Stones Throw

We love Stone's Throw! The food and the service keeps getting better and better. The new menu is awesome! We especially love the calamari and burrata cheese appetizer.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Stone Throw Restaurant, and overall, it was a very enjoyable experience. The ambiance of the restaurant was warm and welcoming, with an upscale yet relaxed vibe that made it easy to settle in and focus on the food and company. From the moment we walked in, the service stood out. Our server was attentive without being overbearing and knowledgeable about the menu, offering helpful recommendations that enhanced our dining experience. We started with the calamari, which was nicely cooked crispy on the outside while remaining tender inside. However, it was noticeably salty, which unfortunately overpowered some of the more delicate flavors of the dish. It was still enjoyable, but I would have preferred a lighter hand with the seasoning. The specialty cocktail I ordered was a standout. It had a great balance of subtle flavors that didn’t overpower each other, making it extremely refreshing and a great complement to the meal. It’s the kind of drink you can sip slowly and actually taste the layers, which I appreciated. The highlight of the evening was definitely the beef short rib entrée. The meat was incredibly tender and flavorful. What really elevated the dish were the thoughtful accompaniments; the carrots had a pickled tartness that provided a nice contrast to the savory richness of the short rib and the creamy potato base. Each component added a distinct flavor, and together they created a well rounded and satisfying plate. Overall, I’d recommend Stone Throw to anyone looking for a solid dining experience with good service, well-crafted cocktails, and thoughtfully prepared dishes. I’ll definitely be back, hopefully with a little less salt on the calamari next time.

I really like the happy hour. In a significantly redid their menu with a lot of quality varieties. I had the duck wings. Good great and good sauce. The owner and manager for their to touch tables and talk to gas. I sat at the bar and had great service

Had a great meal with friends. Drinks, food, and service were amazing! Steaks were cooked perfectly and the lobster tail was outstanding. Server Josh was on top on getting drinks and made sure we were happy with everything. Highly recommended!

Me and my family come here every year we come down to visit Cape Coral. Our server was Brian and he was so wonderful. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was great!! We will definitely be coming back and asking for Brian!!!

First time and definitely not last time dining here. Quick and friendly greeting. Chose to eat outside but inside was inviting as well. We had the Furious George and Dream Weaver, both unique and very satisfying. If you prefer your drink neat there a huge list of quality bourbons. Highly recommend the Mussels Frites, Firecracker Shrimp, Beef Short Rib and Sea Scallops. If you are in search of a well curated food and drink menu, this is the place. Go, you will not be disappointed.

Special shout out to our server Brandon. The food and atmosphere were fantastic. The calamari was the best I ever had and the short ribs were perfection. Thanks you for an incredible culinary experience!

We recently had a death in the family. I was looking for a restaurant that I could take my family and guests after the funeral services on a Sunday. I found it difficult to find a place that could accommodate my needs. My son was a busboy at Two Meatballs next door so we approached them but it wasn’t available but they suggested we talk to Dave the GM at Stones Throw. We sat down immediately and discussed my needs. I asked do you think you can handle this for me? The response was your son works for us, you are family. We will get it done for you. They certainly did. The food was absolutely perfect. Beef tenderloin cooked to perfection, chicken, green beans and pasta. All took second to the extraordinary service. The service staff was absolutely on fire. We wanted for nothing. I can’t thank Dave and the staff enough for making what was a very stressful day go off without a hitch.

A Fresh Taste of Summer at Stones Throw Cape Coral We've dined at Stones Throw more times than we can count--but last night? That was something special. As regulars, we were already fans of the welcoming vibe, the refined-yet-relaxed atmosphere, and the top-tier service. But the new menu? Absolutely blew us away. Thoughtful, seasonal, and seriously delicious. We started with the Summer Salad, and it was love at first bite. Grilled peaches and roasted beets played beautifully off the red onion and creamy herbed chèvre, all brought together with a light kiss of white balsamic. Every forkful was a celebration of flavor and texture--bright, earthy, crunchy, sweet. It tasted like sunshine on a plate. Then came the showstopper: the Elk Rack. Perfectly frenched and cooked to a tender, juicy perfection, served with rustic smashed potatoes and chili garlic green beans that had just the right kick. And that berry sage gastrique? A little sweet, a little savory, a whole lot of wow. Elegant without being pretentious. Of course, we have to shout out Brandon, who always makes our night feel extra special. His service is warm, intuitive, and spot-on--he knows how to make you feel like a VIP without ever being over the top. Whether it's your first visit or your fiftieth, Stones Throw continues to impress with its thoughtful cuisine, stellar team, and relaxed, modern vibe. And with this new menu? We're already planning our next visit.

There's not enough buzz about this place! Great location, great atmosphere, great decor, the drinks are always on point, and their menu is incredible! We normally sit at the bar and get great service from the bartenders, but last night we sat at a table in Jefferson was knowledgeable, friendly, accommodating and never once left us waiting! 10/10 every single time! 12/10 on the night they have live music

Thea greeted us, seated us quickly, and let us know that it was "Date Night", with a special menu. Basically $100 for a very nice wine (Daou, a Paso Robles Cabernet), an appetizer each (Tomato, Mozzarella Burrata, and Pesto on bruschetta), a shared LARGE 20 oz. Prime Rib with Boursin Mashed Potatoes and Asparagus, and a shared oBrownie ala mode with Caramel for dessert. It was GOOD, all of it. The starter was perfect, the Asparagus was al dente (NOT soggy), the Boursin Potatoes were a tad over-salted, but perfectly complemented the very LARGE Prime Rib with both au jus and creamy horseradish sauce. The dessert was beautifully presented and, frankly, DECADENT. Brandon was an excellent server and Dave, the manager stopped by once to welcome us, and a second time to ensure everything was to our liking... Thank you! WE'LL BE BACK!!

The food is amazing and so is the ambience. The service they provide is excellent. I would definitely recommend for a night out.

Loved loved loved. GREAT service. GREAT food. We did happy hour and ordered four plates figuring they would be like 1-2 pieces on it. The Plates were HUGE. I got the tuna which was fantastic. My fiancé got the ribs and Brussel sprouts and couldn't finish either. Drinks were very good. My one ask would be better red wine. Their high end by the glass was Justin. I would love a really good Cab in the mix.

First time dining. For entree went with the 8oz Wagyu Sirloin and of course medium rare. Comes with Yuca fries and Chef veggies, tonight Broccolini....very tasty. My steak was seasoned nice, cooked exactly as I ordered. Dined sitting at bar, server Rebecca was excellent. The inside has a nice ambiance, a lot of background noise but can deal with.

We went here for our 39th anniversary. Everything was perfect. Brandan was our server and I highly recommend him. He was very attentive , took care of all our needs, made great menu recommendations and was just awesome. The chef prepared the most sensuous dining experience. We will definitely continue to go back. Highly recommend.

Amazing service, drinks, food, and ambiance!!! The new menu has a lot of variety and there are a lot of GF options. It's our favorite place in Cape Coral.

Ate there on 6/22. We sat at the bar. There was an old guy at the bar drinking pink wine who was wasted. He shouldn't have been served. He was swearing SO LOUDLY. We cashed out and told the bartender why. He kept saying he was a manager at a restaurant in town. God help that place.

Lovely outdoor seating for a party of six. Our server was up to the task! Don't think I didn't see him RUNNING to keep up! He was bustin' a move to make several parties happy at once. And we were. It was great food. The onion soup was too salty to eat. But the salmon was cooked to perfection. The salad was very tasty. Others had similar choices and we all enjoyed our meals. No dessert. A few had drinks and they were good.

2/2024 We loved this place! Food - All of it was delicious! Service - Really nice, super friendly and not bothered. Ambiance - We went in on a Monday night & you would have thought it was Friday night.. it was crowded, but in a good way. The vibe was great!

Made our favorites list in one visit and we've been there twice now in the last ten days. Our first visit was for a date night. Reservations are recommended and we arrived for ours at 6:30 on a Friday evening in May. The vibe is upscale contemporary and offers inside and outside seating. The interior has half booths, stand alone tables and a long bar. It's clearly become a place for celebrations and there were two different parties near our table. Even with some larger parties seated, the volume and atmosphere were inviting and comfortable. Noise volume wasn't an issue and I didn't even consider it at the time because we were able to converse easily without giving it a thought. Service was excellent. Brian explained the menus and made first-rate suggestions. He was there to offer more drinks and check in at the right times and was efficient and personable. We tried two different drinks: Endless Summer and This One's For Olive. I enjoyed both and would be happy drinking either. However, This One's For Olive, came out a bit as the top favorite. Maybe it's the handmade blueberry infused vodka they use? Not sure, but this drink is both pretty and delicious. They present it unmixed and it makes a striking photo. After a couple pictures and a twirl or two of the straw, it's simply Y-U-M! Bread is complimentary for the table and comes out with REAL butter. Both made a favorable impression. All the appetizers looked great. We finally settled on two and knew in advance we were over-ordering. The Goat Cheese Pillows were just as amazing as I imagined. Crispy crunchy outside and delicious warm goat cheese inside. A couple of these make a big impact, so this is definitely something I would want to share with others as an appetizer. The Pork Potstickers were one of best versions we've ever been served. Perfectly finished with the ultimate inside and outside texture and tasty pork filling. The accompanying dipping sauce also hit all the right notes. I ordered the House Salad. It was delicious but a bit overwhelming when it appeared. It could easily be a meal by itself. It comes with artisan greens, heirloom tomato, cucumber, red onion, hard-boiled egg, chickpea, avocado and is dressed with a shallot vinaigrette. I ate the portion I could but surrendered the rest, knowing I wanted to enjoy my entrée. Mr. T had the Soup Du Jour, which that day was Roasted Red Pepper & Crab. He really enjoyed it and let me try some. It was delicious and smooth. I could taste individual flavors and they were a terrific combination. I made a mental note to order this if I see it offered again. The daily specials provided Mr. T's entrée: a 12 oz. NY Strip he ordered medium. It came out perfect and was nicely seasoned. The Pan Seared Sea Scallops were my choice and I enjoyed every bite. Everything brought to us had us talking about coming back, so it wasn't a big surprise to find ourselves return the next weekend, this time on Saturday afternoon at 3:30. We'd been out running errands and decided to take a chance and walk in without a reservation. Happily, it worked out and we enjoyed their 3:00 to 6:00 PM Happy Hour. Initially, we intended to simply sample the handhelds. However, I couldn't resist another "This One's For Olive" and Mr. T convinced me to share some more Pork Potstickers. I thought we were over-ordering again, for sure. We were delighted to learn the Happy Hour Appetizers are slightly smaller portions. (They're also a really great price.) General Tso's Chicken Sandwich came with Crispy Fried Chicken Cutlets, Napa Slaw, General Tso's Sauce on a Brioche Bun with a side of Samurai Fries. Mr. T said it tasted really good but there was too much chicken, even for him. It has two cutlets but the two he got were really thick. He took an entire one off the sandwich. The only slight issue with this sandwich was the amount of sauce; it was a lot and made eating it messy and the bun got a bit soggy too. Great taste but he said he might ask for sauce on the side if he ordered it again. The Steak Sandwich had skirt steak, fontina cheese, and typically comes with green goddess dressing on the arugula on a toasted French roll and comes with a side of Steak Fries. I ordered it medium and asked them to skip the dressing and go light on the arugula. This sandwich was perfection. Flavorful steak and melty cheese on a lightly toasted roll with great chew. I shared a few bites with Mr. T and he wants this next time. The food and drinks were top tier amazing. I'm not a big drinker but I'd seriously go back for drinks. I'd also go back for appetizers, entrees and handhelds. We are looking forward to many more delicious meals. Go there. Don't be like me. They are celebrating their first-year anniversary on Friday, May 31st, and we didn't get there for the first time until about ten days ago. Highly Recommended

Fresh, creative food and drink offered in a upbeat environment Our server, Brittany was newer to the restaurant but knew the menu well and was helpful with making selections She provided prompt and pleasant service The service staff works as a team and the manager is very present. Although we are relatively new to the area this restaurant is already a favorite

Pork Chop Perfection at Good Food Verdict: If you're a fan of pork, Stones Throw serves one of the best chops in town. Everything was delicious!

First a note to manager Dave, Brian is the best waiter we've ever had, pay him more (lol). Seriously, my wife and I dined here for our 35th anniversary. Service was exceptional. One of the best dirty martinis I've ever had. The brussell sprouts were excellent as an appetizer. My wife had the 8oz filet and I had the beef bourguinon. Steak was perfectly cooked and melted in your mouth, the bourguinon was rich and flavorful. We've lived here for over 25 yearsand had several restaurants as favorites (Misto, Arianis, Marker 92, Prime 239) Stones Throw has leapt to the top of our list. Try it once and you'll be back again and again.

This is the second time we have rented from cape coral boat rental in the last few years, owners are great and boats are well equipped with everything you would need for a fun day on the water. Also reasonably priced rentals for the area!

Outstanding food, service and a great atmosphere. Never had a bad experience at Stones Throw.

my father-in-law came to visit this weekend and we had to take him to @stonesthrowcc for an awesome steak dinner. Stones Throw is nestled in downtown Cape Coral and has upscale vibes! We had high hopes it would live up to the first experience we had from a few weeks back and they DELIVERED. the quality of the steaks here is outstanding, we had a fantastic meal. I chose the Waygu Filet Mignon, absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly (medium rare), served with Parmesan risotto and fresh veggies + béarnaise sauce We shared the crab cakes as an appetizer (fluffy & flavorful) and scallops - again, exquisitely cooked and so delicous. our server, Brian, was awesome. Knowledgeable, attentive, funny, and paced the meal well. Big shout out for good service! go try Stone's Throw in Cape Coral!

Based on the reviews, we decided to give Stones Throw a try for our team dinner. We visited on a mid-week night and the first thing we noted is that the location is a bit hard to find. The front windows are tinted and there's no signage other than the restaurant's logo. Once inside, we found ourselves in a spacious dining room and bar area that have a very upscale yet low key vibe. We were promptly seated and served drinks while selecting our dinner entrees. Looking through the menu, it focuses on steakhouse selections with some very nice alternatives to beef such as chicken, pork chops, and seafood. Our selections were all very good without any noticeable lapses in cooking or service. Everything came out hot and fresh. I think this is where Stones Throw stands out: each item, whether soup, salad, or steak, is artfully presented and carefully crafted. Everything on the plate belongs in each dish and nothing else. The sous-vide chicken and the seared scallops were the team favorites, and the Wagyu burger was perfectly cooked to highlight the rich fat flavors. Table service was competent. This is a good choice for a business meal or a casual date night. Recommended.

Excellent food & service!!! Been here 5-6 times in the last few months. Tried many different entrees, all delicious. Service is always good, but the best server was Matt. This place never disappoints.

Christmas eve dinner , just my wife and I. Food was very tasty, service was impeccable. Prices are competitive.

We had a great dinner with friends here while visiting Cape Coral. The service was excellent as was the food and drink. If you're an Old Fashioned fan, grab one (or three) here. You won't be disappointed. Great stop. We'll be back.

Did we hit a bad day? Is there a change in chefs? The experience of the food did not match the reviews....Place is trendy, new and fresh. Prices did not match taste and "cuisine" level. Popcorn shrimp were just ok and a bit bready. Wife's wine came but my drink took almost another 10 minutes. Fish was borderline dry, sides were good. "Asian" ribs were overcooked and the sauce was so overpowering....seasoned fries were ok. Waitress was friendly and nice but think she realized we were not really happy, as we lost her until drink showed up late. Never really asked "how is your food" either....If it had been a normal day, would have spoken up but since celebrating something did not want to spoil mood further. Not sure why desserts from next door not available!? Would not go back.

The vibe is casual and upscale, with a nice menu and a bar with great cocktail options and plenty of beer choices. Normally open only for dinner, I was there for lunch when they opened especially for an art festival that was taking place in front of the restaurant. The menu was limited for this special occasion. I sat at the bar and ordered a local beer and a chicken birria quesadilla. The quesadilla was good, but nothing extraordinary. I look forward to returning during regular evening hours for a cocktail and a steak, which seem to be the specialty, in this great space right on Cape Coral Parkway.

This place is definitely one to check out in downtown CC - it's a modern mid/fine style American restaurant with excellent food and has a large patio for those who prefer to enjoy the weather. It's a great option for date night or a celebration with friends, the ambience is definitely gearing more towards the adult/contemporary crowd. I've gone there for business dinners as well as date night and always had a good experience.

What a pleasant surprise! It's so rare in SWFL to find truly GOOD FOOD. We are at the bar and had great service by Todd! The Wedge salad and French Onion soup were excellent. Cocktail selection was excellent as was the General Tso's chicken sandwich and spicy fries . The chef clearly gets food! I will definitely be back

Went for date night last night. Payton recommended good dinner options. She provided great service Beef rib & chicken breasts with vegetables was great! However will be back to try the créeme brûlée they were fresh out

Service, the bartender was very educated on their cocktails and his craft. I being a bartender long ago and very well versed in gin I was impressed with his recommendation of the Stone Throw 75 very well balanced . The Brussels sprout were much better than expected the sweetness and acidity were very well balanced with some unexpected twists. The short rib was good but had just a touch of burnt but the sugars in the marinade which would make that difficult to avoid. The parmigiana risotto was very nice. The cream brûlée was a great finish. The waiter "The Todd" was fantastic affable and very attentive. The wine list while limited is very solid and will meet most palates demands!

The service and drinks were great! I ordered the salmon and it tasted like a pound of iodized salt! The vibe was cute but they need to step up their game with quality food

Newer location In downtown cape coral . Come here without a rush . It's not that busy and we have waited a while for food . If you're hungry , then stop and get a snack before . lol just kidding . But, no really at least 35-40 mins waiting

Excellent Ambiance, Delicious Food, Great Service. Our server Brian was Extremely good. Very Attentive.

Over rated just ok over priced for what you get service was very slow and waiter was annoying

I was very excited to try this new restaurant... we went there at happy hour and were the only people in the restaurant. I asked if we could sit at a high top near the bar. I was told sitting at the bar was the only way we could get happy hour deals. THERE WAS NO ONE IN THE PLACE!!!!! I'm a small business owner and I would never have said no to anyone especially new customers... Which by the way I did mention it was our FIRST TIME IN THEIR RESTAURANT!!! Never Again! Our bartender was wonderful.

We absolutely loved this place. Will definitely be going back. The food was amazing, the service was great. We love the live music and the ambience.

Delicious food, attentive service, upscale decor. Always an enjoyable experience. Comfotable indoors or outside. We'll keep coming back.. .

Did the happy hour which was good for the drinks but had the ribs, but were over cooked & dry. Not worth the happy hour price. French onion soup was decent as were the pot stickers. Salmon dinner was great .

The short ribs were incredible! Get them with the potatoes. So tender and flavourful. Nice vibe too!

Food was incredible and came out of the kitchen very quickly. We ordered multiple appetizers and they were all quite good. One member of our group thought the jerk chicken was underseasoned and they replaced the entree with a different entree of their choice for free. Incredible customer service and everyone else loved their meals.

I loved this new restaurant last winter. Came back to the Cape this year and it was the first restaurant we went to for their scallops--we've been told that they're the best in Florida and, last year, I would agree. Boy was I disappointed. See pictures below. I showed our waiter the picture from last year. He said, " Yes, I remember them looking like that. Come back Sunday and there will be a new chef." I was never offered a different entree, compensation in price (the price had increased from last year but not my main issue), or a free dessert. I will not be going back to this restaurant and will tell my snow bird friends about this experience.

We had reservations and after we were seated we sat for a good 15 mins with several servers and management walking by us and finally we had to request to be waited on to even get drinks. The food was extremely overpriced and not prepared well at all! The grouper was overcooked and dry the steaks were not aged or seasoned and not cooked by a trained chef!! The filet mignon was absolutely terrible!!! If I am paying the prices they are charging I expect an outstanding meal, which this was far from. Buyer Beware!!

We came to Stones Throw for the first time. The food is excellent! I had a Wago burger that was out of the world. The bartender Jeremy was so nice and fun to talk to. Also, he made a mean dirty Martini. We will definitely be back.

There's nothing bad to say about Stone's Throw. The food, service and spirits were enjoyable. The steak was cooked to perfection!! The Spicy Señorita was the perfect combo of spicy, tangy and sweet. The restaurant has that date night vibe but it seems like a great place for large groups. Definitely worth checking out!

Amy our waitress was awesome! The food was amazing & delicious! David . Very professional & knows how a restaurant is ran efficiently.. Thx Tony Linton Lebanon Indiana .

This place does not disappoint in service, ambiance. We stopped in with our nephew and his girlfriend and just had cocktails. My husband fell in love with the cocktails. The service at the bar was outstanding. We did not eat as we had gone somewhere else for dinner. But would definitely go back and try the food. The nachos looked delicious

Fantastic new place in Cape Coral for mingling at the bar, dining in or on their gorgeous patio. We had an amazing dinner tonight and really enjoyed the great service and food. There was a gentleman playing sax softly in the background which really added to the ambience. Wagyu steak, wagyu burger, scallops, crab cakes, lobster, grouper, raw oysters - their menu has so much to offer even sous vide chicken or pork chops. Their full bar is large, beautiful and the decor is really nice. We can't wait to go back to try more of their menu.

Consistent service. Excellent food. Not a rushed atmosphere. Presentation superb. Even had speciality nights for men and women, and changed weekly.

So this place just opened couple weeks ago. We sat at the bar or we would have needed to wait or have a reservation. The service was good and the food was even better. We had the mussels and they were excellent usually I like the white wine sauce not marinara but these were good. Crab cakes were excellent portion for the price and filled with a lot of meat not filler which is a great sign of the quality of the food. For dinner my wife had the scallops and they were large and cooked perfect. I had the New York strip and it was an excellent cut. It was cooked perfect and one of the best steaks I have had since moving to Florida a couple of months back. I wasn't a fan of the steak sauce but the steak was so perfect it didn't need sauce. We finished up with the wasabi crème brûlée which oddly worked will and complemented the flavor without overpowering it. The owner Wayne was there by the edge of the bar and we had a present conversation with him. He owns several other restaurants and you could tell takes pride in the establishment and the food he puts out.

Amazing brussel sprouts! Our server Amy was great! Nice atmosphere , love music was nice. Highly recommended it!

Cocktails have been great. Love their spins on old fashioneds. The food has all tasted great but been disappointed with selections. Both time we have been, they have been out of the dessert or beer we choose but not marked off on menu. We viewed the menu set prior to going based on what they advertised online for burgers and brews and the options we chose weren't marked out on the menu when we got there either. Long drive for us to not get what we want. Service and ambiance are great. I will be back and hoping third time is the charm with having what we want.
