2017 Menu Specials
Stella
Resist the temptation to discuss your menu plan of attack before the waiter lists chef Shane Solomon’s nightly specials, because they’ll inevitably throw a wrench in your plans. Recent highlights: gnocchi with ramps, gorgonzola crema and summer truffle; soft-shell crab carbonara with white asparagus, prosciutto and hand-cut spaghetti; and soups that can outshine a main course. Forget to order the pizza? Yeah, it happens.
