Piccola Stella — Restaurant in Elizabethtown

Stopped in for the 1st time this afternoon, and was immediately met with warmth (both literal and figurative!), punctuated by a bright smile and hello from Piccola's owner, Tammy. My mom and I ordered two of their savory crepes, while having the loveliest conversation with Tammy about family, film, and her journey to opening a crepe shop in downtown Etown. Her positivity is infectious, and it's clear she cares about the product and experience she's sharing with customers.

Thank you, Piccola Stella, for reminding us that something as simple as a brownie can still taste like a...

We're looking forward to a return visit to sample the Italian sodas and Boba along with her ever changing seasonal menu of crepes! She was even kind enough to pose for a picture with us! She also updates her socials daily. I love following her...
