    Another great brunch at Estella. Our server was a gem and the food was delicious. A great option for pre-Opera House dining.

    The waitress took forever to bring my second drink, I almost thought she forgot, and then when she brings it out, it comes in a plastic cup different than my first drink. I asked her about it, she gave me a decent explanation, but then I see her give other people Glassware, which I didn’t appreciate. I Will still Revisit. Nice Restaurant overall

    Servizio da parte dello staff davvero pessimo, tempi di attesa molto lunghi sia sull’ordinare che sull’attesa delle portate, per uno banalissimo piatto di patatine fritte abbiamo aspettato un tempo oltre i 20 minuti!

    Decided to try as it was close to the operahouse. Checked the online menus and looked great. Got there and ordered off their QR code menu. Was then told we couldn’t get what we wanted as it was only brunch. Nobody told us that when we arrived or gave us a brunch menu. Their website does a poor job explaining that. The server apologized and even said our website is confusing. What ever happened to getting a physical menu ? Not how you welcome a first time customer making them confused and unwilling on accommodate them. We decided to leave as the whole experience was uncomfortable
