Stella's

What I hold closest to my heart from my time with Aunt Stella is her genuine love for cooking and the joy of family gatherings. Even now, I can effortlessly transport myself back to those cherished moments, picturing her gracefully moving around the kitchen and savoring the lingering aroma of freshly prepared spaghetti sauce on the stove.

- BBrian1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoHad a wonderful experience overall. Left for some memorable moments with me and my wife. Would definitely go back again, no matter how far the drive was. Food was pretty good considering, had the ribs full rack and I was genuinely surprised at how tender it was. It was definitely worth the price. It knocked smokey bones out the park for sure. Went there for karaoke, was happy with the result, literally had all the songs I wanted to sing with my partner. Let us sit on the rooftop with an immaculate vibe of lights, perfect Tuesday night. Thank you for an inviting and warm memory.More infoLALA St.PetePrice: Moderate• French American• St. Petersburg•4.4
