   Never even got seated because the hostess was awful. Uncomfortable experience all around.

   The place was jammed. They are short on wait staff and our server ran her feet off. It took a while to get someone to take our check and the young person working at the host stand/check in desk refused/didn't know how? We had said we were going to see the Christmas lights at the Zoo. We ended up being nearly an hour late getting there even though the restaurant staff knew what we were planning to do. The cauliflower appetizer tasted a bit on the dull. There as some light coating on it but minimal flavor. The caesar salad was not well dressed, not enough cheese and it could have done with a few less croutons on it. The lettuce was fresh and crunchy. The fish tacos were tasty. I wish that the taco/nacho chips that they served as the side with the tacos had some salsa. There were three women sitting at the table next to us who couldn't have been any louder if they tried making it unpleasant to try and have a conversation with my dinner guest.

   The service was very slow, entrees were all served at different time and 6 of the 9 meals were cold and had to be sent back. Ordered a second round of drinks that were never received.

   Great festive cocktails for the season! The menu has lots of variety. The skinny burger was perfect! Highly recommend this fine establishment.

   The Stones Common House & Kitchen had both excellent food and ambiance. The steamed mussels appetizer were in a delicious sauce that could be served as a soup on its own. The bourbon & honey glazed brisket were tasty and cooked just right, and I don't usually order brisket. I wasn't looking for dessert, but there were only two choices. I definitely plan to go back.

   The Goat Cheese Fritters with honey drizzle were an excellent starter. The drinks were mixed just right. The Skinny Burger was excellent and the Cubano was the best one I've had anywhere. Excellent food at good value!

    No host/hostess to check people in for awhile. So we just sat at the bar. Service seemed much better there than if we actually took our table.
