Stella’s continues to be outstanding in every way. We travel an hour each way a couple times a year just to enjoy it. It never fails to impress.

Loved the novelty of slipping into a Speak Easy, having to say a specific password to get it. We dressed in 20’s attire. Would do it again but probably in a weekend where there may be a larger crowd and vibe.

We've been going to this location of Firebird's for several years. We always enjoy it, but there are some days better than others. Our recent visit was definitely top-notch! Service was so excellent, we made sure to tell the manager when they dropped by to see how our visit was going. We were there at lunch, so vibe was moderate, not as crowded, but definitely a good amount of people for lunch. The food was excellent, salads and smash burgers for the "Perfect Pair" menu. It was an excellent outing for sure. Host, waiter, kitchen, and manager... all top-notch! Thanks, we'll be back for sure!

    Excellent food. I had the Diver Scallops. They were perfectly prepared and paired well with Veritas Saddleback Chardonnay. The carrot cake was outstanding. It was a great experience, thanks to Kat our server, and wonderful place for a birthday celebration.
