Came here during their happy hour. The food was good, bartender was friendly. The reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because while I was enjoying the food I noticed a few people got bread, which the bartender cut behind the bar without washing his hands or wearing gloves. I did notice the busser/bar back at least put on one glove that touched the bread when he cut it. All depends on how seriously you take hygiene and food safety, especially when people are sneezing, and blowing their nose. I surely hope those preparing the food in the kitchen wash their hands/wore gloves because if I see otherwise I’d turn it away.

I’m here right now. My wife’s drink has been empty for well over 30 mins. She ordered another one 15 mins ago still hasn’t come yet. Food is done. Still waiting on drink. At this point don’t even bring it. Very very slow service. Waiter has been at one table with 6 people forever making unnecessary small talk. Now we are sitting at the table waiting on the check and he walking over with the drink. Bro we ready to go. I wanna say something but my wife won’t let me. Oh well lesson learned. 225.00 for 2 people. This fine dining stuff ain’t for me. I’m content with Applebees happy hour!!!

My whole goal in life is finding the restaurants that make their own pasta! Part of it is that is also that homey, comforting atmosphere of feeling like family. Our server Brittany made it just that! She was kind, informative, attentive and just ,quite frankly, lovely. She made our evening between her service and great recommendations on other things to do in the area. We will definitely be back!

La Strada in Atlantic City never disappoints, and this visit was exceptional thanks to Brittney, Aluim, and Zigna.
Brittney, our lead server, truly set the tone for the entire experience. She was confident, organized, and incredibly attentive, making sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Her professionalism and warmth made us feel relaxed and well cared for, and her timing and attention to detail were spot-on.
Aluim brought great energy and excellent menu knowledge, offering recommendations that we absolutely loved. Zigna rounded out the team with kindness and efficiency, always stepping in at just the right moments.
The food was outstanding, but the service is what made the night memorable. This team works seamlessly together, and Brittney’s leadership really showed. We’ll definitely be back—La Strada is lucky to have them!

The wine she suggested paired perfectly with the meal and really elevated the experience. Her service was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely warm from start to finish. Excellent service all around—thank you, Brittany!

This place is definitely now in my top 10 go to restaurants in AC. I came here this past Tuesday for my birthday with my husband and it was an absolute banger. The restaurant is beautiful on the inside and I liked that the entrance had a door to go inside. It makes it feel like as if it’s a solo location and not in a casino. The hostess was polite and friendly, and our servers were so good to us. They both went over the menus with us and even showed photos special items on an iPad so we could see exactly what the food looked like. There were no long waits and all together service was a 10/10
The food though…it was so incredibly delicious, I ate ALL of it. Portion sizes were really good and the flavors were definitely there. We started with wine and a cocktail as well as the prosciutto wrapped shrimp. For our entrées I had the lobster and crab tortellini, And my husband had the La Strada Fra Diavolo. Both dishes were cooked so perfectly and were extremely tasty. Before We finished our meal the servers brought out a complimentary birthday dessert topped with a candle. We finished our meal with a panna cotta and a carmel apple cheese cake. The entire meal was a 10/10.
I won’t take any stars away as this was an amazing dinner, however I do have some constructive criticism. This restaurant is NOT cheap, let me make that clear. My meal alone was $75.99 and our total was $$$ before tip. Probably my next most expensive dinner since Steve and Cookies.
With that being said, for the price point and atmosphere I wasn’t excepting to see other diners wearing jeans, t shirts, hats, sweats; essentially street clothes while my husband and I were dressed within the dress code which I believe was business casual/cocktail. I’ve believe the dress code should definitely be enforced more as this location is listed as fine dining not causal dining. Nonetheless it was still a great experience and we will surely be back.

We ate our Christmas dinner here and it was an amazing dining experience. Really nice servers with fun personalities, food was delicious and on point and cocktails were perfect. If you like spicy, definitely try their specialty margarita (can’t remember the name). I highly recommend the mushroom ravioli and lamb shank. Really lovely experience. They’ve had some rough reviews but I highly recommend!

Food was outstanding. All pasta was homemade. The steak pizzaiola was insanely good. For a $400 dinner service should have been way better. Should have had a server staff of 4 on every table at that price point. Food exceeded my expectations but not worth the price point. I’m not cheap at all and have dropped over a thousand on one meal, but at this price point service should be impeccable and perfect. All in all, the food was great.

I don’t typically do bad reviews but considering the cost of the meals, I felt I had to. This was our second time here and I was a little disappointed. Atmosphere is nice and our server Digna was very sweet and attentive, my meal on the other hand not so good. My husband had the linguine and clam sauce, which was very good and he enjoyed. Our appetizer of fresh mozzarella was also good. I had the shrimp and scallops over risotto. As soon as the plate was put in front of me, I smelled a fishy smell, which was a little alarming. I ate the scallops and some risotto, but the shrimp did not look or smell right to me. When our server came back and asked how everything was, I said, I didn’t think the shrimp was cooked properly so I didn’t eat it. She said she would go tell the chef, not sure what that would accomplish. Then she came back and said would I like them to make me something else. At that point, my husband was done with his meal. What was the point of waiting for another meal to be cooked? I would preferred they took it off my bill, which was not offered. I’d be very hesitant to go back again considering the cost of my meal was over $65.
