Our comapny decided that it would hold our Chrsitmas function here upon recomendation from someone trusted. We layed complete faith in them and did so. It wa all good, we were showed the menu and booked. We paid a deposit and on the day it was sheer dissppointment. The restaurant was full, noisy, have square table so really could not have a social conversation, service was slow we waited an hour and a half to get our entrees, they rang out of beers that guys were drinking and when the food came out it was horrible. I would not recommend this place and would not go back by any means

Approximate cost: $55

First off, I just want to say that many of my WOMO reviews are super positive, and I love to give good feedback. I don't judge if a waitress is having a bad day or if a decent meal comes out a little late. But occasionally you receive food and service so terrible it is worthy of feedback.

The place was packed, and I understand it might be hard to get things right the first few busy days of the summer season, but this meal was utterly terrible.

We had to wait to order for quite awhile, and finally I flagged a waitress down. She is the reason I have given two stars rather than one for service, as she was sweet and provided good service in that instance.

My tea came without hot water, and then when I reminded a waiter the response was not apologetic. So far, no big deal.

The people sitting next to us were also looking desperate for a waiter, I pointed our server to them, and they thanked me.

Then it was more than a half hour wait for breakfast to arrive. When it came, mine had been ordered wrong. I would happily have eaten it except it was covered in goats' cheese, which I hate. So a waiter came over, gave a MINIMAL apology, and told me it would be a short wait. It was a LONG wait.

By the time I got my breakfast, my friend had eaten his (three very small, inadequate) pancakes, and the two tables who had come in after us had eaten and left already! I received no attempts at apology, nothing.

My full stella breakfast was so gross. The bacon had obviously come from the warmer, where the bacon had probably been sitting by now for more than an hour. It was congealed in oil and brown. The hash browns were those cheap catering jobs, and the toast was somehow cold!!! Seriously.

I ate perhaps a quarter of my meal and then we left.

I understand this place receives good reviews for their lunch and dinner, and I have also eaten here a few years ago for lunch, and it was great. I'm unsure whether it has changed hands since then.

However, if an order is wrong, after such a long wait, it's a good idea to comp the drinks, or do something to show care and friendship to your customers. And if this happens, the kitchen should try their darndest to make sure the breakfast is worth eating.

We paid around $43 for a full breakfast and pancake stack plus a few coffees and teas. An expensive breakfast. I should have complained, but I seriously did not get a sense of openness to feedback.

If any of the owners or managers wish to contact me I'd be happy to discuss this.

Approximate cost: $14-18

Went and ordered a few tapas dishes as it was a Sunday with a bottle of wine. The dishes took quite a awhile to arrive. Then ordered a few lot. Like the idea it not enough variety on the menu to chose from

This restaurant is in a good position near the Henley Beach foreshore. Had lunch here and ordered steak burgers which were well presented with chips. I needed to leave the bun but my husband was able to eat his and enjoyed all the food. Nice coffee too. The venue was friendly and well presented. The burgers were under $20

A bit overrated but the day we went it was hot and the service was a bit slow. When the food did arrive it was sumptuous. Loved the way the menu was set up for whatever type of eating you want to do on the day

There is a great view of the ocean from the restaurant. A very nice place to eat, especially at dinner when the sun is setting. The food is good, but nothing too special. Its a little bit expensive too

I have been to Stella a few times - once for breakfast with a friend, once for early family dinner and the other time for coffee and cake with the kids. The setting outside in Henley Square overlooking the ocean is gorgeous. The food is fabulous, especially the breakfast, and the staff at dinner were amazing with the kids. However I find the morning service to be slow and disorganised. Today we had to place our order in seat order so that they knew who to serve, yet when the food arrived they stood at the end of the table and shouted out what they had brought! Also difficult to get waiter's attention and had to wait ten minutes to pay the bill. Good coffee, though, so all is forgiven.

The food here is superb, a bit pricey so usually look for a voucher deal, but they surely have a nice setup and makes it very welcoming

It's beautiful to sit outside in the square during the warmer weather, it's quite a hive of activity. The service is just great, always friendly and helpful and the food is delicious. The tasting platter is a must.

I love it here especially during the warmer weather. The food is excellent and the staff are very friendly and attentive
