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.

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.

Only downside was that it was very loud

Service started out great but we had multiple people attending to us which made it difficult to know who to ask when we needed something. I prefer to have 1 server per table. The hosts were so sweet & accommodating even when we needed to modify our reservation time last minute. The ambience is great - but the tables & chairs felt a bit flimsy which I found odd. The food was pretty good. The bone marrow pasta was touch dry, but still delicious. The potato tortellini was so rich, but I really enjoyed it. Others claim the portions are small but I felt they were fine. There aren't many options for vegans, but there are some for vegetarians! The highlight was the tiramisu! I don't normally like it, but my friend really wanted it so we gave it a try & this is a dessert I would eat over & over again! Great wine selection.

We always have a delicious meal here. It's definitely on the pricier side but honestly never disappoints. All of the pasta are incredible but the carbonara & tagliolini with buffalo butter are highlights!
