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.

Beautiful restaurant, however, me & my girlfriend didn't like the drink or the food that much. We ordered a Limoncello & thought it was very plain, not really what we expected. Same thing with the pasta. The waitress was very professional & kind, the food didn't take long & the atmosphere was great.

Easily one of the best italian tables in town, the service team is great & make you feel at home! Everything we had for dinner was great, & the bombolones were a perfect way to end that meal!

The person who left the review below me is angry she got carbohydrates served in a restaurant specialized in pastas. The food is amazing & the burrata was the thing we liked the most. Recommend so much if you're visiting Montreal even if the price is a bit high.

I love the concept & ambiance of this place. Sat at the bar, & the drinks were good. However, the food wasn't up to our standard. We disliked half of what we ordered. Despite calling ahead to ask about vegan options, I found there wasn't much choice upon speaking to the chef. I ended up with a mediocre pasta with tomato sauce, which I had to heavily season with hot sauce for flavor. The salad I ordered as an entre (INSALATA) cost $22, which I found ridiculous for the portion & ingredients. My friend had the bone marrow & oxtail pasta called'Angolotti'; he said it was bland, lacked flavor, & the portion was insufficient for the $35 price tag. When our bartender/waitress asked how it was & we expressed dissatisfaction, she simply took the plate away without further inquiry. Another friend had a creamy pasta that he found overly rich, & he informed the waitress. They also ordered the octopus entré ($28) to share, which they both disliked. The waitress kindly removed it from the bill but only compensated one of them with bread & a sauce, & then charged us for this'compensation.' They also shared the mushroom & prosciutto entré (funghi saltimbocca $23), which they found okay. Some of us left hungry. The service was decent, with hardworking waitstaff & an okay waitress/bartender. Overall, I recommend this place for drinks with friends. However, the food was not great & overpriced. I might return to try the actual menu once my vegan diet is over. For now, I'm giving this restaurant 2 stars. I hope this review helps both the business & the customers.

2 stars just because the service was good. The food was awfully bad. No taste. The pasta was really bad. There are much better places for the price (even for less).
