Stone Road Grille - A NOTL fine dining must!

 

 
On Saturday,
I had the pleasure of dining at one of our
favorite Niagara on the Lake restaurants:
 
Stone Road Grille
aka REST
 
 
 
Before ordering anything,
a complimentary basket
of in house freshly baked bread
is brought to your table.
Some of the best bread I've had.
 
Being the oyster lovers we are,
this is one of the few restaurants in NOTL
with a fabulous oyster bar.
The mignonette sauce they make
for the oysters is impeccable.
 
We can't go to Stone Road without
starting with some oysters and champagne.
 
 
 
 A absolute favorite appetizer
is the Chicken Liver Mousse.
 
Often when attending a dinner party,
we call up Stone Road and order up a
Vintners Plate "to go" just so we can get the
chicken liver mousse.
 
They had a few new menus items since
we had last been, including the Jerk mussels.
 
 
 
 Mussels, Chicken Liver Mousse, Thyme Frites
to start
 
This is another restaurant in which allows
you to bring your own wine!
 
Seeing as we were celebrating some birthdays,
a special bottle of vino was brought.
 
It paired beautifully with our meals.
 
Endive Salad:
Smoked trout, with pickled beet, goats cheese,
Gala apple, fried shallots, tarragon and chive vinaigrette.
 
 
Striped Bass:
Crushed Potatoes with oven dried tomatoes and spring onion,
Chickpeas, sheep’s milk feta, fried zucchini and sauce Romesco
 
No disappointments.
 
The sweet finish,
Sticky toffee pudding
and a B52
 
 
I have yet to be let down by this exquisite restaurant.
 
With the ambiance being so unique and cozy,
It remains to be my top NOTL choice,
and overall, top three restaurants in the area.
 
If your more the pizza to go kinda person,
they make one of the BEST pizzas on the
"Rest to GO GO" end of the place,
which is take out only.
 
If your ever in the area,
try out Stone Road -
it won't disappoint!
