I have travelled the world, yet this is the very best Italian restaurant I have ever been to, it's small, friendly, bustling, noisy in fact just like my mothers home, when all the family arrive for a meal... Wonderful place to have great food, fine wine and just enjoy the excellent service with good conversation and laughter. A treat, if you can get in.

Thoroughly excellent! This is a wonderful place. Real Italian food cooked with love, in an atmosphere which really fits. This is not a place to go if you enjoy restaurants where the only sound is that of clinking glasses and hushed tones. This is a busy, bustling friendly little place which is ideal if you like to sit with a bottle of wine, laugh, enjoy fabulous food and great service in a place where the customers are made to feel like family. Nothing is too much trouble, and the food is consistently superb, Stefano and his team can make a simple salad into a delicious work of art, you can taste the passion in every mouthful. Go and try it for yourself!

We visited Stefano's on Thursday 9th September. Absolutely fantastic, very small dining area, they do two sittings, 6pm and 8.30pm and it is advisable to book as they get very busy. We were offered complimentary tomato and garlic bread before our starters arrived, complimentary sauteed potatoes and onion with our mains and to finish off the evening we were offered a free shot of alcohol. Service was fantastic, very knowledgeable staff and an outstanding menu, words could not describe how delicious the food is! If you are ever in Silsden then a visit to Stefano's is a must, but be aware they are closed on Mondays!

Have been going to Stefano's since it opened and can say that this is the best restaurant I have been to in the UK. It's not big, it's not swanky, but the atmosphere, food and above all, service - are all truly outstanding. Stefano cooks the most fantastic steak I have ever tasted and is always as I have asked for it (medium-rare). Sizzlers and pizzas are equally great. My only gripe is that you can never get a table at weekends unless you book about 2 weeks (or more) in advance, but they will ring you if they have a cancellation - great service indeed.

Let's hope the new place in Silsden is better than the cramped bunfight that Stefano's has become! Is it any wonder Keighley/Silsden don't get any mentions in the 2010 Good Food Guide? On a very recent visit our starter arrived before we'd finished the customary gratis pizza, the starters arrived at staggered intervals, why do they insist on an "is everything all right" during, after, then several times at the end of the meal? We must have had 10-12 in total... smacks of a) wanting praise or b) insecurity, or most likely a combination of both. The food on the whole is excellent and plentiful, though why they insist in smothering the star of the show, be it fish, veal, steak, whatever in lashings of sauce is beyond comprehension. Also why serve that pathetic little side salad on a steaming hot plate when they've already asked if you'd like salad or veg? Stefano's is about as far away from fine dining as you can get with cramped tables, surroundings, helpings, in your face staff and the aforesaid mentioned takeaway collections. But if you want a free for all bun fight, fine, get stuck in... it's as rustic and as chaotic as they come, but for better value and the same atmosphere head down to the Carvary at The Beeches for a fiver! For a more discerning diner you need to cast your net a little wider... and believe me, there's plenty better, and not too far away either!

This is undoubtedly the best Italian restaurant this side of Milan. I had heard so many good reports I had to go and see for myself, the staff nearly out number the customers due to the small but intimate dining area this is complimented by an open plan kitchen where you can sit and watch food freshly prepared. It’s a taste sensation from a fantastic choice of authentic dishes. It’s a delight to find a place with so much passion for providing the best quality at very reasonable prices. I cannot recommend enough, this place is a real gem and I will certainly be back.

Excellent food, excellent staff and excellent wine!! Its perfect and the complimentary pizza bread, saute potatoes and free shot with every meal, makes it that little more special. Everything is home cooked as you can see that from the open plan kitchen. The staff are really friendly and makes the whole experience enjoyable. Oh and did I mention the choice of food! wow so much to choose from!!! I had my 30th party there at the beginning of the month and I knew that all my friends and family would enjoy it and they did, so it made my evening very special indeed. Thanks Stefano and all the staff.
