I tried their shrimp and grits, and it was excellent -- rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. It felt like a great introduction to Southern comfort food done right. The ambience was warm and inviting, and the service was attentive without being overbearing. It was the kind of place where you can relax after a long day of travel or meetings and enjoy a really good meal. If you're in the area and want a solid local spot with great food and a welcoming atmosphere, I'd definitely recommend Stella's Bistro

This was almost a disastrous experience, but the manager took care of everything wonderfully. I…read moreordered online and was given a total of around $77 for take away. I go to the restaurant early and used the restroom, then went to the takeaway counter to pay my bill (I chose "pay at restaurant" instead of paying immediately online). This is where things went bonkers. Apparently, if you order online but pay in person, they add an enormous amount of fees. Credit card fees, facility fees as well as mandatory 15% tip. Nothing against the worker, but I refuse to pay 15% tip for carry out food. I approached the manager to express my displeasure and concern. He tried to explain things, but it made absolutely zero sense. He said the machine/software they use automatically adds those fees when you order online but pay in person. I asked if I could cancel the order and go to the bar to order, and he said the fees would still apply. The ONLY solution, he said was to reorder online and pay online. What kind of sense does that make? Why is it more expensive to place a to-go order in person than online? Be that as it may, he canceled my order, and I resubmitted online without the fees. The fees brough my order to $92 (from $77, mind you). It is a complete disgrace and abomination how their system works, but the manager was very accommodating and corrected the issue. The food was really good as well. We got salmon and two chicken dishes and they were all great. The asparagus was horrid, but the other sides were quite tasty. Giving five stars for the customer service but would give ZERO stars for the online ordering experience. Do your due diligence!!!

Mediocre at best, and very pricey. (What the heck is the 6% "facility fee"??)…read more My wife and I both ordered 8 oz sirloins (at $26 each!). My wife's steak was half the thickness of mine, so of course mine came out way undercooked and I had to send it back. The meals came with only one side and we both had steamed vegetables which were barely warm. We had to spend another $5 each for a salad. My wife's garden salad was the best part of the meal; my Caesar salad didn't contain much good lettuce. No bread served with our meals. We're not big fans of the chain steakhouses, but honestly we usually get better meals at places like Texas Roadhouse (plus more food at much better prices). $70 for a lousy meal. We definitely do not recommend this place.

They also have a fantastic wine selection. I had a Chenin Blanc that was completely out of this world and paired beautifully with everything. The bartenders were outstanding--knowledgeable, warm, and clearly passionate about what they're doing. It all came together to make this one of those meals you know you'll remember.

The location on Main Street (in the former Lemongrass space, I believe) is charming and comfortable, though seating can feel a bit tight unless you're lucky enough to get a booth. The atmosphere is lively but intimate. Food-wise, the salad and entrées were very good, and service was attentive throughout the evening. That said, I did leave slightly underwhelmed given the expectations that come with a Michelin-starred restaurant. One small surprise was seeing entrées served with fries as a standard--it felt a bit more casual than anticipated. Overall, it was a nice dining experience and worth trying, especially if you're into Michelin-recognized spots.

Was meeting a friend for her birthday lunch and she chose the same place from last year's bday…read moredinner but discovered it was closed on Monday. She texted me stating she walked down to Shortfields as she's been here before with a group in the past and we can eat here. Ironically I have also eaten here only once before but at least two years ago and with a different group. She knew exactly what she was going to order the fish taco. I think she had fries. I finally decided on a burger, the one with mushrooms, onions, and provolone cheese. And chose tator tots as my side. The burger with its toppings were good. The tator tots were crispy like the way I like it but it was a tad bit salty. She said her fish tacos weren't that good. There were three of them, and they looked to be filled quite well. But she said there was an abundance of sauce, the flavor over powering the fish itself, and leaking out her tacos and on to her plate with each bite. She shared this to me throughout but never to our waitress, though she knows I do yelp. This place is casual and it does have a separate area that could host a group. Because it's December, it was decorated for Christmas so nice and comfy. I thought the service was good. I came from the fitness center and had my own large water bottle, but she (I forgot her name) was great about providing me more water. I liked how at the beginning she asked if ready to give our orders and sharing what the sides are, checking up midway, and not intrusive. Because the lunch shift was ending and thus hers, I already had my card with the bill but she still asked if it's okay to take it to charge it. The food for me was fine. The burger was good but wouldn't be something I would have to return for. I actually didn't finish my toys but brought it home and my son finished it off. Though my friend complained about hers, she ate all three of her tacos and the sides so must have been good enough to eat My experience was a bit mixed mainly due to my friend's attitude but then again I would not have come here on my own. I could see how some people may become regulars though I wouldn't because it's a bit farther from where I live, I personally would have wanted more vegetables yet the service, casual yet comfy ambience would be the pro side. (Not sure what happened to the photos I took of my plate and my friends taco. If I find it, I'll post it later).

Fortunately, staff informed us they DON'T sell squirrels. (Maybe next time) The meat case had much to choose from to include seafood. (Unless my memory is playing tricks on me) They even had an ARMADILLO EGG! Needless to say I bought one. I can't wait to try that bacon goodness!
