Stella's Kentucky Deli is a family-owned restaurant that offers a welcoming and homely atmosphere. The food is prepared fresh after the order is placed, resulting in a waiting time of approximately 15 minutes, but the prices are considered reasonable. The menu features a variety of options, including the popular Carne Burrito and the link sausage and pancakes. Reviewers praise the kind and capable staff, the cute space, and the fresh, fun, and local-friendly vibe, which sets it apart from other places that serve pre-made-tasting breakfast food. Recent visitors also enjoyed the Classic Kentucky Burgoo, describing it as delicious and memorable, and the mushroom Ruben with Swiss cheese as the best vegetarian Ruben they’ve ever had. The restaurant offers good breakfast options, with straightforward service and a service fee that ensures staff is paid at least 15 dollars an hour. Additionally, the place provides great vegan options and a cool atmosphere, making it a favorite spot for many, especially around campus. While the Hot Brown may not be the best, the overall experience is seen as interesting and fun, with decent food that encourages repeat visits.
