Customer Reviews
Tracy our server was FANTASTIC!! Give her a raise :) Best service we've had there. Food was delish! The special pasta with clams, broccoli rabe and sausage was very tasty. Loved the dirty martinis too!
I came here on Saturday night around 5 pm for dinner and the vibes were great. Beautiful restaurant with high ceilings and nice skylights. The food was presented so immaculately and tasted amazing. I got the short ribs with mashed potatoes and carrots. The potatoes were fantastic and the meat was great too. My husband got a pork chop and he said it was great, and I tried his brussel sprouts and mashed sweet potato and they were delicious too. On the pricey side but great spot for a date night or special occasion.
My boyfriend and I went yesterday for his birthday dinner, and to say we were happy was an understatement! The service and atmosphere was fantastic. The food was also incredible - I was nervous to try the octopus starter because we’ve had it at different places where we didn’t like it but it ended up being one of my favorite parts of the meal. The small touches for his birthday did not go unnoticed, and definitely added to our experience. The drinks were also great, I especially loved the special that was a fall sour cocktail. 10/10 recommend
Delicious fresh ingredients which we’re prepared to perfection and the service was awesome too! Plenty of space inside of the restaurant and they do offer outside dining too! We parked nearby and no problem with our reservations. Drinks, desserts and atmosphere all were very good. I highly recommend this restaurant to celebrate a special occasion or to enjoy a delicious meal. My daughter and son-in-law wanted me to taste the food since they went there to celebrate their anniversary. Looking forward to going back again.
On a lark, we decided to try Luna Stella for dinner earlier this week. We caught it out of the corner of our eyes as it is tucked away slightly off the Main Street of Maplewood, but boy are we glad we found it! We happened to catch them on a live music night so we decided to sit at a bar table and while the dining room was nearly empty, the bar was full. Our waiter was attentive even with a full plate of tables and the owner came over to us several times to see how we were doing. Our drinks were very good, but the food was amazing! The chicken was pounded so thin for the Milenese and fried perfectly. The short rib pappardelle had a deep unctuous beef flavor but was not heavy at all. The pasta was cooked perfectly! We will definitely be going back!
