    Our server was awful and we had to request another server. She took our drink order, brought us the drinks and took our food order and never came back to check on us not once. She checked on every other table she had around us except our table and had the nerve to bring us our food once the kind hostesses told her we requested a new server and that Logan would be taking over our table. She then brought our food and wanted to follow up with if we needed anything. Girl bye, you could have let Logan bring us our food and not even tried at that point. My scrambled eggs reeked of fish. Not sure if they mixed them on the grill/stove top w/ the salmon or crabs Benedict but I could NOT stomach the smell nor eat them because of how fishy they smelled. The food was subpar. I will not be going back to this place again which is disappointing since they used to be a great brunch spot. Honestly, Logan is the only server over the years who’s been consistently working there. Everyone else is always a new face which speaks volumes about their work environment.

    Thank you for your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear that your experience didn't meet expectations, especially regarding the service and quality of the food. What you described is not the standard we aim to uphold, and we sincerely regret that this visit left such a poor impression. Your comments about staff consistency and food preparation are being taken seriously and will be shared with our team for immediate review. We’re grateful that Logan provided a positive moment in your experience, and we’ll be sure to pass along your kind words. While we understand your decision, we do hope there’s a chance to welcome you back in the future and provide the level of service and quality you once enjoyed with us.

    I had a terrific lunch with excellent service by Sam;so much so that I returned for lunch again the next day. Yndira was also excellent. The salads fresh and light, yet filling. Ok, the amazing biscuits probably helped! The greeter, whose name escapes me, was so welcoming both times.

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you had a great lunch experience with us and that our service left a positive impression.

    Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu! The food was absolutely delicious. I had the chicken entree and my husband had the pork chop. He said it was the very best pork chop he’s ever had. The chicken was so tender and flavorful. The deviled eggs and an order of biscuits were delicious as well.
    Stella San JacResponded on March 30, 2025
    Thank you for the fantastic review! We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed your meals, and that both the Pan Seared Chicken and Berkshire Pork Chop were hits! It’s great to know the Deviled Eggs and Biscuits also hit the mark. We can’t wait to have you both back!

    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.
    Stella San JacResponded on March 26, 2025
    Thanks for the feedback, Martha. We're sorry to hear about your experience with the reservation issue and the long wait time. We understand how frustrating it can be when plans don't go as planned. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused. Your feedback is valuable and we'll certainly look into this matter to improve our reservation system and service timings. We hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future.
