This was my first visit to the new location of this iconic restaurant. An All glass front gives the dining area a bright and cheerful atmosphere. There are also some outdoor tables. The wait staff were very attentive. The menu is extensive. The quality of the food is first class as it was in the old location. Recommended for those desiring fine Italian food.

What a gem. Set in a nondescript strip mall, Stresa offers some of the best Italian food I've come across in West Palm Beach. The service is always timely and non intrusive. I love their carpaccio, but it's the Seafood that always seems to shine here.

Very simple yet charming Italian restaurant, the service was personal and impeccable, the food was delicious especially the beet and goat cheese salad, the grilled octopus, the eggplant and ricotta appetizer, the roasted red peppers and anchovies, and last but not least the apple strudel was out of this world. This was our first vist to Stresa and we definitely will stop by again in the near future . Thank you Cindy for a great service.

Amazing food and great service. My wife and I walked in at opening for dinner and was seated immediately, with waiting staff clearing extra plating and filling water. Our orders were handled quickly and professionally with amazing food. The best Chicken Marsala I have had!! Wonderful atmosphere and an all around great experience.

Delicious. Highly recommend. Great new location on Palm Beach Lakes Blvd with easy parking and outdoor seating. We shared the chicken parmigiana and a Caesar salad and a glass Chianti. Ask for Lisa.

Everyone was pleasant, from the hostess who greeted us, to the bussers, and especially our waiter Terry who was kind, professional and knowledgeable. Food was excellent, and I knew some great Italian chefs and home cooks. Highly recommend.
