It was a very very pleasant evening. Starting from the beginning.
Feb, 2023,
We came a bit earlier for the dinner and we were welcomed warmly to a room where our husbands could smoke a cigar (which is a rare thing today to find an inside cigar room).
As soon as the table was ready, we were welcomed but the owner to begin the dinner. This welcome was accompanied but a family story telling, with all the interesting details.
Indo love this moments. All the entourage around the gastronomic part.
As for the gastronomic part, we’ve chosen a traditional menu with the addition of one risotto from another menu. We all were amazed. Even for our friends it was a second time here.
Very cosy and warm atmosphere inside the wooden walls, a professional stuff, good wine and a high quality dishes.

After having an amazing tasting course meal at a non-Michelin starred restauarant in town durring our trip, we were really excited to see what Stube had to offer. While the dishes were presented very beautifully and the dining room was intimate, the taste of the food just didn't live up to the reputation of or the price of the meal. We ordered the classic menu, but maybe other menus would fair better.

The highlight of the meal were the amuse bouche. The pumpkin creme brulee was fun and different, while the venisoin taretare bites were flavorful, and the apple foam cleanser was fun. My favorite bite was probably the coca butter ball filled with pomgranate (?) juice. The mushroom croquette tasted like something I would get at any mediocre tapas restaurant.

From there, the rest of the meal was fine, but nothing was particularly memorable or outstanding, which I would expect when spending 140 euros per person on the food alone. The salad course with yuzu dressing was fine, but pretty basic. The mortefella tortalini in broth tasted like pasta I could buy in the refridgerated section at the grocery store adn the broth was fine but not memorable. The venision with herb blanket was cooked differently for each person at the table (from rare to medium), so we had to swap plates based on preferences. The pasta was jsut a cacio e pepe but made with cheese broth vs. pasta water, once again fine but not memorable or particularly unique. And then on the dessers, the coffee macaroon held room from improvement on execution (was overcooked in areas, if you're going to make macaroon, you better really know how to make a good macaroon) and the rest of the sweet bites tasted like something that might be served at a nice hotel conference center business lunchon (caramel cream and a hazelnut ice cream I think, not bad per se, just not memorable at all).

I did appreciate that they had a vary varied wine list with multiple price points, from 25 euro bottles to 500+ and the presentation fo the food was great. I just hope that they can improve on the taste and flavor in the future to make it reflect the price point and reputation of the Michelin Star.

Basics:
- wife's birthday, with two children, ages 12 and 8.
- arrived 19:45 and sat in the back corner.  -  Classic menu for adults, children from a la carte children's menu.
- last night of 8 nights in Madonna di Campiglio.

Several elements of the experience that we felt fell short of our expectations:
(i) the quantity and quality of the food fell short of what we would consider should be expected at a Michelin-starred restaurant:
(a) the "degustation of bread" was not a very high quality start to the meal - it felt  gimmicky and (for the restaurant) a low-cost way to make patrons feel satiated, given the quality and portion size of the rest of the menu.  The breadsticks were stale and crunchy (plus the acoustics of the intimate stube-style restaurant resulted in us hearing every other customer crunch on the breadsticks/crostini)
(b) the salad was underwhelming and fairly small and not particularly unique; (c) the soup with tortellini was unremarkable; (d) the pasta, while tasty, was not out of the ordinary for the region; and (e) the venison was a bit disappointing both in flavor and in size.  Overall, it was not of a quality one would expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant set menu.
(ii) the service was delivered by nice people with a very good level of English, but it fell short of what we would expect.  (a) We had to ask several times to have wine to accompany courses, while our glasses sat empty for a long time on the table - in two instances, my wife had to ask what wine could accompany the meal she was already sitting in front of, having to wait until the wine arrived later to start eating (for the main, the head waiter left her sitting waiting for at least 5 minutes); (b) our water bottle and glasses sat empty for a very long time, and we had to remind them to bring another twice.
(iii) Though they were clearly short-staffed, the staff did not seem to recognize their having fallen short of delivery:  when we called them over for the above reminders, the impression we got is they were annoyed with our intrusion, rather than apologetic for their having forgotten or for having fallen short.   We felt we were very kind and patient with the staff - we always are, but also because we both started our careers in the food services industry (my wife as a chef at 2 and 3 michelin star restaurants), so our starting point is always sympathetic.
Minor points:
(iv) upon arrival, when asking guests to wait for their table for an extended period in the lounge, a nice touch would be to offer a small coupe of prosecco
(v) it appeared staff attended to other tables with more attention, but we did notice that other tables had empty glasses throughout the evening.

There were of course some good parts of the evening, from the generally nice senior staff (e.g. at entry and exit), the presentation of the meals, and the extensive wine list.  It was also nice that you had a kids menu, a la carte, allowing for parents to dine on a set menu with the children eating from a different one.  The children enjoyed their meals, although we would point out that the Milanese Vitello con palate was overcooked - both the meat and the potatoes.  My son was so hungry, he ended up going ahead and eating (without out sending it back), but it definitely could have been better.   The meatballs for our daughter were undercooked initially, a situation that was rectified - with an apology (i.e. we appreciated the chef admitted there was a mistake, rectified the issue, and apologized -- and following that our daughter really enjoyed the meatballs).

The evening fell well short of our expectations, and we spent far too much money given the experience fell short of Michelin.

After the meal, I went on google to look at reviews and came across one on google reviews from someone called "Chris Kopczynski" from > one year ago.  I think that accurately portrays the evening we had as well, which makes me regret I did not do my research ahead of time.

Delightful meal of surprisingly sophisticated flavors. Who would have guessed that the best salad in the world would be found in the Dolomites in winter. Comforting environment, exciting food, attentive service: well-deserved star and all-around stellar addition to the Campiglio region.
