Stephano's has a huge party room perfect for any event. We just celebrated a birthday there with friends and family. We were each able to order our own entree from the menu. My husband ordered the Discovery of Italy dish and I had the chicken picada. I enjoyed my picada dish. My dish's portion was very generous and I had to take a to-go bag home. The service was a little bit slow that evening, but our group was huge! (At least 80 people or more!!!) If you're looking for a nice venue for family or business gatherings, check out Stephano's. They have a wonderful facility and good food. read more

I was craving chicken piccata and it was not what I was what I expected but the pizza looks amazing can't wait to try it!

I almost didn't go today (bc of the reviews) but I am so glad I did. The restaurant is lovely outside, the patio area is beautiful at night. We got sat right away and our server Jaime was great. There was a .25 cent each wing deal, we got 20 for $5. We got Calamari to start and also got a pizza & the Discovery plate. The food was great, the service was amazing, the place is beautiful, i'm not sure why there's so many bad reviews. I'd say, give it a try!!! read more

Very disappointed with our experience at Stefanos Brooklyn pizza in Harlingen. We ordered the 16 oz ribeye and about half of it was grizzle. When we complained about it our waiter disappeared and after several minutes of waiting a different staff member spoke to us but didn't do anything. Another staff member came by after a while who told us that the manger knew about it. The manager never came to our table. After another time of waiting the second staff member offered a free dessert. The issue could have been resolved quickly but it wasn't. There was a lot of waiting in between us speaking to different people. The manager who was walking around the restaurant never came to speak with us. It was a weird and unpleasant experience. Poor management. Poor conflict resolution. And the steak was awful. read more

Friendly and attentive staff, we were a pretty big party and they were able to accommodate us. The food was good and so was the dessert. I tried the cajun chicken pasta and some pizza. This is a restaurant worth trying ! read more

I recently took a trip to Harlingen, and I always like to try local pizza spots. Had a pizza and cheese bread delivered to the hotel and it was amazing. Perfect amount of cheese and sauce, crust was great. Cheese bread was good, too. Will definitely order next time I'm in town. read more

First time here after the initial building burned down. They did an amazing job with the building. It feels modern and well decorated. They had a large patio with a musician playing. Despite it being a pretty busy night with multiple reservations, we were able to get a seat for 6 with minimal wait. Overall they served you a large portion size and we all left full. Some of the pizzas were a little bland for my taste ( specifically the lasagna pizza) but enjoyed each slice. The cheesecake was a little small and needed more cheescake taste to it, but enjoyed it nonetheless read more

First things first. Our first time here, we went in the front door too get a table. No no no. Take out only! Go back outside and walk around the building to the back for dine in. It is a big room and very tastefully decorated. The kitchen has a large glass window so you can watch them toss the dough. Very cool! Our Server, Ivonne, was great. We ordered the fried mushrooms for an appetizer. They were actually panko battered fresh mushrooms instead of the frozen battered ones you usually get. They were absolutely delicious. We each ordered different 10 in specialty pizzas. A supreme and an Alfredo and both were really good. We'll be back. read more

Great happy hour during the week! Wonderful pizzas with lots of choices! Staff is always friendly and attentive! Lots of delicious Italian choices! Don't miss the tiramisu! My absolute favorite! Great takeout and delivery! read more

So easy to have a great time here, especially for large parties. The food was perfectly fresh, and for a packed house during grad weekend, they still served in such a timely manner! Each of our waiters were so helpful and attentive throughout the dinner, such sweet staff overall. So happy Stefano's made our celebration feel even more special! read more

Fried Ravioli came out cold and with too much marinara (as if they were trying to mask something). I ordered the Blackened Shrimp Cajun penne pasta and it too came out cold. Sauce tasted as though it came from a can. My daughter ordered Chicken Bow tie Pasta and it was cold as well. Salads that we ordered came same time as the meal. Garlic knots weren't ready and were served later (although they were stale) The service was pretty decent despite it being super busy. Notified a manager at the end and they comped 1 salad and gave us 15% off our meal. This is our first visit since the fire incident and don't think we will be back. Best part of the meal was the tea. read more

We will never go there again. Three of us dined. One had Smoked gouda chicken with mashed potatoes. The potatoes were cold. One had creamy chicken pasta. The chicken was tough and the sun dried tomatoes could not be chewed. I had eggplant. I don't know how they sliced the eggplant that thin. There were three rollers on the plate but only two had paper thin eggplant. It was inedible. I don't know what has happened to this restaurant.​ read more

21$ for two pastas and half a chicken breast, one fork of lasagna and no salad with entree anymore. Yall burned down and now want to burn down our wallets... horrible We didn't get the bruschetta or the mushrooms we ordered either read more

Had lunch today and Ali was our waitress. We were so impressed with the service as well as the quality of the food. We both took advantage of the $10 lunch menu and were pleasantly surprised at the nice size serving for such a reasonable price. We will definitely be back!! read more

I love the bar, drinks are great and Ali is so nice. However, twice. have ordered a Margherita pizza and instead of sliced tomatoes got canned tomatoes dumped in piles. So done with this place. They seem to be cutting corners. However, the tiramisu is fantastic. read more

I was shocked when I saw Stefano's only has 2.5 stars. We ate there for Christmas lunch. We had a variety of dishes including spaghetti and meatballs, Gouda chicken, ziti, panini, and a half-meat lovers half-margarita pizza. I also tried the Stefano margarita. We thought the food was great. Service was prompt and very courteous. We would go there again. read more

My family and I came in for dinner and were initially seated and served our drinks without issue. However, after waiting over 90 minutes, we still hadn't received our food. What made the situation more frustrating was that several tables who arrived well after us were served ahead of us. When we asked our server for an update, she explained that she had been trying to get in touch with her manager because the kitchen staff was giving her trouble about our order. We didn't request anything unusual--just standard items like pizza and pasta, which we saw being served to other guests. Overall, it was a very disappointing experience. We understand that restaurants can get busy, but the lack of communication and the way our order was handled was unacceptable. read more

The panini and the pasta Alfredo was so good. We order a small pizza to share and it was great. I love the open salon, high roofs and the lighting is very pretty. Now we did wait a while for our food but the waiter was on point with refills, napkins, plates and everything we needed. It is a nice ambiance but also super casual. read more

I want to love Stefano's but on out first visit to the new building, they just couldn't get it right. We were ushered to a bar table, instead of waiting for a table in the main dining room. Rarely did we see a waitress and the atmosphere in the bar didn't do much for me. Details were lost in the masses and the long wait for our pizza left us running late for a movie. Beautiful building for sure and the pizza was really good. Never got Parmesan or red pepper flakes. Hell, never got plates. Maybe try again in the fall. read more

It was Saturday, and I had a craving for some pizza. I decided to pop into Stefano's as this has always been one of my favorite spots in the RGV. Upon entering, I was greeted by their friendly hostess and seated quickly. I gotta say, I love what they have done with the place. The building is new and the environment feels upscale yet chill. Our server Michael quickly handed us the menu and asked how he could help. This was easy for me, an order of the pizza knots( $3 for 6), some lemon pepper wings, a pepperoni pizza for the fam, and a chicken parmigiana sandwich for me! The knots came out first we're gone as soon as they hit the table. We had to order a second order! Warm and buttery with a hint of garlic parmesan. Next the wings. Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I will say, I asked for some of their Buffalo sauce on the side and it made a huge difference when combined with the lemon pepper. The pizza and chicken parm sandwich were the last to come out. The pizza was hot and cheesy with wonderful flavor. The chicken parm sandwich!! Oh sweet goodness! It's like magic when you take the first bite and every time after that. I want to note that their beer selection is extremely diverse, and their sangria is awesome! Many thanks to our wonderful server Michael. One of the best customer service experiences I've had! Overall, Stefano's is my top choice Italian restaurant in the entire RGV. Make the drive and try it out!! read more

Ordered a Meat Lover Pizza to go and it was horrible. Not much meat and the sauce tasted awful. We threw it out. What happened Stefano's? I doubt if I will ever order pizza there again. read more

ĶWe have been there twice. I'm not in a hurry to go back. The first time was nothing like before. No salad or bread with entrée like before the fire.The second time, they seated us in the fair north corner. One in our party asked to sit by the window. This dumb statement can out of her mouth. This was the only table available. I looked around, and there must be over 35 tables in that room empty. Three small tables were occupied. she wouldn't move us. If it was just myself I would have just walked out. Food was ok but service person needs training. They need to do something about sound. Something to help absorption. By the time we left, the sound was so bad you couldn't understand the person next to you. read more

Really hate leaving this review, but I got really sick after eating here. Not trying to risk it again, so I will not be returning.

Poor. Couldn't get waited on in two visits. Both times the hostess seated us at a table without a waiter assigned . Both times we asked a staff member for help and they just disappeared. Complained to the hostess well leaving the second time. She didn't seem to care. Management should head down to Texas Roadhouse and OBSERVE. They no how to organize and train staff. read more

Understaffed, long wait times. Reasoning behind excessive wait times was "we had a couple parties order a lot of 30" pizza". If you're having trouble supplying it then don't provide it read more

Long wait time. Took over an hour and a half to get food and only after asking for the manager. Food taste horrible. Like frozen food. Took long to get greeted by server, not to mention to even get refills or the tab. read more

Hadnt been here since it reopened. Food is good. I tried the pepporoni pizza and the chicken alfredo pizza. Really good. Sangrias were good. Clay was the waiter and provided excellent service. read more

Worst customer service ever! Staff tried to convince me to pay for something I didn't order and then continued to tell me what I should order with attitude. Apparently my order was an inconvenience to a busy staff. read more

Been to this place before the fire and loved it, now even after the fire the food is in my opinion even better.

We went there last week there was 9 of us. One ordered make your own pasta with angle hair pasta, and was served a pizza, another one ordered and it was completely wrong, one order chicken on her pasta and got none, one ordered chicken on her pasta and it was so tuff she could not chew it. One ordered a margarita and all tasted it and no one could drink it because it was so bad. We ask to see the manager and waitress said he was busy. Everytime she mad a mistake she would tell us I'm sorry and walk away. When bill came she had them mixed up and had to redo do them 5 times. read more

The wait time was terrible. We ordered lasagna and it took over an hour to get our food. Then the lasagna was cold when we got it. Not coming back. Rather go to Little Caesar's and order bread sticks! read more

Anyone who thinks the pizza is "Brooklyn style" ain't ever been to Brooklyn. That's all I have to say.

Food was cold. Half the party didn't receive their food and finally took it in to go boxes. Victor was not helpful at all. W are still waiting for him to resolve the situation. Our waiter tried his best. Do not recommend it! Stay away! read more

We hosted a surprise birthday dinner for a good friend for about 30 people in attendance -about 35 showed up. Unfortunately, the space was extremely cramped, with chairs literally shoulder to shoulder. Saying it was a tight fit is an understatement. after all we were all grown adults. We were advised to place our cake, cards, and presents on one of the tables, which made us even more uncomfortable. Some birthday gifts were left on the floor, because there was no more room at the table. We requested an additional small table but were denied. Since it was too late to go elsewhere, we had to make the best of the situation. Without me knowing, some of our guests decided to sit at the next vacant table. A manager came to let them know that it was reserved for another party. I was called to say something to my guests. Embarrassed, I told the manager that if she, the manager , wanted them to leave - she would need to be the one that have to tell them. With plenty of empty chairs and tables in sight, she just walked away without saying anything to them. While the food and service was good, the lack of accommodation and consideration was unbearable. At the end, the "reserved" table never showed up. Frankly, I'm little disappointed to have to leave this review, but it was an honest one. read more
