Update 10 Oct 2020.
I provided a really positive review a few months ago. I was delighted with the food. I am knocking off a couple of stars now. Recently, the food has been inconsistent. Tonight the food that arrived was not as described with a couple of items missing. When I rang to complain, the man I spoke to was actually quite defensive. While he did offer money off the next order (thanks for the effort) it was the general attitude. I want to be supportive to local businesses, particularly at this time, but as customers we do have a right to voice an opinion. I hope you can regain the ascendancy and offer honest-to-goodness food as before. I hope you'll accept this as constructive criticism.
Honestly. It is not just about supporting local businesses, but Stella's around the corner is an innocuous little gem. I dont know if someone really is called Stella and she cooks, but I really really like her food. I suspect she enjoys cooking. I have the garlic prawns with crusty bread, or the steak with all the other bits. Hearty meals. Recently discovered the house burger. A teeny bit pricey, but I dont mind because whoever is making the food is doing it with love. Honestly, just try it. Saved us during lockdown. Message to Stella, please just keep doing the same. Don't try and get too fancy schmancy! Lovely...
Read moreI’ve ordered from Stella’s Lisbon Style Bar and Grill twice this week already and I’m certain I’ll be back again soon. This place is an absolute treasure. The food is spectacular it took me straight back to the heart of Lisboa with every bite.
I’ve tried a good range of dishes so far: the bacalhau was perfectly salted and flaked beautifully, just like I remember from Portugal. The chicken livers were rich, flavorful, and cooked to perfection not something every place gets right, but Stella’s nails it. The potatoes were golden and crispy outside, soft and fluffy inside, the ideal companion to just about everything on the menu.
Their fish cakes and croquettes are little bites of heaven.crispy, savory, and deeply satisfying. And I have to mention the chocolate mousse dense, silky, and not overly sweet. A proper, traditional Portuguese mousse that ends the meal on a perfect note.
I also sampled a variety of drinks, all of which were thoughtfully prepared and paired beautifully with the food. Whether you're craving something refreshing or something bold, their beverage menu delivers.
From flavor to presentation to overall vibe, Stella’s captures the warmth and authenticity of a true Lisbon bar and grill. If you’re craving a genuine Portuguese dining experience, this is the spot. I can’t...
Read moreWe came to this restaurant last week. The food is amazing! We came today with my son that is Autistic. He is very quite when he's out in public. It wasn't busy and a really drunk man kept asking my son questions. We didn't mind afew questions but this man didn't shut up. We asked him politely to stop as our son has autism. He took a while to move of our table with prompting. Then this man kept staring at us and my son in a horrible way. The man came back to our table and refused to move trying to talk to my autistic son. I had to get the person working there to move this man of our table again. The man came back to our table again! The guy working there seemed nice and said, He's alright'. This drunk guy wasn't. He was really nasty to me and my partner. We ended up taking our food and going. £65 we spent. Not really sure why we had to be the ones to go. This man should have been told to go. The food was amazing. My son is still crying and not coping at all. The work guy apologised which was nice but the drunk guy should have been told to leave. It was like he was obsessed with my son. My son loves going to restaurants. This has had a big impact on him in the future going to any...
