Stonefire Grill

Stonefire Grill

The Stonefire Grill is a restaurant inside the Radisson Fort George Hotel & Marina. It's actually outside by the hotel pool next to the poolside bar. We stayed at the hotel and dined here on July 12, 2006.

The seating here is next to the pool and poolside bar under the cabana. There was only one other couple dining at the time. It is Belize's rainy season, so there weren't too many people at the hotel anyways. The staff were quite attentive, since there weren't many other customers. The menu was fairly small, but contained some seafood dishes, pizza(!) and mostly local fare such as tacos and what we in the United States would consider "Mexican food."

We ordered a Pina Colada and my friend ordered a glass of wine. For our entree we ordered the steak and shrimp dish. Our server took our order and brought us salsa and chips. The salsa was very good, as it was made fresh in the bar. We watched a few of the staff prepare our meals at the poolside bar a few feet away.

In about ten minutes, the server brought us our entrees. Both entrees were served in large rectangular trays with a large heated stone in the middle. The heated stone actually grills the steak and shrimp. Hence the name of the restaurant, Stonefire Grill.
The server told us the meat was medium rare now, and if we wanted it cooked more, we needed to flip the food and grill it on the stone a bit more. There were veggies on the rectangular dish to either side of the heated stone.

The food was okay. While the stonefire concept is pretty neat, the meat does tend to get a bit dry as it stays on the heated stone. The veggies were very fresh, and the shrimp were delicious.

The total bill with 2 steak and shrimp entrees, 2 cocktails, and 2 bottles of water came out to $43 US, or $86 Belize dollars. The Stonefire Grill is not Morton's or Ruth Chris, but I was told beef was a bit hard to come by in this part of the world. I'd recommend this because it's conveniently located in the Radisson and it's a unique dining experience.
