    We go to Strega fairly often. It's our favorite place. The atmosphere is great. The staff - from host to server - is great. Entertaining and friendly while also being very efficient. The food is consistently delicious, we never leave disappointed.

    Fantastic with one exception. We had reservations for 7 and waited outside until 7:45. However once seated staff was very apologetic

    Travelled from NC to Boston and wanted to go back to Strega’s. Got through our dinner and wanted to have a cappuccino and desert and was told that they did not serve on Fri-Sun. Very disappointing that all they are focused on is turning tables rather than the experience.

    Can't wait to return! Our waiter was great, the food super delicious and we were even treated to a couple of short vocal performances (Ed Sheeran's tune!!!) during the meal. WIN WIN WIN!! The restaurant is quite small and the wait personnel well staffed. Tables are somewhat close together so not conducive to "private conversations" but the rest of the experience was top notch. The only off-putting aspect of the experience was being quizzed several times on the days leading up to our date whether we planned on honoring our reservation... AND emphasizing that the table would only be held for our arrival (with ALL guests in place) for a short time ... plus they enforced a strict 90-minute window for the table. (We were not offered dessert or even coffee. While we probably wouldn't have succumbed to dessert after such a terrific meal, a coffee(cappuccino? )would have been a lovely way to top off a terrific experience.) Just a word to the wise.

    Arrived a few minutes early seated right away everybody was polite and attentive. My server David was over and above expectations, He made sure every aspect of our dinner was at 10+! I would definitely recommend anyone to visit Strega North End. They will not be disappointed.
