A True Taste of Italy in Milford CT!!As a proud Italian who recently relocated to Milford, CT, I was ecstatic to discover Strada. This hidden gem is the epitome of an authentic Italian restaurant, providing an immersive cultural experience like no other. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I knew I was in for something special. The atmosphere exudes Italian charm, with warm lighting and a welcoming ambiance. But it's the food that truly stole the show! Every bite at Strada is a culinary journey back to Italy. Whether it's the perfectly al dente pasta, the heavenly pizzas or the mouthwatering seafood dishes, the quality and authenticity are unmatched.What sets this place apart is not just the food, but also the exceptional staff. The personnel here is fantastic and professional, providing attentive and knowledgeable service with a genuine Italian hospitality that makes you feel like family. And of course, Giuseppe, the owner, is a true gem. His passion for Italian cuisine and culture shines through in every aspect of the restaurant, and his presence adds an extra layer of authenticity to the dining experience.If you're in search of a true taste of Italy in Milford, look no further than Strada Trattoria Italiana! Whether you're an Italian longing for a piece of home or simply a food lover seeking an unforgettable culinary adventure, this place will exceed your expectations. Trust me, as an Italian, I can vouch for its authenticity.
Was there last night with a group of people from work. Excellent food and great service. Guiseppe the owner was awesome. Would definitely return.

Food is excellent! Giuseppe (owner) is a great host, very friendly, and makes excellent cocktails! The food, music, and atmosphere is very Italian authentic. Highly recommend - been back several times and have had consistent service. Will go again!
Been meaning to try this place for awhile and I was not disappointed. We have been to the previous restaurants in this location and was hoping Strada would be as good as the other places. I was not disappointed…I had a fall off the bone pork Osso bucco that was best I’ve ever had. We also had the burratta appetizer which was excellent. The service was very attentive and all in all a great atmosphere. The owner stopped by a few times and was super friendly and cared about our experience. WillBe back again to experience true Italian hospitality again.

This has become my wife’s and my favourite restaurant! We’ve been eating there frequently for a year or so. We’ve totally enjoyed every meal we’ve had there, even if it’s something I don’t normally order in a restaurant. The Salmon was to die for! They treat us like family — a true Italian restaurant!

Came in on a Tuesday night for my father’s birthday and were served by the owner directly who was the only one working!! Gotta say we had the BEST experience. Everything I put in my mouth was DELICIOUS. Everything was fresh it was vibrant it was rustic. It was amazing. This place rivals Adrianna’s in New Haven , might be even better to be honest. The service was top notch anytime we needed anything we given right away. I wish I took pictures but I ate everything so taste. Genuine Italian food. If you even THINK of trying this place I’m telling you right now , go. This place is a true hidden gem

Dinner this evening was exquisite. The atmosphere was intimate and the food was delectable. Mouth watering pollo parmigiana. Real authentic Italian food. The home made apple tart melted in your mouth. We'll be back. Worth every penny.

Finally got to try this place and was really impressed with the food and service. It wasn't too busy, so it felt like the waiter was extremely attentive and the food was amazing! We started with the bruschetta, then moved into the penne a la vodka with shrimp and the chicken Parm. Both were very good and the vodka was pretty unique compared to other places in the area.
Owner makes sure everything is done right. Food is classic authentic Italian.
