Bluestone Grill

I drive from the cities back to Monti just for Bluestones amazing food!! The best chicken bowl around. Adding the parm sauce to it is a game changer with the chipotle sour cream. Chipotle could never ‍

It's just like a chipotle, but not as commercialized. The menu is small, but the staff helps you make choices and is very friendly.

I ordered a bowl with chicken. And then so many additional possibilities to add Compared to Chipotle I love that they use a different rice and lettuce. They seem to use less seasoning than Chipotle which works well because they did an amazing job curating higher quality ingredients that make the food taste lighter and fresher than Chipotle. My food was delicious and everything reasonably priced. I just wish they would open a Bluestone closer to me in Elk River.

This is my go to lunch spot in Monticello. It is a unique restaurant in that they have both burritos/bowls and chicken Parmesan and fries. This trip I had a steak bowl with fajita veggies. It was very good. The meat choices aren't as spicy as the chain restaurants so if you are looking for heat, make sure to get the hot salsa and seasoned sour cream.The restaurant is recently renovated with a large dining area. There is also a patio area that typical is open during the summer.

Stopped in for the second time last night. It was 8:30 and they close at 9:00 but the workers definitely seemed annoyed that we were coming in. One person helped make our bowls and then helped the other customer too before ringing us out while another employee was just standing there... very odd. The bowls were good but lacking flavor, hate to say but chipotle is better. Like to support the local guys but not sure if I'll be back.

My husband and I have been going to Bluestone Grill since it opened. Service and food quality used to be top notch. Sadly, that is no longer the case. My husband and I left the restaurant minutes ago, and I can say with certainty that we will not go back. We've had worse and worse experiences. Each time we went back we thought it would be better the next time. It hasn't gotten any better, and today's service was the straw that broke the camel's back. We're done. Chipotle is opening nearby, and we'll take our business there.

Great food, great service, fast and relatively affordable. It's basically chipotle, but with good portion sizes.

First visit for lunch today, raced through the line with workers trying to break speed records. Ordered chicken burrito, flour tortilla was torn, replaced in the middle of the race to build it. Hurried through payment process and got to the table, nice dining room! Sat down to eat, burrito and exploded apart in my hands and made a mess... Ordered chips and salsa too! Not terribly impressed with experience, much prefer Brito's in Monticello just to the north. Might try Bluestone again off peak to see if things are better.

When venturing to help a friend in the boonies of Monticello and craving Chipotle all week... Bluestone Grill popped up on my Google Maps search! I figured, it's worth a try as I was starving. Their setup is similar to Chipotle and the restaurant was packed at 2pm on a Monday. I ordered a bowl with half shrimp (yassssssss!) and half chicken so I could try a variety. They were both fresh and tasty! They also had yummy brown rice and it was cooked perfect. Something else different... a chipotle sour cream! This added a great smokey flavor to my bowl. I grabbed it to go and really enjoyed it! Thanks for quality food and the shrimp option! Your staff were very friendly and helpful as well! If I'm in the Monticello area again, I will stop back.

We catered for a group of 20 and everybody loved it. They provided everything we needed down to serving spoons, napkins and plates. I highly recommend ordering from Bluestone Grill for your next catered meal!
