I booked for some friends of mine I knew would be as excited about the ambiance & architecture as I was & Stellar Jay did not disappoint. The view was phenomenal for city atmosphere & I can’t wait to return in the spring for warm weather patio vibes. I wished they had an outdoor fire pit, that’s something I would have loved as an addition. The menu was unique & the food delicious. The staff were knowledgeable, friendly & offered great recommendations. I loved watching the chiefs prepare the food openly & the roasted fire aroma was intoxicating. Really enjoyed this visit!

Very rough start. We waited 40 minutes for anyone to acknowledge our presence. No water. Nothing. Eventually DAWA did fabulous job making up for the problem., and covered our drinks and cut the bill in half. Food was good. Loved Gabriel Mervine Trio.

Three of us went for our (very small!) firm holiday party - and it was amazing. I’d say the wine pairing was a bit pricey but the wines were definitely all good and thoughtfully paired with the dishes. You won’t walk away from here saying “I can make this at home”. One of the best tasting menus I’ve had.
