I honestly thought I was over “sticker shock” these days but apparently not.The ten inch (not sure exact size but def VERY small) margherita pizza I got “to go” was absolutely fantastic tasting ,seriously top notch, 11 on a scale of 10 pizza but…1 personal pan sized pizza (that I bought for 2 people but it was barely enough) plus 2 glasses of average wine while I was waiting for “take out” for $70 ($64 + tip for bartender) ?? Way over-priced for what it is imo

Really great food and atmosphere at this spot. Feels like a family, where the owner knows a ton of the customers and focuses on service and ambiance.Drinks were great. Bread with the ricotta was awesome and was cooked with some garlic and rosemary.Even sleeper pick items were good, like the trout dip.The Caesar salad was celery based, so maximum crunch. I thought it was interesting.The pizzas were excellent, wood fired. We also got a spinach ricotta, but felt a bit dry.On the service side, seemed they were backed up for a bit, but overall we didn't have any issues.Eggplant parm was really dense and multi layered. We enjoyed.Dessert was excellent.

Unfortunately our service was lacking. She forgot our drinks twice, then brought the wrong one. She also got one of our pizzas wrong and we politely said it was alright she said great and just marched off. ??‍♀️ So that was awful. BUT those appetizers were SO GOOD (especially beets, bread, and carrots) and it's so cozy inside so 4 stars.

Had an awesome dinner at this cozy, upbeat, Italian restaurant! Menu is small and focuses on small plate/appetizer dishes and delicious fire coal personal sized pizzas. Food selection is unique and quality. Staff/Service was top-notch! Can't wait to go back! Great creamery right across the street.

I can’t say enough great things about this place! Came here with my girlfriend last night, and it was incredible. The food was amazing, as were the drinks and atmosphere. But also our server was so sweet, helpful and overall wonderful. Can’t wait to come again!!

Strada is okay with me ?!Our waiter was extraordinary. ?I would prefer the actual seating to be more comfy. It felt cold and hard. The Polenta was beautiful ❤️ ?. My wife loved the Calzone. The dessert was amazing too!It's a cool place but strada is holding back a lil bit. However go check it out. I'm positive we will go back just for the vibes!Sept 27th 2023 ~8pm.

Elegant, sophisticated atmosphere full of charm and warmth. You’ll usually be greeted by Gina, who genuinely welcomes guests into what feels like a family restaurant in Italy itself. She is truly lovely along with being quick witted and gregarious. The waiters, John and Michael, are totally on their game, know their customers well and engage with just the right touch. The food…Wow!! Creative, delicious and crafted with passion by Ken (co-owner with Gina)The cuisine is truly extraordinary and it gets changed regularly adding seasonal, flavorful and novel ingredients that pleasantly surprise you. Oh, and the pizza oven is a gorgeous blue tile beauty imported from Italy. Then there’s Chris, who also brings creativity and intelligence to his craft just like all the others at Strada (Italian for street!). A true gem and more than Manhattan worthy. Our very own little gem in a most charming downtown. Just go!! And a hearty THANK YOU to everyone at Strada for “bringing it”, every night. Great energy!!

The food is excellent as always, the alcohol selection is meh and the bartender was a bit surly the last evening I was there. That said I love the place and have been there many times. Also the restaurant is small, which I like, but it can get loud.

First time there and very satisfied with everything! Service staff very personable and eager to please. Suggest the clams casino and the SOP pizza. This pizza on the spicy side which I like. You won't be disappointed! We had 4 people in our party.

Great ambience and food. Very cool, upbeat vibe. Hostess is extremely cordial, graceful, and accommodating. I would highly recommend this place. Have been going there often and really enjoying it.

Had one of the best meals in a very long time at Strada recently. The cocktails were amazing and the food was even better. We had a few appetizers, along with three pizzas, and a large plate and everything was fantastic.The ambiance and service only added to our experience. This place is an absolute gem on all fronts. Get over here asap!
