    I recently dined at La Strada, and it was an unforgettable experience! The food was exquisite—perfectly prepared, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it the perfect setting for a memorable evening. What truly set the experience apart, however, was the impeccable service provided by our waiter, AJ. From the moment we sat down, AJ was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. They made excellent recommendations and ensured every detail of our dining experience was flawless. AJ went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and their genuine enthusiasm and professionalism were truly impressive. If you’re looking for exceptional food and world-class service, look no further than La Strada. Be sure to ask for AJ—you won’t be disappointed!

    I had leek soup, which was nice and hot, good presentation, and tasted good. My wife had a salad, which she said was good, large pieces of feta cheese. The bread was warm, soft, and tasty. She also had the prime strip steak, which was cooked correctly, to order. I had the caccio e pepe, which was better than expected, and I really liked it. Quality over quantity. My wife had Riesling, I had red wine (ironically, should've been the other way around given what we ate). I had a red Burgundy, which was good; then a Willamette pinot noir, which was a very nice sequence. She had a lemon cake for dessert, I had a vintage port wine, which was quite good. Overall we enjoyed the meal. Loud at first, but it quieted down. Narrow space to walk between tables, then larger as more people departed. Spent $250 with tip.
