Winner of ""worst Pizza Ever"" 3/9/2010

We ordered a pizza that was for takeout....our second meal the first meal 6 months ago the pasta was overcooked and bland sauce....Back to the pizza we picked up the pizza and when we opened it we were surprised to find our cheese pizza we ordered had more basil than cheese. It was full of the leafy greens and had little cheese and lots of sauce. Absolutely the worst thing ever. We called Stellas and the said oh...that is how we make our cheese pizza...YUCCKK. Pros: nice people Cons: horrible food more

Stella's is great for Happy Hour 9/7/2009

We went there for Happy Hour on a Saturday, yes I said Saturday. We were pleasantly surprised at the prices and the portions of the happy hour food. Drinks were good and the service was stellar. They even had a guy that played Sax. I'll definitely come back. Pros: Great Prices - Big Portions Cons: You can't sit on the patio for Happy Hour. more

Absolutely fabulous 7/6/2009

Went there for happy hour and had the best time. The staff is friendly and go out of their way to make you feel at home. The food is excellent especially the pizza and calamari. They have a very impressive martini list and their espresso martini is the best I have ever tasted. more

Unterwegs 7/28/2008

Guests ask for more bread so that they can wipe there bowls clean. Our sauces are made from scratch. I dont believe we would have been voted 3rd best restaurant in orange county,nor do I believe the cast members' from the Sappranos come 3 times a year from New York to eat sauce from a can. Stella's recieve referals from the St.Regis, Ritz & Montage Pros: Chefs specials more
