UPDATE 4/12/26: I took a cooking class here at La Strega a couple of weeks ago, and yep, I returned for their dinner service and bought my LTP with me! We try to do date night at least once a month and I selected La Strega for our next one, although we don't live in Summerlin I've been riding the Italian food train for a while and La Strega's food is just phenomenal. We had a reservation booked for 4/11/26 at 7:30pm, but when we arrived, we were told that it would be a couple of minutes for our table to be cleaned and ready because they were really busy. They don't have an actual waiting area inside, but you can wait outside, where they have some pretty comfortable chairs and couches. After about 10 minutes, we decided to go back inside to check on the status of our reservation, and we were told that it was almost ready and would be a few minutes more. We got a nice, cozy table in the middle of the restaurant near the kitchen area. For drinks, I couldn't decide whether to get a cocktail or a glass of wine. Eventually I settled on their Chalk Hill Sonoma 2021 Chardonnay. My LTP got their Priscilla cocktail and he got it not because of the flavors involved, but because Priscilla was the name of one of his parents' dogs. I'm a big Chardonnay fan and I'm happy that I selected this drink because it was pretty good. Their bread was amazing and some of the best bread I've had in an Italian restaurant! With prosciutto served on the same plate, the bread had asparagus baked inside and came with ricotta cheese and olive oil separately. Ricotta cheese is that type of cheese you break apart yourself, so we could add as much as we could. Very good thus far. Our entrees consisted of the pomodoro pasta and the rigatoni bolognese pasta, with Parmesan cheese served on the side. So amazing! My LTP finished his rigatoni but I had to take my pomodoro home as leftovers. He loved the rigatoni so much that he wanted to come back and order another plate when we returned home. He told me that coming here was well worth the drive, as I said to myself in my previous review. Thank you La Strega for a great dinner date! We'll definitely be back again! read more

Brunch menu in May - Everything was good but I left with a slight bit of disappointment because I expected it to be great. I absolutely loved DW Bistro. Nothing that we had at this brunch was bursting with flavor. Again, nothing was bad. Everything was perfectly well cooked and fine so maybe I had set my expectations too high. Also, maybe I'm in the minority here but I hate loud music in a restaurant. I did not realize it was a DJ set brunch and you could not hear the person next to you. Service was great, we had the pleasure of meeting the mastermind behind the menu. You could tell lots of care and attention to detail were put into this. We love La Strega and will be back. Cornish hen and waffles - the Cornish hen was basic fried chicken tenders and the waffles were flat, didn't have much flavor nor did they have the crisp exterior a good waffle should have Eggs n purgatory - classic, tasted as it should Salmon - beautiful presentation, salmon cooked perfectly but neither the salmon nor the salad had any seasoning. I actually wanted to add salt but was too embarrassed to ask for it Pastry basket - so good and great to share! read more

Went on a Thursday night and it was very busy. My first impression is they don't have enough waiters because the person I had was running around like crazy. The two appetizers ordered: Octopus salad and Stuffed peppers with sausage wre both excellent. The main entree was halibut and it was overcooked and not warm. Disappointing. So I would have to try other items to make a complete review. Front room is small but quiet. read more

What a lively and beautiful restaurant. I loved the decor! All the staff were great and the interior looks roomy and open with subdued colors. I ordered the scallops and tried the smoked white fish w caviar as an appetizer. Everything we tried was delicious. Our server was fantastic. My scallops came out a couple mins after my friends meal came out and I could tell the staff was not happy about it but I didn't mind. It was worth the wait! read more

Husband and I decided to have date night at La Strega so we made reservations for a Saturday at 6:30PM. When we arrived, we had to wait for a bit until our table was ready. It was extremely packed that night! In the meantime, we sat at the bar and ordered some drinks. My husband decided on the Lillie (ketel one peach & orange blossom, apricot, prosecco, and fever-tree sparkling grapefruit) while I decided to go for the Rihanna (toasted coconut rum, blanc vermouth, banana, passionfruit, pineapple, lime, and vanilla). Both drinks were super good -- light, fruity, and refreshing. When our table was ready, the host came to show us the way. Since it was our first time at La Strega, we decided to get a few dishes to share: Grape & White Onion Focaccia - we ordered this with their whipped mascarpone butter and honestly, it didn't need it. The bread could be eaten on it's own and it would be good enough. The grapes in the bread made it really delicious. The only down side is that it was a bit oily so it did get heavy. Little Gem & Kale Caesar - creamy & salty with refreshing bites of lettuce. The anchovies are typically really salty but theirs was perfect and added a nice depth to the salad. Peruvian Bay Scallops - this came with truffle aioli, smoked trout roe, and crumbs. My friend said their scallops were really good but maybe she meant a different dish because I was not expecting what actually came out. While the scallops were cooked very well, they were too tiny for my preferences. Not a favorite. Stracci - braised beef cheeks, mushrooms, pecorino, and sage. Stracci is a type of torn pasta, it looks like pieces of lasagna that was cut up into pieces. This dish was extremely delicious and flavorful. The pasta was cooked well and it was our favorite of the evening. Fat Pig - n'duja sauce, sausage, soppressata, cotto, prosciutto, and fior de latte. While their pizza is good, I don't think it's anything special. I think after a while, it also got a bit too salty due to the amount of different cured meats on it. I think if the pizza came with some veggies as well, it would be more balanced. Service that night was a bit slow and our server did apologize for that. So if you do go during a packed night, keep that in mind! Ambience is very cute -- great for date nights. While everything was decent, the pasta is the only dish we would order again. Not sure if La Strega would be at the top of our list the next time we want to have Italian but if we ever want pasta, we'd definitely come back. read more

This should be a ten star out of five restaurant....AMAZING experience. Always looking for something new, we were in Summerlin and I had it down to three places...I picked this one for the menu items...and it exceeded my expectations. We arrived at 5 pm, just getting dark, which made the restaurant even more beautiful inside...we ordered two glasses of prosecco, knowing that would pair with what we already picked out on the menu. Our server was about to make suggestions, and we kindly told her we already knew what we wanted. I got the ricotta ravioli with sage butter and I could detect a beautiful lemon in the sauce...this brought a tear to my eye. The pasta was so fresh and the sauce was so delightful. Hub loves Cacio de pepe and he went for that. This was also done beautifully with the fresh pasta and a sauce that did not overwhelm the pasta. The both of us were so intrigued by our food and talked it up to each other, that I noticed a few employees were taking note....they might have thought we were food critics...ha ha ha. As other patrons entered, I noticed the service was impeccable...subtle pulling out of chairs, chair purses for oversized bags...a staff that would make the strip blush....these guys have your experience down...and you will not be paying the resort corridor prices. We finished with a dessert...the campfire panna cotta...what a marvelous finish to a meal. This is a definite return and next time with friends or family to show this jewel off...I was so pleased with the whole experience. read more

Came here for dinner on a Tuesday evening with a reservation made on OpenTable at 530p. It was a rainy evening but had arrived on time and was promptly seated as soon as we arrived. We were sat at a 2 person table by the window, which was nice to see the "rainy" weather. The waitress who served our table was SUPER friendly and recommended quite a few items, which we had actually ended up picking. We wanted to try a variety of items between the 2 of us, so we ordered the following FRITTO MISTO is fried calamari, rock shrimp, crawfish, and artichokes with a creamy dipping sauce. This was a nice variety of fried items. Instead of JUST having calamari, it has other fried items as well, which was nice. Our favorite was actually the fried artichokes. I think they were the oil-preserved artichokes that were deep fried so they had a little "tartness". STRACCI pasta is "ripped" lasagna pasta with braised beef cheeks, mushrooms, pecorino, and sage. The waitress had described it as "ripped lasagna pasta" but these looked like "cut" triangle sheets of probably the lasagna pasta. Pasta was cooked perfectly al dente. The braised beef cheeks were decent and tender/shredded but our favorite was actually the mushrooms. Had a nice bite to them and good flavor. GRILLED SPANISH BRANZINO with caper salmoriglio and crispy herbs. My friend and I love eating fish so this sounded yummy. There is an option to have the head and tail removed too, for those who are sensitive tho that. They DO remove the main spine bone though, which is nice BUT take care for other bones still. Per Google, CAPER SALMORIGLIO is a zesty, bright southern Italian sauce for grilled or seared foods, combining the classic salmoriglio ingredients of lemon, olive oil, garlic, and herbs with the briny flavor of capers. It is particularly popular in Sicily and Calabria. Initially i had brushed off the CAPER SALMORIGLIO to get a taste of the fish itself. There were some "burnt" aspects of the fish but overall, the fish was great and fresh. The CAPER SALMORIGLIO was actually quite tasty and is like as described! Bright and zesty, which is nicely paired with the fish. Instead of getting another dish, we had opted to get some desserts instead. TIRAMISU ALLA BETTY includes mascarpone mousse and coffee gelato We're both fans of a specific tiramisu a local bakery used to make and had been on the search for something similar to it. Although it was not similar, this tiramisu was still pretty decent. On the menu, it says it comes with coffee gelato but we're pretty sure it was definitely a scoop of the SAME gelato we had separately ordered (straciatella) STRACCIATELLA gelato Service was great. Water was frequently filled and plates were cleared soon after finishing. Timing of the food was quite accurate without little "wait time" between dishes. Random info. The credit card I had planned on using at the restaurant had fraud 2 days prior to visit. I had called the restaurant to see if "tap to pay" was an option and it was. You'd just have to follow the waiter/waitress to their POS machine to "tap". read more

My first visit here was for takeout. When I walked in the door, I asked the host where to order takeout. She replied with me and offered me a menu. I ordered the Stracci pasta and was told it would be about 10 minutes. There was no designated place to wait for takeout so I went outside. I went back in after 12 minutes or so and my order wasn't ready. I took a seat near the host stand until my order was ready about 10 minutes later. I was surprised there wasn't a place to wait for takeout. It was awkward to find a spot to wait, and usually the host would suggest a place to wait or tell me they would let me know when the order is ready. When my order was ready, she said thank you for waiting. The restaurant was pretty busy when I arrived, and I knew it would be more than 10 minutes for a takeout order. I wasn't surprised it took longer than 10 minutes. The pasta was good and I would order it again. There were a lot of mushrooms and a fair amount of beef. The entree was $28 which is pretty steep for a pasta meal but this is south Summerlin. The restaurant and bar looked really nice and upscale. I plan to return and dine in the restaurant or at the bar. read more

La Strega - Stracci - Italian Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Beautiful and contemporary restaurant located in a plaza. There is parking available in the lot and I would suggest making a reservation as it tends to get busy. Service was great and they were very attentive to whatever we needed. I love that the server asked if there were any food allergies prior to us ordering. We ordered the spicy pig pizza, rigatoni bolognese, brussel sprouts, green beans and tiramisu. Our food came out quickly and I would recommend getting the brussel sprouts, green beans and pizza. Pasta was great as well but I have had other pastas at other establishments that were not as costly. I would probably skip the dessert as it is more on the pricier side for a small portion. Cute date night place to visit! read more

I love La Strega and have been here many, many times- it's always been a favorite of mine. The menu is incredible, especially the pastas, and the chicken cacciatore this visit was 12/10. I wanted to lick the plate clean! That said, this visit was disappointing in a couple of ways. A truffle pasta special was offered without any mention of price and it ended up being $90....for a bowl of pasta. Do I understand that truffles are expensive? Of course. Could I reasonably anticipate a $90 pasta (esp when the most expensive thing on the menu is half that?) Ansolutely not. That lack of transparency is not okay and really bothered me. Another odd (and uncomfortable) issue: there was hard plastic coming up off the edge of our round table that was literally cutting my arm. I had to put my napkin over it just to be able to rest my arm on the table. The food remains excellent, and I hope management addresses these issues so La Strega can continue to be the standout restaurant it has always been! read more

La Strega - Italian Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Service was very good, but the food was a bit hit or miss and expensive for what you get. Definitely pass on the egg drop soup- bland and not very interesting. Best dish was the Japanese eggplant Milanese. This was flavorful and crispy. The linguine condole was very solid, as was the steak. Others in our party enjoyed the meatballs with polenta. Pasta pomodoro was very basic. Hamachi was well-liked also. Gluten-free folks: they do not have any gluten free pasta or pizza. Waitress was not very helpful in offering options to suit gluten allergy. read more

As locals, we're always looking for off-Strip spots that feel like an experience, not just another dinner. La Strega nailed it start to finish. The room itself sets the stage. Soft light, modern chandeliers, and a design that feels elegant without being stiff. The chairs deserve a mention on their own, with comfortable wide armrests of solid wood that make you want to settle in and stay awhile. It feels deliberate, like they actually want guests to linger. At the table we opened with cocktails. The Nora Negroni ($17) hit that deep, balanced bitter with malfy blood orange gin, Campari, and Cocchi di Torino vermouth. Classic, exact, nothing overworked. The Alessandra ($16) could have been a sugar bomb in the wrong hands, but here the toasted coconut rum, blanc vermouth, banana, passionfruit, pineapple, and lime leaned sophisticated, layered, and bright, served in a glass pineapple. Mozzarella Monday should be a citywide tradition. For $15, the cheese is pulled and salted tableside, still warm and silky, a small piece of theater that reminds you why fresh matters. The Grilled Spanish Octopus ($20) followed, tender and smoky, with lima beans, lemon, and tapenade giving it real depth and balance. Housemade pastas showed the kitchen's range. The Stracci ($28) is pure indulgent comfort, braised beef cheeks with mushrooms, pecorino, and sage in a slow-building sauce that clings to wide noodles. The Lemon Ricotta Raviolini ($25) is the opposite, bright and citrus-forward, with parmesan brodo, Tuscan kale, and chickpeas keeping it fresh and layered instead of heavy. We closed with liquid dessert. The cold brew espresso martini leaned bold and rich, with no syrupy shortcuts. The Cavalletta, built on coconut cream washed fernet, was sharp and bracing, the kind of closing note that keeps the night alive instead of putting it to bed. A perfect digestif. Service was paced with precision, attentive and friendly without feeling rehearsed. La Strega is not just "good for Summerlin." It is a restaurant that can stand next to the Strip's best cuisine while keeping its neighborhood soul. Already planning the return. read more

Talk about when you're going to enter the doors to somewhere new. La Strega blew my taste buds away because each taste was very splendid. I'm going to use strong positive words that best describes the experiences. That said, the waiters were always generous with regal hospitality. They always ensure that we have the best selections as they gave every detail of the food from ordering and serving in which I appreciate. For it to be a fine restaurant, the whole restaurant from in and out is very eye appealing. It's decorated with very bright yet little dimmed tones which to me makes it feels more inviting to a really good fine dining place. As for food, this is probably THE best foods you'll ever get in Las Vegas. I have did my Don Vito's review and I said that it tops Olive Garden and other local Italian restaurant's that tried to give me a lasting impression. La Strega has indefinitely tops all Italian restaurants I have in Vegas including Don Vito's. Every single bite of every food I had was done perfectly with the genuine utmost care. This place wants to tell you their quality and quantity of their dishes really mattered as I can taste their very rich flavor, texture. and ingredients. I can honestly go over each one I had tonight, but when you read this review by the time it comes out will make you really really really go over there and try it. My salad was perfect with its perfect crisp texture and perfect balance of dressing. My pasta is fantastic with its rich flavor. The pizza I had is arguably the best pizza I ever had in Las Vegas. Enough said. I have grown to love fine dining and I would give this place a "must try" opportunity if you have the money for it. The foods were astonishing, the service was excellent, and the restaurant as a whole is on point to be honestly perfect. Be sure to let Josh or any other waiters that you were sent by me coming from my review, and trust me when I say this. You'll not be disappointed. You're going to love La Strega in Las Vegas, Nevada. read more

The fritto misto (fried calamari, shrimp, and artichokes) was the star of the show! Everything else was just okay for me (tiramisu was still slightly frozen in the center and pretty dry, the pasta dish was good but nothing special, and the focaccia was a little too garlicky for my personal preference). Service was very attentive and the restaurant has a good ambiance/ interior design. If half star ratings were possible I would give 3.5/5 read more

So we came again this year for our anniversary. Again La Strega did not disappoint. So we had a reservation for 6:30, it was quite busy upon arrival. No big deal, we sat out side and Travis offered complimentary drink for the wait. Very nice gesture! We enjoyed our champagne. Then got our table. Amanda was our server. She was wonderful. I ordered something different as I try to do.... But it wasn't delish. David was smart and got the same thing Stracci pasta. So I nibbled on his. And the focaccia was amazing onion and grape with mascarpone butter. Amanda asked about my food and I told her, she said no it's your anniversary you get what you want. So she exchanged it for me. Talk about quick! The second order was amazing. Mushroom truffle pasta. What more needs to be said. It was incredible. Amanda was attentive, receptive, alert. She just made the meal that much more enjoyable. It's things like this that keep people coming back. You remember how you felt. Also the food is incredible. Thank you again for nourishing our bellies, and having such an enjoyable evening out! If you haven't been please add this to your must try's! read more

They lost it. They used to be the best. $40 bucks for pasta and tiny shrimp for $40 effing dollar. It was okay at best. They don't option for any other protein like they used to before. Customer next to was a super old guy and he had a staples in his pasta. The wife caught it early. Imagine she didn't see it and the guy died. The shrimp was tiny and chewy.

I honestly can't even begin to express how amazing La Strega is. From the ambiance, to the cocktails, to the service, to the delicious food, to the incredible staff. I reserved the restaurant last week for a wedding dinner party, and it was honestly the best service I've ever had at a restaurant. Waiters and drinks would seemingly magicallly appear when I needed one, extra adorable stools would appear when they saw I needed a place for my bag, the restaurant even provided a mic and speaker for us to use. I was kind of astounded at how amazing the service was. On top of that the food! The steak was excellent, the shared plates were yummy and the mushroom pasta (I'm not remembering the name). I'm so glad I landed upon La Strega. read more

No bread is included with the meal, but that is a ownership complain. Not the serving staff's fault. But with that said, I came in on Monday night at 5pm, and being a former server, I heard two people at the hostess stand saying how a server was really busy. And she was. She handled the chaos with such stride, even when getting table after table. Thank you, Lisa. I will be back to eat some more delicious rigatoni bolognese, which is smoothly, not spicy, and extremely flavorful. The Parmesan cheese tasted freshly grated. read more

The service here was great; we made reservations and were promptly sat as soon as we arrived. Multiple staff members checked in on us throughout our meal; our server was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. I was a bit disappointed with the Roman egg drop soup--it mostly tasted like salted water and lacked much flavor. On the positive side, the pizza and the bread were pretty good and definitely the highlights of the meal. The ambiance was very dark and quite loud, which made it a little hard to relax or have a conversation. Overall, a mixed experience with some good food but a less enjoyable atmosphere. read more

Great ambiance. Wonderful steak and pasta. Stellar service. I'd recommend the calamari.

Dinner at La Strega was nothing short of amazing. We kicked things off with a smoked Old Fashioned for me, while Candice--true to form--went straight for the bread service, featuring grape and white onion focaccia. And yes... because bread. Absolute must-order. For appetizers, we shared the Fritto Misto and the Peruvian Scallops, and that truffle aioli deserves special recognition--rich, balanced, and downright addictive. For mains, Candice ordered the Stracci Braised Beef Cheeks. The beef cheeks were incredibly tender, beautifully shredded, and cooked to perfection. I went with the Rigatoni Wild Boar Bolognese, and wow--perfectly al dente pasta paired with a deeply flavorful, soulful bolognese that honestly rivals (and in my opinion tops) the one we had at Mother Wolf. Dessert was a shared tiramisu à la Betty, and it was the perfect finish--light, creamy, and indulgent without being heavy. The service truly elevated the entire experience. Amanda was attentive, knowledgeable, and refreshingly honest. I was torn between the rigatoni bolognese and the elk shank (which was nearly twice the price). She confidently recommended the bolognese, explaining that while the elk shank is amazing, they're known for the bolognese. I listened--and I genuinely appreciated that she prioritized the best experience over upselling. That kind of integrity goes a long way. Final verdict: flawless execution, thoughtful service, and standout flavors across the board. Chef Gina has created a gem of a restaurant and we will definitely be back! 10 out of 10 meal read more

We have been going around town trying out a lot of the Italian spots and La Strega had long been on our list. We made a reservation for 515 and after a line when the place opened, we were seated quickly. The waitress (Lisa) was great and very informative with options for wine and food. The inside of the place was a beach type feel and seating is spaced nicely where you can't listen to other parties conversations. On that note, the place gets very loud once it fills up, making it hard to have a conversation. Food itself was pretty good but honestly did not live up to expectations. The pizza was underwhelming, but the Calamari appetizer and pastas were both good. read more

Las Vegas located on town center in 215 coming from the other side of town I had high expectations of this place. Happy to report it did not disappoint. Let me start by saying their servers and the bus people. Food runners are all absolutely amazing. We started with the roasted artichoke hearts. They were fabulous, then moved on to the scallops which were light a tad bit crispy and full of flavor The calamari misto was good not great. We asked the server what were their top two dishes she said the pasta with the braised short beef and the Bronzino I gotta tell you this is strip quality food at Neighborhood pricing absolutely fabulous We then moved onto desserts. They bought a beautifully made blueberry crumble with a scoop of ice cream. Everything was handmade home fresh from the pasta to the dessert. Desserts would go back again. read more

Really pretty Italian resto at Summerlin. Service was great and ambience was nice. 1. Frito misto: not usually a big fan of this but this was pretty good. Love the pickled peppers that came with it. 2. Foccacia with burrata: the bread was great. The burrata was more dense and not as runny as I would have hoped but it was good nonetheless with the spicy olive oil they used. 3. Rabbit papardelle: they kindly plated it for two for us. Pasta was cooked perfectly and it was good. 4. Pizza: pizza was also great. Good crust. Overall, La Strega was a pretty good place that I wouldn't mind coming back to. read more

Whenever people ask about where they can find the best italian food in town, la strega is the first place that comes to my mind. In a world of heavy americanized Italian food they stand head and shoulders above the rest. My first experience was many years ago at a yelp event. Since then I have made the pilgramige across town several times to get my fix. First off the service is always excellent. Friendly and professional the waitstaff make you feel welcome and confident that they have a solid understanding of the menu. It takes great management to curate a team that runs as well as theirs does. They have two large rooms, it would be lovely if they could have some outdoor seating as the acoustics can get a bit loud inside, or maybe find a way to dampen the sound. The ambiance however is warm and inviting. Over the years I have found my highlights from the menu that give me great joy. One major plus is that they offer mocktails which are delicious, and they don't just rely on pineapple in all of them to create acid notes. I appreciate this as Im allergic to alcohol and pineapple, so often I only get one option I can have oit fo the mocktail lists at many places. The carpaccio is delicious and it made me forgive them for not having their beef tartar anymore. The stracci is so rounded and deep in flavor. The pasta itself is like delicate scarves in a beautiful pile. Perfect and comforting. The pomodoro seems simple, just a basic tomato sauce on pasta. However the pasta is made and cooked to perfection, and they were able to extract an addictive umame quality while making it. Another pasta I loved but is not on the menu currently was an agnilotti with crab and shrimp in a lemon butter sauce. It had a wonderful brightness to to the dish that made you smack you lips with joy. Their desserts are always solid I often have some form of a budino, which is basically a crazy rich pudding lol my stomach is mad at me later for the intense level of dairy, but my mouth experiences great happiness. Only item I really felt was a flop was the bread plates foccacia which was weirdly sweet and cake like. Im used to mine being more airy and a bit more springy and savory. I will forgive them though and they remain a favorite spot for me in the valley. read more

My wife and I visited for an early post work dinner to celebrate a promotion! We were seated promptly in the front dining area and greeted by our server, Tevin. He made us aware of the chef's tasting menu ($85) and gave us ample time to decide on our meal. We decided to skip the bread service ($7) as neither of us are either foccacia nor ciabatta bread fans. We did enjoy the frito misto, complete with calamari, rock shrimp, crawfish, artichokes, and flavorful red pepper-like vegetables? It came with a tangy dipping sauce and we added some pasta sauce for dipping as well. For our dinners, we shared both the lobster spaghetti ($80) and the squid ink crab fra diavola. The lobster dish came with the head and tail at either end of the plate and the body replaced by delicious lobster covered pasta. Both dishes were the perfect portion and full of flavor. My wife also ordered the kale, which was, kale-like. (I took her word for it.) The only possible room for improvement would of been a bread option we both enjoyed and a bit more light overhead. The main dining room is more well lit. read more

Good not great. Definite flaws but I'll still probably give them another shot. Mostly because the flaws were not in the food. TLDR: very tasty pastas; and the dough on the pizza was remarkable. The flaws (hopefully they'll see this and correct them): There are 2 distinct sections - the main room that is well lit and modern. And then a side room that looks like a living room. We sat in the side room. I loved the aesthetic but it was super dark. Killed the mood throughout the meal. We ordered a couple pastas and a pizza. The wrong pizza came out. They gave a half hearted apology, saying the chef was new. In fact, I don't think they even said the word "sorry". Took about 10 min to get the right pizza. They don't give bread, so we asked for a side of bread to sop up the sauce in the pasta. The server explained they can get us some sourdough. Made it sound like it would be free. Even if it's not, you could just throw it in for free for the pizza snafu. Nope. $4 for 2 little slices of bread. And it wasn't just our server. Everyone we encountered seemed like they didn't want to be there. Woof. The food: Pizza alla Norma (6/10) - This was a mistake. My mom loves eggplant and pine nuts, but the wrong pizza we initially saw looked much better haha (looked like Fat Pig). But, as mentioned, the dough was phenomenal. Will be back for the Fat Pig. Vongole (8/10) - Good but not life changing. Executed well. My dad loved it. He asked for the side bread hehe. Stracci (9/10) - Best of the night. Rich but not as heavy as I imagined it would be. Very tasty. read more

Friends kept talking abiut this place so we gave it a try. Based from our server, we tried the Stracii which was very flavorful and you can tell the noodles were freshly made. The Prosciutto Cotto Pizza was super delicious as well. We also had the Meatballs, which was an appetizer that was super tender. For their Happy Hour drinks we had the Adonis, which good. My wife was disappointed they were unable to make a Lychee Spritz, so cannot comment on that. However our server recommended the Twilight Sprtiz, which my wife did not like, which unfortunately tasted like eating flowers. The interior is highly decorated with upscale decor and dim lighting. The exterior entrance is pretty cool too. We were just turned off when we first entered. The entire dining room was empty, yet we sat & waited, and weren't seated. I had to give my number to the host, then wait for a text message. To me the service was very mechanical and not genuine. Overall, the interior is amazingly decorated and the food quality is awesome and delicious, yet pricey. read more

My husband and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary here and it exceeded all expectations. We love the food, the ambience and the service was top notch. Our server, Amanda was the sweetest. She really took care of us and made our first time memorable. Their pizza was delicious and the Wagyu skirt steak was cooked to perfection. They were out of a certain pasta but Amanda asked the chefs if they can work something out. And they were able to give me the pasta with a different protein, like how amazing is that? Chef Gina also came out and went to every table and took the time to greet us a happy anniversary What an incredible service! 10 out of 10 would recommend. We cannot wait to go back read more
