" I had a wonderful time at Stefano's, though there were some hiccups. The wait for a table was longer than expected, but once seated, everything was delightful! My seafood risotto was good, but it lacked a bit of seasoning for my taste – possibly a regional variation? Regardless, our server was very attentive and quick, which made up for the little waiting time. Looking forward to returning to try something new! " (*Curated Review*)

" Stefano’s was an incredible dining experience! The vocals from the friendly servers added a special touch to our dinner. My friend and I shared the burrata as an appetizer, and it was perfectly creamy and paired nicely with the accompanying bread. For my entree, I had the frutti di mare – it was bursting with flavor and came out piping hot. The ambiance took me to a lovely coastal Italian restaurant. I will be coming back each summer while we vacation here! " (*Curated Review*)

" We drove over from another town to try Stefano's based on reviews! Luckily, we were seated quickly and our server was attentive from the start. I ordered the calamari as an appetizer, and it was perfectly crispy! My main course was the osso buco, which was superb – tender and flavorful. Even dessert did not disappoint. The entire meal was a win, and I would definitely come back to try more from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant is a must-visit when on LBI! We came here based on a friend's recommendation and were not disappointed. The atmosphere was lively and vibrant, and our server was charming and attentive. I ordered the seafood abbondanza, which was packed with shrimp, scallops, and other seafood delights. While my meal was rich, my friend's chicken parm was a tad on the bland side. Overall, a great experience and we will return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn't overly impressed with Stefano's, to be honest. The service was okay, but my dish felt under-seasoned and not as fresh as I expected. The atmosphere is nice and cozy, but food-wise, I think I can find better places on the island for Italian dining. Maybe I just ordered the wrong items? The dessert was decent, but again not awe-inspiring. " (*Curated Review*)

" I loved my time at Stefano's! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, which made our dinner experience special. The highlight was definitely the New England clam chowder – one of the best I’ve tasted! I must say, I was pleasantly surprised by the attentiveness of our server; they were quick to refill drinks without being intrusive. I can’t wait to go again next time we visit the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wonderful dinner! The cheese-stuffed eggplant appetizer was fantastic. I enjoyed the seafood linguine that had a delightful mix of fresh seafood flavors. Service was outstanding with a friendly demeanor, and the ambiance was classy yet relaxed. We will definitely be back on our next visit. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)
