    The appetizers, drinks, and entrées were all excellent—no complaints at all about the food or its quality. Our only issue was with the wait time. Despite having a reservation for our party of six, we still had to wait 35 minutes for a table. What made it more uncomfortable was that we had to wait outside in high heat and humidity, with temperatures in the 90s. By the time we were finally seated, we were uncomfortably hot and sweating heavily, which took away from the otherwise great dining experience.

    Service and food were both fantastic. We had a reservation and arrived ahead of schedule and they were able to accommodate. Highly recommend reservations in advance.

    We were excited to try this popular spot, and things started off strong. The first plate was absolutely incredible—thoughtfully composed, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. It raised our expectations for the rest of the meal. Unfortunately, it went downhill from there. The second dish was a disappointment, lacking any discernible flavor and weighed down by a background mushy texture that made it hard to enjoy. Another plate, a serving of batter-dipped smelt, had potential but was undermined by a bland, uninspired sauce that did nothing to complement the fish. Although we planned to order 2 more plates, we cut our losses and stopped there. For a place with such buzz, we hoped for more consistency. That first course showed what the kitchen is capable of, but the rest of the meal didn’t live up to it. Cocktails were up to par, and service was spot on.

    Lunchtime at Stella's is good and busy. The noise level was high until people cleared out at about 2:30. The food and the service was great. The menu has a lot on it and could be fewer options and better organized. I never seem to be able to get a reservation for dinner, so lunchtime was a great option to dine!

    We had a reservation for 8:10 and weren’t seated until almost 9. The food is good. It isn’t worth the hassle of a late dinner reservation and the hassle of waiting. It felt very over priced and more or less under whelming. I don’t know that I’ll be back. Just not worth it to me. Richmond has other restaurants that are just as cute with as good/better food that are less difficult.

    Our server and food were great; however, the noise level at 7:45 on a Saturday night was off the charts. My husband and I don’t appreciate having to yell or text one another to be heard. Once the crowd started to thin the sound level became more bearable.  Will definitely be back but try to book a table outside or come much earlier in the evening.
