Best Dam Tacos I've had in a long time!

First time at Stonies. Food came out before drinks because apparently the bartender was pretty behind. Drinks were extremely sweet and barely any alcohol in them.
Food was pretty greasy I'd say. According to the menu, the pretzel picture showed just a plain salted pretzel but when it came out it was covered in cheese, Jalapeño, and bacon. It was good but I was looking forward to the plain salted pretzel because I ordered carn asada fries and that had mostly similar toppings. It was a bit much.

Maybe ill try other foods next time. Felt it was a little expensive for what we got too.

Food was ok, not exceptional

This place is really more of an oversized bar with bar food menu. Food is average, not terrible. There just isn't much competition for this type of restaurant near Salinas, CA.

Food's pretty good, but definitely on the heavier side as you'd expect for the style of restaurant. Good beer, but I'd love it if they had at least 1 non-alcoholic beer on the menu

I haven't ordered anything I didn't like! Always great service. Lively atmosphere. Live music and great cocktails. I just wish the bathrooms were bigger.

The food was ok but the sides were on the skimpier side. The cocktails were good and reasonably priced. The atmosphere and waitress were awesome. My only issue was the restrooms! I had to walk to no hill to use the restroom because the lines to the bathroom were ridiculous! I can’t believe a restaurant like that only has 2 bathroom stalls.

Only. 2. Restrooms. That sucks
20 minutes or more to pee

Stonies is a solid spot for BBQ with a good atmosphere and friendly service. The ribs are definitely the highlight--tender, flavorful, and well-cooked. The BBQ pulled pork grilled cheese and birria tacos are also worth trying, and my wife really enjoyed the mango fusion shrimp tacos.

They have a nice selection of craft beers and mixed drinks, which pair well with the food. The place has a good vibe, and they sometimes have live music, which adds to the experience. Service was attentive without being intrusive.

One thing that stands out about Stonies is that the owners are active in giving back to the community, which makes supporting this place even better.

Overall, if you're in the mood for BBQ and a laid-back setting, Stonies is a good choice. Worth checking out.

All around meh experience. There are two toilets for the entire restaurant. My family ordered the Mac n cheese, fries, nachos, and tacos. The Mac n cheese was watery and tasteless. The asada tacos were way too salty. The nachos were edible and the the beer was fine. The bus (bust?) boys were super sweet and came around often to clear the table and refill drinks. The place has nice big windows and an open concept floor plan which makes it feel spacious. But honestly it comes down o the food and price- and it's just not worth it.
