    We had a large party of eight, they held our table for us despite the fact that we were running a tad late. Server was excellent. Food was amazing. I love this place.

    Uncomfortable seating, but great food! Just wish the tables had normal chairs rather than stools

    Starbelly is a really pleasant space with a good variety of food options; we chose it this day because it could accommodate our small dog in the back patio (miss the pandemic outside front seating a lot!) but with a roof in case the weather had not been good. Also, they serve a good version of a loco moco with sweet soy instead of brown sauce on weekends, and like fried chicken, that's the kind of thing that is a pain to make at home but easy in a commercial kitchen. Finally, they have non-alcoholic options that aren't drastically second-class.

    Our waiter Jorge was wonderful: quite attentive, accommodating, and right on point with explanations. The healthy but tasty salads are a large enough for a lunch meal itself.

    Always love it here but almost always have to keep my jacket on because it’s so cold. Especially inside.

    Server didn’t realize we were there until 13 mins of sitting there. They were to busy talking to their co workers.
