Sandstone Grillhouse - Niagara Falls

Had a very nice meal and company. Tables are a little close together. 3.5 out of 5. Went there for a brunch. Going back would be fine but might also look for other places too

I recently visited this restaurant and was impressed by its cozy atmosphere. It is an ideal spot for a peaceful dinner or a small gathering with friends. The service was excellent, and our server was friendly. I ordered the Chicken Cordon Bleu while my partner had the Braised Lamb Shank. The Cordon Bleu was juicy and tender, not at all dry or salty, which was a pleasant surprise. It definitely exceeded my expectations and I give it two thumbs up! My partner thoroughly enjoyed the tender and moist shank, which seemed to have been marinated and cooked slowly. Overall, this restaurant is a must-visit for delicious food.

My husband and I went here for the first time, to celebrate my birthday. We were quite excited to try a different place. The ambiance was nice. It was very quiet the entire time, only us and 2 other tables. Our server (Sterling I think her name was) was ok. Told her it was our first time there, but never mentioned my birthday, (although I had added that in my reservation notes). No mention was ever made of my birthday, which was disappointing. We ordered the garlic shrimp to start. Very easy to cook….yet they came undercooked!!! I thought it was just mine, but my husband said his was as well and as we cut into the others they still had a slight grey colour! YIKES! It took the waitress a bit to come ask us how they were as she was chatting with other employees in bar area. We told her and she was shocked, saying that’s the only time that has ever happened. She quickly took them away and said they will be taken off the bill and new ones made. We then heard her telling a man near the bar that the shrimp weren’t cooked. I’m assuming he was a manager, as he then walked into the kitchen. We expected him to come over to our table and apologize, as most every restaurant we frequent does, but he went back to bar area. When the server brought the new shrimp they were VERY over cooked. Better over than under, but cooked to perfection would have been better! I mean, I myself, can cook shrimp to perfection…it’s not difficult! Also, you’d think the server would come right over to make sure these ones were cooked better, but it took her u til we were almost done to come and ask!? Then the seafood fettuccine came and was ok, although quite greasy. We didn’t get desert, as we were concerned that it would also be a letdown. We went back to our hotel and got desert there. After spending over $158 with tip, we agreed that we will never return. Niagara Falls has so many nice restaurants to try. When we mentioned the disappointment in our food to our Uber driver, he was surprised, saying he’s heard it’s really good. We will give the chef the benefit of the doubt and maybe they just had an off night? Regardless, we won’t return. We tried another new place the next night and LOVED it.

After checking all the online reviews we to have a family dinner and I must say we were not disappointed at all. From the time we walked in to the time we ate and left everything was great..good experience very courteous, very knowledgable stuff.We had crispy calamari, ceased salad as starters followed by chicken Parmesan, Mediterranean goat cheese chicken, tortellini Rose. Cooked to perfection..

What a wonderful meal we had at Sandstone. To start us off the calamari and shrimp, were enjoyable as well as our salads. The salmon was cooked to perfection as was the steak. To end our evening we ordered cheesecake and took it with us. We weren’t disappointed. Sterling took wonderful care of us. If you have an opportunity to have a distinguished gentleman come over to check on your meal, he’s the owner who rolls up his sleeves to help out. Thanks again.
