    We enjoyed our visit. The restaurant was easy to get to, and there was plenty of parking in a lot next to the restaurant even in downtown Middletown. The weight staff was attentive, and gave great recommendations for food. Our meals were prepared, very tastefully. Even though the seating area is smaller than some restaurants, it was not noisy and didn’t feel crowded We will go again

    Stella Doro has fabulous food. True Italian cuisine. The waiters are very experienced and gracious. They make eating at this establishment a joy. I had my birthday dinner at this restaurant because it was so comfortable to have a large party. Go there. You will not be disappointed! Their crème brûlée is to die for, and I found that it was even better than Esca's of Middletown, CT.

    Food was great! We got the burrata and it was amazing, as was the chicken parm and the bolognese. We really had a great experience

    Middletown‘s hidden gem. Excellent Italian food in a warm and cozy atmosphere must be a family run business because they treat you like family will be back again for sure.
