First off this place is adorable! A lot of thought went into creating a warm, authentic atmosphere despite the space being quite small. The food is exceptional, my friend and I loved our Village salad, flaming saganaki torched table side, lamb manti, charred octopus, spicy sopressata pizza and the best baklava I’ve ever had with a delicious hint of orange zest that set it apart.Did I mention that the chef/owner is a genius and quite hospitable. Well Done!
Excellent Mediterranean food. The carrot appetizer is very good. Great place for non-meat options.Vegetarian options: Several delicious vegetarian appetizers and mains. No modifications necessary.
The food was very good. Made fresh we had Mediterranean dips with fresh baked pitas s shrimp and vegetable dip all excellent. The atmosphere is eclectic. Pictures, mirrors a cool collection of old doors. Nicr staff too.
I've been to Stina many times and always had positive experiences. However, when attempting to make a reservation for a party of 6, I had to call as the online system wouldn't accommodate our group size. During the call, John requested my credit card information, including the security code, which made me uncomfortable sharing on the phone. Despite expressing my concerns, he insisted, which felt rude considering my loyalty to the establishment and the positive word-of-mouth I've spread. I'm puzzled as to why they couldn't bypass the system to facilitate the reservation.

It's a beautiful restaurant with an interesting take on Italian. The price is a bit more on the premium side, but worth it considering the thought given into every dish. A great neighborhood staple.Do note, they don't usually take walk in.

We are so incredibly lucky to live less than a 10min walk from West Passyunk to Stina. The food, staff and space are a perfectly balanced blend with so much love, care and attention to detail put into each dish. Order everything… Stina forever! 5⭐️

Excellent Mediterranean food. Large portions to share. Good prices. Excellent service. Small restaurant, make reservations. Celebrate. Bring family and friends.
Terrific restaurant. The nicest people and great food in a cozy setting. We both had a chicken shawarma and shared the duck fat potatoes. The chicken was grilled perfectly and the pita was fresh, warm and pillowy. Delicious meal. Next time we’ll try their pizza, which looked amazing.
We love Stina! It has a warm, homey feel, delicious food, and top-notch service. The carrots and baklava are especially tasty.

We were able to snag a table on a chilly Wednesday night without a reservation and it was wonderful. It was my 2nd time here and certainly did not disappoint.

I've been ordering from Stina for years, usually picking up pizza on my way home, but I definitely recommend coming in for a full meal. Everything ok the menu is delicious. The dips, the delicious warm pita, the grilled octopus, the pizzas , the specials, I've never ordered a meal I didn't love here.The staff is attentive and super knowledgeable and can tell you about every component of the dish. The restaurant is cozy and the decor is sure catching but not overwhelming with fantastic ambient lighting. The owners are also just very friendly people who seem to care about the local community surrounding the business. Definitely recommend for your next date night or dinner with friends. Just know that this place is small and fairly quiet, so I suggest going elsewhere for large groups.10/10 one of the best restaurants in the area. Also, the dessert special we had last night was out of this world! A crispy crepe filled with vanilla custard and topped with a raspberry cream cheese; I hope they add it to the permanent menu.Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options throughout the menu and the staff is willing to accommodate and let you know about each dishDietary restrictions: Just tell the staff and they will handle everythingParking: Street parking gets harder later at night, but there's plenty of metered parking a block away
Basil wasn't frech,horrible customer service rude owner.
