Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Uptown

This was our first time at Stellar Jay, and we were delighted with everything. Our server Preston was very gracious and attentive - he had a wonderful sense of how we wanted to be served. The manager Rhea (we had met before during a tour of the Populus, which they run on Thursdays) came over to say hello - she was lovely and calm. This beautiful restaurant was nearly full on a Monday night. The food was fantastic - the two of us split an appetizer (mushroom tempura), entree (steak skewers) and vegetable (beets). Everything was delicious. We were surprised at how big the portions were and ended up taking leftovers home, which the staff not only kindly boxed but labeled and bagged.

Enjoyed sharing two vegetables and one salad amongst the four of us. We then had an entree each and shared dessert. Wonderful combinations of tastes!

One of a kind experience. Celebrated my wife’s birthday here and can’t say enough about the service, food and overall experience. Certainly see why this has a Michelin star.

Overall great experience. We kind of got off to a rough start with the host. we wanted to know if they had drinks while we waited for our table all he could seem to say is we have a lounge. We asked if there was a bar available while we waited he said all we have is a lounge. I asked are we able to get drinks he said we had a lounge not a bar. So we went next door and had a few drinks until we waited for our reservation. Then we came back in 15 minutes before a reservation he escorted us to the lounge and then asked us if we wanted a drink! But other than that it was a great experience great food great waiter! I think for a big event we will be back.

Such great history. More old style banquet hall space dining room still elegant and beautiful. The hotel itself stunning was interested in tea but fully committed. Dawa and the team took great care of us and were on top of everything offering such genuine care and made celebrating my best friends birthday extra special! The food was phenomenal a lot of brunch options with some exciting new options. The bacon wrapped sausage in maple bbq a must try while the croissant and fruit tray makes the best starter. Thank you all again!
