Awesome restaurant in Morgantown. The food is delicious, especially the escargot, crab cocktail, and homemade meatball, which was huge (I should have shared it). Outstanding entrees included the sea bass with lobster, veal milanese, and Dover sole. Our server had limited wine knowledge, but his friendliness, and attention to detail more than made up for that.

The service was great. Took the bartender a long time to make two drinks. I enjoy eating and spending time with family but three and a half hours in a restaurant was a stretch. Steaks were slightly over cooked. Hoping it was just a bad night for the kitchen.

The best (maybe the only) place for real fine dining in Morgantown. Food and drinks are consistently good. Staff are professional and friendly. Meals take a while, so don't go if you're not prepared for the relaxed pace. A little pricey, but I think with good reason. Main dining room is relatively small and can sometimes feel cramped, but still good for conversation. Good spot for a special occasion.

Amazing meal and service provided at Stefano's mid week. Restaurant was almost half full at the time I arrived. The server Cody was very friendly and seated me promptly. Accommodated me with bread and a palate cleanser between courses The lavender lemon drop was enjoyed not once, but twice and was perfect each time. I enjoyed the crab meat with the two varieties of sauce, homemade gnocchi with a giant stuffed meatball and cannoli for dessert. The crab was fresh and the sauces were excellent. The gnocchi were soft and fresh. Paired with the big meatball I was struggling to finish. The pistachio chocolate chip cannoli was fresh and not too sweet. Will be back

Delicious food and cocktails.  If you are looking for a great restaurant for wonderful food and ambiance this is for you.  Started with a sausage stuffed pepper and lemon drop lavender martini.  The sauce on the pepper was the perfect flavor to scoop up with warm dinner rolls.  Wedge salad and tomato caprese salad crisp and yummy. Halibut with Crab is a star dish, if you only try one dish this is the one.  Filet mignon cooked perfectly medium rare slathered in melted butter and garlic, grilled broccoli rabe and red potatoes.  We even had dessert which was amazing- flourless chocolate tart and ice-cream penguin style (caramel/chocolate sauce).  Highly recommend if you are looking to eat really good food and have cocktails that are not filled with sugar.

Stefano's is "the place" to go in Morgantown for older folks with an income that allows them to go here. The food was good but doesn't awe you, and for the price tag, I want to be awed. The atmosphere is okay, but the size makes it feel a little crowed as it's usually packed. The wait staff are excellent, standing in corners and refilling your water glass, etc, as one would expect, but where it got dodgy for me was how long it took to finish dinner. Maybe they are going for the dining experience, but they have the timing off for this. We waited a long time between courses, and that wait felt a bit unreasonable. Still, though, if you're looking for a good meal at one of those places, you won't be disappointed.

I had dinner this evening at stefanos . The waiter we had was excellent. The food was very good. But the time between courses was ridiculous. It took forever to get appetizers. Then between appetizers and main course was even worse. I understand it is a high end restaurant and they give you time between courses but the the wait was way to long. But the worst thing was we were packed in like sardines. There was very little space between our table and the next table. When the waiter was at he adjacent table his backside was in our face. It was the same on both sides. I am not a covid fanatic but it made me feel uncomfortable sitting so close to the next table. When you are paying what stefanos charges you don’t want to feel crowded. The restaurant has a huge room in the back so I am not sure why they had to cram everyone together. The food and service was excellent but I didn’t appreciate being crammed into such a small space. One table next to us was loud and it was hard to hear the other people we were having dinner with. Not a pleasant experience.

In the hard to find basement of a bowling alley, the ‘thud’ of bowling balls clearly audible and odd dark decor adding to the weirdness, it was a pleasant surprise to enjoy a great meal at this stripmall venue. The pasta, meat and wine were all tops. Service was attentive, though slow in teasing the food out of the kitchen.

Was very good, nice atmosphere and excellent service. Was part of a large party so got to taste a few other dishes. However, my gnocchi dish was cold when served and I was not a fan of their red sauce, was too sweet and perfumey--like too much tarragon or anise? While I can understand beef and fish are premium products, the pricing of other menu items was about 20% higher than comparable restaurants, in my opinion.

I've never been to Stefano's, all my years living in West Virginia/Morgantown I had never visited this restaurant. Upon finding out there was a new executive head chef, I decided to bite the bullet and give it a try. I was NOT disappointed. Chef Meyers cooked an absolutely perfect filet, seasoned with a bourbon dry rub. Hands down one of the most amazing steaks I have ever eaten. I enjoyed the atmosphere, the wait staff was funny and friendly, but most importantly, the food was INCREDIBLE. I will be dining at Stefano's more in the future.

My husband and I visited this restaurant for the first time last night. We've been talking about coming here for a while, so I'm very glad that we finally went. We ordered 2 appetizers: THE meatball and the calamari with peppers and black garlic aioli. My husband doesn't eat seafood, so I had the calamari all to myself! It was cooked perfectly, and the sauce paired well with the squid. I had a tiny bite of the meatball, and that was also very good. For our entrees, I had the parmesan crusted snapper with blue crab and butternut squash risotto and shaved Brussels sprouts, and my husband chose the penne alla vodka with chicken. Again, the fish and chicken were cooked perfectly, and all of the seasonings were on point. The risotto was delicious and creamy. My husband loved his pasta also. We had a bottle of Scarzello Barolo 2007 with our meal, and it paired very well with everything we ordered. Although we were full from our meal, my husband decided to get vanilla ice cream coated with chocolate sauce, caramel sauce, and candied pecans. I couldn't resist having a couple of bites. It was also delicious. My only complaint, which is a very minor one and based on personal preference, is that the Brussels sprouts were steamed instead of roasted or fried. I love caramelized Brussels sprouts. As for the service, our waiter was very attentive, and we did not have to wait very long for each course. This is a wonderful restaurant with excellent food, and we will definitely be back!
