Stopped here for a late breakfast while visiting Austin. The staff were warm and friendly, and the food was tasty! Our server was kind enough to let us know when we sat that there were two large parties who’d ordered just before us so there might be a longer wait for our food. Not a problem at all since she let us know ahead, very thoughtful! I ordered the yogurt parfait with grapefruit curd and biscuits with honey butter. My husband had one of the egg dishes and we ordered a fruit bowl for the table. Everything was fresh, well-prepared and delicious. The biscuits were SO good! I would eat them every day.

My husband and I stopped for brunch on a busy Sunday afternoon. We were asked if we had a reservation. When I said no, we were given seating at a high top, which was fine. We both ordered the eggs/toast/bacon/hash browns entree. It was delicious but we had to get our own silverware (from another table), and we had to ask for ketchup, salt and pepper, sugar, and for refills. I won’t mention the name of our server. The food was good and they were busy but they weren’t slammed - there was still availability to seat more folks.

I had a fantastic breakfast of Chicken and Waffles with syrup and sausage gravy. The waffles were cooked perfectly and the chicken with the right amount of spice. The flavors together were incredible! Service was spot on by our server Solo!

All together the most disappointing meal I’ve had in Austin. To start with the miso cod had a number of faults with it. Within two bites I had had approximately 6 bones in my mouth more than my local history museum. What was particularly surprising was the defence the manager of this cod was that they had outsourced their deboning of the cod to another company which seems just quite frankly bizarre. Why would you make a fish dish without prepping the fish yourself ? Prior to my consumption of this cod I’d never had any issues of finding bones in my cod when dining at other restaurants. The miso sauce was also very disappointing very overpowering and salty compared to others. Overall this dish seemed like a child’s attempt at recreating a Japanese classic. Then after waiting another 20 minutes I had to wait for the chicken and grits. Which was under seasoned and lacking in flavour. The burger and fries my friend had was visually akin to something found on a McDonald’s children’s menu. The only thing missing was a children’s toy. Overall this was a hugely disappointing meal for the price paid waiting in total for 50 minutes for 2 mediocre dishes and not even getting one meal comped. Stay away - there are far better restaurants in Austin for less .

This is one of those places that is so hyped you expect something extraordinary. They are very proud of their biscuits, three for $18. What we were served were drop biscuits, heavy as lead and overdone. I had a pasta dish that was basically macaroni and cheese with four shrimp that cost as much as a car note.

Are here for an anniversary brunch, after a stay at the Westin. Was the worst service. No water for 20 min. No food for 1.5 hours. No drinks for 45 min. Waitresses looked confused and overwhelmed, and kept saying they forgot. Our table couldn’t even eat together after the long wait because the plates were coming out 10-15 min apart. Drinks were sub-par. Only positive thing they gave us complimentary champagne.

The food was delicious and Mary our server was great. Unfortunately, the table next to us complained and received their food twenty minutes before us and several free drinks, despite us ordering at least thirty minutes before them. It was a disappointing move from management, as we were polite, and not rude like the individuals next to us. But all in all, again, the food was fantastic, and Mary and the Bar Manager that spoke to our table were particularly fantastic.

Very good food and poor service. Our entrées arrived before the appetizers. I ordered the halibut and it was excellent. My wife’s Buccini with lobster was way too rich on the sauce (never order lobster in Texas). The restaurant is famous for its biscuits. And yes, we thought they were great as were the hush puppies.

We were greeted by some very friendly staff and the food selections were great. However, after a long wait for our food, the Smoked Salmon Benedict arrived cold, and the chicken and waffles was just about warm at best. Their second attempt at the eggs was much better.

Came in for a quick dinner after ACL - Mary was a wonderful server who brightened our evening with her sweet personality! Veggie pasta and pan seared chicken were perfectly portioned and served piping hot. Would return for another meal.

Stella Jac delivered with quality service. Our server had the swagger of Jack Harlow and his ability to remember our order was impressive. He was very attentive and provided solid recommendations on food. The chicken and waffles was a delicious mix of chicken with gravy and syrup.

I came in looking for plant-based options. Emily R not only provided some great food and beverage choices, she also gave a great welcoming feel to the organization overall. I feel like Austin has a bit of a charm that's a little different than what some might be used to. I welcomed it wholeheartedly. Will definitely return again. Highly recommended. Food is amazing and drinks did not disappoint.

We just had brunch at Stella San Jac and loved it. We couldn’t decide what to have so the two of us ordered the Pecan Praline French Toast, the Chorizo and Potato Tacos and the Short Rib Grilled Cheese. We split the food so we could both have some of each. Every bite was great but both of our favorite was the was the Short Rib Grilled Cheese. Our waiter, Logan, was always smiling and upbeat, knowledgeable and very attentive. Will definitely eat here again!

For the price and rank on Trip Advisor would expect a bit more. We may have hit them on an off night. Appetizers arrived after the salads and entrees almost on top of the appetizers. Food was solid, fried avocado salad had a generous portion for a fancy place. Biscuits were also great. In the L-shaped layout of the restaurant our view included the restaurant opening right up into the hotel lobby, which took away from the ambiance. Staff were friendly, but would have been better to not have all the food arrive at the same time and feel rather rushed.

I picked this spot based on previous reviews. I have to say I was disappointed. The first starter, the buratta, was great. But there was a long delay before the second starter, ceviche, which was mediocre at best. My husband got the shrimp pasta for his main and I got the wagyu beef. His again was very mediocre with a mere 4 shrimp. I didn’t really understand what I was ordering and was disappointed that it was a stew, but that was my fault. I’m also fairly certain the Pinot noir I ordered was a cab sav or maybe even a Merlot. It was very dark and heavy. We weren’t thrilled with the service or the desert options so decided to call it a night, which is unfortunate as we’d traveled here from abroad and it was my husbands birthday dinner…
