" Stefono's has a friendly vibe with great customer service. The hot dogs are superb, and the Italian sandwich I had was hearty and delicious. The portion sizes are generous too, definitely worth the value. My only slight issue was the waiting time since we visited on a busy weekend, but the food was definitely worth the wait. Looking forward to returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an experience we had! We stumbled upon Stefono's after reading a few online reviews and thought we would give it a try. The atmosphere was laid back, which was nice after a long day of sightseeing. Their Chicago-style hot dog is like a hug in a bun — so good! On top of that, we shared a meatball sandwich which was filled with juicy meatballs and had the perfect marinara sauce on top. The portions were generous, and there was absolutely no way we could finish it all. The only downside was a bit of a wait for our food, but it was certainly worth it. If you're craving legit Chicago eats, this is your spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" An excellent experience from start to finish! The selection at Stefono's is perfect for any craving. I had a Chicago dog loaded with toppings and it was one of the best I've had outside of Chicago. The service was friendly and the outdoor seating added a nice touch to our meal. Just be wary of the limited seating capacity during busy hours; you might need to take out when things are packed! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Stefono's last week with some friends, and we were all super satisfied. The Italian beef sandwich was generous and seasoned perfectly. Additionally, the hot dogs were fantastic, complete with all the traditional toppings. The ambiance was nice although it can feel crowded at peak times. Overall, I would rate my experience highly and will be back for round two! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful gem in Nipomo! We found Stefono's after a local recommendation and were pleasantly surprised by how genuine the food was. We both had the Italian beef sandwiches—huge and loaded with flavor! The gelato was a sweet finish to our meal. Just a note for future diners, if you're going during peak hours keep in mind that it can get busy. We can’t wait to go back and try more items! " (*Curated Review*)

" This charming spot brings a little slice of Chicago to Nipomo! As a Chicago native, I can say that Stefono's offers authentic favorites that remind me of home. I ordered the Italian beef sandwich, and it was not only huge but also incredibly flavorful and juicy. The bread was fresh, and the giardiniera added the perfect kick. My partner tried the Chicago hot dog and absolutely loved it too! The outdoor seating is perfect for a sunny day. We will definitely be back and highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wonderful little place! Every time I visit, I am welcomed with warmth by the staff. The food is always fresh and delicious. I always get the Chicago dog topped with everything, and it never fails to impress! I love that they take care to maintain authentic flavors. Just wished I lived closer so I could stop by more frequently! " (*Curated Review*)
