    The food was great, but be warned the price far outweighs the quality and presentation. The staff is friendly, seating is a gamble if you’re tall take a booth otherwise with the seating layout you will be in everyone’s way. All in all Stella is a romantic restaurant that you can take advantage of if you make plenty of money.

    The Valentine’s Day menu was awful. The food was all lukewarm even though the plates were piping hot which tells you all you need to know. This was the worst $300 meal I’ve ever had.

    Bolognese was flavorless, risotto was soupy, and the calamari was just ok. For requiring a credit card to make a reservation and the cost of the meal this was not worth it. Server was nice but not enough to want to go back. Would not recommend.

    STELLA is such a warm and elegant restaurant. Perfect escape on a dreary and cold Seattle night. The menu is fantastic and there is always something new to try, and the cocktails are fun and creative.

    Loved the food and the presentation, Would have enjoyed more goat cheese with my beet salad. Having 1 Tablespoon of goat cheese left me wanting more. Bolognese was incredible Having the option for adding parm would have been great! Tomato soup was a star! Coffee was also great (from a coffee snob). Wished I would've asked for a to go cup on this cold winter day.
