    We had a reservation to eat at Stella San Jac and when we got there, before our reservation time, they said that the reservation system was not talking to their computers and so they could not honor our reservation made through Open Table. Then they said we would have more than an hour wait. So we decided to eat somewhere else that could accommodate.

    Bad service. Couldn’t get to open a Bottle of wine correctly (they are not prepared to serve good wine). Couldn’t serve wine ate the same time of the food. We order it first, but they just managed to serve the wine after we finished the Mai’s course. Had to order all the beverages two times. Very slow. And even we we asked for the manager, she was reactive receiving the negative feedback. Justifying they are not used to service wine (why them they sell it??). Very bad service and experience. Not going back

    It was OK. Don’t eat meat and looked at the menu before we went and there were plenty of options. Got there and they had a different menu for the week. Bummer. Not much choice.

    Unfortunately the experience this time around was disappointing. Because of SXSW they only had offerings from the brunch menu which had fewer options. Not what you would expect on a Wednesday for lunch. The service was very slow. We ended up getting breakfast items because the other food was not appealing or very healthy. We waited an hour for eggs and breakfast tacos. We then had to hustle to eat because we ran out of time. This time was a big miss. I won’t be coming back.
    Stella San JacResponded on March 6, 2025
    Hello Amanda, We're truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience at Stella San Jac during SXSW. We understand that waiting can be frustrating, especially when you're hungry. We apologize for the slow service and the lack of variety on our menu. We also regret to hear that you found our breakfast items not appealing. Your feedback is invaluable and we'll certainly use it to improve our offerings and service. We hope you'll give us another chance in the future. Best, Stella San Jac Management Team.
