As a resident and active member of the neighborhood, I believe this café would be a valuable and welcome addition to our local area. Paola Pedrignani and their team have demonstrated a clear vision for creating a warm, inclusive, and high-quality experience. Their plan includes o3ering fresh and healthy food options and creating a space that supports local artists and community events. This aligns closely with our community’s values and the city’s goals of fostering vibrant, walkable neighborhoods. In addition to o3ering a place for people to gather, work, and socialize, the café is expected to generate new jobs and support other small businesses nearby by increasing foot tra3ic. With thoughtful design, sustainable practices, and commitment to community engagement, Stella Cafe stands to positively impact both our local economy and neighborhood culture. I respectfully urge the Council to support and approve this proposal. The café has the potential to become a beloved local hub and a symbol of growth that will lead our city to continue prospering. Thank you for your consideration.

I have lived here or the past 8 years. Prior to that I lived in Westlake, Texas and played a prominent role in that Town as a previous Alderman and School Board member. I met Paola Pedrignani in New York city just prior to Covid 19. She owned and operated a restaurant named Amaranth on the upper East Side of Manhattan. She was such a lovely lady and was so kind to me. She treated me like we had known each other for years. I told her she should consider opening a place in Texas. With her Italian background and love for food along with such a warm hospitality she would fit right in here in Texas. I guess she took me serious enough to come and explore her options. Since then, she has opened one of the finest dining establishments in Southlake, Stella. I believe that she would be a tremendous asset to the Town of Grapevine. I would encourage you and Council to approve her coming and spreading her charm and expertise to our town. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.
