Full disclosure: Pizzeria Stella wasn 't my destination when I set out for dinner in the neighborhood just across I-95 from Penn 's Landing. Even fuller disclosure, I 'm overjoyed that I stumbled upon this dining gem. April guided me through the menu, as it was my first venture into this stellar joint; she made several recommendations, answered my questions with confidence, and ensured that my entire visit was thoroughly enjoyable. I started with the Romaine salad (minus the cherry tomato mint), which was dressed with a house vinaigrette and ricotta salata that has to be tasted to be believed! The 'Nduja pizza, aka #7 on the menu, is a white pie with Calabrian sausage, smoked mozzarella and...
We searched and searched for the best pizza in Philly . We asked a dozen locals and got about 6-7 different places. So we tried Pizzeria Stella based upon their menu and reviews. WE LOVED IT! We tried 3 different pies and all were great. But the one with arugula and prosciutto was beyond great! The pepperoni was good too! The beet salad appetizer was delicious and the octopus was solid. To top it off their homemade gelato was great! The olive oil one was a surprising hit and the mascarpone and honey and chocolate pistachio were really good. The blood orange sorbet was really good too. Service was really good, and the wine choices were also just what we wanted! Overall 5 stars and we will be...
This is a nice pizza place. I liked their pistachio pizza although in general I am not a huge fan of rosemary. In their margarita the marinara was really nice but a bit too watery. Their fried calamari was crispy although the portion a bit tiny bit small. The gelato unfortunately wasn't exceptional. Kind of mediocre. I would visit again to try another of their pizzas. The value for money is pretty good and some of their pizzas are interesting flavor-wise. The space is nice and their prices are fair. Their service is good as well. Could the pizza be a bit better? Yes. The gelato could have been a lot better actually. But all in all I am satisfied with the experience.
Was looking for a good pizza, thin crust with great mix of toppings. Saw this on Yelp, and decided to try it out. Wood fired oven, really produced an excellent pizza! We enjoyed the sasuage pizza which enjoyed a little pesto kick with long hot peppers ground in. The roasted beets with Barratt on a bed of arugula greens was delicious. Will add to the options going forward.

this pizza was definitely one of the best i've had in the city. if you like thin and crispy, doesn't get any better than this. the classic pepperoni is what i went with, and it was delicious. i also tried the gelato for the first time, and i could've ordered another five of them it was that good!
Nice place, pretty good pizza. We got the Margherita the spicy sausage. The Margherita was excellent and the spicy was good but the spiciness is a bit too much and takes over all the other flavors. Which if you?re into that then you might like it. Overall would stop by again!
Excellent pizza (and other food), definitely one of the best that I have tasted outside Italy! The restaurant is big with lots of seating, staff are very friendly and helpful with recommendations, and all of the food was really tasty. Highly recommend visiting!
I love pizza. I'm always looking for the next best pizzeria whenever I visit a new town. This is definitely at the top. Honestly, there isn't a wrong option. I got the pepperoni pizza. Exceptional.

Great pizza and good quality ingredients. Friendly staff. I also had the cinnamon of Bourbon-lato- I couldn't taste the Bourbon and couldn't taste my friend.
Yummy drinks, great pizzas and a very delicious pasta. We were looking for a nice late lunch and we stumbled this place during the walk in the city. The...
