Reviews
Stopped in for lunch at Stefano’s and wow — this place knocked it out of the park. The Meatball Sub “Grinder” in the photo says it all: fresh, toasted bread, generous portions, rich homemade sauce, perfectly melted cheese, and that classic Italian comfort-food vibe you just don’t get from chain restaurants.
Every bite tasted like it was made with care and quality ingredients. The balance of flavors was spot-on, and the portion size was more than satisfying for a lunchtime meal. You can tell this is a locally owned spot that takes pride in what they serve.
If you’re looking for authentic, delicious Italian food with that “made-from-scratch” feel, Stefano’s is a must-visit. This was hands-down one of the best lunches I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommend — and I’ll definitely be back!
Very helpful
Disappointment : my wife order the lunch chicken tortellini it was not the best she had but it was okay rate 5 out of 10 to bland not enough flavor
As for me I order the chicken breast piccata
Pasta was okay but the chicken marinated in the white wine to much over load on the wine every bite you just taste the wine
Was very disappointing it was not like I had when I ordered in Myrtle beach at the hot tomato every bite was juicy and can taste the wine but the butter and the wine was spot on. Maybe take advice and ease off the some of the wine and add more flavor to the plate . As a food critic I rate this plate a 4 out of 10
Below you’ll find a full review with elements to love and a couple of areas of improvement.
What’s to love?
1. Did I mention the huge portions? I mean huge portions. We did not get any of the sandwiches, but they served one of them, and I snapped a picture as it was going by.
2. The service is excellent. Unfussy but always quick to refill the water or bring more bread.
3. As long as we’re talking about the bread. This garlic dipping sauce for the bread was garlicy. In all the right ways! And they were quick to refill it.
4. Inexpensive wines
What areas could they improve upon to make this a five star experience?
1. A few more wines on the wine list would be great. Lots of big bold reds would make sense in an Italian restaurant, and maybe even offer something like a carafe of house wine, like a Chianti.
2. The bathroom was very small. In fact, both times I was in the bathroom, people were mentioning how small it was. That’s how teeny it is. It’s a large restaurant, so it would be nice to have a few more stalls in the bathroom! And as I say that, I recognize it’s very tricky to upgrade in an existing building.
3. I think my big complaint is that my Arrabbiata pasta was too spicy. I have had this pasta many many times, and I love the spice, but in this case, the spice completely overwhelmed the other flavors. I don’t know if they were just accustomed to using the same recipe or if the chef that night had a heavy hand with chilies, but usually this dish is nice and spicy but not so spicy that I’m gulping water. And, in this case, I was gulping water. Also keep in mind I have a Very high tolerance for spice, and I still thought this was a bit too spicy. So just a note to perhaps cut back on the chilies (a wee bit) in that particular pasta, although I know that pasta is known for having spicy flavor profile and the name literally translates to angry.
This will be a nice regular stop when we are coming and going to the beach, and we will try one of the huge sandwiches next time.
Whether you’re planning a catered event or just looking for a perfect night out, this place delivers every time. The service is top-notch, and the attention to detail makes every experience memorable. Highly recommend for anyone who loves amazing Italian cuisine!
