My friend wanted to have her birthday dinner here & for once I didn't do any yelp research beforehand! Stoke is located in the Marriott hotel. I strongly recommend putting the Marriott's address into your gps.
1) The atmosphere is so laidback and adorable. We were seated in the middle at a marble table. The pepper grinder on the table was a shiny copper. The restaurant felt very modern.
2) The drinks are good! The cocktails range from $10 - $15, and everyone loved their drinks. No complaints from anyone at the table. My drink of choice was the Apple Orchard (crown apple is life!).
3) The food is where things get a little dicey. It was a hit or miss experience.
Pretzel Brioche bread w/ whipped butter - good
Pork Shank - amazing
Squid Ink pasta - fail. Everyone who ordered it sent it back to the kitchen.
Charred Octopus - one the salty side, but edible
Esquites - was okay
Fish of the day - meh
1lv donut - yes, please!
Order the pork shank! Pass on the squid ink pasta. It was overcooked & mushy.
I would return for drinks. I would probably eat elsewhere since their menu is so limited.
