| - I liked it here.
We were driving from Solon to Canton Airport on a Thursday afternoon looking for somewhere DIFFERENT to eat. Usually along the highway there are chains and chains of the same ol big named restaurants..... needless to say when we say Steak on a Stone, we thought.. what the heck??? And decided to give it a try.
A very unassuming interior, and probably even a more plain exterior doesn't scream "try me", but i am glad we did. That usu sally happens when you open a place into an already established building, you don't get to put your own 'stamp' on it.
We sat over by the windows and there really aren't a lot of views being right off of I-77.. but we were hear to EAT, so let me get to the important part.
For an Appetizer we had Saginaki - a Kasseri cheese that they saute and flambeed at your table. Very cool. Guy almost caught his hair on fire getting alittle too close... but the cheese you spread on break.. and it was OH SO GOOD.
So the theme of the place is that you cook your own food, on your own little 'stone' that is heated at a temperature in excess of 750degrees.. We both got steak and mashed potatoes... oh, and in case you don't think when faced with Delicious food.. DONT TOUCH THE STONE. So, we were able to cut up our almost rare steak into pieces and cook those pieces as long as you want.. medium, well, etc. They also have Scallops, Port Tenderloin, Chicken.. Lamb Chops...
When making a selection you get to choose from 2 sauces.. from house steak sauce to Lemon Garlic Oil, or Jack Daniels and Mind Jelly.. or plain ol' melted butter... they have about 12 to choose from. I liked the House Steak Sauces just fine.
The mashed potatoes were good, i like when they leave the skins on them and mash them a bit lumpy.
We liked what we tried for what the theme is. There have pasta and other things for those who aren't into it. I am glad we came... This is a good lunch place, i think we paid about $20 total per person with a drink and our appetizer... so not too bad. Thumbs up from me and my travel companion...
