that's why it's in my review! 2. Service The service was exceptional. There was no wait time at all. We walked straight in and were seated immediately. The food came out extremely fast which surprised us since we all ordered completely different proteins. They were speedy but all of our food arrived perfectly warm. The host, a slim gentleman, and our waitress, a lovely young lady rockin locs, were both incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming. I'm telling you good service makes the food even better! 3. Restaurant Look and Seating The inside of the restaurant is fairly small, but they maximized the space with multiple tables and a full service bar. They also have outdoor dining and a front waiting area with outdoor furniture, which would be perfect for a nice summer day. You don't even have to ask me because you already know the answer. YES!!! The next time I am in DC, I will specifically make time to go there. Even if I'm not staying in the immediate area, I would gladly take an Uber just to eat here again and so will my family! Make sure you get there too!

You know a drink is special when it outshines a stellar patty melt and fries, and the Antigua Bound definitely did that. Do yourself a favor and get to Lucky Buns DC (18th Street location) for some amazing food, and whatever you do, do NOT leave without trying the Antigua Bound. You'll thank me later! You're welcome!

Server came by, not so much as a greeting or introduction, just a short, "do you know what you want?" Fine - no problem. We ordered two avocado toasts and side of fries to share. Now, the menu clearly says the avocado toasts are served with a "runny egg". Ok sure, no problem. What i did not anticipate was a half raw egg with the yolk swimming in a sea of translucent completely uncooked "whites". It was like a golden disc encased in a snot rocket. Ok, maybe that's their "runny". Slide it off the toast and press on - snail trail of mucus be damned. The avocado spread was great - bright, citrusy, and well seasoned. The "hot sauce" was likely from a bottle and could have been left off. The radishes would have benefitted from being tossed in lemon, salt and pepper. The image of the "runny" egg was too much so I ate half the toast serving and meandered to the fries. Not bad, crispy , hot, and...wait...sweet...something is off, I can't put my finger on it but at least it's not a raw egg. I keep eating. My kids looks at me and says, "do these remind you of funnel cake?" THAT'S IT - FUNNEL CAKE. We have both had enough, ask for the check.

It only took a quick 10 minutes to receive our entire order, which was 3 burgers, a crispy fried chicken sandwich, loaded fries, and 2 milkshakes! I was very happy with how efficient the service was and the most important part, how delicious every bite was! The smashburgers are made with 100% halal beef and they come out HOT with perfectly crispy edges on the patties and a juicy center. We ordered 3 burgers and each of them stood out in their own way. You can get a single, double, or triple patty burger and add whatever toppings to it too. The jalapeño burger was the star of the show, it had a such a nice and spicy kick to it. I wasn't expecting much but this burger had HEAT! Another favorite was the Juicy Lucy. It was packed with grilled onions and the patty was stuffed with cheddar cheese. A super messy and cheesy option that was definitely worth every bite! I liked that Jon's Joint offered other options too such as loaded fries and fried chicken sandwiches. What I found unique is that for the loaded fries, you can get it with falafel and make it spicy! This time, they had run out of the falafel so I am excited to try it next time.

I've NEVER been at a restaurant that didn't have any pepper. Plenty of salt, seasoned salt and even more salt. No pepper. Burgers seem to be popular. Wasn't very crowded, but seemed popular by locals. It was a "meh" for me. I do however really like that the food is cooked to order.
