    What a lovely trattoria. Great service from maitre’ d Seth, my server Alane and her support team. The food was excellent, gnocchi and polenta stole my heart as well as the authentic and mouthwatering puntarelle insalata. Approachable in all areas for the casual diner to the elegant wine savant. 10/10.

    This was our first time at Stellar Jay, and we were delighted with everything. Our server Preston was very gracious and attentive - he had a wonderful sense of how we wanted to be served. The manager Rhea (we had met before during a tour of the Populus, which they run on Thursdays) came over to say hello - she was lovely and calm. This beautiful restaurant was nearly full on a Monday night. The food was fantastic - the two of us split an appetizer (mushroom tempura), entree (steak skewers) and vegetable (beets). Everything was delicious. We were surprised at how big the portions were and ended up taking leftovers home, which the staff not only kindly boxed but labeled and bagged.

    Randomly chose to try because it is in close proximity to the Ogden Theater. So happy we did! the portions were perfect for two, the flavors were excellent. The highlight was the crab bisque - It was so rich and flavorful. Personally didn’t enjoy the mushroom but my friend did. We also enjoyed the truffle mac & cheese, short rib tacos, and dirty vodka martinis with hand stuffed blue cheese olives. Can’t wait to go back!!
