Really like the cocktails we had and great craft beer selection too. I like the atmosphere. It was casual but subtly elegant without feeling stuffy. Our food was outstanding. Chips and guacamole are a nice way to start. We also had fried calamari which had a delicious seasoning. My burger was cooked to perfection and the gulf sauce was delicious. Our server was very knowledgeable and attentive. Everyone in our group of 6 got a drink when they needed without much delay. And the food came out in a relatively quick time. It was a busy night as well. They were also very accommodating to us having the sixth member of our group arrive later then the rest. The seated us and five of us ordered some apps and then entrees. Her entree followed ours by only a few minutes when she arrived. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an upscale meal in a casual atmosphere. Great date night location.
The drinks and food are mouth watering. Literally- I love it here at the Ox and Stone! Great happy hour, great atmosphere and the best staff around. Come here for brunch, happy hour or late night- it's always a stellar time!
Unbelievable. We are 4 50+ year old siblings, pre-making jokes about going to an “upscale hipster millennial” place, as described by my millennial son.
Well, those millennials can cook for me ANY time. The food was truly amazing. Everything we had was so fresh and very flavorful. Even my old-lady White Russian was dreamy.
Thank you, millennial generation, for cooking better than anyone in our era could ever cook. And thank you for being so friendly and welcoming to your parents’ generation. All kidding aside, we were not the only oldsters in there and every age should try your food.
Side note: My brother forgot his clip-on man bun, but we kidded about kale, gluten, tequila-on-the-rocks, staring at iPhones and flights of craft beer. We did enjoy the mutton chops on the bartender and our waitress was fabulous.
Annnnnnddddddd....one of us drank Moscow Mules from the cool copper mug, and ALL of us ate the crickets. Does that count?
Thank you again for the beautiful atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious food. A+++++++
Best burger in town. The egg is perfectly cooked and the yolk adds so much flavor. Great dim atmosphere.
My wife and I have been here twice and both times it was nothing short of exceptional. The Food and Cocktails are like nothing in Rochester. Unique Latin Dishes like the Paella we love and creative Latin Cocktails like Mezcal Tequila lit on fire. Lastly the service was superb on both visits. A Lively, Knowledgeable Staff that cares about your overall experience. I’d highly recommend this restaurant if you haven’t discovered how remarkable they are already!
Very good food, nice variety of cocktails. Parking an issue? No problem they have 2 valets. Our server was cheerful and friendly. Food was served hot! Room fills up quickly. I suggest you get there early or make reservations.
Vibes were off the chart good. Service was good. They bring out the food as soon as it is ready. I wished the server had offered to pace the food out to us. We got all of our food sent out to us within 5 minutes. Which was alot. The food was good maybe 6.5/10, I don't think we would order these items again they were all "finger foods" and my hands were covered with oils and sauces. Atrocious spot for a first date!. But if that is what you are looking for it is definitely the right place for you. Drinks were good!
Not a bad place. The drinks were really good, but the food was meh in my opinion but my girlfriend enjoyed it. The food isn’t horrible I just can’t justify the prices for the flavors. They had a dj getting set up tonight (Saturday) so I’m sure it gets quite lively. The atmosphere was really loud so good for a group of friends, not the best for a date night in my opinion. All in all it was a good time just not the flavors for me.
Went yesterday for taco Tuesday did not disappoint. We are regulars here now at least once a month with a visit. Ty has been our server the last two or three times and she is lovely. We tried all the taco specials last night and each one was better than the one before, the margarita special comes to the table and the lime is lit on fire at your table. Tastes great with a show 😊

Food was really good and really tasty. Everything we tried was really good. The atmosphere was excellent. Try it you won't be disappointed.
The atmosphere and vibe was excellent. Appetizers are classy and satisfying. They have crickets but were out so didn’t get to try them. Carrots are really good as were the tacos. Nice friendly staff. They have live music and dancing sometimes. Check social media for when it’s in.
Went here for cocktail revival week. We had an appetizer of calamari that was amazing. They featured 2 different drinks that were made with tequila that were tasty and fun.
We visited from out of town and our host took us to this awesome restaurant. We were 4 adults, we came quite late in the evening, but the service was excellent. We got seated almost right away, had to wait a few minutes, which is reasonable on a busy Saturday night... the waitress was great, very patient and attentive. I wish I remembered her name!
When the food arrived we were pleasantly surprised... the sizzling shrimp - excellent! The wings - amazing! The half chicken- moist and delicious... the guacamole was underseasoned but not too bad... did not try the crickets, not so much into insects.. 😆
Margarita was great, and the ambiance was very nice.
The price was a bit steep, came to about 50$/per person with tip... but we enjoyed every bite!!
Would love to come back again and try other things on the menu!
We ordered for pickup but even while waiting for the food the come out I was impressed. Very good atmosphere and style. The staff was all super friendly. We tried the crickets as an appetizer and we're not disappointed!
Dined for a romantic Valentine's day dinner and the food & atmosphere was amazing. Drinks were great and the mood was just right. We'll be back! ☺️
The cocktails were really good, the paella was a large portion and well made, and the crickets were a pleasant surprise! All in all a good meal!
Amazing drinks!
Food was okay. I got the sizzling shrimp. Way too much oil. Could've seasoned it more felt like i was eating oil. And had the chicken enchiladas. It was okay also
Lovely atmosphere and tasty enough tacos. Plenty of GF options!
A friend and I went specifically for tacos since they have a special on Tuesdays ($4/taco). I ordered the special tacos for that day: chicken, shrimp, and beef. They were tasty, and Latin inspired, but my hunt for the best tacos in Rochester continue!
We also ordered the chips (ask for corn only if GF) and guacamole. I would probably come back just for that!
The staff was friendly and service was pleasant. The building is beautiful and the atmosphere draws you in.
Parking was a bit tricky and I ended up parking on the street.
All in all, a nice experience.
I came here two times for salsa parties. The first time we almost weren't allowed in because we didn't have American driver's licenses. This last time was no problem though.
The wait at the bar was often long however the drinks were strong.
The upstairs seems really chill and the whole place has a great atmosphere and is well-decorated. The bathrooms are very clean too.

This was the first time I've had paella in the US honestly, just based on premise alone. Though it was not the same as anything I had when living in Andalucia, it still has a very authentic feel and the flavors were incredible. The burrata was also amazing and I will be getting it again when I return.
First off, yayyyy cause they have on site parking — not just street parking. But overall, a great experience and good place for a date night. The staff were friendly, the ambience great, the food itself was good, nothing too astonishing (I got the enchiladas). I would come here again.
I'm so glad to see that this restaurant survived the pandemic. It's been 5 years since we found this wonderful restaurant and experienced such delicious food.
The first time we came here we tried the crickets. This is definitely not something I thought I would ever try let alone eat but they were surprisingly good with a nutty flavor. This is also where I had my first foamed egg white topped on a Long Island Iced Tea. This is something I have never heard of or even had but I'm very glad I tried it because it is the absolute best way to have a long Island Iced Tea.
I have been talking it up for the last 5 years every place I have eaten since and I haven't found any other restaurant to make it this way. That's how unique and good it is!
Tonight my wife had a French Martini and I had the Long Island with the egg white foam on top. For the appetizers we had crispy chicken rinds hot honey, chives, and black sesame. The charcuterie is curated selection with flour city bread. Both very delicious. She has 3 cod fish tacos and I had the Thunderbird Sammy which is a crispy chicken thigh, piquillo spread, alabama ranch and pickles on a bun. This is one of the best chicken sandwiches I have ever had. When I cut the sandwich in half it was so soft and easy to cut right through. Price wise I would say this restaurant is around $$ but worth the money. I definitely recommend this restaurant and everything in between.
