Diner Reviews

"My kids were leary going to a tapas restaurent. However, they thoroughly enjoyed the food and there was something on the menu for everyone to enjoy. They were even tempted to try some things they had never had before."

"If you enjoy tapas and the "small-bites" approach to dining, this is the place for you. Located on a quite side street in downtown Nashua, Stella Blu is visuually very pleasing, with soft lighting, high tables, and wrap-around bar, and an imaginative and varied menu that runs the gamut from great salads to asian, italian, mexican cuisine, reasonably priced. Two to four small plates each create a varied and very satisfying dinner. We will return."

"It’s been a while since we tried a new restaurant with our neighbors and walked away with a unanimous thumbs up vote. The entire experience was fantastic. It started with a seamless reservation via OpenTable and prompt seating upon arrival. Our waiter Dan was indeed the man and provided excellent service. The atmosphere was great, but the food was the story. American Tapas was a new thing for us and we absolutely loved it. With such a variety of small dishes, it was amazing to us how great they all were. We stayed for quite while and left very happy. I can't believe it took us so long to try Stella Blu, now we can't wait to go back, Highly recommended."

"Food was excellent as always. The cocktail was wonderful. Server was inattentive and had to be called over several times. The water had no ice both times she filled our glass. Have always had excellent wait staff so this was a surprise. Music was nice but too loud to continue conversation."
Dined on 6/20/2014
"Ate at the bar and really enjoyed the six or so different tapas we ordered. However, the wine selection left a lot to be desired and after a couple glasses, we still hadn't found anything we really liked."

"I took my father and fiancé here for Father's Day. Neither had tried tapas before and were excited for the experience. Because I had made reservations so far in advance and when we arrived, it was not crowded, I expected a better table than what was offered. At first, the hostess tried to seat us right outside the bathrooms!! Not sure why there is a table there? Then we were sat in front of the water station/computer (literally 2 feet between our chairs and the sideboard so waitstaff were going behind us, squeezing in and bumping our chairs all night). We were also right under a music speaker. This was not ideal since my father is hard of hearing. I should have asked for a better seat a second time...but should I have had to?"

"Once again a great meal and great atmosphere! Lots of food choices even for my wife who is a vegetarian. Will be back!"
Dined on 6/14/2014
"Very tasty food and awesome beer special when we went. Allagash for $3! Waitresses were fantastic. Only thing I'd say is the dishes are not very filling. Don't go there starving because you'll spend a lot of money ordering app after app. The apps run small and the point is to share them."
Dined on 6/11/2014
"Fri night out with girlfriends ---delicious food and drinks! Live music not too loud to keep from conversation. Definitely would recommend!"
Dined on 6/6/2014
"Great place, great food,attentive staff, manager very good at overseeing resturant. Would go again without hesitation"

"Going to Stella's is always good because the atmosphere is welcoming and casual. A great place to meet up with friends for any occasion. "

"This was my first time at Stella Blu although I had heard it was a great place. There were five in my party and we all loved the food and drinks. he service was outstanding as well. It is a bit noisy but we were still able to converse. We also stayed and listened to the musician Max Sullivan who was also excellent. I will definitely be back."
Dined on 5/24/2014
"I love this place. Food and drinks are excellent. The staff always goes out of their way to accommodate larger groups. It's also a great place for a twosome or to sit at the bar."
Dined on 5/13/2014
"Everything was very tasty, overall a good experience. Service was well spaced out but the waitress never noticed my water glass was empty- yeah a little nit, but it gives you the idea of the level of service. Food was very good, lots of variety."
Dined on 5/11/2014
"Very good tapas, on par with a good Boston restaurant, located right in Nashua. Prices are very reasonable due to its location. Good selection of international cuisine, and since it's tapas, you can sample several. The creme-brule for dessert is very good."
Dined on 5/10/2014
"Excellent food, fun atmosphere and amazing bar tender/drinks!"
Dined on 5/4/2014
"We were a party of four, I've been to Stella's several times, but the other three in my group had never been. The drinks and appetizers were great, especially the pesto fries. Our favorites were the Kobe beef sliders and Lobster Mac & Cheese. With all the different tastes we shared and drinks the bill was still under $100. Definitely will return many times."

"This was a first time for myself and my daughter going to a tapas restaurant. The wait staff was amazing and helpful. The food was amazing. My daughter has found her new birthday restaurant"

"Food was terrific and due tapas menu we sampled many items. Good drinks too. Simply fun simply enjoyable!"

"I meant to go here once with a friend of mine, but we were unable to get a table. This place books up, so I'd highly recommend making reservations in advance! I came with a party of 5, and we were seated at a table of ample size in the back. It was an energetic environment with a lot of chatter around us... exactly as I had envisioned that it would be. Fun for a group. What really makes this place a solid winner is the food. Every single dish was absolutely delicious (and I tried almost everything on the table)!! We dropped $150... so beware- the dishes add up quickly. My favorite dishes of the night were the lobster mac and cheese, the arancini, calamari (with the house sauce yum!), and the molten chocolate cake dessert. YUM!"

"I really enjoyed eating at Stella Blu. The service was excellent and the food was amazing. I enjoyed the gluten free options and the food was fresh. Best creme brulee I have had in a while too!"

"Title pretty much sums up my experience. The food and drinks are wonderful. It is a great concept for a restaurant very unique for the city. However it is terribly loud even at a small table my friend and I seemed to be yelling to even talk to each other. Service was poor, very stuck up waitress not to mention waiting about 20 mins for her to come and take a drink order and hand us menus."
Dined on 3/22/2014
"Always a great time, great food, great staff. Can't wait to go back."
Dined on 3/11/2014
"We tried 6-7 tapas plates. Everything was outstanding. The host was pathetic. On arrival, he informed us our table wasn't ready. After being prompted, he said it would be ready "soon" and "go stand over there" (pointing to the end of the bar, near the middle of the dining room). Midway through the meal, our waitress needed to rearrange the dining room (at 8:00 PM on a Saturday night) and asked us to move our table 3 feet and then jammed two more tables on top of us. The bartender; however, was great. She was very attentive and nice. Noise level was extremely high; you could barely hear the conversation, but again, it was prime time Saturday night. All in all, I'd go again for the food, but would try to pick a less crowded time."

"The live trio and the Martini menu was fantastic all brought to us by a friendly knowledgable wait staff"
Dined on 3/7/2014
"We've been here several times and they never fail to impress us. Whether you sample from their cheese platter, dive into their tapas from across the world, or just stop by to taste some rare beers, delicious drinks and wonderful wine section - you will NOT be disappointed. All their servers are friendly and personable! We recently went with a group for a birthday and it was absolutely perfect!"
Dined on 3/4/2014
"We met friends for dinner at Stella Blu and it was a perfect choice! Delicious tapas were perfect for sharing for the table and we enjoyed trying so many dishes. The layout of the restaurant is beautiful with a long curved ceiling, copper colored walls, and a long curving bar that leads you around to a seating area perfect for quieter conversations. Love this place, and even our gluten free family members can eat hear happily!"
Dined on 2/23/2014
"Stella Blue was a great find! We ordered a variety of tapas and there was nothing that was not absolutely delicious. Love the way the menu is divided into categories, such as Italian, Asian, etc. The bar area was very active, and the tables near the bar would be very loud and crowded. We were glad to be seated in the back and would request a table in that location in the future."
Dined on 2/21/2014
"I love eating at Stella's and this go around was no different."
Dined on 2/16/2014
"First timer at restaurant, tapas restaurant so we tried a number of small plates, Kobe burgers were absolutely outstanding, empanadas were our second favorite but have to say all was very good. Really liked the ambiance, hip and sophisticated. Go for the bar ambiance but you'll return for the food."
Dined on 2/16/2014
"The food was great, and came out of the kitchen quickly. The server, average. We had reservations for over a month, and somehow got seated in the bar, 5 feet away from the blender and the area where the wait staff gathers to (loudly) socialize. It was difficult to have a nice romantic dinner with my husband over all that noise and such. Overall, I was kind of disappointed by the experience."
Dined on 2/15/2014
"Our second time here. Was not disappointed either time. Food is cooked to perfection. Service is good. Prices are reasonable. Recommend Stella Blu."

"We made reservations at Stella Blu for valentines day. The food was amazing, our server Dan was great, and our all around experience was awesome!"
Dined on 2/14/2014
"Great food and drinks. The only problem is that you want to try everything!"
Dined on 2/14/2014
"The food and service are very good. We were disappointed they didn't have the 5 course valentines special like they did in 2013. Their social media presence has died off which may have given us a heads up about this. Over all this place is good and I would go back."
Dined on 2/14/2014
"The food is fantastic and the tappas style allows you to share and enjoy several of their tasty items without stuffing yourself."
Dined on 2/14/2014
"Cocktails were creative, tasted great and finished well. Food was really excellent all around. We were a group of eight and ordered rounds of tapas to share - the food came out quickly. Service was great while we were doing the food, but a little slow before we got started (taking drink orders) and afterwards (getting the check)."
Dined on 1/31/2014
"Food was delicious with lots of variety. Something for everyone. Live music after dinner was a great way to finish the evening."
