We went to Stony Ridge for dinner tonight. NEVER AGAIN!!! Pre dinner drinks were mostly ice and expensive. Barely a taste of liquor. The food was terrible except for the onion rings and fries. I ordered a Rubin. No sauerkraut or corned beef to be found. Mostly toast and some sickening sauce. 7 people in our group with a variety of orders and everyone was disappointed. Expensive charge for a sub standard meal.

Food was great

The Truth

If you’re ever up in the Ely area and looking for a menu, that’s diverse with a lot of options. This is the place to go. Honestly, some of the best burgers I’ve ever had and you would never know unless you find this place on the beaten path in town. I first pulled up and I said no way but when I went in, I said hell yeah. The food was amazing.

We were at the cafe at 1:30pm Saturday July 5th. Perhaps one of the busiest days of the year for a place like this, which is about 15 tables and 2-3 teenagers on staff in front. We waited over an hour for our food. In that time, the server never checked on us once, and we watched other tables arrive, eat and leave as we sat swatting mosquitos, starving. Our food ($170 order, 5 burgers and the fish) finally arrived, bagged in styrofoam, dropped on the table with no utensils, napkins or condiments. An additional fee of $1.50 per entree for 'takeout' was added to our bill. As we left, the manager claimed none of this was their fault, because they were busy. You might have a great time here, but I won't be back. There are plenty of other places to eat in Ely.

Humongous menu full of burgers. At least 45 different kinds, almost half pound burgers. Soda pop is a can.
Burgers are 16 to 25 bucks with a side.

We make a point to visit the cafe every year we visit Ely! The burgers are large and VERY good. The menu offers a fun variety of creative burgers to try.

I don’t know how this place isn’t more popular?! This is one of the best restaurants we’ve eaten at in a LONG time!! And there was no one there on a Friday night? The view on the deck overlooking the lake was beautiful, the hand carved wood tables and chairs were such a vibe, amazing almost 3/4lb burgers with amazing toppings. Loved!! They had no problem with us being gluten free and asked for no bun. Prices for burgers were on par, but the prices of drinks were pretty spendy (they probably could have the prices of the drinks on the menu)

Reviewing the burger restaurant, great indoor and outdoor seating with huge selection of burger creations. Every option we had was great and at least 1/2 lb. Wish we got a few more onion rings and fries on the side.

Great food, decent service. Patio is NOT dog friendly.

This review is for the cafe. Finally got here after having heard about this place for years. Burgers are worth all the hype, service was great, and the views are nice as well.
