    #16 Biscuits**
    Katie M.

    Wow, what an evening! Started off with the biscuits and ceviche - the biscuits are so soft and flaky, and the ceviche was rich and fresh. Really nice compliment to each other with the freshness of ceviche and savoriness from biscuits. I had the spicy shrimp pasta and it was very good. I'm typically a "medium" spice level and this was perfect for me. Of note, they don't have gluten free noodles so if you have an allergy, might be best to choose another dish.... Which the Braised Wagyu and Chicken dishes were off the charts!! My boyfriend's Wagyu plate was clean when he was done eating (HA) We didn't get dessert, but the table next to us ordered a key lime pie slice and it almost made us reconsider (but we were too full). Looking forward to coming back for Brunch!

    I wanted to start my day with some good food, so I headed to Stella San Jac, located on the first floor of the Westin Hotel and directly connected to the hotel lobby. The restaurant has a modern, sleek atmosphere with an inviting, open layout. I was warmly welcomed by the host and promptly shown to a table. Having already done some research on Yelp, I quickly decided on my order: the avocado toast and a berry smoothie called Rejuvenate, which was listed at the top of the breakfast menu. My breakfast arrived shortly after. The smoothie was served in a glass--smaller than I expected--and while it tasted fresh, it was a bit too thick for my liking. It was okay, but not particularly memorable. The avocado toast, on the other hand, exceeded expectations. Beautifully plated, it featured thick-cut artisan bread generously topped with smashed avocado, heirloom cherry tomatoes, pickled onions, microgreens, and a perfectly poached egg. The flavors were well-balanced, and the textures--from the creamy avocado to the crisp toast--were spot on. It was clear the ingredients were fresh and thoughtfully selected. Overall, my morning at Stella San Jac was a pleasant experience: friendly staff, quality food, and an elegant setting made for a great start to the day.

    This was our first stop when in Austin. We had an early flight and were super hungry. After looking on Yelp and Tik Tok we settled on going to Stella San Jac. So glad we did. The servers all had on these crazy shirts and we were served by The Sheriff! He was amazing. His recommendations were on point. I don't normally do chicken fried steak but he said it was his favorite. Glad I trusted him. It was delicious. The gravy alone was a star. The chicken and waffles were perfection! Seasoned well and a little spicy with the sweet syrup worked well. The eggs were a little soft for me but thats really just preference. Mimosas to wash it down and we were happy. They are connected to a hotel so it was great to people watch and meet others. This is a must stop in Austin!

    Food was Ok. Nothing special or memorable but it was a meal. I had the short rib grilled cheese and it was dry and lacked cheese. The others meals were also ok, but not a show stopper. Service was SLOWWWW. Had to ask for our waitress twice as we sat for some time(after receiving boxes) before getting our checks. They didn't split checks so if you go with a group be aware.

    Grapefruit Curd Parfait
    Treacy N.

    It was a great spot for brunch! We ordered a carafe of mimosas, which came with champagne and a mix of passion fruit juice and orange juice. They also offer other juice options, which was a nice touch. I also had the Energize juice (carrot, orange, and ginger), which was super fresh and refreshing. For food, we started with the biscuits for the table, which were the perfect mix of sweet and savory. For my main, I had the short rib grilled cheese on a Hawaiian roll with smoked cheddar, caramelized onions, and jus, served with fries. The fries were a bit on the salty side, but everything else was absolutely delicious. We also had the pecan praising French toast which I liked as well. Then the grapefruit curd parfait with granola and fruits for the baby. The service didn't particularly stand out, but the overall experience was still great. One thing I really appreciated was the discounted valet for $10, which made parking super convenient. It's also a kid-friendly restaurant, with crayons and coloring sheets to keep little ones entertained. Overall, I'd definitely come back. The food and drinks were fantastic, and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Highly recommend!

    Lemon Buttermilk Pancakes
    Brian B.

    When disappointment oozes from one's taste bites it looks like the pictures I'm attaching. I was excited to try Stella San Jac, reading reviews online I saw 4.9 stars! Can't go wrong, I thought. Well I was wrong! I ordered the lemon butter pancakes, and a smoothie. Well they didn't have the smoothie, I learned that when I arrived to pick up my order. I'll say this the Bartender and the gentleman that greeted me at the restaurant made we feel welcome. So that my friends is positive. And the restaurant was a nice looking place BUT those dam* pancakes disappointed me greatly. I think I might re-visit but will not order the pancakes, and I have to admit my first bite was good but as I went through the stack of pancakes they just got more brown and crisper, so yes chef hid his mediocre work and boxed it up and I was the victim. Not good, not good at all. That would usually cause me to never go back to a place but I have a feeling they may be better at lunch and dinner after all most people give these place 4 stars. Makes me say hmm, and wonder. So we'll see if I'm back. Now I have to go get Starbucks...

    Breakfast was great! Service was the best here! I had the pecan French toast -- literally bread pudding shaped like French toast ha! The waffle was dry that came w chicken. The biscuits n gravy were okay. 16 biscuits was the best thing by far great vibe here too.

    I wanted to pass along a heads up on a bartender who is stealing from the company by overcharging guests. I stayed at the Westin Hotel in Downtown Austin for a week mid November. My wife and l stopped in for 2 drinks each. She went with a cocktail and a glass of prisoner. l went with a basil hayden old fashioned & an angel's envy old fashioned. When l received the tab, I noticed I was charged $32 for the Angel's Envy old fashioned. The bartender's name on the receipt read Bishop. He has a man bun and he's inked up on his arm. I asked, $32 for Angel's envy huh? He looked at me funny and said, "Sorry, I don't set the prices." I looked at him back and let him know that seems high. He looked concerned like I had caught onto something and went over to the PoS System and printed out a 2nd receipt and said, there you go, I charged you $20 for it, the price of the Basil Hayden. I hit Stella San Jac a time or 2 throughout the week I stayed with the intent of getting a bartender to price check. I got my way mid-week and asked a bartender to price check on the couple old rounds I had. I was informed both are $20 a piece. This meant the obvious - Bishop set the price in the system manually before printing out the receipt, and when greeted with skepticism, folded and printed it out as it was programmed into the system. I get the guy's just a bartender, and most guests/clientele staying at the Westin have the money for it, but it's a dishonest, very low integrity move. He's using the location to overcharge guests who are already paying a premium to stay downtown, paying $50 extra a night for parking, and know they're going to be paying a couple bucks extra on drinks with Stella San Jac being conveniently located in the Hotel guests are staying at. White Lodging should look more into their staff's background, work ethic, and hire honest folks. The bar (no pun intended) is set low on who they hire. I question how many other staff members were pulling the same play on guests and shorting the company. It's all around piss poor reflection on the company and the people working here need to set aside the friendships they're forming at work that's enabling them to ultimately screw over the guests that are drinking here.

    Sausage & potato tacos
    Ellen B.

    Had lunch here and it was great! Started out with bloody Mary with the perfect amount of spice. Our group had some apps and entrees. Favorite app was the burrata bruschetta. Crisp bread, creamy burrata and fresh tomatoes. I had s fried avocado salad, which was fresh and flavorful. Our server, Yndira, was sweet and very helpful in making food choices. She was perfectly attentive to our needs. Would come back if ever in the area! Tip: don't forget to check in for free biscuits!! Amazing, with honey butter and jam!

    Steak and Steak & Eggs*

    Smooth ambience, food is fresh and delicious, excellent service. Will return with my family.

    I don't know who has been doing the reviews but they ain't accurate. The service is slow and the food was a complete miss. From the flavor profiles to the serving portion. It was just a sad sad brunch over all

    Greyhound cocktail special
    Aruni G.

    I met a friend here for dinner prior to a show at Antone's, which is conveniently just across the street! We enjoyed the Austin Restaurant Week cocktail. I made a res but it was pretty open in the dining area for a Friday night. I'm glad we sat in the dining area because the bar area was very loud. We had good service and enjoyed our apps. I'd like to go back again to try more items on the menu!

    Short Rib Grilled Cheese
    Shveta M.

    I crave their #16 biscuits all the time. That honey butter is just too good. Make a res and go for brunch! I recommend the deviled eggs, biscuits, fried avo salad, short rib grilled cheese and get a cocktail or two. They'll make you anything if you want something off the menu. The grilled cheese would be perfect for that hangover! The smoked salmon benny was ok - think the Hollandaise wasn't my favorite. The chicken and waffles would be better if they used thighs. The waffle was good! Overall, banger spot. Super busy on the weekends so make a res or go later.

    RE: Business owner information General Manager…read more Business Manager Jul 17, 2026 Hi Paul, Thank you for your detailed feedback. While we're glad you joined us, I'm sorry to hear your breakfast experience didn't meet expectations. We'll be reviewing your comments with our culinary team to improve consistency. We appreciate you giving us a try and hope to provide a better experience in the future. Warm regards, Wes Brown It's great to receive a response from the business manager regarding our experience at their restaurant, but all four us thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast. We had absolutely no complaints regarding our dining experience. Caroline is affiliated with the Marriott Element and Aloft hotels and that, I believe, where the affiliation ends. I try to avoid hotel eateries but I've had great dining experiences at hotels like the JW Marriott in Austin. We, four, stopped by on a Sunday AM for breakfast and we had a great time. They do have brunch cocktails available and their bloody Mary's were deemed excellent with just the right amount of spice. My bloody Maria was on point and we all got our Sunday Funday started. Breakfast was wonderful. Our eggs arrived cooked perfectly. The pepper bacon and real potato sides were off the charts delicious. They also offer a few TexMex breakfast options and Plus one was raving about her Huevos Rancheros plate. Service was excellent even though they became busy our server was very attentive. Pro tip: Sat and Sun AMs if you arrive early you can easily score a table.

    PHENOMENAL FOOD! I was scared that everything would be bland and tasteless when I saw the gluten…read morefree, dairy free etc., but NOPE! Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING we ordered was fresh, delicious, light, yet filling. I got the Social Butterfly drink which had butterfly pea powder in it to make it purple. It was as delicious as it was pretty. All the cocktails sounded amazing, I can't wait to go back and try them all. For starters we got the Guacamole, Brussel Sprouts and Crispy Macha Potatoes. Each of these were executed to perfection. The guacamole was fresh, topped with pomegranate seeds and well seasoned. The chips that came with it were light, crispy and it was gone in a flash! The Brussel Sprouts were cooked perfectly...tender and flavorful...not greasy...literally the best I've ever had. The Crispy Macha potatoes were next level!!! I have no idea how they make them, but they were SOOOOOO GOOD!!! I got the Waygu Sirloin as my main course and my friends got the Coconut Curry Squash. I enjoyed my steak and my friends liked their dish as well. We also shared the Roasted Beet Salad, which was fresh and tasty. Overall, can't wait to go back! 10 out of 10!!!

    I wanted to like this restaurant, but they made it hard to do. We started off with the guacamole…read more The pomegranate seeds on top were a nice touch, but man, this was flavorless. It was painfully boring. We had our 6-year-old, who is head of the Picky Eaters Society, so we ordered bread with butter. This 6-year-old, who eats bread on the daily, took one bite and wouldn't eat any more. We even get gluten-free bread regularly, and he eats it. The bread was fine, but don't expect flavor. By some miracle, they even made butter tasteless. I considered calling the Vatican to see if this was some holy, divine miracle, but my wife suggested maybe the main course would be better. We settled on the pesto pasta with chicken added for an additional fee. The pasta was good. Great texture, good flavor, and the combination of ingredients was good, but it's nothing original. It's pesto pasta. It's a classic. I appreciate the pomegranate seeds on the guacamole because it's original, it's clever, and it's different. We also ordered a special soda drink for our son, and it had a small black bug on top. I had them take it back and replace it. I kind of expected a "Listen, we apologize for the bug. Here's half off dinner," or something, but nothing. Service was fine, and it's a decent atmosphere. If you're looking for a place to sit and talk it's a great place, but if you want food or a drink go somewhere else.
