Best Restaurants for Groups in Virginia

If you’re looking for an intimate spot to catch up with friends or family and you’re downtown in Richmond, this is your destination! It’s the perfect spot for dinner before the Forum, holiday trip to Jefferson to see the lights, shopping, or a date night. They were also very friendly (our server and the owner) and took great care with our guest who had not only nut allergies, but was also gluten-free. Everything was delicious!

I had high expectations for Stella's based on all of the positive reviews over the years and Stella's totally lived up to the expectations and, in fact, exceeded expectations. Our server Hannah knew the menu quite well and was able to make on point recommendations to us about the food and the beverages. She did a great job describing all of the specials to us. The portions here are large so come hungry. You will get your money's worth!! The first page of the menu is meze which can be shared. I saw several people get the saganaki which looked delicious and provided a fun viewing since it comes out on fire. The next page is full of traditional Greek dishes. I had the salad on special as my appetizer - spinach, toasted pita, almonds, pomegranate arils and cheese. Delicious and huge - we could have shared it. My entree was the pastichio but over pasta. Also huge and yummy. Our dessert was the chocolate ouzo moussed. SO GOOD. I can't wait to return to Stella's.

This place was bumping! Everything was exceptional…a little loud, but to be expected as busy as the place is. My only issue was my mussels were on the cool side… as though they were probably done before my wife’s meal & sat in the pick-up window for a few minutes before coming to the table. They were still delicious, just not hot. The service was perfect. Our table super nice. Staff was friendly & had a sense of urgency, yet calm. My wife will go back again & again!

Incredible as always. Arctic Char was outstanding and the Fondue starter was fun.

This has been our anniversary spot. I also have celiac and some other allergies and the staff is very knowledgeable and careful. also want to give and honorable mention to the fries that are gluten free and probably the best waffle fries (my partner and I agree). we love this little spot!
