Stony Ridge Cafe - Ely

Rustic resort restaurant on the lake! Great indoor and outdoor seating. Expansive burger menu! Ordered holy grail stuffed burger and the Rueben. The burger was good, but not sure it's worth the $22 price tag. The rueben was excellent despite having a twist of using roast beef instead of corn beef. Fries are hand cut and a must! Service was exceptional. She was very attentive, but then again we were only the 3rd table in the restaurant. The sticker shock of the margarita was the reason for 3 stars. $14.50 for rail tequila and pre-made mix on the rocks is severely overpriced! After the second one and seeing the bill will definitely not do that again

The burgers are a little pricy here, but they are absolutely delicious. My favorite is the Ojibwa Burger, which has cream cheese and black olives. The juicy Lucy was alright. I look forward to trying some of their other selections in future visits.

Great burgers, but a hard to find location. Hours and attitude can very, but it's a great burger place.

We have always enjoyed the burgers here and today tried breakfast. Not at all disappointed. Great full plates and wonderful tasty food. The service is friendly and attentive.

I have mixed reviews about the place. We've been coming here for 30+ years, when it was originally called Shagawa Sam's. The Burgers and breakfasts are still phenomenal and i have zero complaints about the food. What they charge is what gets me. Two burgers and sides along with two drinks and our bill was $60+, not including the tip. If the proprietors can charge what they charge and not lose business, more power to them. I'm not sure when I'll be back.
