After seeing the google review about how amazing the food was and about the server Miranda, I decided to take it upon my self to try this restaurant... So, I requested to sit in her section an got a warm welcome almost immediately. She was very knowledgeable about everything and also suggested a Berry Collins and I now, I too highly recommend you must go there! I will definitely be back! If you want to go to a restaurant with great service I’d go here and see Miranda!

We had dinner at The Black Stallion before an event at Turning Stone. Only a ten minute drive, the location was convenient. We were all pleased with our meals; fresh ingredients, good portions, and nice presentation. Service was friendly and fairly efficient for a busy weeknight. Gluten free options were available for one person in our group. I will definitely return!

A once again! From the service(Brenda, I believe...don't lose your marbles)and the food....OMG, THE FOOD!!! We got Calamari and greens in the 1st pic, 14 oz strip steak in 2nd pic and Shrimp and steak pizziola with long hots in the last pic(apologize if not in correct order). We also got creme brulee and cobbler for desert, but ate it before I could take a pic! We also got dirty martinis from the bar...A!!! See you again!!

Very delicious. The workers are so friendly. With it being a popular place in a small town, there will be a wait on popular nights at dinner time, but the wait is worth it. The only thing I would complain about is the lack of seating if you're waiting for a table. They lightly suggest you can wait at the bar, but senior folk like my mother can't really sit on the tall chairs. Reservations are not mandatory, but given the wait and lack of space, it's a good idea.

Very friendly staff, and quick turnaround from order to table. The food is fantastic and large portions. The range in price of entrees is 16 (sandwiches)-50 (filet,etc).
