Stonefire Grill

I've always wanted to try Stonefire Grill, ever since I was living in Irvine. Somehow it just never happened until last night. We were meeting friends for dinner and there were factors to decide... no chinese food, no waiting, no expensive stuff... etc. SF Grill popped into my head because I was recently reminded of it by a flyer (those things do work!). So, we decided to try it since it satisfy all categories... no wait, not too expensive (family restaurant), not chinese food, has salad. Yes, so off we went to the one in Pasadena. 

So, first you order your food at the counter and then you get a number and pick your table. Drinks, plates, cutlery, and BBQ sauce are self served. Here's what we ordered: Ribs+lemon chicken combo, ribs+tri-tip combo, a medium Spinach salad, and a small tomesto pasta. The meat combos come with a salad and bread sticks. The medium salad came in a medium mixing bowl that serves 2-3 but I think it can serve up to 4-5 people if this is just an appetizer salad. The small pasta can serve 2-3 people. We loved everything, ribs, chicken, tri tip were really tasty and well cooked. The salad was fantastic - plenty of chicken and avocado in it (mix well). The pasta was great too - large penne with a tomato pesto sauce - very rich and creamy, so a little goes a long way! We definitely ordered far too much for the four of us. 

This is a great spot for BBQ, salad, pasta, and more! Compared with Wood Ranch, I will definitely go to SF Grill for its price and laid back setting. Wood Ranch is more for atmosphere and service... but for a good old weekend meal, SF Grill is perfect. 

Next time I'm definitely going to try their pizza and maybe even the pulled pork sandwich!!
