Was sat 30 minutes late and placed into a small corner with two makeshift tables. Not very comfortable

We asked to moved our table and then were ignored when we did. Servers didn't have a clue who was taking care of us. Extremely poor service

Our waiter was amazing and the food was excellent. Great vibes and a great night. Definitely would recommend.

I really enjoy going to Strega, so this is more of a question for OpenTable. I'm just wondering what the process is when a guest notes a special occasion in their reservation. Is that something the restaurant is notified about in advance? I've included it a couple of times at different places but haven't had it acknowledged, so I'm just curious how that information is typically used.

The pasta itself was amazing! It was really loud & crowded. The server was borderline rude. We were told they had no dessert or coffee & felt like they just wanted us to hurry up to eat & leave. The rest of the food was average. This place is overrated.

VERY LOUD! I'm in my early 30s and I felt like I couldn't get out of there fast enough. So be prepared! It definitely aged me. A lot of young people.

Restaurant was recommended by a friend who lives in Boston this place doesn't disappoint! Our server was wonderful. The food was incredible. My son had the special snapper of the day he's 17 and he said this is the best meal he's had in his whole life. I had the shrimp and scallop pasta delicious if you're in Boston you need to try this place

Food was good but the experience was overall poor. We arrived with a party of 5 for an 8:30 reservation and were not sat for another half an hour. Not the worst thing to ever happen, but it set the tone for the rest of the night. Our entire table hadn’t even received drinks before our server was asking us to put in appetizers. The server also forgot my friends drink multiple times. He finally took our order and never came back to check on us. The food runners/server assistants did all of the work of clearing our table and offering us anything we needed. When I ordered another drink it sat at the bar while our server was chatting with the hostess and bartender. We asked for a dessert menu as it was a celebration for my birthday and were told there was no dessert, even though the table next to us had something with a candle brought to them. Then at the end, gratuity was included and the server never mentioned that to us. My friends almost tipped him an extra $100 when he barely did anything for us. Automatic gratuity is fine but it’s pretty sketchy to not make us aware of it.
My dude Carlo and Gianni are the best ? Just order everything. It's all good, everytime!!

We went out for a b-day dinner. Server was extreamly rude, place was too small put us at a table for 4-5 ppl. The tip was added in so that may be why he was so so rude !! There were 7 of us. He never came bk to check on us. The worst experience we have had. Will never return. Food was ok but portions were small very small ! Stay away !!

I booked a table at 8 PM on 09/29/2024 to celebrate my son and wife’s birthday. We had a party of 8. We also had a cake delivered from Modern Pastry. When we arrived at 7:50, they told us that they were setting up our table but did not receive the cake. We waited until 8:30 outside the restaurant for the 8:00pm table, and then they told us our table was given to another group because that group was bigger. We said we’d cancel the table and leave. They told us we’d get charged the deposit because we waived the table. Before we left, we asked them if they had the cake and they said no. At that time, my kids were hungry and it was getting late, and I can’t believe their birthdays ended like this.
The next day, Modern Pastry called us and confirmed they delivered the cake and they confirmed it is still at Strega. Ha.
If it is an important dinner you want to celebrate with friends and family, I would not recommend this restaurant. It will end in disappointment.

Calamari was very tough, not prepared properly. Over priced for what you get.
