Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Lafayette

I booked for some friends of mine I knew would be as excited about the ambiance & architecture as I was & Stellar Jay did not disappoint. The view was phenomenal for city atmosphere & I can’t wait to return in the spring for warm weather patio vibes. I wished they had an outdoor fire pit, that’s something I would have loved as an addition. The menu was unique & the food delicious. The staff were knowledgeable, friendly & offered great recommendations. I loved watching the chiefs prepare the food openly & the roasted fire aroma was intoxicating. Really enjoyed this visit!

We've tried to get a table here for years and on a whim got on open table for my wife's birthday. Our experience and expectations were exceeds! Service impeccable, food a great adventure, and expert wine pairings. This is worth a special occasion splurge.

Three of us went for our (very small!) firm holiday party - and it was amazing. I’d say the wine pairing was a bit pricey but the wines were definitely all good and thoughtfully paired with the dishes. You won’t walk away from here saying “I can make this at home”. One of the best tasting menus I’ve had.

4 of us shared the Wagyu prix fix and it was excellent. A great way to try a taste of many menu items. LOTS to eat that was all excellent in quality and flavor.

Great service, great food. The noise level allows us to talk.
