Service was incredibly slow and the place as basically empty. Husband's steak was cold and eggs were overcooked.

GUILLERMO

Interesting small menu, poor execution. Juices and smoothies tasted watered down, biscuits were good but not great and tacos were far from $20 tacos and more like $9 tacos.

First time. Was very empty on Friday night. Learned the owners are transitioning to a seafood restaurant. Hanger steak was overcooked, not seasoned well. Biscuits and salad were nice. Might try out seafood after a few months.

Wonderful! We were travelling from Ireland and all my research said the Stella San Jac was the place to be, do we went in with quite high expectations, and they did not disappoint! Friendly chatty, but not pushy staff, wonderful atmosphere, the food was amazing just amazing, and on top of all that great value too.!

The cod was wonderful! We had the biscuits with honey butter, crab cake eggs Benedict, and chicken and waffles. Everyone was so attentive and welcoming! A great spot to eat and relax!

Didn't realize the menu at 1:30 p.m. on a Friday would be brunch. That was the most awesome surprise ever! It was so perfect right then. And the food was generous and scrumptious! Great service, too! I am a new fan! A+

The biscuits were fantastic and our server Olivia was wonderful. Our Caesar salads, however, had old/red tinged Romaine, which was disappointing.

This place is fantastic! Go before they close in June and ask for Olivia. She was the best ever. They are going to reconfigure to an oyster and seafood place, and they have all of their all-time favorites from the past on the menu this month. I had the lamb meatballs and the blackened redfish, and it was excellent. It's probably the best redfish I've ever ever had. Don't let this slip by!

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.

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.

The food and service here are first class. The service is spot on and there is no slacking off. The food is served piping hot, delicious and every bite is delicious. The mimosas and bloody marys are epic. Be sure to make reservations in advance as Stella San Jac tends to be full during the brunch rush

Loved the food and atmosphere. It doesn't feel like a hotel restaurant. The service is friendly. Biscuits were ok, not amazing. Wish the grilled cheese didn't have a Hawaiian sweet roll as the bun - will ask for something else next time as it was too sweet and strong. Best shrimp and grits ever. Burgers were awesome. Chicken and waffles were great. Will definitely be back

Deja

Excellent service, excellent food! They have changed their menu since the last time I went but all the new items were just as delicious.

Richard

Really enjoyed the meal from start to finish. The crab hush puppies were amazing. The wait staff were terrific!

We had an amazing experience, we ordered the short rib grilled cheese, the chicken waffle and the crab cake Benedict, I must say the dishes are very well served, and for future references I might consider sharing, but the service was great, the timing was excellent and the dishes where too good, we will definitely come back!
