    I made an online reservation for the Fireside Room at Stella at the Sorrento. When I arrived, I was informed that there was a special High Tea event on Eventbrite and that lovely holiday decorated room was not available. They seated us in the bar area which was definitely NOT what we had envisioned as our special Christmas get-together between friends. In addition, it was raining buckets so I had called the hotel to find out how much the Valet parking was and was told it was $40, prohibitive. I decided to drive by the hotel before picking up my friend and saw a posted sign that the Valet was $20 for two hours, so decided to use that service given the weather. In the end, with a validation, the Valet service cost ONLY $8, and we gave the attendant $5. It is frustrating to be given incorrect information that just complicates the day. The food was quite good (artichoke/spinach dip with lots of toasted pita, and the meatballs) but I don’t think I would go there again. It was just sort of “off”, if that makes sense.

    Wonderful catch up lunch with a friend at Stella. The ambiance was fantastic, as was the service. And the food was excellent…crisp lettuce in our salads, excellent fruit, and the chicken was grilled to perfection. We were very happy.

    Great service and delicious food. Love the old world ambience. Only suggestion would be to turn the lights down a bit and have candles on the table.

    Nice enough, the food was good - we had pasta dishes which were well done, nothing fancy but good…the price tag is a bit high imo. Since we were staying at the Sorrento a good deal not to have to drive and look for parking elsewhere
