Went on a Saturday to celebrate my daughters birthday with a big group, they were very accommodating to us had a great table for the party of 12. This was everyone's first visit and ages from 24-85 and they had a great versatile menu something for all of us, I believe we all tried different dishes and all I can say is they're attentive staff and the food will definitely bring us back! A little on the expensive side that dinner for 2 was over $90 but that included the 20% tip which was fine but just a surprise at the end. read more

My daughter and I visited Stella's for the first time last night. The food was delicious but on the expensive side. $23.00 for a simple pasta dish was one of the least expensive main dishes on the menu. A salad was extra. I don't usually write a review but I think what had happened was tasteless. We received our bill and there was a surcharge on it. When I questioned it, the server stated that instead of increasing their prices due to increased food prices, they add a surcharge. Quite frankly, we should have been told prior to ordering that a surcharge was going to be added. To me, was tacky and unprofessional. In addition, just increase the prices so people know what they're paying for each item and update the menu. Don't throw an expense on someone after the customer commitment. read more

Kinda disappointed. The hostess and bartender were both inattentive and the food and drinks were only average. Probably won't go back

The meal was out of this world. I was with a group from Pittsburgh, PA. The first night I had the rib eye. It melted in my mouth. The owners, wait staff and chefs were all top-notch. Everyone in the group enjoyed their meals, whether stuffed tenderloin, penne pasta, scallops, flatbread pizza, Rueben sandwich, etc. There was not one complaint. It was so great, we knew we had to go back for a second go-round. I love beef but I try not to eat it that often. BUT I could not resist getting the tenderloin the second night. It was $49 and worth every penny. I can't remember the last time I had beef this good, not even at Ruth Chris' Steakhouse. I highly recommend. Then to top off the evening we had White Doves for dessert. The perfect ending to the perfect meal. This is definitely a place to stop and get a great meal and a have a good time. read more

Ordered the scallops. Tasty but must have had MSG in it. Very sick during the night. I forgot to ask server about MSG. Why do some restaurants still use MSG? It is carcinogenic and makes many people very sick. My husbands meal was very good, he said. Service was great. Would have given 4 stars except for the severe tummy ache my meal cost me. read more

The food quality has been degrading lately. Most of their pasta dishes have also been pulled from the menu.

This is DEFINITELY my favorite joint in Downtown De Pere. I have come multiple times for happy hour which is 2-6 M-F, and I've never been disappointed. They have also updated their menu and have amazing choices. TRUFFLE FRIES ON FLEEK! Thankful for this great establishment. Can't say enough great things, owners are super personable as well. Paco and the man with a man bun is also an added bonus to this joint! read more

Was wonderfully surprised by Stella's. Highly recommend the pesto flatbread appetizer and the chicken piccata entree. Finished with the yummy coffee gelato and my daughter had a butterscotch dessert which she loved. Great ambience and excellent service. Will be going again! read more

I have to say the atmosphere is amazing , the food I had an issue with what I ordered as I did not like it. Presentation was great services was great I just did not like the dish as it was not my thing. My wife did like it so it was good just not for me. The thing that got me to write the review was the owner he checked on all the tables in the restaurant and asked us how ours was. I was honest and told him the chicken and waffles they served were just to sweet. He was very respectful and offered to get me something else or even a dessert, but I declined as my wife and I share both our meals. The owner was respectful and listened, just because I did not like it doesn't mean it's not good. The owner put this place to 5 stars and the old fashion slush. read more

This was one of the best restaurant experiences I've ever had! We came in and the owner immediately greeted us and seated us. He asked us our names and where we were from. He took the time to get to know us and even remembered our names throughout the night. The service was fast, the drink menu had great craft beer selections, and the food menu is creative and well priced for the quality. We started with a bowl of the French onion soup and it was spot on. Very flavorful and the cheese was hot and melty! We also had the bruschetta for an appetizer. 6 pieces piled high with bruschetta and a slice of fresh mozzarella. Wow this was great. The balsamic glaze is fantastic. My wife ordered the alfredo. I'm not an Alfredo fan but I couldn't stop eating her pasta. The fresh spinach in it provided a great addition to the sauce. I ordered the sausage and pepperoni flatbread which was spot on and a side Caesar salad which was also great. The sauce on the flatbread was homemade and the crust was crispy. The Caesar dressing tasted homemade and excellent. Overall this was a fantastic experience and we will definitely recommend to anyone coming to the area. We wish we could move this restaurant next to our house back in Des Moines! read more

My wife and I had dinner here recently, and will certainly be back! I ordered the seared scallops and mushroom fried rice, and it was absolutely fantastic! My wife had the Pork Belly with Brussels Sprouts and corn bread which was equally as good. The menu is a very refreshing change of pace from the standard offerings from most eating establishments. Staff was very professional and knowledgeable, and service was top notch. Stella's now has two new regulars! read more

Went for brunch and had high expectations as I've eaten here before and it has been very good. But nothing is grosser than cold poached eggs over soggy, cold hash browns and partially thawed "lobster" pieces covered with cold, tasteless hollandaise. Nothing was seasoned and it was a congealed blob of no taste. Bloody Mary's had no flavor either. Bummed read more

Very nice experience at Stella's. Wonderful service and the food is great. I would highly recommend the Braised Short Ribs, this is one of the best I've had in the area. Melt in your mouth beef, with a bed of spinach and a wonderful sauce. The meatballs were to die for as well. Tender, served with spaghetti and lightly sauced. Whether you are a meat lover or vegetarian, there is something wonderful for you. read more

Cool place. Love the atmosphere. Cozy. We sat in the bar with doors/windows open to outside. They also have seating on the warm patio out back, in the restaurant and in the bar. Service always very good. Food very good! I've had several menu items all very good. And they carry my favorite wine! Manager owner walks around and is very friendly. Love this place! Highly recommend! read more

Got carry out over the weekend and it was fantastic. Burger melted in your mouth and 2 flatbreads were amazing! Keep up the great work!

We have gone here several times and it is freaking fantastic. The food is great. It is fine dining in a casual relaxed atmosphere. They have a great brunch with great cocktails. The patio is awesome and this has become our new go to place to eat. read more

Had my first experience at Stella's this past weekend and it was delicious! I went with a group of about 10 ladies and all of us finished our plates. I had the "Vodka linguini" and i could get enough. Service was outstanding and atmosphere is calm and relaxing. read more

Last minute idea to try this restaurant. Went for a good glass of wine and even though we didn't get much help on picking wine, the bottle we did get was good. Also ordered the stuffed dates wrapped in prosciutto and it was absolutely amazing. Savory and delicious. The atmosphere was good for a Friday night. Will go back. read more

The atmosphere is charming and quaint. The appetizer Bruchetta was yummy. I also ordered Pasta Alfredo, which had almost zero sauce and zero taste. It tasted like buttered noodles. The presentation was lovely, but that's where the food experience ended. This is always what I worry about with places that boast "modern flair" to their food. Beautiful presentation, zero taste, and high price. I had fun as they had live music, but I wouldn't return unless I didn't plan on eating. read more

First time at Stella's, the food was delicious and the service, Phil, was awesome! Brandy Old Fashion desert was fabulous! Started with the Brussels sprouts, scallops with fried rice, shrimp and pasta. We will definitely be back! read more

Wife and I decided to stop by for a date night without the kids and we both had a great experience. Great environment, our waitress was excellent, and food was delicious. I had mushroom fried rice with scallops and my wife had fried asparagus. The meal selection / menu size and drink selection was just right. All in all, wonderful experience, we will definitely will go back. read more

I found this place to be over priced. We had reservations and I thought it was strange, we were the only ones there. It took almost an hour to get our meal. I had a Caesars salad that was meager to say the best. My main coarse was a small piece of chicken laying in a red watery assortment of olives, spinach, and a few things resembling small tomatoes. It lacked an Italian flavor. The whole time I was there, I kept thinking of Olive Garden. Personally, for the price, I wouldn't go back. The couple we were with felt the same as us. read more

Loved the place. Very modern industrial feel in the dining room. Bar area warm. Food is always excellent. Sorry there was no meat ragu on our latest visit. Food is always flavorful. Chefs specials are inventive. We travel for more than 2 hours to eat there. Staff has always been friendly and helpful. We will be back! read more

My husband and I went to this restaurant following the recommendation of one of our friends. We had high expectations and were disappointed with our experience. Wait time was long, food was subpar. My husband had steak (he likes it rare) said it was dry and didn't have much for flavor. I had spaghetti and it was so spicy I could hardly eat it, I had to double check the menu as to make sure I didn't miss something, never had spicy spaghetti before. Overall just not worth the money spent. I gave this a 2 because we had a friendly waiter. read more

Visited a couple times. Helpful staff, never too busy. Solid menu with some really great options. Need to go more often, as I'm sure we can find a couple more favorites. read more

Ambiance is nice. Pretentious as a expected. Drinks are average in price. Ordered the lemon shrimp scampi $23 and the chicken Parmesan $18. Shrimp was ok, more than al dente pasta with no lemon or truffle flavor. Had a plastic aftertaste. The chicken parmigiana tastes like canned spaghetti with a fried chicken breast? Not worth $18? No salad or soup which would have made the long wait better. Our party of 6 agreed Olive Garden would have topped this experience and that doesn't say much! Would not return read more

Had an excellent meal tonight. The shrimp and grits was very tasty, and my mom loved her salmon. The waiter was very attentive, and the drinks were good. The old-fashioned slushie was yummy! Some of the dishes on the menu seem a little pricey, but it is an upscale restaurant, so I was not that surprised. We will definitely be back. Can't wait for outdoor dining! read more

We heard this restaurant had new owners so we wanted to try it. It was an hour wait so we cozied up to the bar. I was happy to see Meiomi Pinot Noir! Well a couple sat down next to us and started up a conversation with the bartender. They started talking about the drama with the staff and this person's not there anymore and this person's coming back and so on. I don't really want to listen to how the staff doesn't get along. Found out the gentleman at the bar owns the building. It just didn't feel like a conversation that needed to happen in front of customers. We were seated after about 45 minutes. We ordered the bruschetta which I thought was really good. I decided on the Pork Tenderloin with Apricot preserves on it and my husband decided on the stuffed tenderloin. I asked what the 1000 layer potatoes were and she didn't know so she went and asked and came out to tell me what they were. They sounded awesome so I asked for those instead of the fingerlings. My husband's meal was supposed to come with mashed potatoes. She left to put our order in and came back after a few minutes and said they were out of the 1000 layer potatoes. Now why wouldn't they have told her that when she asked what they were? Very strange! We got our food and I wasn't too impressed. The meat was really dry and honestly if you didn't get a scoop of the apricots, there was no flavor. The mashed potatoes were terrible. My husband never did get mashed potatoes but instead they substituted the fingerlings. I looked over at one point and noticed the kitchen string still wrapped around his steak. He asked if that was supposed to be there and she said no. She was a really good waitress though and did give us a discount on our bill. read more

This is the best Italian food in town. My husband and I were blown away with the alfredo and the spicy sausage dish, that and the price. Can't beat it! read more

First time visit and we'll definitely be back. Had three small plates and drinks...all exceptional. Great service and atmosphere too!

Ate here for my birthday last night and it was the most awful meal I've ever had. How do you screw up Italian? The sauce & pasta was like paste and the meatballs didn't even remotely taste good. Everyone at the table ate something different and not one of us enjoyed our meal. My pasta was underooked, to the point it was crunchy and dry. Not what a carbonara should taste like. I won't go back. read more

Out of towner who tried Stella's this evening and very happy I did. I ordered the chicken piccata based on my server's recommendation between a couple of choices I was pondering. It was fantastic, great balance of tartness and saltiness from the lemon sauce with capers. Will be on dining list of places to go the next time I have another trip here. read more
