Overall, it's a nice, fun atmosphere. We came here for our 1-year wedding anniversary and probably won't be back

The food was interesting, but nothing left us feeling particularly satisfied. Also, when they ask for your allergies, list ALL of them. Because they leave some pretty key ingredients off their menu...

I can't have cured ham because I will have an allergic reaction, so I don't order things with ham in them, no big deal. The braised short rib apparently has some kind of cured ham in it, which was not at all what I would have thought. It was also covered in such a sweet, sticky BBQ sauce you couldn't really taste the meat...

The fresh pasta was the standout. Truly well made and tasy. Excellent flavors without being overwhelming.

Cocktails were all very good and felt unique in a way that feels like you can't replicate it at home

Also, this sounds kind of silly, but this is the first place we have been to for a very special occasion that didn't provide even a small little complimentary dessert or even a tiny thimble of champagne.

The audience of this restaurant is.. interesting. Started off with a mix of business folks and others out for a late night fancy meal, and then transitioned to a bunch of well-off college students in sweatshirts. They were well-behaved enough, just an odd shift to watch!

Lovely space for an anniversary dinner. The food is tasty with small but elegant portions, the staff is very nice, the wine selection is great and the space is modern and warm.
The front door was a little difficult to notice at first, but not hard to find.

Whoa!!!
Absolutely exceeded my expectations.  The service was fantastic and the food absolutely blew my mind, the staff was extremely courteous and friendly.  I didn't have to wait at all but I did come an hour before close on a Thursday night.  I had the seabass which was cooked to near perfection.  The drinks served by the bartenders were on par with the best drinks I've ever had or mixed myself.  The tiramisu was awesome and I highly recommend.
Overall all I can say is if you have the opportunity or have anything to celebrate I can't think of a better place to have dinner or drinks than Stella's Cucina!!

This restaurant has the best food and that is not an exaggeration ! Every dish is made with so much love, appreciation, and creativity that  you end up enjoying the entire experience ❤️ We loved the bread (literally the best bread ever!), appetizers and had three different kinds of risotto for the Primi followed by Secondi and every bite was mesmerizingly beautiful and super delicious ❤️❤️ The staff is super hospitable, nice, and always on their feet in ensuring you have the best time ever! The desserts were just as incredible ❤️❤️ Would highly recommend this place for date nights, friends and family get together as this 11/10 restaurant will ensure you are taken very good care of and have the best culinary experience 🥰🥰

Every time I visit Stella, I know the food is going to be incredible! I’ve tried a number of dishes but the ones I keep coming back to are the Cesar salad, the mushroom risotto and the fresh sea bass.

Beyond the food, the restaurant has such a cool vibe- mood lighting, a big open bar that sits at the center of the restaurant and a DJ playing fun yet subtle house music. Stella is such a gem!
