    First time at Strega and definitely will be back! There were three of us the food was delicious had two appetizers and I had the Salmon and my friends had pasta dishes. They are from NY City and love the North End they come into Boston every few month now this is our new place. Waiter and busboys were excellent clearing our table in a timely manner. We had a wonderful time.

    I hosted a birthday dinner for family. It was not a good choice because the noise level was ear busting. Service was fair as was food. You may enjoy dining there as long as you don’t mind shouting across the table.

    The prosciutto appetizer was excellent. The pasta dishes were a bit mushy and wicked salty. We asked for a quiet table due to one of the guest being hearing impaired and they gave us the table smack in the middle of the restaurant instead. The wait staff was attentive.

    Did not have reservations for dinner, wanted the North End Italian experience, and these folks had a short wait. Pretty cramped quarters, very very loud, but it as a Thursday evening in late May! Really love the chandeliers and Godfather running on the TVs. Not an inexpensive dinner.

    # 1 you need at least one high end Vodka on the menu. Grey Goose or Belvedere. Food was a9 out of 10. Very crowded and very noisy. But it’s graduation time for the college students

    Food is always excellent. Service was disappointing this time as I am a frequent customer but this time I felt rushed and was unable to enjoy my meal. We arrived early for our reservation, the restaurant was not packed and we were still rushed.
