Review Summary

Stellina is widely celebrated for its authentic Italian cuisine and high-quality handmade pasta, with many guests describing their meals as memorable, flavorful, and expertly prepared. While the service is frequently praised for being professional, warm, and attentive, some diners have noted inconsistencies regarding long wait times or occasional lapses in communication. The atmosphere is generally considered cozy and elegant, though several visitors have pointed out that the space can become quite noisy, making conversation difficult. Opinions on pricing and portion sizes are divided, as some feel the experience offers great value for the craftsmanship provided, while others find the menu limited and the portions insufficient. Despite mixed feedback on seasoning levels and occasional service hurdles, many patrons recommend the restaurant for its fresh ingredients and standout dishes like the tasting menu and tiramisu.

Le menu est petit mais les plats sont délicieux. De l'entrée au dessert, nous n'avons pas été déçus.

If you are wondering if you should try Stellina, think no more - it's an Italian dining experience you do not want to miss. A perfect balance of Montreal class with a relaxed & welcoming flair, the restaurant is beautifully decorated, has attentive servers & an open air kitchen which allows you to see the visually stimulating dishes being prepared. I enjoyed the Insalata & the Spaghetti al Nero, with a side of the focaccia with prosciutto butter (you read that right). Delicious from start to finish. This was complemented by worthy cocktails. In terms of value, I have no regrets. Indeed, the only regret would have been to not try out Stellina.

Food was delicious. Proportions a bit small, but that is expected at fine dining restaurants. Service was polite, courteous. Decor was cozy, lighting was soft & the overall ambiance was pleasant & romantic.

Service was great but the food was average. It is definitely overpriced for sure & the space is small & crowded & tables are small so no privacy at all. I'd expect better environment & food for this price range.

C'était sans doute la meilleure pieuvre que j'ai mangée de ma vie! Les pâtes étaient aussi très bonnes, quoique les carbonaras étaient très salées & je n'ai pas pu terminer mon plat. Excellent service. Niveau ambiance, musique assez forte & gens bruyants, on ne s'entendait malheureusement pas.

We had a special New Year's Eve 5-course meal that was excellent. Oysters, tuna & veal tartare, rabbit ragout, sirloin, tiramisu, & the table favorite a lobster ravioli that I'd recommend again & again. Finished off with a Limoncello & some espresso. Thank you to the staff for working in our Family on a busy night. Wait staff & manager were super attentive & made it a very special finale to 2024! Merci Beaucoup!
