*I liked Stonewall Inn.  We arrived with 16 people and it was one of our larger groups for GAS. I had the ham, fries and beans.  The beans were excellent and the ham was very good.  The sauce had a little "bite" and it was good.  It was good to have Dr. Grove with us.

*The beef was the best I have had in a great awhile.  The sauce is good.  The "home fries" were a home style touch that is a welcome change from regular french fries.

*The idea of giving a group of 17, one ticket to split could be the kiss of death for this established restaurant trying to become a BBQ destination.  They have good smoked meat….  It is a good start.  I will be back.

*I like that it's so close, and I will try it again with a smaller crowd to see if the service is faster.

*I loved that this restaurant is located in an old house on Pflumm, complete with a fireplace near the bar.  Our end of the table was chilly as we were in a breezeway near the drink station.  Our group was very large so it took an hour to serve all 17 of us.  I'd have to say that the sliced beef brisket sandwich I had was excellent, full of flavor and I would order it again.  The baked beans had a kind of savory flavor with some grit to the sauce that I did not like.  The BBQ sauce is not on the table and has a kind of kick to it, a little too hot for me.  I tasted some of the burnt ends and thought they were a must order for another time.  I would definitely go back and sit closer to the fireplace!  

*I didn’t care for the beans – much too vinegar, no sweetness or smoke flavour to them.  I give high marks to the server – he did a good job considering that there were 18 of us.

*I think the food is somewhat overpriced, but that is in keeping with Johnson County prices!  This place is not primarily a BBQ joint and there are many other places in the area to get good barbeque.

*I would return to Stonewall for BBQ only if they added flavor to their sauce and baked beans.  The portions were quite good, and the beef had a good smoky taste, but I saw no smoke ring.

*I had the ham platter with two sides.  The ham was excellent.  The beans looked and tasted like they came out of a can.  The home fries were really like hash browns.  It took a long time to get our food.  The waiter was very good and did the best he could to serve as many people as were there.  Not really a BBQ experience I would want to have again.

*Stonewall seems like a wonderful place to go if you've just finished your annual fox hunt and you want to sit for awhile, relax, read the paper, discuss sports or Tory politics with the locals, or just soak in some English cottage ambiance next to a real wood burning hearth.  Whether or not that's someplace you want to go for BBQ, that's for you to decide.  We were a large group and that seemed to tax the sparse lunch time wait staff.  Our order was taken relatively quickly and the food came in a reasonable amount of time.  I had the 1/2 chicken BBQ platter with BBQ beans and "home" fries.  The beans were, hmmmm, different.  I thought I liked them at first, but as I ate more, the spiciness continued to build past the point of enjoyment.  Not overwhelmingly hot, just not a pleasing combo of spices to my palate.  The "home" fries are seasoned potato wedges and they are just, "okay".  I would probably get the French Fries (Freedom Fries if you like) if I could turn back time (If I could do that I wouldn't be here writing this review).  The smoked chicken garners mixed reviews.  The dark meat was moist with a good smoky flavor, but the white meat sections were a tad dry.  I would give the chicken a second chance because I think it has potential.  The sauce was non-descript, but a "proper" amount was applied.  At $11.00 (including tax and tip) I wouldn't make it a regular BBQ lunch stop, but I might go back to Stonewall for a warm fire, a cold pint, bangers and mash and Yorkshire pudding.  Tally Ho.

*The brisket was smoked and had a good flavor, but a little dry.  The sauce was good and had a spicy kick to it.  The coleslaw was just average.  The waiter was slow and not accommodating with a big group.  It took over 1.5 hours to get our food and finish.  That is not acceptable for the lunch hour.  I may go back on a weekend.  They do not do their ribs in-house if you are interested in the ribs.

*The other food on the menu is much better than the BBQ.

*The burnt ends were very tender but lacked a full-flavor BBQ taste.  The fries and slaw could be purchased at any number of restaurants in the area.  The restaurant itself was quaint but drafty.  The service was agonizingly slow.

*Too bad the beans were sooo bad, they brought the overall down.  Everything else was good, but beans are very important to me

*I ordered the beef sandwich, beans, and water ($7.75 plus tax) and we waited about an hour for our food.  The beef was better than I expected as it was actually smoked.  The beans were the worst I've ever eaten because they had zero taste even after I dumped barbecue sauce on them.  I found it outrageous that the Stonewall folks make their own barbecue sauce, but they don't keep any bottles on the table.  What's up with that?  We had to ask for additional sauce which was served in a very small container.  For this, our group had the privilege of paying an 18% gratuity and having our charges placed on one bill.  After we asked the waiter if he could split out the charges, he told us it would take 20 minutes as the computers were slow.  On the way out, the waiter said, "I hope you come back."  My impression of his comment was he knew the service and food were poor.

*Much character and atmosphere at the Stonewall Inn.  Good BBQ to boot.  I had a Brisket Sandwich and it was a good sized Sandwich piled high with smoky tender beef.  The sauce had some zing to it but not sure if it is their own stuff.  The beans were, in a word, horrible.  They tasted like a can of Van Camps baked in an oven.  No taste whatsoever.  They need a lot of help on the beans.  I'd skip the beans and order some of the potatoes.  They looked pretty good.  I didn't order them but those who did will be sure to comment.  Great atmosphere at the Stonewall Inn.  Nice (real & working) fireplace by the Bar.  Neat vibe to the place.  Service was OK given that this may have been our largest group outing in years.  Huge turnout!  I'd go  back again and try some other things on the menu.  Just across the parking lot, you can get some Stonewall Inn Pizza.  They make great Pizza.  I'd be interested in knowing some of the history behind the Stonewall Inn.  The restaurant has been there since 78 but the house the restaurant works out of has been there for much longer.  Fun trip!
