If you are running a steak house, that is the food that must shine. Unfortunately, that is not the case here. When I ordered my steak, I asked if they were prime cuts, and nobody could answer. They then sent out the Maitre d, who didnt even know the difference between select, choice, and prime cuts...EVEN AFTER GOING TO THE KITCHEN! The best non relevant answer I ever got, was that they were "USDA" steaks...duh! I ordered my ribeye medium, and it cam bloody dripping rare, and had to send it back. My wife ordered her petite filet medium rare, and it came medium well...she just ate hers. I would guess these steaks to be of select grade at best...certainly not the prime price they were charging. The wait service was great. There was always somebody "hovering" nearby to attend to refills and other needs, however, this restaurant is very, very dark. I dont like eating food that I can barley see. The wine list was very large and versatile. I enjoyed a very nice French dry red, for $8...not too bad. I might go back sometime to try something different, but its certainly not on my "must go again" list...especially at a $80 dinner for two.
Pros: Good wine list, great service
Cons: dark, over-priced, unknowledgeable

My wife and I tried Stoney River for a special ocasion after a couple recommendations from coworkers. Reservations are non-existent and by calling ahead you only receive "preferred seating" at a 30 minute wait. The location was nice and easy to get to just off Rt 33 and I-270 with adequate parking. Unless there are less than 10 people waiting for seating [preferred or not], you are left either standing outside, in the bar, or obstructing the isles and interrupting waiter flow [need a larger waiting area]. With preferred seating, plan on waiting more than 30 minutes. Atmosphere was loud and the womens restroom was out of order [had to use the kitchen employee restrooms]. Waiter attendance and promptness was excellent . Two Coffee Fillets [house specialty] one well and the other medium were ordered and delivered in satifactory time. The well done fillet was good. The medium done fillet was less than satisfactory [borderline editable]. The side dishes delivered were luke warm at best and each were of size for a party of four. Given the rave Stoney River was referred, I could easily recommend several other restaurants in the Columbus area in which to dine with the same access, less wait time, better atmosphere, and quality meals [at equal or less cost]. Dining Rating: 4 [Stoney River Overrated for our dining experience]. Return Rating: 0 [No].
Pros: Access
Cons: Food

My first two visits to this restaurant have been nothing short of outstanding. I enjoyed the atmosphere, the welcoming nature of all the staff and a meal that was outstanding. The strip was as good as I have ever had and the Chocolate Cake is amazing. This is my new favorite restaurant in Dublin...and everywhere else they have a location.
Pros: Flavorful food and friendly staff
Cons: A bit of a wait, but they'll take call-aheads
