    I love going to stones. I’ve gone many times in the past the ambience is lovely. It was a very cold evening and having the fireplace all roaring just made it feel cozy and warm. The food was excellent. The only thing that I would recommend to make it better is if they would start having specials and add new dishes to the menu. I’ve been coming here for six years and the menu remains the same. Otherwise I would come more often the biggest suggestion I could make for an Irish restaurant is to add to the menu Guinness, Irish beef stew that is what is missing from their menu

    Best pub around. Ok, maybe the only authentic pub for quite some distance. Went full Irish this time with a Guinness and Lamb Shepherds Pie. Not sure any other place offers this outside of Boston. LAMB, not ground beef. Remember, shepherds don't watch cows, they watch sheep. The Lamb Shepards Pie comes piping hot on its own cast iron serving plate. Very tasty and tender. Claudianni was a great server. The tavern side gets noisy, but it's a pub. More quiet in the dining room section . We usually eat in the tavern.

    We had a wonderful dinner at Stone’s. The restaurant was busy at 8pm on a cold February night in the suburbs. Service was quick, friendly, and efficient. A bread basket was delivered to the table with slices of a rustic brown bread. It’s been a while since we’ve gotten bread at the table at Stone’s, perhaps they’ve brought it back. The food arrived the table hot, everyone enjoyed their food. Some of the dishes are a la carte, so you need to order your sides separately. I had the seafood stew which has a great assortment of seafood, shrimp, scallops, clams, mussels, and cod served with a healthy chunk of bread to sop up the sauce. We also had a lovely bottle of red wine. The wine list has a good selection of moderately priced bottles and glasses. The atmosphere is cozy. Fires were burning in the two wood fireplaces. The restaurant was busy, but were able to converse easily. We’ll definitely be back again soon.

    Always a good time. Really wish they offered more (or at least one or two) vegan options.

    We had a great Friday night in the bar area by the fire. Dinner was great, we enjoyed the seafood chowder, a burger, corn beef sandwich and chicken Milanese salad. The beers were cold, service was good and friendly with our server Sam. It was a wonderful relaxing night!

    This place is consistently wonderful. The servers, the food, the drinks, and the vibe are always on point. We brought friends who are new to town for this visit, and they agreed that it is such a great place. Note that I have a ton of food allergies and never feel like I am left out here.

    We had a table for 6 in the bar area. We all had different meals and everything was fabulous! Cocktails were also wonderful! We had been there for dinner the night before and sat near the fireplace on the bar. It was my husband’s birthday yesterday so we decided to take the family. Everything was wonderful. The Guinness brownie that we all shared was delish! We will be back!!’
