    Outstanding as always! I will start with the dessert, Baklava with salted caramel gelato. So delicious. The chicken and salmon dishes were so good. And, the bread-wow! We love everything about Stella’s. We had a wonderful time.

    Our experience last night was truly worth the wait. Amanda at the bar is a star! She made us the most beautiful and tasty spritz to set dinner off. Colleen, who was absolutely delightful, worked with us to get a table full of amazing food going - spicy vodka shells and the NY strip are a MUST. Everyone was extremely friendly, food and drinks were lovely and the atmosphere was lively. Can’t wait to return!
