Went for my Anniversary with my wife. The Wagyu meatball and the Lobster arancini were delicious. The wagyu meatbal was very tender and flavorful. Itis definitely big enough to share. The Lobster arancini were crisp on the outside and moist and tender on the inside. The Lobster filling in the arancini had shredded Lobster in it rather than chunks and had a mild Lobster flavor. The New York Strip from the specials menu was a bit tough. Not sure if it was the cut of steak ot because it was slightly under the med rare that I ordered. My wife had the Chicken vesuvius. That was absolutely delicious. The potatoes thar came with it had crispy skins with soft tender insides. The chicken was moist, tender, and very flavorful. The canke with the candles is their house made white chocolate mousse cake. This dessert is rich, flavorful, and decadent. It is one of my favorites on their dessert menu but in my opinion needs a cup of coffee or something with it to cut the richness. We also had the trio of Gelato. The flavors currently are hazelnut, chocolate, and vanilla. It is very flavorful and creamy. The chocolate has a flavor that reminds me of a fudgsicle. The hazelnut has a strong natural hazelnut flavor. It does not taste like an extract. The vanilla is light and clean. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and will be going back.

Great place for special occasions, business dinners, functions, or any occasion. There is so much on the menu to choose from. The food was delicious, and the staff was friendly and very accommodating. Constantly aware of your needs, from refilling your drinks. Excellent service, highly recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Delicious all around. We ordered the sea bass special and the risotto. Both were excellent. Drinks and sides also good

This is our first visit to Stefani Prime. I wanted to go for quite some time and it’s only about three miles from home. We decided to celebrate Mother’s Day on Saturday to avoid the crowds. What a great choice! They have complimentary
valet parking. Everyone we encountered was very friendly and professional. Our server was Carmen and she was top notch. We ordered drinks and she recommended the Calamari, which was perfect. We ordered two Filet Mignons with a Twice Baked Potato and Shrimp Diavolo. The meals were great. Decided to save some room for dessert, so we split a Creme Brulee and a Key Lime Pie. Again, the service was fantastic all around and I highly recommend Stefani Prime. I’ll be back soon.

Fun fact: The last picture below is the original Stefani’s which was located on Fullerton Avenue in Lincoln Park which I dined at when I was at DePaul University.

The meats are the stars. My 22 ounce rib eye chop with Gorgonzola topping was a dreamy dish. I sampled the veal chop which also was a 5 star performer. Twice baked potato good but not great. Same thing for the side salad – crisp and fresh but not worthy of 5 star billing. Deserts were tasty – my key lime pie was definitely made with key lines – and not overwhelmed by the graham cracker crust. The chocolate cake was massive – over a foot tall! We sat on the patio outside and enjoyed a mild summer evening with almost no noise. All in a superior experience.

The red wine fettuccine in the pasta cheese wheel was AMAZING! I typically don’t add chicken to my fettuccine but I did and it was excellent! My husband’s steak was also delicious. Our fantastic server, Vivian, recommended the bacon wrapped dates (appetizer special) and we loved those also. To add to our wonderful experience they brought out a complimentary slice of white chocolate cake with a birthday candle for my husband’s birthday. We will absolutely be back when we return to the area!

I’ve been to Stefani Prime before, and on previous visits the food was excellent and the customer service was top-tier. That’s why I was surprised by my most recent experience last week.

We were seated around 8:45 p.m. in the back enclosed patio, right next to an exit door and the utensil station. At first, I didn’t think much of it since the main dining area looked full, but there was definitely other seating available in the patio. We placed our appetizer and main dish orders about 15–20 minutes after being seated. The appetizers came out fairly quickly, but our main dishes didn’t arrive until over an hour later, about 15 minutes after closing. It honestly felt like our entrees may have been forgotten.

When the food finally arrived, my steak wasn’t cooked to my liking. The server and who I believe was the manager were apologetic and insisted on taking it back to fix it, which I appreciated. However, by that point it was already about 30 minutes after closing, and the restaurant had mostly cleared out. During that time, bus staff were repeatedly peeking into our area every few minutes, which made us feel rushed and uncomfortable.

That said, I do want to acknowledge that the server and manager genuinely tried to make things right by offering us a round of drinks and dessert, which was a nice gesture and appreciated.

Overall, this visit didn’t live up to the experiences I’ve had here before. I still believe Stefani Prime is capable of delivering great food and service, but this night felt disorganized and rushed, especially toward the end of the evening.

I’ve been on a hunt to find the best cookie skillet in the Chicago suburbs, and while the city has plenty of great options, it’s harder to find something on par out here. So, my friends and I have made it a mission to try cookie skillets at different suburban spots. Stefani Prime has been one of the top contenders so far. Their brown butter cookie skillet is absolutely delicious—perfectly gooey and flavorful, with a pretty decent size for sharing. It definitely stands out as one of the best we’ve had.

Along with dessert, we like to order something savory, so we tried the fries. Unfortunately, the fries were very average and nothing special, but the complementary bread they serve is really good, which helped make up for it.

The service was also pretty solid—no complaints there. The atmosphere is welcoming and warm, making it a comfortable spot for a meal with friends. Overall, I’d definitely recommend stopping by for the cookie skillet, especially if you’re on the lookout for a standout dessert in the suburbs.

Reservation was not honored, even though we confirmed the day before and arrive a few minutes before our time. We were treated as if we didn’t have a reservation. We were seated 38 mins after reservation time and being punctual; approximately 40 mins prior to closing. We patiently waited and observed others reservation times be honored. We inquired at the 20 mins mark and we were rudely told there are 6 more ppl ahead of us. That was a bit baffling. I’ve not ever experienced such poor management of being seated and poor service of a “fine dining” establishment requiring a fee if cancel. If we were late 38 mins they would have had every right to “fit us in” or not seat us at all. After being seated, we were rushed to place drink orders, we hadn’t had a chance to take our coats off before the waiter asked about drinks. Can we look at the menu first? We weren’t afforded the opportunity to enjoy our evening. The experience was awful. 0 out of 10 I would not recommend. To think I was so excited about experiencing this restaurant and its food, it was such a disappointment.

Upscale local restaurant. Perfect for special celebrations. Everything we ordered was delicious! Our wonderful server was very sweet! The valet parking was a plus. My husband definitely chose the right place to celebrate our 3rd wedding anniversary. Enjoyed every second of it.
