About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighbourhood gem
Located at 76 South Street, Stellina Ristorante is a fine Italian restaurant that hopes to be exactly what the name implies — the “little star” in the town of Oyster Bay. 

Stellina Ristorante, with only a 40-person occupancy, will create an atmosphere of dining in a small restaurant in Italy — sometimes in the seaside of the Amalfi Coast, other times in the hills of Tuscany. Through seasonally-inspired, authentic Italian cooking, Stellina’s mission is to bring a small piece of Italy to Oyster Bay. The specially-crafted menu will include a variety of spuntini, pasta, pizzas, and more.

    My server was not very attentive especially since there was only one other customer. I had the veal chop parmigiana which was huge, but dry, tasteless and not worth the price.

    Gracious service and warm ambiance, but food was disappointing. Lasagna- mushy, overcooked. Stuffed zucchini flowers were over-breaded and stuffed w mozzarella instead of delicate ricotta. Pasta with saffron & pistachio sauce somehow tasted clammy, buffalo and truffle pizza - while quite generous on truffles and pretty thin, was not crispy and somehow lacked in flavor. Short ribs with polenta - generous portion, but the meat was meh, loved the polenta. Special drink - Limoncello martini was yummy

    We had a wonderful time. The food was delicious, and our server was spectacular. We were a rather large group, but this was handled seamlessly by our server. She was very patient with us explaining each menu item and offered suggestions based on our personal preference. We did not feel rushed, although the restaurant was busy. This to me is key when enjoying a special evening.

    This is a very cute little place, a bit different from others in the LI restaurant world. It is quite small, cooking space semi visible. They have some very innovative (but not 'weird') dishes. This not a place for a large group - one was seated next to us as we were finishing and they were terribly crowded, as were we. I was VERY disappointed that the waiter who took our order stopped coming to our table because they were so busy, and he never brought the take out items we had ordered with our meals. Was fun to try this, and we enjoyed it, but the service was inadequate for this price point

    We went for their pre fixe dinner w wine included and how on earth could they not offer red wine as part of the special? They said they were “out” it was a Wednesday that we ate! Also, only 2 options for dessert and they were “out” of one of them! The red sauce tasted like tomato juice, no flavor…for my arrabiata I had to ask for red pepper flakes because it wasn’t spicy at all! The restaurant itself has a nice ambiance, beautifully appointed, good play list and attentive staff…very very pricey for portion size!!!
