    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.

    Went to Strega before seeing Barry Manilow at TD garden. Blueberry-lemon martini and raspberry margarita were delicious. Great bread, oil, and balsamic. We ordered That’s Amore, where pasta is turned in a Parmesan wheel, and also the Bolognese and a meatball to share. Everything was absolutely delicious! We’ll definitely return. Small and cozy in the north end, with street windows open provided a nice ambience. Service was very good.

    Good was good but server wasn’t the best. It’s a hit or miss experience. I’ve had better experiences before at Strega.

    Wonderful! The food and the service was delightful. And the topper was the beautiful opera singer who stopped by for a few songs.

    Service and atmosphere was top notch. I don’t know why people were complaining about noise. It was fun and happening. There was a singer that came out and it just elevated the evening. She was so good. The food was delicious.
