The Stone Grill has been a favourite restaurant of ours for the last few years. It has always been a pleasant experience. We decided to give it another visit last weekend as we haven't been since it was revamped. First impressions were good. The restaurant looked beautiful and much brighter inside than it used to be. The staff were quick to take our order and serve our drinks and food. That's the positives. Now for the negatives. There used to be many more booths which were spacious and cosy at the same time. Now some of those have been replaced with small tables which are very exposed and close to each other. I understand they are trying to get in as many people as possible and it's not good for them having two people sitting in a table for four and usually I'd agree with that. But the nature of this restaurant is different because you don't get just two plates down. You get hot stones, sides etc. On top of that we decided to get the exotic meat sharer for two. Which consists of 6 different cuts of exotic meat served on two long wooden boards. When you add those boards to the hot stones, the plates and the sides the table was awfully overcrowded. It made eating very uncomfortable. We had to eat our meat straight off the hot stones as there was not enough space to put our plates in front of us. It really ruined the dining experience. As for the food, we noticed there are new items on the menu so I decided to order the frogs legs. I've eaten those in other restaurants so I was looking forward to trying them again. I was disappointed to say the least. Other places usually serve them either battered or roasted. What I've got here was pale, boiled meat which was swimming in olive oil. Didn't look appetising and didn't taste nice either. My husband said his squid started was lovely. The exotic meat was nice and more than enough for two people. It was good to see they had so many different types this time. As on all our previous visits for years there was only kangaroo steak available. The staff were very friendly and polite. The drinks and food were served quickly. I asked for my stone to be replaced and Emily did that in no time. My only complaint was that even though the staff could see that our table was overcrowded with plates etc. they didn't attempt to remove any even when we were finished with some of them. So we left with mixed feelings. We don't know whether the issues were caused by the fact it was Saturday night and it was very busy. But still when you pay so much money you would like to get a pleasant experience whether it's busy or not. We will probably give it another try as we love the restaurant and we've been going there for years. We just hope it will be a positive experience next time.
