Stone Bowl Grill

I remember this place used to be great. It's gone downhill for years. The owner is very nice and sweet but the quality of the food needs to change. I usually love Banchan at Korean restaurants, which are small side dishes however the ones served here were the worst I've ever had. They had a funky taste and no, it's not the fermentation. The fish cake was tough as if it's uncooked. The other dishes were tasteless, I brought home most of it so I can 'modify' it.

Dinner for six was a festival of flavor and fun for me and my family last week. We ordered 5 entrees and were stuffed when we left. All of the grilled proteins were delicious, and the process of making them at the table was great fun for the teens at the table. The discussion of the food and the grilling made the meal an entertainment in itself; no need to address screen time here!Maybe best of all was our saucy and spicy server who engaged with us with wit and intelligent humor. Still, I don't want to forget that the pickle, fish cake, and eggplant were delicious, too.We'll be back!

This place is great. We got a ridiculous amount of food but it all disappeared from the table. To start, they don't skimp on the banchan (although the kimchi was extra). We got the #9 and the #12 from the Korean barbecue menu. The #12 Yangnyeom Kalbi was the dish of the night (short rib marinated in pear sauce). It was flavorful and sweet. We also had the curry fries (just okay) and Dukboki (spicy rice cake and fish sauce). The dukboki was had just the right amount of heat. The server was kind and helpful. He came by from time to time and cooked the meat for us. My favorite Korean spot in Milwaukee :)

Would honestly give this place 4 stars if it wasn't for the fact that they already automatically added a gratuity to our meal... it was just 2 ppl, I would understand if we were a group. The guy didn't even talk to us, he literally came and dropped off the food... The food was good, but definitely too pricey even though we went during lunch time.. In my opinion, it's so-so. If you don't mind spending that kind of money then go for it.

We visited for the first time for a quick date night on a week night and really enjoyed our visit. We did the bulgogi Korean barbecue and it was super flavorful and filling, especially after some appetizers which were also delicious. Now we definitely know where to get our Korean barbecue fix in Milwaukee!

Two thumbs up for Stone bowl bibimbop! Side dishes were excellent! Service was great!

This was my first time, trying Korean food, and it did not disappoint. I loved the flavor of the dishes & the quality of the food! To start we had the Spicy Sweet Dumplings (which I highly recommend) & then split the Beef Bibimbap. It was a good amount of food for 2 people & we left satisfied. Servers were nice, and the service was also quick! Will definitely be back again soon.

With my very first paycheck, I wanted to take my family out to dinner. The plan was to go to a new place every month, and experience food from cultures we haven't eaten before. Our third place we tried was stone bowl, and we've stopped looking for others. Some of the very best food I've ever eaten, their entire menu is fantastic. Service is amazing as well. Been eating here now for the past 8 years.

Good food, good service. I love the sides. Make sure you eat your kimchi! I think eating in is a better experience than take-out but that's cause I like all the sides that come with the meal. The decor has aged a bit over the years but quality of the food was still spot on.

This marks my inaugural online review, prompted by a disappointing experience at Stone Bowl restaurant. Despite our efforts to visit on a Friday evening around 8:00 pm, navigating through the busy street for parking, we were met with unwelcoming service. The server initially hesitated to seat us until our entire party was present, which we understood. However, upon our arrival, we were informed by the server that the owner had suddenly decided to close early, despite the advertised closing time of 9:30 pm on Fridays. This abrupt closure left us questioning whether the restaurant's hours were misleading or if there were other factors at play. Regardless, the implication was unsettling, particularly as an African American family. Such treatment ensures I will not be returning, as our patronage holds equal value, regardless of race.If I could leave a 0 I would.
