Located at 76 South Street, Stellina Ristorante is a fine Italian restaurant that hopes to be exactly what the name implies — the “little star” in the town of Oyster Bay. Stellina Ristorante, with only a 40-person occupancy, will create an atmosphere of dining in a small restaurant in Italy — sometimes in the seaside of the Amalfi Coast, other times in the hills of Tuscany. Through seasonally-inspired, authentic Italian cooking, Stellina’s mission is to bring a small piece of Italy to Oyster Bay. The specially-crafted menu will include a variety of spuntini, pasta, pizzas, and more.

The restaurant is at its peak, combining country charms with city style...And you can be sure that everyone, either dining at a table or playing on stage, is hitting high notes"-Peter M. Gianotti, Newsday. In his August 9th review of the newly renovated Grasso's, Celebrating 28 years in Cold Spring Harbor, Gail Grasso (Owner) and Tony Canales (Exec. Chef/Partner) gear up to give you yet another year of phenomenal food, jazz and just an overall feeling of “WOW”. Grasso’s, now more than ever, has that real Hip Manhattan feel you don't find on Long Island. A neighborhood gathering place where you almost always stand the chance of running into someone you know. When you dine at Grasso’s you truly feel as though you've walked into Gail’s home. It’s been called the “Cheers” of Cold Spring Harbor. It's Where Great Food and Great Music Live!

To me, the most important element of dining out is the quality of the food. We dined as 4, having 2 apps, 4 mains (2 pastas) & 1 dessert. Everything was wonderful & plentiful. Would definitely recommend it & hope to get there again, even though my wife & I came from Long Beach.
