    We arrived early to St. Pete's for vacation and couldn't check into our hotel yet, so looked for a spot for breakfast. Stella's did not disappoint! We were seated immediately. The restaurant was busy. We grabbed our usual seat at the bar inside. They have plenty of seating inside and out. We were waited on right away by Cathy, and she was awesome. She checked on us frequently and was great. We started with their 16 oz mimosa and tried an appetizer of pierogies. They were delicious. Then we ordered the simple breakfast. Eggs, bacon/ham, hash browns/grits, sour dough toast/biscuit & gravy. everything was cooked to order, hot & delicious!! Great atmosphere, great service, and great food!! Great experience for our first stop on vacation!! Street parking available.

    Deep South burger
    Kristen H.

    Can never decide when I know I'm not coming back. The biscuits and gravy looked promising for breakfast but I already had that and I'm way over any sad calories budget I had. Don't wanna order Mexican food in the South where it's not the specialty and even though the hangover burger looked cool I ended up with the Deep South burger. They said this place is known for fried green tomatoes. As you can see this burger can't be eaten like a regular burger so I just had pieces. And today I learned I do not like fried green tomatoes so there's that part. But it's solid otherwise and fries are great. As far as the venue goes. Overall this area is definitely uh. Liberal. Very clearly. Like a version of Newport Beach that West Hollywood took over, is the best I can compare it to. Its pretty and very obviously well off. Just came here to sight see and this street is the one to do it on apparently.

    Stella's has been our go-to breakfast spot in St. Pete for years! Their menu offers something for everyone, from simple egg dishes to more elaborate options, and they serve both breakfast and lunch. We usually order the two-egg breakfast, which comes with your choice of meat, potatoes or tomatoes, and toast. Everything is always cooked to perfection and served quickly, no matter how busy they are. Plus, the prices can't be beat! Stella's is also very dog-friendly, with about 95% of their seating outdoors. In the summer, I recommend wearing light, breathable clothing--it can get hot despite the ample shade and fans. If you're in Gulfport or St. Pete and looking for a new breakfast spot, Stella's is absolutely worth a visit!

    Quite a neat place plenty of outside seating which works well as long as the weather holds. Never checked if they have actual indoor dining. Staff is friendly and attentive and it has a large menu and large drink (alcohol) availability. Food was served really fast and it was hot and done really well.

    Chicken Fried Steak with Eggs and Side of Fruit
    Bob N.

    Stopped in for brunch at Stella's while visiting Gulfport, an eclectic little artist town with tons of charm. The place was pretty busy (unsurprising for a weekend), but I was lucky to snag a quick indoor table. Major win, because it was hot AF outside. I went with the Chicken Fried Steak with a side of fruit. The chicken was perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside and surprisingly moist inside. The fruit salad was a standout: fresh, full of berries and pineapple, none of that filler melon nonsense. Love that. My eggs were a little rubbery, which knocked it down a notch for me, but overall still satisfying. Also tried the Spanish Omelette with chorizo. Solid flavor, and it came with a side of fresh cinnamon raisin bread. The bread had great potential but was served dry with no butter or jelly I would've loved just a little something to bring it to life. Service was top notch. Our waitress was super friendly and genuinely warm, which really made the experience feel personal despite the busy pace. Would definitely come back next time I'm in town, just maybe ask for jelly ahead of time.

    Breakfast Burrito

    Got the breakfast burrito...Thought it was very average...Waitress was good and they have nice outdoor seating.

    Grabbed Stella's last week for a quick lunch and I was super impressed. I absolutely love a good smashburger and Stella's delivered. The bun was soft, the cheese was creamy and the burger patty was just the right amount of salty, peppery and greasy- YUM! Gulfport is one of my favorite places in the Tampa Bay Area, it's relaxing and the vibes are always so positive, and places like Stella reinforce that. Our service was casual, friendly and swift. 10/10 recommend!

    Had so much fun at Stella's! Plenty of outdoor seating with shade and fans. The food was yummy and service was quick. I will definitely be back for the pancakes! Those were my favorite. Also with a great location in Gulfport.

    Cobb Salads and fries
    Alexis S.

    Yum! The salads are huge and very refreshing on a warmer type of day. Very friendly service

    Fried Green Tomatoes to die for.
    Catherine R.

    Mixed review. Beautiful day, we sat at one of many umbrella tables. Nice live acoustic music. Server brought drinks, spilled on my partner's leg, took our order and we never saw her again. Food delivered to us from kitchen staff. No napkins, drink refills, condiments - never came with the check. Had to walk around to find someone to pay. Here's the thing, though. The Fried Green Tomatoes are amazing perfection. Crispy on the outside, thick green tomato slabs, seasoned & fried beautifully. Smash burger pretty Good too. Skip the chicken tenders. Nice place to sit outside and relax, recommend

    Their take on an espresso martini
    Amanda D.

    Positives: Yummy food (pancakes with to die for cinnamon butter, omelettes, hashbrowns with a perfect crisp level), short wait to be seated & can accommodate parties of 6 no problem. Great patio that's dog friendly and open, and a cocktail menu with variety to choose from. Extra Perk: They had a kids menu! Downside: We were missing one part of an order that never got put in by the server, and at the end of the meal the tab given was correct, but I ended up paying for someone else's meal. We had to call the server back to have the transaction voided and then re-pay for the meal. Note: there is only one restroom for patrons so the line is out the door and down the ramp... plan accordingly if you have to use the bathroom!

    Homemade Corned Beef Hash
    Alicia A.

    I'm so happy I tried this gem! It's on a little strip that I think must be "downtown" Gulfport. It's next to Stetson law school's campus. There is outdoor seating, bar seating and a few tables inside. I opted for inside. I asked a gal near me if she knew the WiFi password and she said "I should probably know that since I'm the owner." Then she promptly asked a gentleman who know. All of the staff was super friendly. I ordered a "Stella's Favorite" the homemade corned beef hash. It was interestingly made into a latke potato and beef hash kind of thing- unique. I devoured it so I didn't take a picture in time. But I did include a picture from their website I got the cinnamon raisin toast with their homemade cinnamon butter and it was quite enjoyable. I'll be back! I absolutely must try their fried green tomatoes. Highly recommend for brunch or lunch!

    Absolutely a wonderful treat for a breakfast in the area. The outside seating, service, and menu were absolutely wonderful. The food was very fresh and tasty! Everyone enjoyed their food, and ate everything! Definitely a place to return to on my next trip.

    Like a lot of people, I've driven past Side Door Deli plenty of times, noticed the signage, and…read morethought, I need to check that place out. I'm a sucker for a good NY-style deli, so I finally made the trip. It's a little out of my way from the south side, but I'm glad I made the effort. Side Door Deli is tucked into an office complex, which sounds a little strange for a deli, but once you're inside, you'd never know it. The place is clean, comfortable, and has none of that "office building restaurant" feeling. I went with the Reuben, getting both corned beef and pastrami on marbled rye. Naturally, I paired it with a Dr. Brown's root beer. The sandwich was good, although I thought they were a little light on the meat. The meat is Boar's Head, so don't expect the kind of enormous, overstuffed deli sandwich you might get at some old-school New York joints. They have a pretty impressive selection of sides, and everything is made in-house. I went with the macaroni salad, which surprisingly had carrots in it. Not exactly what I was expecting in my macaroni salad, but it actually worked and was pretty darn good. The service was excellent. Everyone was extremely friendly, and the proprietor even came by personally to check on me and make sure everything was OK. He asked if it was my first time visiting, and he gave me my drink "on the house". That kind of personal attention goes a long way. A couple of things to know before you make the trip: they're closed Sundays and close at 3 PM during the week, so this is definitely more of a lunch spot than somewhere you're going to grab dinner, but they do serve breakfast in the mornings, so keep that in mind. Overall, Side Door Deli is a good little neighborhood deli that's worth checking out if you're in the area. I'd like to make it back and try some of their other sandwiches and sides. Good food, friendly people, clean spot. Just get there before 3.

    Date of Visit: 03/112026 1:30pm…read more I have driven by this place dozens of times and just didn't take the time to stop because it was the weekend. On this day (Wednesday) I found myself working from home and said to my self, "Self, today we eat at the Side Door Deli". As I pulled in from Central I could see the lot was busy but spots were available. I believe I entered thru the front door, but as I looked the place over I could see "The Side Door". My order for today was to go and a nice lady was there ready to take it. I looked the menu over and decided on the "Kevin" a corned beef, lettuce and tomato club with Russian dressing. I had a slice of cheese on mine. With it I got the potato salad. Under $14 with a 12oz drink. Having only a short wait, I received my order and made my way home, could not wait. I have been waiting a long time to find this type of deli / luncheonette place to eat. Opening the box it came in, it was put together right. I first hit the potato salad first and it was awesome. Just the right amount zing. Now it's Kevin's turn...Wow, this is my new go place for a club. I wasn't sure if I wanted it toasted or not and the nice lady taking my order said,"lightly". I says yes. Next time full toast. I totally recommend this place, won't be disappointed. And I do see they are open on Saturdays. Breakfast? Peace.

I arrived around 2:20 p.m. and was let in by a worker at the front door, who told me they were closing shortly and suggested I head to the deli first if that was what I wanted. Once I walked in, however, a cashier yelled to me that they were closed. I was a little confused because I had just been let in by a worker who knew I was coming inside. From there, the experience felt a bit chaotic. There were quite a few people in the store, and I felt like the workers were very displeased by my presence. I honestly felt like I was a bother. I completely understand that I arrived close to closing, so I tried to be respectful of their time and rushed through the store to grab a few items. I had driven an hour to get there, so I wanted to at least make the most of the trip. When I went to check out, I initially got in one line, and the cashier was finishing up with the customer already there and directed me to another line, so I followed her instructions. I had a basket with my items and wasn't sure if I was supposed to empty it myself. There wasn't an obvious place to leave the empty basket, and the cashier never indicated that she would take it from me. I apologized and explained that it was my first time there. She told me that next time I should come during the week so I could browse more. As I was leaving, I noticed so many people trying to enter the store and being turned away because it was now past closing. That made me think Mazzaro's may want to reconsider its Saturday hours. They are clearly a very popular and well-known store, yet being open from only 9:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Saturdays and being closed on Sundays makes it difficult for people who work typical Monday-Friday, full-time hours to visit. I take responsibility for not checking the hours before making the drive, and I understand that the employees were probably ready to go home. However, I still think there is a difference between enforcing closing time and making a customer feel unwelcome. Unfortunately, I did not feel warmly greeted or welcomed during my visit, and it put a damper on the entire experience.
