The Stella in Seattle's iconic hotel is the perfect place for an intimate dining experience with top-notch menu choices. I had the steak in brandy-pepper sauce with broccolini and finger potatoes. The steak was cooked perfectly and the sauce very, very good. I also recommend having their Cesare salad. A really nice take on the traditional Caesar salad, exceptionally yummy. A drink before dinner in the Fireside Room is a must on a cold-rainy Seattle day/evening. You can even order from the Stella menu and dine next to the fireplace. The entire staff from Valet entrance to exit are all incredibly accommodating at this establishment.

Ordered the shrimp pasta from SRW menu - nice potion and tasty. For dessert, got the tiramisu- nicely balanced flavors and large portion. Only ate half. Servers were attentive and room has dark wood interiors. Table settings were tasteful. Only $5 valet. I recommend this place.

I took a friend to lunch for her birthday at Stella and had a wonderful time! The service was really fantastic, the ambiance was perfect, and the food was delicious. Everything about our time at Stella was welcoming and comfortable. Thank you for making my friend's birthday lunch special!

Had breakfast here: not recommended, food and quality wasn't at the same level as the expected. Mocha came with a bad taste and the food wasn't worth it.

The restaurant had great ambiance and the staff was very helpful. The food was good and the cocktails were excellent!

Steak was great. Wine was corked. Took much effort to get the waitress who didn't know wine at all and the manager who kept claiming it was too young and needed to breathe more as the notes of burnt rubber continued to develop in the second decanter. Finally got another equally priced bottle. Great Tomahawk, but they won't make Wine Spectator anytime soon

Stella and The Fireside Room at Hotel Sorrento are 2 of my very favorite spots to eat and entertain in Seattle. Inside the historic hotel, the visual appointments are elegant and unique, almost making one feel they have walked right into the early 1900's. The menu is extensive and the food, fabulous. The service was first-class. First rate experience all-round including valet parking. We felt 100% taken care of, 100% of the time.

Overall, the experience was fine but not over the top as one would expect at this restaurant / hotel. Our waiter was charming but he was also the bartender. It is clear the restaurant is understaffed (as are many restaurants these days). The food could have been hotter but the flavor was good. I though it was a bit overpriced for just eggs and potatoes. The coffee was cold and we had to ask for even one refill. I would have liked some toast or a small side "something" to round out the meal. All the staff were friendly and the setting is wonderful.

The ambience is warm mahogany walls and fireplace. You are greeted by warm and welcoming staff. The food is expertly presented. The prices, well, it's a bit on the pricey side, but it's almost worth it!

Took45 minutes to get cocktails and nearly an hour to get bread (focaccia) before our anniversary dinner. Either understaffed or incompetence, either way nit worth the effort to park and dine in city
An amazing evening at Stella tonight in the Fireside room for their end of the year jazz series. The evening could not have been more perfect for a special Bday celebration with 4 girlfriends. Excellent service and excellent food. Above and beyond. We will be back again and again!

I'm a bartender, and I come here because it is quiet, respectable. All of the bartenders here are amazing. You can name any cocktail and they will know it without Google, which is quite rare. They are artists, and if you want a good time with a bartender that cares about your day, go see David, Tony, Shaw, or Devin.

Love coming to Stella and their other outlets in the hotel. Although I enjoyed the food, the ambiance, and service, I wished the portions were worth the price that they advertise.

Really interesting menu with Italian specialty dishes, and an extensive wine and cocktail list in a lovely setting. Always a wonderful experience.
