Their carbonara pasta dish is so well done. The pasta is chewy while so creamy. I also love their signature fish dish. It has the wonderful wood fired flavor, while goes well with the olive, fig sauce. Bravo. I took 0.5 off from the desserts. We had the chocolate cherry cake. It's not as impressive as the savory dishes. The service and ambiance are both great.

Why do I have the urge to be Stanley Kowalski from "A Streetcar Named Desire" and scream at the top…read moreof my lungs "Stella!" but when the food is this good as it is when it is served at Stella, then you too will be screaming at the top of your lungs! Located in the previous space that housed Cafe Citti along the Sonoma Highway, in the Sonoma wine country hamlet of Kenwood, California, Stella comes from the same team that previously brought the local dining community Glen Ellen Star. Opened for only the past year, Stella focuses on pasta and grilled meat dishes. Passing along Stella's restaurant front after many visits to the many wineries that dot the Sonoma Highway, a friend and I were intrigued to finally make a visit in between visits to two neighboring wineries. With a lot of activity going on outside in their outdoor dining patio, not having reservations wasn't an issue at all, as their host sat us inside of their dining room at a corner booth. The lunchtime menu at Stella is separated into categories including Antipasti, which are their Appetizers; Insalate or Salads; Mozzarella Bar e fett'unta, or mozzarella served with grilled bread; The Lunch Break, which are lunch combination meals; Pasta Fresca, which are pasta made fresh daily; Secondi, which are their meat entrées, including sandwiches and burgers; and Contorni, which are side dishes. With my dining mate and I not being super hungry, we opted to share two of their entrées, and after asking our server Gillian what the best-sellers were for lunch and they suggested their Burrata & Mortadella from the Mozzarella Bar section of their menu, which was smooth burrata cheese topped with castelvetrano olives, pistachio and basil oil served with multiple slices of mortadella meat which too was topped with olives and pistachios. For our main entrée, we decided to share their Rigatoni which was topped with generous amounts of milk braised pork and beef and aged parmesan. With two dishes for lunch that is all we needed and our first dish of Burrata & Mortadella was placed at our table first and it was a real winner, as it came with plenty of slices of grilled sourdough bread topped with aged parmesan. Being able to place the spreadable cheese and sliced meat on every slice of grilled bread was a real treat. A true meal in itself. Then our pasta dish would be presented to our table and it was a true authentic Italian pasta entrée that had the perfect combination of flavors. This beautifully composed dish was the perfect accent to our lunch and filled with so much food that there was a little extra food to take home for the afternoon. Our total bill was $61.18 of which it should be noted that they charge an extra fee should you choose to pay with a credit card, so it is always best to bring cash with you when dining at Stella. It also should be noted that in their short time of being around, Stella has been known for their Baked "Gelaska" which is their spin on a Baked "Alaska" with gelato instead of ice cream. Better believe that I will be ordering that dessert item along with many more of their mozzarella appetizers and freshly made pasta dishes, as after visiting Stella you too will be screaming at the top of your lungs for food as nicely crafted as it is in this picturesque setting in Sonoma wine country.

But we found this place and decided to give it a try. The breadsticks were not very appealing, but they tasted alright. I did not expect them to have cheese on them, but they did and it was fine. Pepperoni pizza was also just fine. Overall, it's not like anything was bad. It just wasn't spectacular. If I'm back in the area, I don't think we will go back.

It's so cozy and I learned their space is much bigger than I thought. They have a back section (where we were seated) the lighting was very dim but it definitely gave that romantic vibe. Since it was Valentine's Day, they had a prefixed menu and each item paired with wine, I did not mind at all! Our menu looked something like this: filet mignon carpaccio, tuna crudo, duck confit, pan roasted chilean seabass, tiramisu, gelato, crème brule Unfortunately, service was very slow, but I completely understand it's a busy holiday! So happy I got to try a new restaurant in Sonoma

I can't stand when you go to a nice upscale place and you have to ask for everything. "Can I please have another drink, more coffee, hot sauce, silverware, etc. etc..." Service has gone downhill everywhere. But these servers stand out and were great, thank you! I'd post a photo of the omelette but I ate it right up. It was so good.

This was, without question, one of the best meals we've ever had…read more From start to finish, everything was impeccable. We sat at the chef's counter, which made the experience even more special because we were able to watch the entire team bring each dish together. We ordered the surf and turf special, the pasta dish, and the Brussels sprouts to start, which are an absolute must. Every ingredient tasted incredibly fresh, and you can tell a tremendous amount of care goes into every plate. What stood out just as much as the food was watching the owner and chef lead the kitchen. Even during busy moments, he remained calm, respectful, and supportive of everyone around him. Seeing that kind of leadership and professionalism behind the scenes was genuinely refreshing and added to our appreciation of the experience. Dessert was the perfect ending to an already incredible meal. We tried the vanilla ice cream and strawberry sorbet, and while both were delicious, the vanilla ice cream was the standout for me. We also had another dessert that was fantastic and beautifully executed. The atmosphere is charming, cozy, and unpretentious. You can come dressed casually in flip-flops or make it a special night out. Either way, you'll feel right at home. The location is also great, with a local bar just around the corner if you'd like to grab a cocktail afterward. The service was exceptional, warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. With a seasonally changing menu and such a strong commitment to fresh ingredients, I honestly can't wait to come back and see what they're creating next. I genuinely don't know how this place doesn't have a Michelin star yet. It's that good.
