Go, go, go. It's a little further away from the place I was staying at, but it was so fantastic…read more The place is cute, it has a "fancier" area, but honestly it didn't matter because the food was so good. The portions were large and honestly, easy to share. The fried calamari and shrimp and the shrimp scampi was SO GOOD. The cook was amazing, the shrimp were huge and had so much flavor. Something I was surprised by was the catfish. Holy crap. So much flavor and loved that it came with rice and potatoes. Get it. Just get it. The employees were efficient and helpful. If I'm in Chicago, I'll have to go back. Im dreaming of the fried calamari and shrimp combo and that catfish.

Down-to-earth prices for well-prepared seafood adds up to an incredibly good value. The décor has…read morea casual Gulf Coast vibe and the tables are covered with brown paper. Utensils are provided, but this shellfish paradise is essentially a finger-food fort. The napkin dispenser on the table sure does come in handy. You can get a generous glass of wine for $6.95 (I forgave our server for not knowing the difference between chardonnay and cabernet) and a beer for even less. The hush puppies melt in your mouth. My Missus enjoyed a bowl of seafood gumbo and a fried scallops basket. My colossal fried catfish basket contained 4 planks fried to perfection, a generous mound of fries, and salad with a very good ranch dressing, all for $16. Need I say more?

He'd been there 32 years. Hope to get him next time we're back. Honestly, it's the freshest seafood around. They know how to shuck oysters and prepare them perfectly anytime of the year. The oysters were absolutely amazing. And then the crab legs....oh my goodness..delish. Everything was just so delicious. And I have to give a shout out to their sweet, creamy butter. Lastly, we love sitting in the thick of it where you get to see them preparing the oysters and all the seafood. Love this place. Thank you Shaws!

They renovated the interior, gone are the signatures all over the walls, now it's greenery and posters. Menu's pretty much the same, but the taste has its own spin. We always get the combo flavor (signature sauce, medium spice) with corn and sausage, and pair the bag with the garlicky spaghetti, it was so good. They give you plastic bib + gloves if you don't want to get messy. The cornbread was amazing too so don't miss it. And it's BYOB, so we brought a cold bottle of white. Highly recommend.

We…read moreall started with Cantarito drinks, which were refreshing and the perfect way to kick off the celebration. My parents and sister had the Molcajetes, which are still tasty, but compared to before, it felt like they've been trying to cut corners a bit--more beans than meat this time around. My boyfriend and I shared the Charola Mixta, and it was absolutely amazing. The portion was huge and generous, with so much flavor in every bite--it honestly stole the show. The atmosphere was lively and festive, making it a great spot for celebrating special occasions. Overall, La Costa still delivers on hearty Mexican food, delicious drinks, and a fun vibe. While some dishes might have shifted a bit over time, the Charola Mixta and drinks are definitely worth trying!

With that, After countless…read morevisits to Stefani Prime, you would think that I would have at least one thing negative to say, but I do not. From the hosts or hostesses, every individual bartender or server, all the way to table visits from a manager or even a Chef, you are made to feel like the most important guests in the restaurant. Punctuated by an AMAZING meal, each visit was individually unique and beyond enjoyable. The daily specials offer a soup that never disappoints no matter what the selection. Even In the heat of Summer, the lure of these soups set a standard that anything on the menu will satisfy. The choices are many, and what seem to be a labor of love from the Chef. With subtle background music and a comfortably lit dining area, it shows that you are wanted to feel welcomed and relaxed. I fail to leave my menu preferences on this review because there are too many and, every choice I make is it difficult one. I of course have my favorites, but can assure any diner that you'll never regret any choice you make on that menu. Stopping in there for a drink is always an option as well. The veteran bar staff gives you consistency in quality preparation of GOOD cocktails ranging from the standards to custom creations. Most recently I was introduced to a seasonal drink referred to as "walk in the park". Its everything you want in a drink, and for me it's set the table perfectly for the steak dinner that followed. We were so happy to have somewhere in the neighborhood offering you a top shelf evening of cocktails and a meal, which has been the consistent soul of Stefani Prime since it opened. Bon appetit....... And thank you to the Stefani restaurant group for continuing the tradition of attaching your heart to a restaurant and not just your name.

No need for the beurre Blanc sauce which was on the side thankfully. Broccoli cooked to perfection on this one! The Ahi Tuna was seared 'blue' (term I wasn't familiar with, but waiter explained a quick sear each side to be near raw.
