La Strada At The Shore

Customer service is awful especially housekeeping. We were there for a cheer event and the hotel was filled with kids. They threw out my daughter’s large squish mellow or so they say. I believe the housekeeper stole it and said she threw it away. No one would think this item was trash. On top of that the housekeeper supervisor would not even speak to me about the issue!

Horrible customer service.

First time here and was amazing! The food and our server Aluin were great especially since the place was very busy because of a concert venue that evening. We ordered the meatball app, chicken parm and gnocchi sorrentina. Look forward to going back soon.

We stopped here for the first time since it changed from the previous establishment. We had the meatballs as an appetizer that was mediocre at best. Our entrees came out hot, but not much flavor at all. Very bland for the price I was a liftle disappointed. Drinks were good, server seemed like he was bothered and not the friendliest but the hostess was double and triple serving them unfortunately. Might try again we shall see. Not in a rush to come back here

we were expecting so much more it was disappointing
although the appetizer we ordered was amazing Fresh tomatoes mozzarella basil and the bread was fresh and hot
i had chicken parm and tagliatelle It was thin and dry overly salted. husb had veal parm and substituted gnocchi with creams for an up charge The gnocchi was Amazing
veal didn’t seem like veal more like pork was dry and flaky( veal does NOT flake)
We mentioned it to the server we felt like the meal was pre prepped in warmers the set up and warmed up and served she agreed that the food was in warmers
we were surprised that no one came over to talk to us about it.
then
after that we didn’t see her till she brought out our bill… with no drink refills

it was a very disappointing dining experience.

Had dinner there and the three of us from the specials list. 2 of us ordered the steak special (95 each) and I ordered the Halibut ($85). The steak was so fatty and so grizzly, they could barely eat a 1/3 of it. I asked for a little butter and it doused in butter. I will not be returning as there are many other options.

BTW. $21 for a Basil Hayden is a disgrace

My boyfriend and I ate here on Saturday, the food was excellent. A family friend of mine had given us one of her Rewards cards. I gave it to the waiter thinking that it would be put towards giving her a credit and he used it to pay for the meal and it cleaned out her account, which was not our intention. I feel the wait staff should ask first if they want to pay or not. Especially since we were completely unfamiliar with the way it worked.

The other issue was my boyfriend ordered the steak on special which were told was "18 dollars". We asked again and the waiter said "18 dollars". Turns out it was $80.

Another delicious meal at this excellent Italian eatery. Yes, it's expensive, but we are at an AC casino, so, we expect the prices. Our server, Jose, was attentive, friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive. This Restautant is responsive and accommodating to individual food requests. This certainly is not the way it was with the previous Italian eatery here. Definitely a step above.

Our second time at La Strada. Food was terrific as was the ambiance. Our server Digna was polite, knowledgeable, and very friendly. She brought us cannolis because she heard us talking about how we were there for our anniversary.

My gf and I had a wonderful dinner from the octopus appetizer to the spaghetti, carbonara entrée and the moose chocolate cake for dessert. The meal was amazing and the service was attentive and fun.

Filet and lobster special was excellent. Great seating by Michelle. Old fashioneds were mixed perfectly. Loved the meatball flatbread to start, very unique. Finished with Tiramisu. Delicious!!! Digna took great care of us. Will be back.

Our waitress Kayla, waiter Ruffino The bartenders Everyone aims to please. Wonderful energy from the staff Different from Harrahs hotel employees We come quite often because of the way LaSrada treats us and the food is excellent Ty

Our experience was nice, the food was good, our service was okay...our server seemed somewhat inattentive. For being a fine dining restaurant, the service wasn't what we expected. He was very nice when he was at our table though. The restaurant was very nice & clean. A bit noisy. We dine out every weekend and multiple times a week, so I'm undecided as to whether we will try again, with so many other wonderful choices in ACNJ.

This was our second visit to La Strada. Our first was on July 8th of this year. We were fortunate enough to have Jay as our Server again, this time he was partnered with Eric. They were true pros, and no complaints with the fabulous service from start to finish. The problem we had is that the prices are incredibly high. It cost us close to $350.00 for two. My wife and I ordered from the specials menu. Specials are typically more expensive than regular menu items but...my wife had the halibut, and I had the ribeye with mashed potatoes, hers came with Risotto. Delicious yes, but about $95.00 for my steak, and about $85.00 for her fish. We had three drink's between us, she had a Pinot Grigio, I had two Vodka Martinis. We also shared an appetizer of two meatballs with one small crostini. The food and drinks were terrific, but the cost seemed excessive. We ate with my sister and her husband, but fortunately decided to get separate checks for their sake - lol

Beware! I’m not one to write bad reviews, but in wake of Harrahs and Caesar’s entertainment ruining my own Bachelor Party, I’m compelled to share my experience. For 5 months, we had my first night planned at Harrahs Pool party, and we had 20 people split a bungalow, committing to just over $3000 in services and beverages. Less than 1.5 hours into the night, my night that I can’t get back was ruined, and they’ve committed to not making it right. On July 26th 2024, while at the pool party, I was accused of “pushing a waitress down stairs” and before even knowing what I was accused off, was dragged out of the club to back rooms of Harrahs, forced to sign paperwork and a complaint and was then escorted out the front door with four security officers, who assured me that police would be involved if I was seen walking through the doors at a Caesars property for the next couple years. I work in education and would never want any kind of record, so I listened and communicated with the 20 friends left inside the club as they gathered information. About 30 mins later, my brother texted me saying the waitress said it was ok to re-enter. After being escorted out and receiving the message I received from security, it was going to take more than a text for me to enter. I wanted someone to get me to assure me it was a mistake and I was allowed back in. It took an additional 1.5 hours for them to find where security dropped me off, and now nearly 2.5-3 hours has passed without me AT MY BACHELOR PARTY. They refunded $500 of a $3500 bill, and that’s all they’re doing, now claiming that alcohol was consumed, so there’s nothing to refund. As a reminder…I was escorted BACK IN by the manager at the pool, David Getter and he was apologizing for the bad experience. Unfortunately, it was too late and most of my party had left. After speaking with Lou Dimino a few weeks later, he told me he would look into additional credits, would offer me a free bottle “next time” and ultimately had a random customer service rep named “fina” from Caesar’s customer service give me the news they weren’t going to do anything. They took a night I can’t get back and pocketed nearly $2900 that I can’t get back. They viewed me guilty until proven innocent, and did nothing to rectify it. Don’t consider going here for any important event.
