- LLisavipWisconsin •5 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThe place is awesome, but we arrived at 6 and left at 830 because service was so slow. We did order appetizers but once they didn’t come timely we quickly ordered dinner and it still was a 2.5 hour experience - with kids- lucky they could run around in the garden.More infoStone Brewing World Bistro & GardensPrice: Moderate• Beer Garden• Escondido•4.5
