Review Summary

Stellina is widely celebrated for its exceptional, authentic Italian cuisine, with many diners highlighting the high-quality fresh pasta, creative tasting menus, and standout desserts like the tiramisu. The open kitchen concept and professional, friendly service frequently enhance the dining experience, making it a popular destination for dates and celebrations. While the majority of guests report memorable visits characterized by attentive hospitality and flavorful dishes, some feedback notes inconsistencies such as over-salted pasta, small portion sizes, or occasional service lapses. The atmosphere is generally described as warm and inviting, though some diners find the noise levels to be high and the pricing to be on the premium side for the value offered.

Excellente expérience un samedi soir avec le menu dégustation. Définitivement une expérience que je recommande. Merci!

Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. The food took quite a while to arrive, & when it finally did, half of the dishes were cold & had to be sent back to the kitchen. For the price point, especially with pastas around $38, the quality did not meet our expectations.

That being said, the service team handled the situation professionally. They were very apologetic throughout the evening & kindly offered us dessert as a gesture of goodwill. While I appreciate their efforts to make things right, the food itself fell short of what we expected.

La nourriture était succulente. D'habitude les desserts en tendance à me décevoir & cela n'est pas arrivé. Je recommande vivement d'y aller. Le service peut être lent surtout s'il y a beaucoup de monde , mais ils sont attentifs aux besoins du client.

What an amazing dining experience! The food was absolutely delicious from start to finish, with every dish prepared perfectly & full of authentic Italian flavor. The ingredients were fresh, the presentation was beautiful, & every bite was memorable.

The service was equally impressive-friendly, attentive, & genuinely welcoming without ever feeling rushed. The staff went above & beyond to ensure we had a wonderful evening. Highly recommend!

I personally really enjoyed my fish (linguini scampi). It was rich & creamy & the scampi was fresh & not rubbery at all. I went for a party with some friends & two of them both felt sick after eating. One of my friends ordered the taglionini & they were soo salty she only had a few bites of her meal & had a stomach ache the rest of the night. The waiter had implied that this was one of the restaurants signature dishes which & it was disappointing. Another friend of mine ordered the carbonara & she enjoyed it much more, but similarly the dish was way too salty & hard to finish. For a restaurant serving $40 pasta dishes you can get better elsewhere. The waiter also tried taking away our octopus appetizer dish when there was still half of it left & didn't even ask before trying to clear the dish. Lastly, we had reservations at 8:45 that we made two months in advance & we didn't get seated until 20 minutes later. I had this restaurant in my list for a long time & after finally going, I wouldn't go back & wouldn't recommend it either.

Took the kids here on a Tuesday afternoon & it was honestly one of the easiest family meals we've had in a while. The staff were super welcoming & didn't bat an eye when my youngest made a mess of the table. We ordered the pasta & it was simple, fresh, & exactly the kind of food that pleases everyone without a fuss. We'll definitely be back, probably on our next low-key weekend when we want something relaxed without having to plan too much.

My partner & I decided to come back to Stellina after having a great experience 4 years ago. This time around we had a wonderful server Lisa, who was friendly & warm from the moment we arrived. Once I told her I had a nut allergy she double-checked with the kitchen & told me everything I could eat safely. Her recommendations for appetizers & bottle of red wine were delicious. Lisa's great service was highlighted by the rest of the staff who ensured our glasses were always full & consistently checked in to ensure we had everything we needed. A huge thank you to Lisa for making our anniversary celebration memorable, with great service & great food.
