Trattoria Stefano - Italian restaurant in Sheboygan - 522 S 8th St, USA

The food was pretty good. We had the mozzarella al forno as an appetizer, and that was very delicious. We had also ordered one of the specials and spaghetti ai fruitti de mar, which were also good. The atmosphere was nice. There was only one complaint about our experience. There was a mix-up in the kitchen, and another table got our entrees. Which is fine - mistakes happen. The issue we had is that nobody came to our table to tell us or apologize. We saw them tell the table that got our food, but not us, and we were sitting at the table next to theirs. We waited roughly 45 minutes after we finished our appetizer before our entrees finally came out, but still nobody said anything to us. The only time the mistake was acknowledged to us was when we brought it up when we got the check. Our waitress seemed friendly enough during the service, and it wasn't her fault to begin with, but we still should have had the situation explained to us ahead of time instead of us figuring it out ourselves. It did not seem like she was going to say anything until we said something first. That's the part that bothered me the most and kind of ruined the rest of dinner. I think there is a training opportunity here to teach the employees to make sure both parties involved in a situation are taken care of right away instead of just one.

Fantastic food and ambience - so happy we finally paid a visit. The Gorgonzola ravioli dish incredible and so is the pistachio cheesecake. Loved it! We will be back!

Romantic, lovely atmosphere with delectable food and impeccable service. My husband and I stayed in Kohler but drove over to Sheboygan for dinner at Trattoria Stefano due to its high rankings, and we were not disappointed. After a round of two different types of bread (both delicious) dipped in olive oil, we ordered the salad special of the night, which we agreed was the best part of our meal: fresh arugula with a very light lemony dressing, paired with thin strips of prosciutto, melt-in-your-mouth fresh mozzarella, blueberries, figs, and a balsamic drizzle. Our waiter Antonio was very knowledgeable about the entire menu and made great recommendations, including the afore-mentioned salad and a glass of wine (one red, one white) for each of us. We decided to try the meatball appetizer, which was good but not anything astounding--the sauce was the best part. For our main courses, I had the homemade pear ravioli in the brown butter sauce and my husband ordered the osso bucco. Both dishes were amazing! The semi-sweet ravioli was complemented and perfectly balanced by the salty brown-butter sauce. The osso bucco plate was gorgeous--as you can see by my photo--and the flavor pairings were memorably tasty. We almost always order dessert, but this time we couldn't because the portions were so generous and we were so happily full! The prices were quite reasonable for the quality and quantity of food we received. We agreed we'd return again!

One of the best Italian options in the Midwest. Amazing, authentic food. Fresh ingredients prepared in simple and often quite interesting ways is the key. Much of the pasta is made in house. The wait staff is welcoming, fun and very knowledgeable. You would expect a place like this in a larger, urban environment. Not to be missed any time you're in or near Sheboygan. Absolutely worth the drive!

Amazing. This restaurant is a real Italian restaurant! All of the food tasted a lot better than my expectations. Tiramisu there is 28 years also recipe. The best tiramisu ever. The hospitality was so good. We are coming back soon!!

Nice Italian restaurant in downtown. You need reservations. We didn't have reservations and ate at the bar. The bartenders were very nice and made some excellent suggestions. I ended up ordering the fish of the day which was halibut. It was amazing.

A little torn about this one... Almost 5 atars but not quite. Mainly because I felt the menu was a tad limited. Service was excellent, appetizers were excellent, I had the halibut, which was very good. The tomato soup was kinda meh... Overall a good meal and I would return. Neat location.

I stopped at this amazing restaurant for the first time last week, but it won’t be my last! The food was incredible, and the service was top-notch! We ordered the bruschetta for the table (pictured), and the rest of us ordered different pastas. We all left very satisfied! Can’t recommend enough!
