Stella's

We are regulars for both in-restaurant and take out here, and are always appreciative of the quality, value and service here. Staff are always helpful and cheerful without overdoing it, and having a chance to wander the neighbouring gallery before or after our meal or while waiting on takeout is an added bonus.

Visiting on Friday we noted some additions to the menu and were happy to try them: appetizer of Brussel sprouts and main of salmon Wellington. The Brussel sprouts were a pleasant starter, but, wow, the salmon Wellington was so, so good. Pastry was flaky, salmon perfectly moist, cream lemon spinach sauce so, so good. Lovely pilaff of brown rice and fresh veggies that comes with was also excellent- nice texture and perfect, fresh sweet peas work so well in contrast to the rice. Plus the pilaff ensures not a whiff of the lovely sauce gets left behind!

We really love that the whole menu is wholesome food with slight but welcome twists on the classics. I've never asked about this, but one thing of note: I'm guessing part of the Stella's aesthetic is to hinge on the healthier side - there's not a single deep fried item on the menu, which is so welcome. We come here as a family and honestly the lack of French fries, hot dogs and other standard "kiddie" food is deeply appreciated.

Locally owned and operated, locally sourced healthy food. The ambiance, background music and location is my favourite. This is the hidden gem of the Stella’s restaurants in Winnipeg.

Great menu with a breakfast all day selection. The omelette was delicious and their homemade jam is superb. All baked goods, including desserts, are done by Stella’s themselves. Grass fed beef burger is delicious and even better served with sunny side up egg. Roast chicken cranberry sandwich awesome! And tasty side salads.

Just sit back enjoy the food,service and ambiance. A wonderful experience.

Four of us came up to Winnipeg from North Dakota to go to the Lumineers concert and a person in the row in front of us had struck up conversation with us and suggested we go to Stella's for breakfast. We were staying downtown but decided to check out the location in St. Boniface for a change in atmosphere as none of us had been to the French ward before. The look/location of the building was not quite what we had expected, but the inside was very charming. It was pretty busy around brunch time but we only had to wait about 5 minutes for a table.Our server was very attentive, greeted us in both French and English, and we had drinks/waters right away. The menu was very expansive and it was tough to know what to pick. I was in the mood for something comforting, a French toast and coffee, but the Salmon Benedict looked too good to resist. Three of us got the Salmon Benedict and one other got the standard eggs and bacon Café Breakfast. We also got a small order of the French toast with maple caramel sauce to share.This was one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. The presentation was beautiful and for only $13 CAD (about 9 bucks US) it was a huge plate of food. The smoked salmon was delicious (this wasn't smoked salmon from a grocery store), and the spinach lemon sauce was very fresh and lightened up the dish. The layers of flavor were creative and complimented each other very well. I'm not a huge rosemary fan so I didn't think I'd be crazy about the scones, but the hint of rosemary was just enough to make it interesting, and my eggs were poached a perfect over-medium. I wasn't able to finish my plate because the portions were so big - I only wish that I had gotten fruit salad instead of hash browns just for something a little lighter. The hash browns were also very good, not greasy; we just forgot that hash browns at most restaurants in Winnipeg are what we'd call "home fries" and not the shredded potato kind we were expecting. They had a good flavor.The French toast with the maple caramel sauce was to die for and went perfect with the caramel latte I'd ordered. The latte was so smooth and creamy, it has basically ruined coffee for me because I haven't had anything since that compares in flavor. My sister ordered a mimosa and the champagne was bubbly, not flat, and the orange juice had just enough pulp. The glass came decorated with an orange slice.You could tell the chefs/baristas cared just as much about presentation as they did about flavor. You could go to any Denny's and for 9 bucks get some mediocre food slopped on a plate. Our food (even just the bacon and eggs/toast) was just as beautifully presented as it was delicious. Meanwhile our server checked on us just the right amount. We never had empty water glasses or want for anything, but she didn't pester us either (it's a fine balance). We raved about our food during the whole meal, and still talk about how delicious it was - each of us agreed it was the best breakfast we've ever had.We go to Winnipeg a few times a year, and Stella's will be our new go-to place for breakfast/lunch on every return trip. Just wish we'd learned about it sooner.

Love this location! Discovered it by accident one day and now it's my go to location! They have the cutest patio ever which is HUGE and surrounded by nice trees and some shady spots. Food is obviously on point I've never had a bad Stellas meal in my life. If you want to have some sangria and...
