Stoneburner - Seattle

Love the establishmentIf you can make their happy hour go for itThe best of the best.

Was headed to the Ballard's Sunday market and wanted to drop into a restaurant for brunch.

Do you know how a pork chop tastes like if you sprinkled with a whole tub of salt on top of it? I do! My boyfriend ordered the grilled pork chop =

So we went here for Father's Day 2024 and I'm so glad we did! It's been a minute since we've been here and the food, service and ambiance were all fantastic! Let's get to it Wild King Salmon: this was probably my least favorite dish as the fish was overcooked, a shame as the flavors were really good and you could tell the parts that were not over cooked promised a delicious dish if done right, the sauces and asparagus complemented it beautifully Charred Broccoli: hands down the best veggie dish I have tasted in a long while, whoa it packs a punch! I loved it so much I stole a piece off my kiddos plate Spot Prawn Aguachile: I had no idea what I was getting myself into here looool but I'm so glad I tried it, everything about it was bright and fresh BUT I probably would have preferred a cooked shrimp dish (sigh I know I'm terrible) Morels Pizza l: SO SO TASTY I love mushrooms, I love morels and I loved this pizza, the confit garlic and potato just added another layer YUM! Dry Aged Toro Steak: now this bad boy was not playing around, it sat on a bed of thinly sliced potato's and oh that salsa verde, but the steak was king here beautifully cooked and seasoned well it was a delicious plate Basque Cheesecake: oh yes I planned for this guy and boy was I glad we indulged a little more, it was heaven! And they even put the fruit compote on the side as I'm not one for cooked fruit. A great finish to the meal, make room for it!!

This place is a true Ballard gem. Between the old school meet modern ambience, the excellent staff, and delicious food, this place is a must go to for the neighborhood. As I often eat alone, I never feel awkward coming into the bar..,the staff makes you feel comfortable and are quite attentive. The food is always delicious. Their steak is my favorite...albeit a touch on the salty side, it's always charred to perfection. The bread is fantastic as well. Anything you order here; you can't go wrong. Highly recommended stopping in.
