The service and food were very good! We ordered the mozzarella sticks and the garlic bread to start - both apps were great! I ordered the salmon with mashed potatoes and it was a dead ringer for the real thing - I loved it. We will definitely be back.

The decor is a work in progress. The acoustics could use some work - sound needs to be somehow muffled a bit otherwise other people’s conversations feel like they’re ringing in my ear.

Loved our experience at Stefano’s! It is a romantic, cozy scene with excellent vegatarian and vegan fare that is surprisingly tasty. Service is top notch as well! Loved the garlic knots and mozzarella sticks the most but the salmon was the most surprising!!

Highly recommended!! Stefano’s is one of my favourite spots now. The staff the restaurant and the food exceeded my expectations. I went with my daughters who are not vegan and then loved the food as well. Will definitely be back.
