Reviews of Stella (Restaurant)

Daniel Woolever

Loved it our server chase was awesome

John Hoang

OMG! Could You Please not have a choir ruining my Sunday brunch?! Otherwise the food and service are top notch. Go here any other day besides Sunday if you want a quiet and nondistractful environment.

Ty Phillips

My fiancee and I went in for brunch. They were able to adapt the carbonara to be a vegetarian dish, which she enjoyed thoroughly. I had the "green eggs and ham", a dish with prosciutto and over-easy eggs topped with an herb sauce. Delicious They also have espresso drinks, and a bloody Mary bar featuring their in-house mix. Good stuff, but heavy on the horseradish

Sean Hall

My wife and I greatly enjoyed brunch at Stella. The food is delicious. The service is great. But the coffee, it's as smooth and rich as I have ever had. The Lavazza Italian brand coffee is magnificent. Can't wait to go back for a Saturday brunch at Stella.

Robert Hunt

Fantastic brunch. Great service. Very fair prices.

Kerrie m

We had a group of 6, everyone disappointed but one. We tried each dish at the table. Small dishes, pricey, smaller menu selection. This place was not for us and will not go back. Waitress was informative and attentive.

Douangsavanh Barrett

Wood oven pizza is very good we have so far tried the veggie pizza and the Italian meat pizza. The pastas my husband and daughter had were good my husband had the wild boar & my daughter had the shrimp putanesca. I had the chicken piccata which seemed more like parmesan chicken, which I found strange I didn't like it. Overall service, pizza, and 2 out of 3 pastas we're good.

Malena Putnam

One of my favorite Midtown spots for an intimate dinner. Love their pasta dishes & good wine list. Brunch is delicious, too.

TJ Corredine

Stella was stellar!! What a fantastic date night! Rosi our server was wonderful!! The beer, the wine and the food were all phenomenal!! The baked Brie is like no other, and the fall menu is perfect!! Highly recommend this shining star in Midtown!

Ashok Bhusal

Over priced food. Ordered the roasted half chicken. Only the skin tasted good. Inside was not marinated well. It was tasteless. Waitress dropped my bread on the floor and never bothered to bring another one. Pasta amount was very less. I can’t believe there wasn’t atleast a side salad with such expensive entree.

David Hanks

The pizza was great and the service was spectacular

Lynda Mobley

Stella is locally owned and well managed. Cuisine is contemporary Italian food. Located in Midtown.

Deana Wallace

Shimp fettuccine was superb.

Vivek Kannan

Simply amazing place. Loved the contemporary setting. Food was great and the service was quick and efficient. Really liked it. Would definitely go back again.

Phil Ledbetter

Food was great, service good, prices not too bad. No complaints other than maybe an expanded menu.

Sheridan Conrad

Isaac was a fantastic waiter! I will ask for him again and again. Food was great as always.

Charlene Styers

Great space, service, food and presentation

Kenya Lane

The chicken lasagna was great

Gay Jessup

It was ok...busy...waitress not really interested in my table..or cared about my experience. Food ok got bruschetta app and 2 different pastas ...meh not inspired by either. Probably won't go back.

michael dyer

We made a reservation and arrived early. We were greeted and told our table would be ready in just a few minutes. After being seated our waiter Isaac took our drink orders while we perused the menu. The menu is not large but each dish is well planned. After dinner about half of the table ordered dessert. The Apple dish was not warm, however the Stella bar dessert was delicious.

Sandra Kirk

I love this place. The food is outstanding and the staff is fantastic. They have a great wine list. They also make wonderful and consistent cocktails.

Daniel Lay

Very detailed environment. Friendly staff. Innovative menu. If possible, get the Stella Candy Bar for desert. Wow.

Judith Sanders

Great food and cozy atmosphere! Service was good also.

Mike Gaming

Terrible italian food. I came here from new york which everybody knows has great authentic italian food. The food is average not italian worthy of it being named that. You cant differentiate something on the menu and pizza is only personal size and not group size which is terrible. The waiter was literally dead inside. No personality. Not to mention 17 dollars for a personal pizza ! Thats ridiculous.

Matt Fard

WARRING: Avoid this place at all costs. My wife was served uncooked chicken, the staff and manager handle it very poorly. I just hope we don't end up in the hospital. picture is after they tried to re-cook the same piece of chicken unsuccessfully and made a rubber chicken for $21.

John Martino

My favorite Italian in OKC. Chef Melissa is the best.

Jarahmy Fletcher

No real hype. You would think with all these good reviews it would be pretty awesome place! Unfortunately not.

Kelly Mounce

WoW! Came here with husband for Valentine's day. You know how you make the reservation and get dressed up and then show up at the designated time...and then have to wait 30 min? Not here. The best thing about this was we walked in, gave our name and got a table, just like that! It was chilly in there with the AC on. We had the italian meats pizza that had just the right amount of spice. Husband had the wild boar bolognese and I had the braised short rib pasta. AND OMG THE MASHED POTATOES. I would like to have a bucket of these and I would eat them at every meal. Everything tasted amazing, perfectly cooked. Our server was fantastic and very professional, but also personable. We will absolutely be back, soon...

Abbey Toombs

This place was great! We went for lunch, and the menu had plenty of variety in choices without being overwhelming. The food was delicious, portion sizes on point, and service was quick. It was clean and modern with great ambiance. I can't wait to go again!

Jeff Vercelli

Not only a great restaurant, very good food, but a San Franciscan feel amidst Midtown which has a great contemporary look and lots of other food.

Shane Bowman

Excellent Customer service and Fabulous food. Definitely a must try.

Susan King

Great wait staff..limited menu...lacks a bit of atmosphere.

Joe OConnor

They have service and food to match, wonderful

KT Hunter

Fantastic food and wonderful staff! Allison is an asset, and she took great care of us. She listened and she made us feel very welcome. It was our first visit, but it won't be our last. We'll be requesting Allison!

carlos Perez

The food was incredible..now one of my favorite places. Nice selection of beers and drinks. Food was really savory.

Skyhawk the Mantis

Only ate here twice but my goodness...that Korean BBQ dish this place had back in like 2015 or 16 with the cheese polenta was amazing, to the point I still think about it now. I also got drunk on too many margaritas. Would do again and more intensly on a bigger budget.

Jill Peters

The wood fire pizza is always delicious as well as entrees. The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming. Nice wine selection.

Marcy Roll

They no longer have umbrellas for the patio

Jennifer Gold

Was very good. Loved it.

H Norman

the food was really great and our waiter (issac) was really nice. it was also decorated really nicely. also, the prices were reasonable. if your thinking about coming here you definitely should and it’s really worth it.

wlam4321

Really nice place nice atmosphere and ambience, staff was attentive and nice and the food was delicious (try the tomahawk pork chop)you won't be disappointed!

Matthew Montes-Valdivia

Incredible food and amazing service, besides the staple dishes that never disappoint, the seasonal menu is always on point. Beef short ribs and wine will always be my go-to. Hands down my favorite restaurant in Oklahoma City!

David Hanson

Great brunch, friendly service

Brian Davis

Loved the dining experience here. The Bison Shortrib and Smoked Chicken Lasagna are the stars of the menu. I loved how we weren't rushed and was allowed to dine at our own pace. If I could rate this place more stars I would. Definitely put this place in your checklist of OKC eats to try!

Samuel Douglas

Ok food pricey for ok food. Intriguing menu but nothing that would make me return.

Kimberly Marshall

Food was fair. Wait staff snotty. Atmosphere was nice.

josh rich

Stopped in for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by some amazing Italian food. Perfectly cooked noodles finished in a flavorful cream sauce that was topped with some delightfully crispy chicken. Well worth a visit.

Hasmitha Ramakrishnan

Great service and good food. Wish they had more options for vegitarians. The apps are on the heavy side. But I still like it

Dallas Croft

Open Sunday for dinner. Wild Boar Bolognese was awesome.

Lyle Kiser

Food that is flavored not overpowered.

Brett Seiger

I love this

Lea Osceola

Nice vibe. Great staff.

Pam Fitz

Unique menu. Very good food and service!

Beddamade

The food was just like the service, AWESOME!

Rory Taylor

My lady friend and I went here on our first date and just came back for our one year anniversary. The roasted half chicken was quite possibly the best thing I’ve ever eaten. Waitress was very polite and knowledgeable. Wonderful dining experience all around.

Charles Seibel

Nice bar and good Italian food.

Huda Mussa

Every time I visit Stella, I get a first class reception from the staff and Lori , the owner

King James Palmer

Great food, great service.

Nicole

Very very pricey with very little selections. Our waitress was OKAY. I would not recommend this place mostly because of the food. There was very little to choose from, and what I did order was not worth the price.

Kenna Agpoon

I give this place 5 stars for sure!! We went here Labor Day weekend with friends to celebrate my birthday, and everything was phenomenal. The server was so attentive and friendly, the food was delicious, the atmosphere was relaxing and best of all- they gave us a free dessert in honor of my birthday!

Bettie Reinhardt Shepherd

Food pretty good. Noisy. Mix your own drink bar.

Wendy Richardson

A nice place for birthday party. We loved our pizza

Wayne Border

Good food, good service.

David Shirley

Classy, unique food, great service.

Jacque Forbes

Great food.

Otah Armstrong

Stella's is moderm and excellent. Their menu always has something exciting to try. Don't skip dessert. The desserts are sooooo good.

Kitty Smith

Very good food,wine and service

Olivia Galbraith

I took my mom and grandma here for lunch on mother's day. The place was quite busy, but we were seated immediately, even though we were about 10 minutes early for our reservations. Our server was kind, attentive and knowledgeable of the menu, which I always appreciate. The food was delicious. My mom had the potato leek waffle with chicken, and she declared it the best meal she has eaten at a restaurant in a very long time! The prices were extremely reasonable for the quality of the food and service, and the venue. The decor in the restaurant is absolutely gorgeous. We will definitely be going back!

Lisa Johnson

This place had a great vibe. I ordered the roasted vegetable pizza and my daughter ordered the heirloom tomato basil pizza. I'm here to testify, both were delicious. Seriously, we both couldn't stop eating. It was so good. Sorry no picture. We sorta dove right in.

Nikki Gustine

Excellent food, great atmosphere, but the service was slow at times, and the food was slow to arrive. The server did comp us a free dessert to make up for the wait. This is a very nice-but-not-snooty restaurant with a lot of creative “cooking show” style menu items. If you’re eating fancy on a budget, be sure you clarify the item prices, especially on the salads. They have some tasty items on the a la carte menu for $4-$7.

Deb Norton

Food was excellent. Good service.

Chelsey

Nice spot for brunch, breakfast pizza was good but definitely regret not getting the bison steak and egg special. Mimosas were cheap and they have a variety of juice to choose from. Want to go back for dinner sometime.

Jade Daggs

Interesting Italian food, and friendly atmosphere. This was an incredible date night with my then boyfriend and now husband.

Jayme Buzard

Great Food! Loved the tenderloin steak. My daughter loves the chicken scallopini. Definitely worth it.

Rob Winder

Well, the place looked very nice in a nice part of the city. The staff was friendly and they have indoor and outdoor seating. The food was good but lacked depth of flavor even though some higher end ingredients are used such as shaved parmesan and wild boar in the bolognese. But as I entered I was met with an odd smell I could not place. As we were seated and walked by the bar to a nice nook I was met with a second odor, a strong smell of bleach. It is difficult to enjoy food when there is overpowering odors throughout the place. Looks great but fell short. Prices are a bit high for the actual portions and flavor.

Brenda Ramirez

There food is delicious and the service is great! I absolutely love the location in Midtown district.

Rachel Watters

Waitress and cheese plate was the best part of this visit. The chicken on my pasta was dry, the Alfredo was over cooked and separated. Overall, the food was sub par, especially for what you pay for it. I can say the service was outstanding.

Matthew Chellew

Delicious lunch options, wonderful bread as a starter. Priced well. Dedicated parking is limited but suitable for the size of the business. Only wish they'd offer Dr. Pepper!

omayra

The Food and dessert was absolutely incredible and the service was really exceptional. It's a beautiful place with an amazing atmosphere. Can't wait to go back to try many more dishes.

Eric K Smith

The Tomahawk is a masterpiece!well worth a visit!

Erin Gagnon

Friendly staff, great service, delicious food

John Lehto

Splendid place for date night. Everything was fantastic. Highly recommend this place especially if you are in the mood for some modern twist on Italian food.

Ruben Cruz

Great service, great food.

Bob Recker

Brunch for 12, good service, interesting variations on Italian cuisine with some intriguing non-Italian items, such as chicken and waffles. Full bar, wine list. Reasonable prices.

Truss Robinson

Disappointing. Our first choice appetizer 86'ed. My wife's first choice for her main was 86'ed and her second choice, the smoked chicken 'lasagna', really couldn't be considered a lasagana - more like a chicken and cheese casserole. My main, the Wild Bore Bolognese, had the thinnest, wateriest sauce I've ever had on a Bolognese. Once all that was done and over, the first recipet they brought out was over charged by $12.50 - when I asked, he reached for my card and said it would be taken out when they ran the card... Sorry, I didn't trust it at that point and requested they rerun the ticket with the correct price. With all of that being said, the food wasn't BAD, it just wasn't great. Had this been a $10&under restaurant, I'd shrugged any and all of these things off, but for the prices they charge, it made for a really disappointing experience.

Rick miller

Great food, loved the charcuterie plate.

Harold Penner

I got the chicken lasagna and really enjoyed it. The sweet after meal was like super strawberry shortcake.

Annalisa Wilson

Great food, nice place to socialize and have a cocktail

kayley Pratt

Their salads are the only vegan option, save for maybe pasta with red sauce. They do have a lentil burger on the menu, but unfortunately the aioli and the brioche bun cannot be substituted at all. This is really unfortunate because there's a vegan option right there, if it could be modified. However, the salads are fresh. Just make sure to order without cheese! I ordered mine without the goat cheese and it still came out with the cheese on. They brought me back another that was cheese-free. The lunch salad was $13 and not very big, but it was good. Overall, this restaurant doesn't seem very conscious of vegan options, alternatives, and modifications, but the service was great. With the vegan and plant based options becoming available in OKC, I really encourage Stella's to be more flexible!

Butterffinger5678

The crew at Stella are marvelous. They always have been very courteous and prompt with their service. The food is very tasty and chef Melissa is fantastic! The menu offers a wide variety of tastes and textures that please the palate. I definitely recommend this restaurant, especially for a nice date. And they have a patio now as well with a fire pit!

Kate Mohr

Chicken scallopini (sp?) was delicious

Stacey B

Great food & great service. Great place for lunch with friends (you can hear each other talk), or great for date night.

Robert Martin

Food was wonderful if you're looking for real Italian go to this place

Joyce Foltz

.They aim for the unusual. Do not serve traditional Italian.

David Urmie

Love the service here! Food is excellent. Atmosphere is always great.

Anna

Slow service and disappointing quality of food. We came during lunch hour but the restaurant wasn't full by any means, yet we had to wait for a while to order. I ordered grilled calamari which was listed as a main course. However, the amount of calamari in the dish was barely enough for an appetizer. And the amount of sauce it was swimming in made it basically a soup. The sauce was acidic and excessively spicy, effectively blocking the taste of the calamari. The acid and pepper is all I could taste. Very disappointed. My friends liked their tortellini, so I guess some food is alright. But my experience was not satisfactory.

Terry McCorry

Great cheese board. 4-5 cheeses plus toast points, salad greens, berries and honey. YUM! Ended with lemon ricotta cheesecake. Delish.

Joseph Meredith

Amazing coffee and great service.

Vicki Abbitt

Wonderful food and great service

Janice Batts

Good food and service

Hannah Haussermann

Amazing food and drinks the wait for our food was a little long but it was worth it. The owner and staff were amazingly kind and tended to our every need

Kari King

Lovely place. The staff was welcoming and knowledgeable. The service was fabulous. I enjoyed a unique cocktail and delicious meal!

Robert Hagmaier

Place was awesome and the service was the best. Recommended!

Lyoid Fussell

Nice restaurant, good food, cheese plate appetizer crustinis and cheese selection is great. Had wild boar pasta, it was fine. Lemoncello cheese cake not great, stella candy bar very good. All in all, better than an average Italian style restaurant.

Ryan Rafferty

You can walk in but but I would recommend making reservations if you are coming here during peak hours. The restaurant is beautiful and the food was good. Portion sizes were smaller than what were used to for an Italian restaurant but the right size to satisfy our hunger. The smoked chicken lasagna made me think more of a quiche rather than a lasagna but the Brie and chicken scallopini dishes were delicious.

Ian Hutcheson

Solid Italian restaurant, great location in the heart of Midtown. Menu selection is diverse enough to be interesting and is reasonably priced. Nice romantic atmosphere, good place for date or a nice night out

Bruna Butler

The best pictures my little ones have

William Nave

Very warm atmosphere, food was delicious, and my server was excellent! I had the Mushroom Risotto, and my wife had the Sauteed Shrimp (fettuccine). Price for 2 was $50, music was at a reasonable but, most of all the crowd was chill and diverse. Will definitely come back soon.

Diego Peñafiel

Great for date night and drinks, attracts crowds for people over 35. Lots of pasta options and a great dessert selection. Wine list is pretty good and the bar staff is friendly . Great for special menus like Easter brunch and other holidays

Priscilla Spain

Down to earth friendly staff who cares about people and care about their job. Its a great dinning experience. Right in the middle of Mid town OKC. With a rich and culture based setting. Great tasting food.

Janie Stewart

Great place loved the atmosphere

tnoree1

Love your food and good service good wines and perfect design

Jacob Roan

Could not ask for a better dining experience, quality food and good drink selection. Outdoor seating was nice and last time we went they had live music on the patio. Overall it’s nice but not pretentious. Would highly recommend if you like Italian food.

I like stella's. My husband and I go every Friday. The service and food is great! The outdoor patio is wonderful. I m a very picky customer when it comes to food. But they always accommodate your food choices.

Andrea Gomez

Consistently good food and consistently good service.

yvette cruz

Was a cute place. That being said I am not ever going to go back. We were sat down fast then the wait began. Our server came out with our water and took our drink order. 20 minutes later he come back to say he doesn't have part of the stuff to make our drinks. So we agreed to different drinks , the drinks came out after a nother 20 minutes and were awful. He took our order and 30 minutes we got our food we literally had 2 bites and resided to leave . So I paid $70 to leave and go eat somewhere else oh this was on a Wednesday.

michele keshick

AWESOME FOOD AND SERVICE

Paughnee Moore

Must try the seasonal bruschetta! The chicken risotto was delicious. Seating was a bit crowded for my taste.

Andrea Hembree

This place is worth checking out. Food is pretty good.

Grace Powell

We had an amazing dinner here. Everything was amazing and they treated us so well. The whole restaurant is adorable and high end without being stuffy at all. The waitress' recommendations were spot-on. Their homemade pasta is absolutely to die for, my friend had the pizza and it was really good as well. You will not be disappointed if you decide to eat here.

Wolfie Mueller

Awesome food!

Amber Lee

Always delicious food when I go and drinks are good. Fun atmosphere for special occasions.

Jeannie Maycumber

Good food, great service.

Dale Easton

Wonderful ambiance

The FunnyFormula

Had 8 people in our party, Only thing that was good was the salad.

Praviin Gupta

Maybe their chef has changed. The food was tasteless, the dipping oil had no strength. We come from Toronto to visit our daughter in OKC and Stella was always on our must do list. Not anymore.

A B

The food is Wonderful here. Digs are a bit tight though. They really need to expand the building methinks.

Mercedes Miley

Exquisite food and incredible service!
