Wasn’t busy on a Thursday night, quiet ambiance. Stella Notte Pizza was one of the tastiest and flavorful white pizzas I’ve ever had. And the Shrimp and Scallop Scampi exceeded my expectations. The seafood was fresh, large, and buttery. The broccoli was juicy and packed with flavor. 5 star dish. We liked the dessert tray they brought around, but the butterfinger cheesecake was a miss, seemed old/stale/previously frozen. Service was great.

Long time Italian restaurant very popular with the locals. I had the spaghetti bolognese with a meatball and it was very good. My companions had the cheese pizza which was excellent. I had a Carmel White Russian cocktail which was excellent. The Italian Lemon Coconut Cake was very good. Large menu available-appetizers salads soups pasta seafood pizza veal etc. Beer Wine Spirits available. First rate friendly and quick service.

Beautiful place! I suggest starting with pumpkin bisque on a cold day. We ordered chicken parm and chicken piccata- both were good, nothing too special. Serving was huge though!! Ended dinner with pumpkin cake and black forest cake

Andy was an amazing server both knowledgeable about the menu and incredibly professional.
The atmosphere was cozy and beautiful.
The food was absolutely incredible. I ordered the Shrimp Stella Notte and was floored by the flavors. My favorite part, though, was the bread and olive oil dip. Most places forget to add the Parmesan, herbs, and spices, but not Stella Notte. They nailed it!
Don’t skip this place, run to it and enjoy the food and the experience.

I recently visited Stella Notte with some friends and had an overall pleasant dining experience. Here’s my detailed review of this Italian restaurant:
Appetizer:
We started with the calamari, which was served hot and fresh. The texture was spot-on, with a lovely crispy coating, but I felt that it could have used a bit more spice to elevate the flavors. It was good, but just shy of being exceptional due to the lack of seasoning.
Drinks:
I opted for the Almond Joy Martini from their specials menu. While I could taste the coconut, I wished for a bolder flavor profile with more chocolate liqueur or almond liqueur. It was a fun, dessert-like drink but could be improved with better balance between its ingredients.
Pizza:
One of the standout dishes of the night was the Stella Notte Pizza. The crust was perfectly cooked—not soggy, but with crisp edges, exactly how a pizza crust should be. The ratio of cheese to sauce was perfect, and the sauce itself was rich and flavorful. My only critique would be that it could have used a bit more chicken, but overall, this was a great dish that I’d order again.
Pasta Dishes:
We shared two pasta dishes:
1. Chicken and Shrimp Stella Notte Pasta – This dish featured cheese tortellini in a creamy tomato pesto sauce. While the texture of the pasta was great, I found the flavor to be one-dimensional. It was creamy, but I didn’t feel compelled to take another bite right away.
2. Shrimp and Scallop Primavera – This was a special for the night. The dish was light and refreshing but lacked the necessary seasoning to make it truly shine. It was a bit bland, and I had to add salt and pepper to suit my taste. However, it was well-prepared with fresh ingredients.
Portion Size:
Portion sizes were generous, and by the end of the meal, we were all quite full. No complaints there!
Overall Experience:
The service was excellent, the ambiance was cozy, and most dishes were enjoyable. While there were a few areas where the food could have been slightly improved, the overall experience was good, and I’d give it a solid 4/5 rating. I would return, especially for that Stella Notte pizza!

I am very pleased with my special luncheon event on Sunday (1-17-2026). The festively-decorated glass-enclosed patio offered maximum natural light on this cloudy, winter day. Restaurant Host Dan Robinson made my planning easy with his well-thought-out brochure… and (— helpful in my case—) reassuring client coaching. He took care of everything, including ordering and presenting a really great cake for the honoree. Dan was flexible and accommodating. His proactive and attentive servers enabled the whole production to go smoothly and amicably. Stella Notte offered me great value and ambiance for my party, for which I am very grateful!

The food was okay with the mussels standing out. We ordered the seafood ravioli which was okay lacking some seasoning and the crab stuffed shells. The stuffed shell pasta was hard over cooked and it seemed that they just threw in shredded mozzarella and lump crab meat and put it in the microwave and out to serve. The service was okay didn’t really feel welcoming. As I left I told the waitress have a goodnight was met with a glare and no response. We also ordered their garlic bread was pretty solid. We ordered their cannoli, the filling was too sugary, grainy in texture and too thick. Not for my personal taste. We also ordered their pistachio cake and German cake and both were frosted too sweet and the cake was dry and falling apart as our forks cut into the cake. The ambiance was cute as they had lights and trees inside. I would try again but order something different to check if I have any changes in my rating.

Love this mom and pop feel Italian hidden place. The calamari and Veal Parm rocked. Saw some amazing looking desserts but we were too full! We will be making this a regular dining place.

The atmosphere is absolutely incredible. And the pizza was delicious! Avoid the mozzarella sticks. They’re the most generic cheap frozen brand on the market. For $12! When all your other food is good, maybe get something a little higher quality or make your own.

I wish I could give the service aspect 7 stars. 5 does not do it justice. I had Heather and let me tell you. The food was amazing but the service is what’s going to bring me back for seconds and thirds. I’ve worked in a restaurant before and Heather was everything you could want in a server.
I had the chicken parm and it was one of the best i’ve ever had. If you get the pleasure of visiting this establishment, i would 110% recommend her to take care of you. 12/10 overall experience.
