Trattoria Stella (Highlands)

“Me and my date got the d'aragona red wine with the foccia bread. Steak Gorgonzola she got something idk what. It was all amazing. Don't miss out on this gem”

“We've eaten here numerous times in the last 20 years and it is always so tasty. Be sure to save room for dessert (this is the rare place where I always get dessert because it's so good). The pastas are fresh and house made. I've tried many of their entrees and enjoyed them all. The appetizers are also worthwhile (though not at the expense of dessert) tomato bisque and carrot salad always a winner (with house made dressing). The wine list changes regularly, always offering lovely options by glass or bottle and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly.”

“Lovely location combined with a cozy feel to the atmosphere. I was very impressed with the quality and portions of food for the price point. The pasta itself felt as though it was just so well crafted compared to other Italian spots. To top it all off, I came to find out that this particular kitchen typically only utilizes 1 cook most weekdays. I found this to be extremely impressive given my experience. Would recommend to anyone who wants to get high quality entrees at a realistic price!”

“Trattoria Stella delivers uniquely flavored Italian food in a quaint atmosphere. But let’s start with the service. It was slow at the beginning but picked up appropriately after about 10-15 minutes. The server was friendly and did a great job. I enjoyed the real roses on the tables and the smaller and cozy scale of the split level patio. The food was mixed. The noodles on the spaghetti bolognese were cooked al dente and the sauce tasted homemade. The flavor of the lasagna was interesting and different. It didn’t hit our flavor palette in a particularly positive way. Overall, it was good experience and I recommend it.”

“My dad was a fan of the chicken pasta. My dish was not my cup of tea. Super loud and chaotic place. But liked by locals. I wasn’t hyped unfortunately.”
