"Stamna Greek Taverna is an absolute treasure in the heart of the Brookdale neighborhood of Bloomfield. Also located in several top Greek restaurants in North Jersey, including Lithos in Livingston, Oceanos in Fair Lawn and Varca Restaurant in Ramsey, it makes it especially that the best Greek restaurant is in my own neighborhood! Owner Alex Angela are experienced restaurant owners who also own the Nevada Diner for 30 years. Alex's vision for Stamna is the kind of comfortable, local tavern you are in every Greek neighborhood. The brand of this restaurant is high quality ingredients simply prepared in generous portions at a reasonable price. Your fish is excellent. Grilled or fried, the Tsipoura (Greek porgie) is my go-to entree and the Lavraki (important Greek bronzino). Traditional Patates Fournou (lax roasted potatoes) and Horta are not to be missed. Charcoal-grilled Paidakia (lamb chops) are juicy and delicate. On a personal note, last week I didn't think I had just missed the closing time for the kitchen. Alex randomly came to the restaurant and asked me if I wanted to eat something. Instead of keeping his kitchen staff there at the end, he insisted on preparing something for me personally. I expressed appreciation for the offer, but went back. He insisted that it was not a problem and since I was very hungry, I broke off and accepted his generous offer! He continued to come behind the stove and prepared Tsipoura and Horta for me personally! How refreshing and what a rare treat you want to find a restaurant owner to please a customer. One could imagine such an experience, perhaps in the past or in Greece today, but how rarely in today's often impersonal culture. Alex and Angela are very dedicated to creating this kind of neighborhood tavern experience in Stamna and really glare their efforts. Stamna is a restaurant experience not to miss!"

Our food, appetizers salad and entree, all first rate and served perfectly by a pleasant capable waiter. All for a very reasonable price!
User
pleasantly surprised that thought that there were many people waiting, our reservation was honored and we sat as soon as a table was made available. all 4 of our meals were delicious. the fish (ob porgy, brunino or heavy fish) we are all seasoned as they should to improve the taste, but not overpowered it will definitely go back

Stamna is always delicious and good service. They probably should not be on Open Table each and every time we've made a reservation through Open Table they seem confused and there has never been a table ready for us at the reservation time. It doesn't take long, but there's always a surprised look when we say we used open table. View menu

No parking lot so we arrived at 7:05 for a 6:45 reservation as we searched for parking. The hostess was mean and had an attitude. Especially because I booked on open table. Tried to seat me right in front of the door and when I asked for another table, she told me no because I was late for my reservation We eventually got a table for 2 and it was very narrow and right in front of the kitchen. The food was wonderful. Very fresh. But the ambiance in the restaurant is not great. Hostess apologized at the end of the night and gave us a a free dessert which was yummy.

The food here very good (based on previous visit) but their reservation process is horrible and they shouldn’t be on OpenTable. I made a reservation via OpenTable and when I got to the restaurant with my party we were told we didn’t have a table. The reason being is because they don’t actually hold tables via OpenTable they just add you to the list with walk-ins. That being said the hostess wouldn’t even give us an idea on how long our wait would be. So, we left the restaurant only to receive a call 25 minutes later that our table was ready and we should have been more patient.
