Excellent place for family dining. Food was very good and came tothe table without much of a wait. The waitress was very attentive and friendly. Chicken bites as entree went down a treat. My daughter was kept entertained with colouring in pencils and paper. Would happily dine there again.

Great experience. Staff was welcoming and had the table ready for us. Service was prompt and meals delicious. My daughter got colouring crayons and drawing. She enjoyed the experience( might add is a child friendly place despite being half bar establishment).
Also i want to give praise to Stellar , being always first amd most often only restaurant in town that embraces offers like this. Was the only place in town ever had been on “platforms with offers” ( so we don’t give names). WELL DONE Stellar!! 10/10. Thanks

Samara Welch - dined at Stellar Restaurant & Bar Whanganui on 2 July 2019
An enjoyable experience. We couldn't fault the food or service. My partner had the Sloppy Joe burger and I had the Chicken Roulade, both were well presented and very tasty. We then shared a scrumptious Banana Fudge Filo for dessert. Stellar has never yet disappointed us in any aspect of dining out.
