Come si dice magnifico, eccellente, stupendo in Italiano?!?! Alta Strada knocks it out of the ballpark from the start. First you’re greeted by this chillaxed cutie who’s more with it than you realize. Once seated, you’re attended by many, astutely monitored by this giant ginger Bear, who’s got to be the GM or something, running this joint with precision. The restaurant gives classic vibes w matching BGM, colors are a combo of deep earth tones w softly muted pastels and lyrical touches here and there. We ordered apps only since we weren’t thinking of dining and now we must come back, for what we ate was amazing. We ordered the meatballs, shrimp scampi, and Strada bread w 2

Hands down an amazing spot and our server was the best! We came here as we wanted something close to the hotel and decided to sit outside. Everything was delish, the pizza, foccicia, pasta, and desert. My friends got the duck ragu and pasta and I the ravioli and both were amazing. The highlight was the butter served with the foccicia.

My friends and I went here during restaurant week and had a great time. We loved that there were some many good options on the restauweek menu! The food was good, yet the vibe and the service stood out the most to me. The Manager, Ben, and another fellow took care of us after we had to be moved inside due to rain. Ben even offered us free drinks after realizing that they were out of lamb [which we had all ordered]. But even without lamb, everything we ordered was delish! Not to mention our waiter, Israel, was very personable and knowledgeable about the menu. We definitely plan to return and get order the lamb!

We got there without a reservation and were still provided a table. The service was amazing, the waiter recommended us food as well as beer and was able to explain what was on the menu. We had pizza and pasta which was pretty good although (for my taste) the pizza was a little dry. My friends were happy with it though

This restaurant was the perfect place! The atmosphere is relaxing and welcoming! For the food, the pasta is as good as the pasta from Italy and the attic char was incredible! The waiter and staff are very friendly and very knowledgeable and you should definitely listen to their recommendations!

So I went here this week for restaurant week and I can say it’s some of the best pasta I have had in the city! I was so thrilled to go here and even more satisfied with the experience! I started off with some kind of alcoholic punch or something- the waiter recommended it and it was delicious! Followed by the RW grilled broccolini. The broccolini was very well seasoned and had an amazing taste! I crushed it fairly quickly. My friends got the burrata and the calamari which they also enjoyed.
