    Love the classy neighborhood feel of this place. Didn't realize it was so close to the Fan. Our waitress was very articulate and top-shelf. The food was cooked and seasoned very well. This is a place that makes you feel important and well cared for. Love that!

She gave great recommendations and guidance so that our meal was paced perfectly. Cocktails were amazing and everything we ate was delicious. Can't wait to come back!

    Absolutely! During our initial visit to Stella's RVA, we were thoroughly impressed. The standout was undoubtedly the perfectly prepared salmon dish. Stella's not only accommodated our dietary requests but also provided impeccable service. The knowledgeable waitress and helpful hostess, Natalie, added to the overall enjoyable experience. We look forward to returning soon for more culinary delights.

    Haven’t been here in a hit second but we will definitely be back more often!! We sat outside and it was a lovely Summer day. Service was wonderful. Our salads were delicious. Make sure you grab a bottle of Stella’s olive oil across the street in the grocery store.

    The cocktails and wine recommendations were fantastic. Our server was attentive without being intrusive, and had nearly flawless timing. The special salad (with grilled peaches), the meatball app, and the filet mignon were all well received. The leg of lamb was incredibly disappointing - overcooked to a fare-thee-well. I'll try again, but won't order that dish.

    As always, food was wonderful - couldn't have been better. I am a repeat customer and Stella's is one of my favorites. I have been going to Stella's it was located on Grace & Harrison Streets. I work in the next block so we frequented there often. Stella's chicken salad sandwich on her wonderful bread toasted still holds fond memories. The pastor of our church (where I still am employed) knew Stella well. Such a loving lady. One last thing - out waiter yesterday was John and he was fabulous. I called and asked that that be passed on. The waitstaff is always good but he was exceptional! Thanks for another great meal!

    Always enjoy service & my fav food. Hard to talk with noise issues inside, but that can’t be helped. I will try a new dish soon. Had classic Greek salad (thank you for fresh local tomatoes) & appetizers. Pasta #5 always a hit

    We are from out of town and a friend had recommended Stella's. We made lunch reservations and we're so glad we found this cozy neighborhood restaurant. The vibe was relaxed/energetic. The food and service were very good. My husband really liked his lamb hero and roasted potatoes. My order of moussaka was great. The side dish of lima bean & feta salad was unique and so tasty. The portions were big. We had food left over & took it home for supper. I would definitely return to Stella's when in Richmond.

    The grilled Octupus was wonderful, very tender and just like we get in Astoria, NY. The Oyster Rockefeller appetizer special was also very tasty and served hot. However, our lamb shank main course was dry and the meat was room temperature covered by a hot gravy and we substituted the lemon potatoes as a side. Those were delicious. Our waiter offered to have our lamb cooked to the right temperature but I was full from the lovely appetizers and delicious bread. I took it home. I prefer my lamb shank tender. I might try the pork souvlaki next time, as I love souvlaki from NY everytime we visit. We did have a lovely time. Our waiter was delightful and told us all the enticing dinner specials. It's a nice restaurant and yes the food is authentic Greek food. I recommend putting in your reservation asap as there is a 2-month waiting period.
