Strega is a highly regarded restaurant that provides a memorable dining experience in the North End. Customers are welcomed warmly and seated promptly, even when requesting a larger table. The waitstaff, led by Giani, offers attentive service, with some staff members having many years of experience. The menu features a variety of delicious dishes, including the polpetta, the flavorful Pasta Strega with capesante and gamberi, and the pasta that's amore, often prepared with an impressive show. The atmosphere is cozy yet lively, capturing the charm of the area perfectly. Guests praise the restaurant for its outstanding food and respectful service, often feeling as if they are back in Italy with their family. The environment is happy and fun, though it can be quite loud, sometimes with techno music making conversation difficult, even with the addition of opera singers. Some diners noted that the kitchen does a good job timing dishes, and although there is no dessert menu, the overall experience remains positive, despite feeling slightly rushed at times. The staff is engaging and helpful, with recommendations that enhance the meal. Overall, Strega’s delicious food and excellent service make it a great choice for special occasions like girls' nights, date nights, and group gatherings. It continues to be a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a memorable culinary experience.
