We were really happy that we came to Stella’s during our short trip to the area. The ambiance was great with a great view of the ocean. Service was wonderful. And they had a live sax player playing music, which was nice entertainment. We ordered bruschetta and calamari to start. The lobster and shrimp ravioli was amazing (this was a special). We also got the chicken Parmesan, and the chicken was so tender. We were staying at the Ritz-Carlton down the street, and we honestly received more attentive service and had a better experience here then at the Ritz. Thanks Stella’s ☺️
A nice Father's Day dinner at Stella's. We ordered a bottle of Austin Hope to start with the eggplant appetizer and bread. My wife had a tequilla and club soda with limes. Jameson our waiter was very professional and listed the specials as well. I had a wonderful pasta dish with grilled chicken and my wife had the swordfish special. Such a delight. We finished the evening with coffee and pistachio cheesecake with vanilla bean gelato...oh so good. The musician is amazing and plays the saxophone all night and takes requests. Highly recommended
We had a large party of 17 on a Saturday evening. The staff at Stella's could not have been more accommodating. They welcomed us warmly and gave us outstanding, responsive service. Food, service, sax music and atmosphere was just wonderful. I didn't hear a single complaint from our group. Everyone really enjoyed the evening and was very impressed with Stella's. This is my new favorite Italian restaurant. Vegetarian options: We had 4 vegans in our group and they had no trouble finding menu options they liked. Kid-friendliness: We had a 10 year old's birthday to celebrate The staff served the cupcakes we brought and the Sax player seranaded our nephew with happy birthday. He loved it.
