Price: Moderate•Breakfast•4.8(10)Aunt Stella's journey began on October 21, 1910, gracing the vibrant lower east side of Manhattan with her presence.

Even now, I can effortlessly transport myself back to those cherished moments, picturing her gracefully moving around the kitchen and savoring the lingering aroma of freshly prepared spaghetti sauce on the stove. These memories etched themselves as precious treasures of my childhood and acted as the cornerstone of inspiration for my restaurant.
