Stella’s does not disappoint! We had our “usual” table in the front dining room. We brought friends and they loved it. My favorite is the stuffed veal chop, but this time I opted for the bass, stella style, and it was delicious. This was the first time I ordered dessert, and wow, loved the almond cake. We will be back!

The ambiance at Mama Lombardis is lovely and conducive to eating in a fine restaurant. It's immaculate which is a big plus. Our server was very attentive, and a charming disposition. They go out of their way to make your dining experience pleasurable enough to return. You are served like you are the only guest.

Amazing high end Mexican food that goes with the region. I eat a lot of Mexican food, and this was some of the best I have had in a while. It is upper scale Mexican food, not street Mexican. Definitely recommend. Also the drinks are great and reasonably priced!
