Perfect food and service. We were seated on the thirdfloor which is our favorite. Our waiter, Darrin, couldn’t have been better. Thank you!

The food was amazing! The service was excellent…our server took great care of us and offered suggestions that were delicious. I love the atmosphere at Stella’s. My only complaint was we were seated right in front of the door. There was a lot of traffic in and out. It was freezing that night so every time the door opened we got a gust of cold air. That won’t keep us away. We will be back!!

I had a lovely time. Our server was amazing! The food was good! However, the portion size was small. There was also a $3 up charge to substitute the wild rice that came with the salmon to mashed potatoes. The portion of the mash potatoes was very small for it to be an up charge. Overall, the food, drinks, and experience was great!

Wonderful experience! Bradley was a phenomenal waiter. Cowboy ribeye was the best steak my partner and I have eaten, and paired with the scampi sides elevated it to the top. Also tried the stuffed salmon, which was okay. Desserts were amazing as well. Service was way better than expected!
