Stellina

-Insanely small portions for the exorbitant price of each dish. It's almost insulting to hard working people who enjoy going out.
- Calamari appetizer had a total of literally 8 calamari with the batter falling off them, mixed in a plateful of roasted green peppers, to hide the lack of calamari. Why serve them if they're too expensive for you?
- Burrata is not a whole ball of burrata at all- served on a few grilled peaches, with no bread ( 8$ Extra for a microscopic piece of'Focaccia' that is smaller than a McDonald's cheeseburger bun.) It's simply embarrassing. & Who does one think they are charging 50$ for a plate of pasta?

For Italians who know good homemade, authentic food from Nonna, for young people that go out to restaurants often, it's definitely disappointing all in all. Crazy prices for pasta & extremely mediocre appetizer/mains portions. The 5 star reviews are severely exaggerating. Please don't take people for granted with abusive prices & portions thinking we don't notice these things. Based on the responses by the owner to other well-deserved bad reviews, it's clear his ego's larger than caring about what people actually say in their honest reviews.

We were in Montreal for the weekend & booked Stellina at the last minute. The atmosphere & service were excellent. But the food was the star of the show. We had the crostone with anchovies, the calamari & the fungi saltimbocca. The crostone was a standout we loved it. Very simple ingredients but with all excellent Italian food it's the quality that makes it amazing. For primi we had the angolotti with bone marrow which was like a very creative pasta version of osso bucco…amazing, the carbonara was classic & delicious & the rapini pasta with sausage ragu was a creative spin on a classic. Wine list was great & good choices by the glass. Will definitely come back next time we're in town.

The food was decent & clearly well prepared, but the experience didn't justify the price. Portions were small, & the menu felt very limited, which made it hard to feel like you're getting real value.

What stood out most, though, is how this place reflects a bigger issue with dining out lately. You're paying top dollar, but getting less of everything-smaller portions, weaker drinks, & fewer options. Charging $9 for a small piece of focaccia & serving undersized cocktails just reinforces that feeling. I had two Negronis-normally a strong drink-& didn't feel anything at all, which says a lot.

It's starting to feel like dining out has become more about presentation & pricing than actual value. You leave spending a lot, but not satisfied. That's disappointing, because going out to eat used to feel like a treat-now it often feels like a poor trade-off.

I wouldn't rush back.
