    Wonderful food - meatball appetizer and sausage pasta main course! We also had the salad and the low country shrimp- delicious. Excellent service. Wonderful ambience- must go to place.

    5/21- Stella reopened recently for curbside pickup after closing for a period during the pandemic. The menu is small and perfect. It means the food is fresh daily. My wife and I each ordered the Salmon and loved every bite. The service was great as well. Tip generously!

    Decent ambiance for makeshift outdoor dining in the age of the coronavirus. Outstanding food. I had the eggplant entre' and it was top notch. Those who joined me had Salmon and Low Country Shrimp. They all raved as well. Service was adequate but the servers seemed a little over extended. That's what happens when you're busy. Stella never disappoints.

    We were a party of seven. Enjoyed incredible food with exemplary service. This place is not to be missed. Each entree was delicious and served hot. We recommend this restaurant without reservation but you will need a reservation Make this a do not miss dining spot at the shore.

    The food was outstanding and the service exceptional! This is a gem of a find and should not be missed on your visit to the shore! Clearly this family owned business takes great pride in their customer service and food preparation! Make your reservation now!

    I do not give 5 stars easily. This place was so good, that the conversation stopped so we could enjoy the food. The eggplant parmesan was the best I've ever had! We spilt that for an appetizer. I ordered the short rib for my entree. When I tell you this was slap your momma good, I'm not exaggerating. It's a small BYOB, about a 10 minute drive from the casinos. Totally worth checking out.

    We really enjoyed celebrating our 40th anniversary at Stella's. We shared two appetizers: a fabulous Caesar salad and mushroom toast with ricotta and a truffle drizzle. My sole with crabmeat & spinach was delicate and tasty. My husband's braised short ribs were excellent! The waitress was attentive and thorough. We highly recommend Stella's.

    Had the Fra Diavolo special and a Cesar salad. The food was fantastic!!!!! The best Iโ€™ve had in the area. The waitstaff were great and made sure that everything was perfect! Canโ€™t wait to go back again!!!

    We ordered mussels as an appetizer. They never came. When our entree came, I mentioned weโ€™re still waiting for the mussels. They girl shrugged. The waitress came over and asked how everything was. I said we ordered mussels and never got them. She unapologetically said I never ordered them . My husband who is hard of hearing said he eve heard me order them. Not pleased with the arrogance. I was even going to buy one of theirshirts. Donโ€™t need it now!! Addendum The owner/ manager , Vince has since called me to apologize for our bad experience. He was very gracious and apologetic. So we are going to definitely give Stellaโ€™s another chance as this was our first bad experience there. Vince reassured me that they are really trying to maintain an impeccable reputation and give their customers the best service.possible They were short handed that evening and deserve another chance. So I will give them that as this has been one of our favorite restaurants for the past few years. Adding a couple stars to my review for Vince reaching out and caring. Will write new review after next visit.

    We enjoyed our visit to Stella. Great food, nice atmosphere, and fair prices. If you are in the Atlantic City area, this is a gem!

  • 5/5 Sean M. 1 year ago on Google
    The atmosphere was so cozy and chill. Music was perfect and just loud enough to hear it but not too loud where it made it annoying. Service was great and the food was amazing. Perfect portion size and cooked to perfection. I had the chicken and my wife had the short ribs and those choices were perfect. So glad we decided to come here for our anniversary.

    We just got curbside take out (salmon) - not only was the food fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious, but they kept curbside pick up safe and easy. Venmo and cash options, and they brought food out to us. Would have attached a picture but devoured too quickly! Will be back soon, thank you.

    Food was excellent. A little mishap with the server but they reacted really well. Need to upgrade glassware and silverware. We will gladly go back in the future.
