    For some reason they are allowing dogs at the restaurant. There were 3 dogs in the outside dining area licking and drooling, things they should do at home, not a restaurant.
    StellaResponded 1 day ago
    Thank you for sharing your feedback. Stella is proudly a dog-friendly restaurant—named after our beloved dog—and we welcome well-behaved pups on our outdoor patio. We understand that this isn’t for everyone, and that’s okay. Our space is designed for guests who appreciate a warm, casual environment where dogs are part of the experience. While we’re sorry this didn’t align with your expectations, we respect your perspective and thank you for giving us a try.

    There were 2 dogs sitting at tables around us. One kept barking and it was disruptive.

    Food— vegetarian croquette dish was salty but other foods good. Indoor seating oriented so that only 1/2 of your party could see the view of the water and light from windows was stronger than interior lighting. There are no noise softening affects inside so talking was a challenge. Service was fantastic.

    We had a nice first experience at Stella. They kindly combined our 2 tables into one table of 6 for us (we had reserved 2 tables of 4 & 2 guests could not make it). We began with wine & cava at the bar. The view of the river is lovely & the bartender was friendly & attentive. We all enjoyed our meals & had an array of dishes including oysters, bread with dips, chicken, bass, gnocci, mushroom dumplings & wagyu steak tartare. The sauce on the gnocchi was outstanding & everyone commented on the infusion of flavors in their individual meals. They have valet parking ($30!). Or you can find street or lot parking. We Ubered to & from. They have outdoor dining too. Would recommend.

    We had a wonderful dinner at Stella New Hope. We started with creamy burrata topped with sweet fruit, which was a delicious combination. For my main course, I chose the black bass on a crispy potato latke, paired with roasted squash and a fantastic coriander and vanilla velouté. So good. Service, ambience and food were outstanding. Dining on the covered porch was lovely, and we enjoyed watching the skull team practicing.

    Our server, Tonya was outstanding. She was very patient and did not get rattled when one of us knocked over a glass of water all over the floor and table. there were four of us. We had the avocado toast, the eggs, Benedict, and two of us got the Bucks County breakfast. Quantity of food was generous, but not ridiculous. We got a lemon ricotta, pancake for the table and tried the cornbread that was on special. There were no complaints from anyone and we would definitely go back again.
