Layer 3 switch or Router?

I have an edge router ---> switches --->end users (about 200 users). I want to segregate my network (VLANS) and create some access lists to prevent users reach some resources. I don't want to use the edge router to do VLAN routing because of the overhead. What is the best practice/solution? Is router of stick reliable? or I need layer 3 switches? if I need L3 switch, how many? does one switch will work as a router to router between VLANS?

Any suggestion, please feel free to ask any questions.
