Honestly just not great. This was about our 4th and last time coming here. I do not understand what flavor profile they were trying to achieve with the fusili squid ink pasta it was a mess. Could barely get through 4 bites of it before throwing in the towel, it's not how true Italian food is flavored which is usually pretty subtle but intentional. This was just an over-garlicked, over salted mound of pasta with cheap Parmesan. And my wife's red sauce tasted akin to tomato paste. Hate to say it but I've had better pasta at olive garden. Furthermore I asked to see which limoncello they were serving and it's literally the cheapest limoncello you can buy at the liquor store for like $8/ bottle. That says all you need to know about their standards these days, used to be a lot better!

Ordered the meatballs, spaghetti arrabbiata, and steak gnocchi. Meatballs were very bland - drenched in mashed potatoes and butter with no seasoning. The pasta in the spaghetti was really mushy and fell apart when you picked it up with a fork. Ordered the steak as medium rare and came out very well done.
The service here is excellent. Our waitress is extremely friendly and checked in with us an appropriate amount of times. She was honestly the best part of our experience here.
Will be skipping on this restaurant next time visiting this neighborhood. If you are going to eat here, make a reservation ahead of time.

Everything was perfection! Whipped Gorgonzola appetizer was so delicious, as were our pasta entrees and desserts. A truly special meal for a special occasion.

This was a disappointing experience. I’d been excited to check this place out but it did not live up to expectations. We were seated on the “back patio” which is a complete 180 from the ambiance of the front of the restaurant. Service was pretty unfriendly and a lot of the food was cold or simply not good. Bolognese tasted and looked like it came from a can, and the burrata appetizer seemed like it had been made a while ago. In addition to all of that, we were seated directly next to a huge birthday party table where kids were running around and screaming so we could barely hear each other. I really wanted to like this place but unfortunately cannot recommend it. Price and quality do not match up here.

We went to Stella’s for my birthday dinner and the kitchen made a mistake with our meal, the staff was so kind and respectful when we brought it to their attention. It was some of the best customer service I’ve ever had! The food is amazing too, but the people make the restaurant special!

We had a horrible experience here last night. We had a reservation and were seated 20 minutes late. Hardly ever saw the server. They brought the wrong order out to our table. Then actually forgot about our order. They ended up comping our pastas but it was just really irritating. We were there for 3 hours and not by choice. I was excited to try this place but it was pretty disappointing.

One of the best restaurants I've been to in a long time!
The service was initially quite slow. It took over 20 minutes for our server to bring us water. Our pasta was very overcooked and the flavor was unpleasant. I was disappointed as this restaurant is in such a cute area and I enjoyed the outdoor seating

so cute and the food was incredible! I’m from the northeast and can be picky about Italian, but everything was delicious as well as interesting and different. The portions are pretty massive too, next time I’d probably plan to order and share. Get Italian soda 🥰

Great Italian food with a Euro feel. Have delicious GF options and HUGE portions. We got 4 different entrees and loved them all! Dessert menu is extensive.
