    The Stefanos online ordering system allowed me to order a dinner for Christmas Day to pick up on the 25th. Even confirmed the order with me online. Christmas day went to pick up order at restaurant. Restaurant closed! Upon calling today (Saturday) and explaining what happened that wrecked our Christmas dinner, they gave us a measly 10% off order we placed. My shrimp scampi had FIVE shrimp and more noodles than a human could eat in days. What?? We have eaten at this restaurant frequently over the years, but their careless attitude and lousy meal preparation will have us dining elsewhere.

    My daughter had a large group of friends celebrating her birthday at Stefano’s, and the entire experience was wonderful. The owner worked closely with me to make sure the food and seating setup were exactly what we needed. He was transparent about everything, incredibly accommodating, and truly attentive to making the night go smoothly. The girls loved the food, especially the Penne Vodka, which was the girls favorite. Cesar salad they said was delicious. The service was top-notch from start to finish, and the girls left happy, full, and already talking about how great everything was. Highly recommend!
