STRADA by Matteo

The staff was exceptional! They were so kind and knowledgeable. I have celiac disease so eating out can be sort of a struggle sometimes and the staff here made my experience so easy and wonderful. When we asked for recommendations, the cashier gave us the most helpful information possible and we both deeply enjoyed our meals because of his recommendations. The meals themselves were were exceptionally well prepared, the pasta was Al dente (even my gluten-free pasta which is quite the feat), and the vodka sauce was delicious. The parmesan cream sauce was also really good, but it separated a bit with how much butter was in it (not something I'm going to complain about!). I added chicken to mine and the chicken was delicious. Often at Italian style restaurants such as this one, if the protein

Pretty bad, especially for the price. I got the Nonna Romana sandwich and it was disappointing on almost every level. It's advertised as mortadella, burrata and pistachio. Instead you get a pistachio cream sauce. At least I assume that's what the bland off green sauce was supposed to be. No pistachio flavor and certainly no pistachio texture. They are VERY skimpy with the mortadella. If I'm dropping $17 for a sandwich I expect more than 2 thin slices of mortadella. The burrata was fine I guess, but nothing special. The bread had potential but the bottom was sort of soggy and didn't have much flavor overall. Let's just say that I won't be back. For the money there are too many better options nearby. Hell, even Jimmy John's is better and at about 1/2 the price. I'm hard pressed to see wh

We had dinner here tonight and left with big smiles — not just because of the food, but because of the incredible attention we received from Mariana at the counter. From the moment we arrived, she made us feel truly welcome. She was kind, attentive, and went above and beyond to help us with every single request without hesitation. That kind of genuine hospitality is rare and makes all the difference. The food was really enjoyable — well-prepared and satisfying, a solid choice for a nice dinner out. But honestly, what elevated the whole experience was the warmth and professionalism that Mariana brought to her work. She's a true asset to this restaurant. We'll definitely be coming back, and we hope to find Mariana there again. If you're looking for a place where you'll be treated like a valu

Unfinished restaurant that looks half built and open too early. Still decided to give it a try, ordered to go, and was unsurprisingly disappointed. Ordered a half chicken parm and an order of pacherri bolognese. Chicken cutlet was overcooked on the chicken parm and the rest of the sandwich was utterly flavorless. The bolognese tastes almost identical to a can of chef boyardee ravioli which is actually horrific for the prices that they are charging. Over 30$ dollars for a lunch that tastes like a child who was left at home without supervision made for themselves.

The food here is wonderful. I tried STRADA because the food at Matteo is so good, and had to see what their fast casual take on that was like. The menu here has a lot of options that can be done as gluten free both as pasta and paninis. The gf noodle is one of the best that I have tried, and it pairs great with the offered sauces. The gluten free paninis are huge and have a ton of flavor. This will become a regular lunch spot for my wife and I.
