The staff was incredibly accommodating, and our server made our large group feel like an intimate table. Everyone loved their food and beverages—no one felt left out. The flavors, quality, and care were outstanding, creating a truly magical experience for our guest of honor. The atmosphere added to the magic, creating the perfect backdrop for our celebration. It truly felt like a special occasion, and our guest of honor couldn’t stop raving about how perfect everything was. A Stir is a must-visit for anyone looking for impeccable food, outstanding service, and an inclusive dining experience. We can’t wait to return!

    Superb, as usual. The carrot sformato was an unusual find and quite delicious. The addition of olives to the blood orange and fennel salad hit just the right acid note, Mama’s meatballs were pure beef with a strong dash of anise seed, and the accompanying marinara had been simmering for ages to pick up that deep complexity of flavors and great balance between sweet and slightly acid.
