I took my daughter here for Christmas Eve and our experience could not have been nicer. Although very busy evening the staff remained highly professional and the food was delicious. It’s nice to see someone still knows how to run a restaurant.

Stellina is not your typical crowded Long Island Italian eatery where people go to be seen. Instead, it's like a café in Italy. The ambiance is wonderful, and the staff is easy to talk to and incredibly accommodating, taking care of special requests without hesitation. The food is fantastic—from the salads and wood-fired oven pizzas to the homemade pastas, Zuppe di Pesce, and lasagna. Stellina is worth the drive to Oyster Bay and is a standout.
