The oysters were phenomenal. The martinis are well made. The only drawback is the live music. I love live music, but the talent was lacking the night we went. All else was amazing.

Music was way too loud for me. Could have been toned down a little. read more Music was way too loud for me. Could have been toned down a little.

The spicy tuna sushi was good. The soy sauce is in a low sodium bottle, but there’s no way it’s low sodium soy sauce and the quality is terrible. The manager refused to honor the prices on the happy hour menu that was on our table that also matched the prices on GrilleStone’s website. Shameful!! If this is how they deceive customers, they’ll probably close the Old Bridge location like they did in Scotch Plains. We ordered the food based on the prices on the menu. I checked the website and they were the same after we received the bill and I disputed it. My friends and coworkers won’t be going to karaoke or music bingo ever again. Check out the prices on OpenTable’s menu. They’re also wrong and even lower!! What’s wrong with you people?? Those are pre-Covid prices with the wrong happy hours listed (3-7 pm). Seriously? The area near the kitchen and rest rooms STUNK like a sewer. The ladies’ room’s toilets were flushing non-stop. The mens’ room toilet had no water and did not flush plus there was no soap! The parking lot was FULL of cars with very few people in the restaurant.. wtf?

Our waitress, Dawn, was very attentive and made sure our dinner was fantastic. She even surprised us with a beautiful bouquet of red roses for my mom at the end of the meal. I will definitely be returning soon.

I had made a reservation for Mother's Day, and when we checked out the menu and reviews beforehand, it seemed like a good choice. However, upon arriving, we discovered that they only offered a fixed menu at a high price point. It would have been helpful to know this information in advance.
