The food, especially the desserts, is great. Favorites:Delicate chocolate "bomb", uncommonly good Russian tea cakes, macaroons, lemon squares, cookies, carrot cake. Not-as-good, but OK: Layered chocolate torte and bread pudding (might taste OK, but outer crust often tastes and feels funny as if sitting out too long). Sandwiches are very good, and I always recommend their fresh breads to take home. Young counter staff often seems depressed, though - just floating around barely aware of the customers, and showing no signs of any sense of humor. Very sad. Must be a generational thing.

I'll take it on faith that the other two reviewers genuinely did not like the Stone Oven, but it's hard for me to understand why. The restaurant offers good soups and sandwiches in a pleasant, comfortable environment. And they have excellent bread available by the loaf. There is also a wide variety of beverages and the staff is pleasant. What more does one want in a neighborhood soup and sandwich spot?

I've gone here since they opened - always dependably good, fresh and pretty good value. They're now in new location - and the change didn't improve anything. Mostly new staff is pretty clueless without improvement. Orders come up wrong alot. Unorganized. Poor ordering system. Some pretty weird soup choices some days. Prices up, quality and quantity down. The only good thing is still the fresh made, excellent bread. Seems they've stopped paying attention to the customer and righting wrongs. Too bad, too.

We went there on a recommendation -- it was ok but across the street there was this new video game store, Alley's, and they really rock. The food at the stone oven was ok, and it looks nice from outside the store, but once inside, it felt dingy. The lentil soup looked liked vomit but there were other items on the menu. Except the dingy feel inside, it was ok. A lot of older people for customers, sort of cafeteria style environment, like au beau pain
