🇮🇹 THE WEEKEND STARTS TOMORROW AT STEFANO’S! 🍷🍝

Our Chef has been busy, and this week’s specials are ready to make their debut tomorrow!

🍗 Pollo Nero Bianco — Rolled chicken breast stuffed with mozzarella, gorgonzola, prosciutto, fresh basil and a touch of honey, finished with a white wine mushroom sauce.

🧀 Spinaci e Carciofi — Tortellini in a creamy cheese sauce with fresh spinach and artichokes, baked with melted mozzarella.

🦐 Seafood Summertime — Basa, shrimp and black mussels with roasted red peppers, broccoli, zucchini, squash and green peas in a garlic & oil sauce over linguine.

And because Stefano’s specials have a habit of disappearing… they’re available while supplies last. 👀

Come early. Come hungry. And if you tell yourself you’re just going out for one glass of wine… we’ll pretend we believe you. 😂🍷

🎹 Live music every night.

Reserve your table and make a night of it.

🎒❤️ NEARLY 100 KIDS MEALS — ON US.

When we started our Back-to-School Kids Eat Free Week, the idea was simple: make the first week back just a little easier for local families.

And you all showed up.

By the end of this week, Stefano’s will have given away nearly 100 kids meals to families in our community.

But the number isn’t really the best part.

It’s nearly 100 times a parent didn’t have to figure out dinner after a long school day. Kids got to order something they loved. And families had another reason to sit down around the table together.

That’s what being a neighborhood restaurant means to us.

To every family who came through our doors this week

thank you. ❤️

We hope the kids had an amazing first week back, and we hope Mom and Dad enjoyed having at least one assignment taken off the list. 😂

We handled dinner. You handled the homework.

Here’s to a great school year, Central Florida. 📚✏️

🇺🇸 A Small Way of Saying Thank You. ❤️

As our nation celebrates the 250th Anniversary of the United States, we wanted to celebrate the people who make Stefano’s what it is every single day—our incredible team.

This year, we’re changing that.

For the first time, we’re giving our team the entire 4th of July weekend to rest, recharge, and enjoy time with the people they love.

Because family has always been at the heart of Stefano’s.

We know many of our loyal “Stefs” will miss us (and we’ll certainly miss seeing you!), but we hope you’ll join us in celebrating the hardworking people behind every meal, every smile, and every memorable experience.

🇺🇸 Stefano’s will be closed Friday, July 3th, July 4th Saturday, anJuly 5th.

We’ll reopen refreshed and ready to welcome you back with the hospitality you’ve come to expect.

From our Stefano’s family to yours, we wish everyone a safe, joyful, and meaningful Independence Day weekend.
