Reviews from our customers

Restaurant Stella Marina in Portoferraio

Yummy food and very nice staff unlike what the few negative reviews describe. Located near the port and great for going for a walk to the gravels or to the historic center. Needless to say, my friend and I made the shoe!!

Pleasant surprise completely gluten-free, I hardly believed it! All very good, especially the sardines and the staff is very courteous and warm. I'll be back soon to taste the desserts, even those all made by them and gluten-free!

Really classy restaurant, the professional staff and quick to take the order and the dish served in no time. Although it may seem like a seafood restaurant, on the menu you can find a lot of variety of meat dishes, excellent presentation of the dishes not to mention the all gluten free homemade desserts FANTASTIC. Congratulations and congratulations again to the owner and staff.

Favorite restaurant on Elba island. Typical cuisine and fresh raw materials, of excellent quality, even for celiacs. We are loyal customers and every year dining here is a great satisfaction. Superlative are the risotto alla marinara, the risotto with shrimp flambéed with curry, the tagliatelle with overcooked tuna and in general fresh fish. The pizzas are also very good, also available gluten-free (difficult to find at this level). The choice of serving wines only in bottles is also excellent. All desserts are homemade and gluten-free: excellent the schiaccia accompanied by Aleatico, the cheesecakes, the Disaronno amaretto cake, as well as all the other sweets (tried with pleasure over the years). Helpful and kind staff, attentive to customer needs. If you are celiac, or in the company of a celiac, it is certainly a place of reference on Elba.

Pleasant discovery, given that Elba island is relatively poor in gluten-free restaurants. Excellent both sardines in pistachio crust, accompanied by caramelized onions, and fish ravioli, also made with fresh pasta made by them without gluten. The picchiarielli with tuna are superlative (NB: if taken gluten-free, homemade dry pasta is served, however of excellent quality). The choice of wines is also important (only by the bottle, as I believe it should be everywhere). All desserts are prepared gluten-free from them; the schiaccia 'briaca is excellent, accompanied by prickly pear ice cream and served with Aleatico. Attentive and friendly staff, they offered us two limoncelli at the end of the meal. The place is located between the main road and a parking lot, and it may seem a bit anonymous and uninviting when viewed from the outside, but the food is really really good. And if you are celiac, or in the company of a celiac, I would say that there is no better choice in Portoferraio.

As soon as we arrived we were greeted by the owner who immediately made us feel at home, made us sit down and began to tell us about their dishes with a lot of passion. I ordered a "carbonara di mare" which was really good (from 10 with honors), perfect service and very attentive. Really recommend. We will definitely be back.

This little harbor front restaurant is best described as an unexpected surprise. Seen from the outside it is nice but nothing special and at first sight the menu is also normal, but it hides some pleasant surprises. It starts with the off menus, revealed by the very kind staff, ready to help and advise; in our case, taglioloni all'aragostella. Then there are more particular dishes hidden in the same menu, such as Sicilian anchovies or pasta with tuna, cuttlefish and bottarga with fresh and tasty tomatoes! Their fried fish is also wonderful, so rare to find I like a spectacular cake at Dulce de Leche. To top it off, every single dish on the menu can be made in a gluten-free version!

Great restaurant, fast service. Kind and very prepared on gluten-free: I ate 2 times from them, very good spaghetti and pizza! I highly recommend it.

Customer

Restaurant Stella Marina in Portoferraio

Excellent everything, as usual, for years now, even in different "locations". The gluten-free is amazing... spaghetti with octopus and fried squid light, tasty and not soaked in oil. Amazing pizzas and schiaccine both with and without gluten. The service was impeccable, as always, with kindness and competence. We hope they will move to Florence.

New management. Very nice and elegant place, we had lunch off the street side: ideal temperature. The whole menu is also available gluten-free. Guazzetto mussels/clams and spaghetti with clams both with and without excellent gluten. Good and light fried. Really good desserts too. And great choice of wines. Since I knew they make great gluten-free pizza, I also took a takeaway gluten-free flatbread to eat for dinner. Heated in the home oven it was super. Quality/price ratio superior to many kitchens in Elba. Highly recommended.

Discovered this restaurant a bit by chance, we have been there 2 times. The first we had the trio of appetizers (all 3 delicious) and a mixed fried. The second time we went back to taste the cacciucco. What can I say, really good and really abundant! We rolled out of the restaurant! The cheesecake with berries is also very good. A little chaotic service for various oversights but always extremely available.

Customer of Venegono Superiore

Restaurant Stella Marina in Portoferraio

I am strongly symptomatic celiac: eaten several times and always very well. Friendly service and very fair prices. Convenient as it is attached to the port. I tried pizza, schiaccine, first courses, fried fish and various appetizers. I really recommend it.

My girlfriend and I, who is celiac, have been there three times for dinner. Impeccable in service and customer care. First and second courses of fish and excellent pizzas. The whole menu also has a gluten free version, including homemade pasta and desserts, delicious! The gluten free pizza has a dedicated oven and pizza chef, top! The wine list is also good. Last, but not least, I count absolutely honest for the quality and quantity of the dishes. They brightened our holiday on Elba. Highly recommended! Greetings to the waitress specializing in sweets, very nice!

A local person reported it to me, I think it is under new management and in fact he was right. I recommend booking otherwise you risk not finding a place. Homemade pasta, excellent that "Stella Marina". The second courses are also very good, the homemade desserts are always excellent. It is also a pizzeria that I have not tried but they tell me very good. Fair prices.

Very honest and cheap prices for Elba island (appetizer, first course, wine, amaro and water 33 euros), very kind and young service, punctual times, good quality and generous portions. Recommended for a good, informal fish dinner, combining a not excessive expense, which never hurts. I would go there again!

One of the most famous restaurants in Portoferraio, which fell out of favor for a few years, is back in vogue with the new manager Vittorio. Absolutely to try fish dishes and a complete gluten-free menu.

Finally a restaurant with abundant dishes and excellent value for money, the location is nice but what makes the place magnificent are the excellent cuisine and the qualified and kind staff. A special thanks goes to the waiter/sommelier who served us. We went back twice on our vacation and they left us with good memories.

Customer of Rome

Restaurant Stella Marina in Portoferraio

We stayed at Stella Marina a couple of nights ago, only now I have decided to write my review on Trip Advisor. We were pleasantly surprised, we were three 3 starters 2 first and 3 seconds for a total of 87 euros. What surprised me most was the quality of the food, fresh pasta and fish that still seemed to move on the plate. The waiters are all very kind, not to mention the professionalism. In short, what to say, to try at least!

Customer of Portoferraio

Restaurant Stella Marina in Portoferraio

Big surprise. At the Stella Marina I met Vittorio, a legendary chef from Elba. Great connoisseur of traditional tastes without neglecting the genuineness of the product, I ate very well baked fish in the local oven and a fry with paranza synonymous with freshness of the product which today is no small feat. I often went when he was in Lacona then I had lost sight of him. He welcomed us warmly and made us feel at home. Thanks Vittorio see you soon!

Location of the Stella Marina Restaurant and map

Stella Marina in via Vittorio Emanuele II is a historic restaurant in Portoferraio.

The position, under the imposing Medicea Fortress a stone's throw from the sea, together with the local cuisine give it a strong link with the territory.

The convenient parking and the proximity to the historic center makes the Stella Marina, as well as easy to reach, ideal for those who after dinner want to take a walk on the beautiful "Calata" of Portoferraio.
