I'm not much of a steak resturant kinda guy either, but I tend to find myself eating in these kinds of places for business reasons (oh the agony). The whole explanation of doneness I never minded. I just figure they're protecting themselves agains dumb people.. I can appreciate that :-p The "Priority Seating" thing I never had to deal with on my trip (went on a Wednesday evening).. It's annoying, but unsuprising.. Some resturants in larger cities have this kind of crap. We're spoiled here I guess. Here's hoping it dosent spread. I'd have a big problem with the women's room being out and the juice drink. As far as not telling the management, I guess I'd like to know how the managemt would have handled these things. I think you should have talked to somone and included their reaction in the review. In general it sounds like they didn't quite have their crap together this run. Any idea how look this location has been open? Regards, _m I’ve been to the Stoney River location in Franklin, TN for dinner, and I was pretty happy with the experience.

I don't think you are Zagats where you are above complaining to the manager about being overcharged (or any other problem) because you plan on writing about it on your blog. If anything, you could also write about the way they did or did not resolve your problem.

Resturants do seem to be specific to the individual. Personally, I really like Stoney River. I have been there several times, and have never been disappointed with the food or the service. Their Coffee-Cured Filet is the best in town. I've ordered at Ruth Crists and Hyde Park where their staff have also defined my doneness request. I found it not to be a problem. I also found their request to examin the doneness to be helpful. At other resturants, when the steak is not cooked properly, my waitperson never seems to be around. By the time that I get my steak repaired, the other persons at my table are all but done. That never would happen the way that Stoney River does it. The only problem at Stoney River is that it is noisy. Some sound proofing or deadening application would be helpful. Finally, if you go to Stoney River on the weekend, be prepared for a 45 to 60 minute wait. Considering how many less expensive resturants that there are in/around Columbus, they must be doing something right. Finally, if the customer is not satisfied with the the food or the pricing and fails to say anything to the resturant management, then just shut up. You're like the individual that could but never votes, but always has something negative to say about how the winner conducts business. I really like this place. AND, NO I do not work there, own it's stock, get free food or have any conflicts of interest. Just happened by this article. Resturants do seem to be specific to the individual.
