Boston Restaurant Openings, August 2023 | Eater Boston

"I learned that Stella, the hip South End restaurant that closed in the first few months of the pandemic after a widely praised 16-year run, has been brought back in Newton by chef Evan Deluty in a takeout-friendly format; he says, "I wanted to scale things down," explaining that after years of a huge 300-seat restaurant and 12 to 15 hour days he can’t maintain that level of service. The tiny new spot offers a tightly curated selection of favorites — including the famed Bolognese — and is currently open for breakfast and lunch Tuesday through Sunday, with dinner service to follow." - Erika Adams
