Stone Grill 95

Stone Grill"s website promises to bring "an archaic style of cooking to the new millennium," by which it means, "using lava rock to sizzle meat at the table," leading to "an experience, not just a meal." Sounds great, but in fact you have to call in advance to reserve the rock, because only a limited number of patrons may dine this way at once. One other small caveat: The restaurant phone doesn"t always work. Hoo boy, what a mess. Better news is that Stone Grill provides a bright, comfy room in which to sip wine and enjoy a moderately priced dinner of various meats cooked, alas, on a regular old grill.
