My husband and I love Stella's! The food is local and always excellent. The atmosphere cozy. We often dine at Stella's for special occasions. Congrats to the chef!

Food is very good at Stella's but will never eat their again since being embrassed by wait staff for asking that the chef adapt a salad. "Oh No Chef" never changes his creations. Restaurant and staff are way too pretentious.

So very proud of Miles for this well-deserved accolade. Miles always strives for quality and Stella has been in the forefront for farm-fresh and local products since their beginning. How lucky we are to have this amazing world-class restaurant in the neighborhood. I am continually impressed with the level of professionalism from their entire staff. Congratulations, Miles!!!

This nomination is deserved as Stellas- Myles, Amanda and Paul- have nurtured connections with local food growers that is second to none in this region. They have consistently and faithfully supported farmers who are right now planning and planting their crops so Stellas can offer the best of whats grown regionally to its diners. This is core to the Stellas Magic!

A very high honor indeed. Much congratulations!

Well deserved and congratulations to Chef Myles. He and Stella have been at the forefront of the local food movement since their inception. I've never had a middling meal at Stella and a few rank on my top 10 list.
