Absolutely delicious meal, great ambiance & do me a favour & try the ravioli - it changed my life for the better. Holden, the manager made us feel like royalty & our waiter Eric was so kind! Highly recommend. xxx
Mon mari & moi sommes allés au Stellina pour un souper à deux pour mon anniversaire. Je n'ai pas de mots pour décrire l'excellence du service & des plats que nous avons eu. De l'entrée (la pieuvre!!!) , aux pâtes, le poisson & même le vin. Pur délice.
Mention spéciale au serveur que nous avons eu samedi, Eric. Nous avons bien fait du suivre ses recommandations.
Je recommande vraiment !
Merci pour cette belle expérience délicieuse.

Fabulous find. Very friendly, cheery, relaxed team. Small menu but absolutely delicious, fresh, made on-site, pasta - quality ingredients that taste out of this world.
Visited 4 times in one week - highly recommend!
Excellent food & service! We had a wonderful experience at Stellina. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully prepared, & full of flavor. The atmosphere was warm & inviting.
The service was exceptional, friendly, attentive, & made our evening even more enjoyable. Thank you for making our visit so memorable. Highly recommend Stellina & we look forward to coming back!
We visited here for lunch before checking in at the InterContinental, choosing it on the spot via Google Maps.
Although the 4.3 rating made us hesitate briefly, we decided to go in because the exterior looked trustworthy & reliable.
The building exterior has a classic Old Montreal charm, & the interior is cozy & beautifully designed, creating a wonderful atmosphere. They also have an outdoor patio space, which looks great for dining during nice weather.
The lunch menu was reasonably priced & the portions were satisfying. The appetizers were pleasant, & the fusilli pasta course was a bit salty, but still delicious. The main filet mignon steak felt like finding the best tenderloin steak of my life. It was cooked to a perfect medium-rare, & the meat was incredibly tender & pillowy soft.
The service from the staff was welcoming & polite. It is recommended Italian spot near the hotel.
La nourriture était succulente. D'habitude les desserts en tendance à me décevoir & cela n'est pas arrivé. Je recommande vivement d'y aller. Le service peut être lent surtout s'il y a beaucoup de monde , mais ils sont attentifs aux besoins du client.
What an amazing dining experience! The food was absolutely delicious from start to finish, with every dish prepared perfectly & full of authentic Italian flavor. The ingredients were fresh, the presentation was beautiful, & every bite was memorable.
The service was equally impressive-friendly, attentive, & genuinely welcoming without ever feeling rushed. The staff went above & beyond to ensure we had a wonderful evening. Highly recommend!
