My husband and I went here for his birthday last week. It was quite a nice atmosphere, the staff were absolutely brilliant, the food was good. For once my steak was actually cooked right! Seems to be something most restaurants cannot do right. My steak was perfectly cooked to rare, not overcooked and well done like most of the places we go. It wasn't mind blowingly good food, but it was consistent. I didn't like that our meals came out separately, and my husband had to wait a bit longer for his meal. All things considered though, we'd definitely return.
Love this place on a Sunday when I feel like a big breakfast or brunch for a cheap $15 meal, massive souvlaki, burger or just fish n chips. Good quality & service.

Reasonable wheelchair access (good parking, thresholds, and tables, but doors overly heavy and ramp to upper seating area a little too steep). Warm. Music a bit louder than I prefer, but not conversation-killing levels.
Love the stone grill venison. As others have said, the blue cheese sauce here is STRONG--one of us loved it, the other two found it a bit much (perhaps they should offer a milder option?). The roast potatoes (skin on) were way too heavily salted, but the veges of the day were beautiful. Our guest had the 500gm $20 steak special and made a pretty impressive dent in it too!
Waited less than 20 minutes for our meals. Ordering dessert did require flagging down a passing waitress, however.
The hot fudge chocolate sundae was well worth the $12.50, though a bit difficult to eat out of the tall glass it's served in (we asked for a bowl and transferred the contents). This thing came with tempered chocolate squiggles on top, ice cream, chocolate sauce, fudge, brownie... no sign of any whipped cream, but to be honest I didn't miss it. We got extra spoons and shared one dessert between two, which worked out well. I've had better meals during my week in Christchurch, but nothing that compared to this dessert!
The food was pretty good. The waitress was good and she made sure we were ok for everything.
This is a place we love to stop at for lunch when coming into christchurch for the day. the $10 lunches are great value for money and I have never seen the restaurant empty. now that tells you something on its own. Weh and meet friends here for dinner a couple of times and the only complaint would be it can get really hot in the upstairs setting area.
Had the most amazing time at Styx and Stone tonight. Went in for dinner and the place was buzzing, had a really busy bar and restaurant, so the atmosphere was great. We were told about the $20 stone grill deal and thought we would give it ago. Best idea ever. You got to cook your own steak, was so yummy as you get it how you like it. Staff all super friendly and very smart uniforms. Will definitely be back. Two thumbs up.
Lunched at Styx with my two daughters today. I have never been disappointed on my many previous weekday visits and today was no different. The lunch/$10 menu has great variety and is fantastic value for money - the quality is consistently good and you won't leave feeling hungry - haven't tried anything off this menu that I haven't enjoyed (and I've tried it all, several times over!). The staff are very friendly, attentive and work really hard to ensure you have everything you need. I highly recommend a visit, particularly during the week (this is when I've always been) - this is my favourite "go to" eatery. Although it was busy on this visit, the atmosphere was great - we sat in the area by the fireplace instead of the bar, and as usual, didn't have to wait long for our food and stayed longer than planned!

Drove into Chch yesterday to meet friend and do a bit of shopping after a quick lunch. Weather terrible so met at Northwood and decided to have lunch first. Friend had been before and as I decided to have the beef nachos, recommended I ask for a half size meal as portions very generous. Well she was right, even half size was more than ample, great taste, lovely and filling and generous with the cheese and other toppings and not too many corn chips which can sometimes be the bulk of the meal. My friend had the grilled chicken wrap which is a favourite of hers and once again didn't disappoint. Salad filling was so crisp and fresh and she said very filling, she didn't eat all the chips that came with the meal. We ended up staying longer than anticipated as atmosphere was lovely and cosy, and outside was not!! The staff were attentive and asked during the meal, and as they cleared the plates if everything had been okay with our meal. We finished off with a coffee each and flagged the shopping. Will be going back and perhaps try the dinner menu next time. Would recommend as a great place to catch up for lunch as the variety was great and as just out of town, didn't have to grapple with the traffic.
Great place! Have only been for lunches which are $10, such good value. Service is always very fast and never have been disappointed with the food. Friendly wait staff.
Had a $10 lunch of open chicken souvlaki, which was good value and very tasty. Also had an chicken BLT at $15 which was excellent, lots of flavour. Went there for expecting much for that price but were pleasantly surprised. Had dessert which was excellent. Service reasonably good, they were quite busy. Will return.
Nice experience, we ordered a Surf & Turf and it was delicious, the best I've ever had, for my wife, a mushroom risotto with a tasty pulled brisket, we finished with a volcano and a chocolate that you could tell was baked to order, highly recommended and a sticky pudding also delicious, 10/10
Nice food. The crispy chicken was the star of the night. Fish in banana leaf was nice as well
The staff was very welcoming and I felt a lot of respect yummy food 🥰
It was chill out time with my daughter.
Food was fine.
It would be better to have some presentations on the plate.
We recently enjoyed a meal in your function room, and we were delighted with our dining experience. The meals were delicious, and we want to extend our thanks for that. However, it was our waitress, Blaze, who truly made our evening exceptional. She displayed an incredible level of attentiveness to our needs without ever being pushy. Blaze went above and beyond, especially when we encountered limited dessert options. In our eyes, Blaze is a one-in-a-million waitress who deserves recognition for her outstanding service.
Enjoyed a lovely dinner here last night. We were the only ones around, but Dion (apologies for spelling) looked after us very well. My husband had the Rib eye steak which he said was very nice, and I had the hawker roll, which the kitchen kindly modified to a haloumi option to make it vegetarian for me. It was really delicious and very filling. This place has a nice relaxed casual vibe.
Of all the grill restaurants this is the best. starting with the exquisite menus they have, of which I have had the opportunity to try and enjoy most of them. However, I can't stop eating the varieties of pizza and the Sunday roasts. the efficient and effective service they provide, and something that I find very important is the cleanliness of the place, and the good music... it really is a place to enjoy with family and friends. Thank you very much for the good time.
We had dinner at Styx and Stone a few days ago. The service was very friendly and prompt and the food was delicious. My husband had a steak and he said it was the best he'd had in ages. I had a yummy burger with generous helpings of french fries. The menu is extensive with heaps of choice. We will definitely return next time we are in Christchurch. Thanks for a very enjoyable meal!

Incredible service. Outstanding staff who were nothing was a hassle. So polite, friendly and happy. Bella made a delicious cocktail, Kyra did a great job as a waiter! Brian was an excellent waiter and manager. Service with a smile. Great food.
I dined at Styx with some old friends recently and we had a wonderful evening.
The friendly staff provided an excellent timely service in very pleasant surroundings.
I chose the eye fillet served with a peppercorn sauce and a roast potato accompanied by vegetables. The steak was cooked to perfection. It was delicious.
There is something on the menu for everyone. I'll be back.
