Stella's Winnipeg

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.
