"Stella is the epitome of what special occasion dining should be. The food is inventive and uniformly spectacular, although the desserts (we had the dessert sampler) underwhelmed us. Highlights were...well, everything we tried. The beet salad, citrus salad, and anago (eel) fish & chips were probably tops. The walu (fish) was solid. Service was extremely attentive, friendly, relaxed and well-paced, and the space is traditional yet vibrant. We've seen reviews saying that Stella! takes itself a bit too seriously, but that wasn't our experience. It's clearly a favorite of foodies, but didn't seem overly pretentious. As long as you're prepared to spend the minimum of $100 per person, it's belongs at the top of your NOLA dining list."

"I marveled at the attention to detail (the staff handled cutlery while wearing gloves, the menus were printed daily, we were offered amouse-bouches for the first time in this trip, etc.). Their choices were very good, maybe even extravagant, including a tasting menu for $175 per person, with recommended wine pairings and a caviar menu offered separately. We ordered a la carte, and our food was not only exquisite, but its presentation was superb. The desserts were also extraordinary, both in taste and presentation.
Finally, I would have to say that the best part of the experience was the service: Nathan our server, was very nice and attentive, and John the Maitre d' was charming and engaging. Absolutely the best in New Orleans."

"I had heard about this place, all good things, I might add. I happened to go to Stella! on my birthday, and all I can say is that, in every respect, the evening, the food, the service, the ambience...*everything* was perfect. Memorable, in fact. My advice? Go. Just go. In a town with many excellent restaurants, Stella! is a standout."

"Beautifully little restaurant in quiet part of French Quarter. Easy to miss unless you are looking for it. The food was phenomenal and very creative. Lots of molecular gastronomy stuff...food foams everywhere. Every dish seems to have an main ingredient prepared 3 or 4 ways, which I liked. The service was also very good. The presentation of the food was also very unique. I would recommend taking a second and see what people around you is ordering first."

"This was, quite simply, one of the best meals I have ever eaten. The menu offered plenty of choices and a great deal of creative use of ingredients and flavor combinations without being over the top with ingredients that you can't pronounce or have to ask what they are. Great wine list with a variety of prices. If I could have given 4 1/2 stars for service and ambiance, I would have. The only problem with the service was that we had 3 different servers, and it seemed like a bit much. But the service was very unpretentious, which is important to me. A great evening. We will definitely be returning on future trips to New Orleans."

"Wonderful experience. We had the gnocchi, risotto, and crab/citrus salad to start, all of which were excellent—the salad in particular was memorable. Entrees were sea bass with crab and lobster broth; fish and chips; tandoori salmon; and spicy prawns. All were good, though the salmon and sea bass were particularly excellent. Desserts were the chocolate cake with hot buttered lemonade; ice cream; and bananas foster french toast. The chocolate cake was dark and too rich for me, though I traded for the french toast. Service was very attentive, on the border of too attentive: several people paying attention to us, even without ordering wine, and never leaving us alone for too long. Overall, the best meal of the weekend; far better than August."

"The reviews were encouraging, but when my husband and I were seated and looked at the next table and realized we were sitting next to Chef John Folse,his wife and Rick Tromonto, owner/chef of TRU (Chicago),I KNEW it was going to be a memorable dining experience!The unique menu was, to say the least, interesting and delicious. We really enjoyed the citrus and crabmeat salad with the side of creme soda...(try it!...it's wonderful!) The grilled cheese with chocolate ganache, interesting!We had heard that possibly the atmosphere was a bit pretentious or stuffy...NOT SO. Our wait staff were knowledgable and approachable...even candid. The amuse bouche were delightful and the after dinner treats from Chef Scott Boswell...perfecto! We'll be back!"
