Stella’s is a family restaurant at the Greenfields along Diversion Road. They are serving mostly Ilonggo and Filipino favorites.
Stella offers a delightful blend of traditional Filipino tastes with a modern, exciting twist. It’s the kind of place where you can savor comforting classics – mostly the meals that your grandmother or mother would always cook for lunch or dinner and other special occasions.
The place is huge – giving a lot of space for large groups to dine. They have a cool mural, and pretty lighting fixtures and the interior is unique giving you a homey feeling.

What We Had
From our first visit when Stella has opened its doors:
It was dinner time and we had a platter of rice, crab meat sisig, and lumpia trio. Their lumpia is a must-try. The serving is 9 pieces (composed of 3 varieties at 3 pieces each – shanghai, fresh, and cheese).
From our most recent visit:
We certainly went all out on our visit, diving into a wide array of their offerings, and every dish was a hit! Here’s a rundown of what graced our table:
- Stella Buttered Chicken: A definite standout, perfectly tender and flavorful.
- Inasal Platter: Of course, a trip to an Ilonggo-friendly spot isn’t complete without some fantastic inasal!
- Creamy Beef Salpicao: Rich, savory, and incredibly satisfying.
- Krispy Pata: The kind of crispy exterior and juicy interior you dream of.
- Krispy Kare Kare: Taking a beloved classic and giving it that irresistible crunch – brilliant!
- Classic Brazos: A sweet ending that hit all the right nostalgic notes.
- Lumpia: A perfect appetizer to get things rolling.
- Bangus Sisig: A flavorful and tangy take on sisig, using our local favorite.
- Stella Salad: A fresh and welcome contrast to all the rich flavors.
- Ilonggo Cordon Bleu: A truly unique fusion that blends a familiar dish with local flair – you just have to try it!
