    Lindsay was an outstanding server, did not miss a beat. There to refill water, replenish beverages, take away containers. Checked on us to be sure we were enjoying every bit of our meal.

    We had a delightful brunch. Jack, our waiter, was excellent. Unfortunately, the parking is abysmal. The attendant input the wrong phone number to text for retrieval. My friend texted for her car and it took over half an hour to retrieve and that was without the Playhouse crowd. We anticipated parking being difficult which is why we decided to valet park. $30 is way overpriced.

    Stella has become my favorite restaurant. The food has been outstanding every time we have eaten there. Lindsay has been our server the last two times that we have been there, and she goes above and beyond. She is friendly, knowledgeable about all the menu items, and helpful with wine selection.

    The meal was tasty, we had great service, but each item, including the wine was extremely overpriced! We ordered 2 entrees, 1 appetizer and one bottle of wine and it was over $200! Probably won’t be back.
