Stella Luna Gelato Cafe

Starbucks
100 Elgin StVery fast service.
The drinks and atmosphere here are great and the food is very good (if not a bit too salty...still amazing). We just enjoyed the seafood boil along with the beef cheeks and tomatoes dish. ALL yummy. Paper Plane is a good cocktail and careful what you spend on the wines...they are ok at best. I'd stick to the taps and the cocktails.
