Stellini Trattoria

We had a great evening. Charming space with great service. Hubby really loved the meatballs. The Flatbread was good but would have preferred the prosciutto to but cut up a bit more. Got messy and pulled all the pieces off around it. I had the lasagna and the pesto was a nice touch. A tad messier than the picture online and maybe too much sauce but really enjoyed the flavor. His was the cacio e pepe with shrimp added. Sooooo good. Loved it. We will be back. Good experience. Good food. Good service.

Honestly expected more given the reviews, but seems quite mixed with either 5 stars or 2 stars. Unfortunately, I am very much in the 2 star category.Started with some salads, house was good, the Caesar lacked any flavor, almost no dressing the romaine and croutons were quite sad. We had a couple pizzas to share and they were passable, maybe the best thing I had all night. Decent crust and flavor. Meatball appetizer was good, nice flavor and cooked well.The waitress talked up the robiola pasta and it was bad. Had only 3 shrimp in it and the pasta and sauce really lacked flavor. One of the worst pasta dishes I've had in quite some time. Pasta dish wasn't cheap either, $38 for pasta with 3 shrimp in it. I ate more of the pizza instead of eating my pasta.I would say skip, you can definitely find better.

We walked all the way down Main Street to eat here and decided on Pizza.This review is just for the Pizza. I would pass if I were you as the Amanti Della Carnie, sausage is cubed up, salami, prosciutto, and pepperoni is ok.Crust is doughy and although they have a pizza oven this is not the thing to order here.Everything tasted like it was frozen pizza, have had better from Dominos.

Went for a dinner meeting and was not disappointed!! They have a really nice side room for an event that had it's own small bar and restroom. I didn't get pictures of everything but everyone I talked to thoroughly enjoyed the food. Appetizers: 5/5 Charcuterie- was a really great assortment! Meatballs - made in house meatballs covered in melty mozzarella. Was maybe my favorite appetizer! Calamari Steak- I've never had anything like this. Sooo good! Thin flat sliced, perfectly light breading, served over tomato sauce, with herb aioli, cherry peppers, garlic, topped with arugula. Salad: Cesar Salad 5/5The lightest Cesar salad I've ever had. Generous amount of chopped romaine. Delicious croutons & shaved parmesan with and the perfect amount of a light garlic dressing (not doused). Entree: 5/5Filet & Gnocchi- 8-oz tenderloin served over parmesan black truffle gnocchi, spinach & mushrooms topped with our signature red wine reduction sauce. That gnocchi was divine! Loved everything about that dish! Dessert: 5/5They brought us fun (decorated with a sparkler) platters of an assortment of desserts. Cannolis, almond biscotti cheesecake, heavenly house-made carrot cake, tiramisu & a chocolate cake. We were stuffed but committed to trying a bite of each. The carrot cake is worth going back for alone. The tiramisu was also great. I look forward to going back and trying more of their food! Pasta is a must next time. Thank you Stellini for a great meal!

My wife found this gem in the middle of the afternoon on an otherwise dreary day I guess it was around 3:00 pm before the wait staff had arrived for their shift. No matter, the GM himself greeted us warmly and found us a comfortable table. After perusing the menu my wife asked him for a recommendation. We were telling him if he had a signature experience that he wanted to communicate to the world, what would it be! For starters we had the Calamari Steak and Caprese. I've never had better Calamari and the Caprese had Burrata cheese instead of the standard Mozzarella which was an unexpected yet fantastic choice. The GM then picked the Scallops Stellini for my wife and suggested the Braised Pork Shank for me. He also paired the perfect wine choices for us. I gotta tell you I could tell their Chef had Michelin credentials!! Both entres' were next level in every category. We finished our experience with a roasted pecan and salted caramel pana cotta for me and a limoncello Crème brûlée for my wife. I think on a 5 star scale I will give 6 stars in every area. BTW, at 4:00pm

Stellini is a great casual Italian place just off Main Street in Grapevine. After my disappointing visit to Cafe Italia a week or so ago Stellini restored my faith in finding excellent Italian food in Texas.There is on street and garage parking nearby. Easy, peasy.The bar is big and friendly, and the bartenders are attentive and on point. The wine list is solid for a casual place with a good assortment of wines by the glass. The Ettore Barolo is very nice. Cocktails are very well done, as you might expect in an upscale neighborhood like this. I do wish Stellini brought a complimentary bread service as part of the meal, but with that said you won't otherwise be disappointed. Highlights include a wonderful Rigatoni Bolgnese and a Campanelle Alla Arrabiata, the latter with a terrific spicy vodka sauce with just the perfect amount of sausage.If you're into pizza I'd suggest the Diavolo. These are not One Bite, NY types of pizzas. Rather they are more in the Neopolitan style, perfect for a hungry solo diner, or for two if you just want an appetizer-sized pie. The Diavolo has just the right amount of heat.The overall restaurant vibe is great with complimentary house-made limoncello being offered at the end of the meal on 2 of 3 of my visits. So don't count on the lovely liqueur every time, but it's a welcome treat if it's presented!If you're looking for some great, casual Italian food in the Grapevine area I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Stellini! Buon appetito!

My wife & I shared the Coccoli to start with, I then enjoyed the Honey Mustard Grilled Salmon and she the Lasagna. My wife was underwhelmed by the Coccoli, but thoroughly enjoyed her lasagna. I on the other hand, enjoyed both the Coccoli and my Salmon entree. I also enjoyed an Godfather Old Fashioned.We went early in the afternoon on a Saturday before enjoying a stroll through downtown Grapevine. It was our first time there, a bit of a splurge for us, but we look forward to going back. Only negative was the waiter was a little over the top with cliche, and familiarity . But over they were friendly and the food was very good .

Passed by this place when leaving Hop and Sting Brewing Co. a couple weeks ago. Great atmosphere, service from Annette was perfect, and food was really good. Will definitely be back.

TERRIBLE experience w a large group. Super high auto grat. Horrible service. Charged for items that weren't delivered. Disappointing food.

Six of us came to dinner and the service was horrible, it took over 2 hours to get dinner and once it arrived was very disappointing. I ordered the Branzino and it was spoiled served with watered down rissotto. Sent it back and couldn't bring myself to order anything else. The manager was rude and even though they took off the fish from the bill they didn't forget a 20% tip which was undeserved. I will not go back.
