Our original waitress Jenna was rude and and ONLY dropped off the water!! A co-worker had to take over and that waitress was amazing! I would have rated service and atmosphere a 5!

Food was terrible, I ordered a Cobb salad w/grilled shrimp. It came w/llike shrimp cocktail shrimp, not grilled. Awful. I would not recommend this restaurant for anything but drinks. Will not be back for food certainly!!!

I booked a celebration of life at Stones Common House and Kitchen. Lisa was unbelievably helpful through the whole process. The food and atmosphere were perfect and we received a lot of compliments from the guests. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a nice, friendly atmosphere with delicious food.

Food is very good. Service was poor last time. So bad I never will never returned. Wife and I got there before it was busy and then more people came in and we became the forgotten couple. Other people that came after us were getting their apps, their meals, their drinks before us. Our app was brought out by a young guy holding a broom and dustpan in one hand and our appetizer in the other. Last straw was when I asked for water and waited 10 minutes while other customers were tended to so i got up and walked to the bar and got the water myself. I was not happy and the manager felt bad and comp'd our meals. I would have given 5 stars if it were not for the awful service.

Chose to dine here before a show at the theater across the street. Were with 2 elderly women and were seated in the middle of the restaurant. The server heard one of the guest ask me if we could move as they were concerned about being able to hear. The server said that they were fully booked and could not accomodate the request. However, we were only one of about 5 tables seated at the time and wanted to go to a same size table in the corner. Ordered the hummus app, DELISH, and the server brought a box and dropped it on the table when we were not even halfway through eating it. Not a great menu selection, but we chose some items. Husband loved the antipasto salad. The rest were not very good. Alfredo sauce was terrible! We are in the area often and will not go back.
Went to Stones with a party of 8 including 2 young children. The staff was friendly and accommodating. They were also sensitive to food allergies. Loved the environment and the food.
Our server was great! The food was disappointing for the cost and the menu changed drastically from what it used to be. Don't fall for the “not a wedge” salad with the steak....its a wedge salad with few steak pieces. The deviled eggs were nasty and tasted like vinegar and they put pepper on top not paprika. Restaurant was loud as heck even when there were no customers in the restaurant. But as it filled up you couldn't hear anyone. The bathroom also had a strange smell to it. Definitely don't think we will be coming back

Food was great! Baked Eggs, French toast & frittatas! One minor hiccup - one of the frittata's came out cold - all else was great! Coffee, huge side order of bacon, fruit cup! So good! Room was a bit loud - but energetic atmosphere! Probably the best brunch north of Boston!

Can't comment on the service and atmosphere because it was delivery. Had been meaning to try this place for a while because I'd heard good things and it has good ratings. Zero clue what the hype is about. The food was really pretty gross. Got the loaded fries and pork tacos. The cheese sauce on the fries tasted legit like heated up gritty packaged pub cheese spread. Fries were soggy but, to be fair, that might be because they were delivered. The tacos were like... criminally saltless and the refried beans on them tasted like they were prefab from a can. It all LOOKS fancy, but it's subpar food at best. Would not order again.
We stopped here after a day of traveling simply based on how good the cheeseburger looked. The food did not disappoint. We started with the pretzels and beer cheese - 3 smaller pretzels with a house made cheese. It was yum. The pretzels were not as hot as I would have wanted but taste was on point. All 4 of us opted for a burger. There were no bites left. One of the best I have had in a while. Hubs had a cold pint of Guinness and I had a seasonal cranberry mule. Kids finished with the included scoop of vanilla ice cream. Our kids asked if we could stop again on our way back to the airport next week. That says it all.

The hostess was visibly overwhelmed and had a difficult time understanding how to manage everything. The service was slow. Got my glass of red wine after we had all finished our meals.. Otherwise good.

The food and service were very good as was the location and parking. The room was cafeteria like, crowded with no partitions, booths , nooks or crannies. There was literally nothing to absorb sound and the sound was pretty much unbearable. After ordering drinks we talked about paying the bill and leaving before ordering food but we stayed. An excellent meal was made totally unenjoyable by the sound decibel level. I had read reviews previous to booking and truly wish I had heeded the loud warnings. Take out if they have it. Noise canceling ear phones if not. We cannot go back.

I go there for my favorite things. The hummus plate is one of those favorite things, because of its amazing pita bread. Well, I went last night to show my boyfriend this amazing pita bread. When they brought it out, there was NO PITA BREAD on the hummus plate. I asked about it and the server said they were out. Well, that woulda have been nice to know while I was ordering it. Very disappointed.
