    Thanksgiving dinner a Stella San Jac was a delightful meal! I give big kudos to the chef! Every plate had a seasonal flavor with a twist. Every dish was true to the spirit of the holiday. The portions were crafted perfectly and allowed us to go home with leftovers! What more could you ask?!?! It was lovely way to celebrate Thanksgiving!

    Chicken for chicken & waffles was soooo good! Servers and hostess were attentive and kind. No complaints at all, aside from minor comment.. the BOURBON syrup is very bourbon-y in my opinion.

    Homeless people doing drugs right outside the entrance. Didn’t really care as that seems to be the norm in austin. But the glasses they brought us for water were filthy, had lipstick still on them. I was surprised the waiter didn’t notice. I went to the lobby to buy water bottles instead. The food came and the dishes were not the cleanest. The scrambled eggs were undercooked and mushy, the food made us sick, should’ve known better and not eaten it, so that’s kind of on us at that point.
