Overall, very high recommendation for Stella's! They made space for us on a busy Friday even though we didn't have reservations. The service was wonderful and so was the food (warning: most of the portion sizes are LARGE, take them seriously when they say that). We ordered octopus as our appetizer and moussaka, leg of lamb, and Pasta No. 5 as entrees. Grilled Octopus: A table favorite. Tastes a lot like the fat off a very expensive meat to me. I'd recommend eating with the lettuce garnish it comes on and the lemon provided. Moussaka: I absolutely loved this dish. It's surprisingly sweet and creamy, but still not super heavy. The eggplant is substantial. You can finish this one in the restaurant. Roasted Leg Of Lamb: Cooked nicely, and the sauce it's in tastes very good. The lemon-roasted potatoes have great flavor but could be a little softer imo. Both things needed more salt. Pasta No. 5: One of my only complaints is that no one told us how big this layered baked spaghetti-esque dish was before we got it. We heard "very big" and "shareable" but it was only after the dish arrived that two servers told us "I've never seen anyone finish the whole thing by themselves". Luckily they have takeout, lol, but know now that Pasta No. 5 can comfortably feed two or even three people.

The food was very good. The pasta no 5 is a dish which should be shared. I ordered it with meat sauce. The lamb meatballs were tasty. The soup was hot and delicious. We sat at the bar as reservations would have been needed. The bottle of wine was decently priced

Hands down best Greek restaurant in Richmond! It says a lot they when they are full on a Wednesday night. Drinks, food, appetizer, dessert were all on point. Staff is friendly and service was quick. Will definitely keep coming back!

6 of my best friends and I celebrated my continuing birthday celebration at Stella's Saturday evening. We had everything from appetizers to cocktails and dessert I work right pleased with all of us elections. It was recommended by a couple of people and this is my first opportunity going even though I am a lifetime Richmond resident. Excellent food and Darin, our server was absolutely wonderful. We are already talked about going back for other Adventures on their menu.

I have not seen these on their dinner menu, but if it is a traditional dish of Greece, they might have it in the brunch menu.

Does Stella's have any gluten free options for someone with celiac disease?

Mary Deans | Mar 20, 2019
CEJ Harding | Mar 21, 2019

Lots! There are some pasta based items, but there are plenty of items that are delicious meats (lamb, pork, chicken, or fish) with vegetable sides. I would suggest avoiding anything with phyllo, orzo, or obviously, the no. 5 pasta.

I am constantly looking on opentable for reservations but they don't have any except around 5pm or 9pm...do they limit reservations during peak times?

Stephanie Bergreen | Mar 20, 2019

Their ambience, food quality and diverse choices are absolutely amazing!!! Yes, they are busy each time we've been there and I agree reservations are neither easy to come by and at those times you cited. We are New Yorkers who have driven straight from Sebastian, Fl to Stella's the past two years in anticipation of a great meal and have never been disappointed. A phone call would be helpful. Good luck!!! And enjoy!!!
