About Stella

Stella brings relaxed Italian dining to Bulimba, pairing house-made pastas and wood-fired dough with a calm, breezy room. Settled near the Oxford Street ferry terminal, the airy dining room skips overwhelming noise in favour of warm lighting, mellow acoustics, and attentive service. Diners lean into thin-crusted diavola pizza, king prawn pasta, and silky stracciatella scooped up with warm, blistered focaccia. The kitchen also handles dietary needs without fuss, turning out gluten-free pizzas and pastas that hold their own. Evenings lean unhurried—glass of wine or a negroni on the table, followed by classic tiramisu.

  • Handmade Pasta & Dough: Pasta crafted in-house and thin-crusted pizzas finished with blistered edges, from truffle tagliolini to diavola.
  • Gluten-Free Flexibility: Dedicated gluten-free variations across both pizza and pasta selections without sacrificing texture.
  • Relaxed Neighbourhood Atmosphere: Airy, bright space with gentle acoustics and polished hospitality suited for date nights or large family dinners.
  • Riverside Setting: Steps from the Bulimba ferry wharf, making arrival by river an easy alternative to driving.
