Well here I go again. I could just say "DITTO" to my last review.
Today it was their meatball Stromboli and meatball parm. sub. Can't get any better.
The owner operated restaurant is very consistent with their food quality. They are very generous with toppings and fillings. The service is second to none. Any better service would require the wait staff to hand feed me.
My wife and I only ate half of our meal. So, we ordered a medium pepperoni and bacon pizza to go (along with what we couldn't eat at lunch) to go. Now, two more days of La Strada's at home.
Oh! By the way, Their house made meat sauce is sold by the container and freezes well. Buy some to put on your own pasta.
Now, I only wish they had a more diverse dessert menu.
GO ITALIAN ** GO LA STRADA !! ( had to do this ).Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Sep 16, 2012Previous reviewThe 5 stars are for the food. Restaurant atmosphere will get 4 stars.
Lisa and I enjoyed lunch again today. The food is consistently great and it's always good when the owner is the head chef.
Richard and his wife, Phyllis, are the owners and make sure that you are happy and stuffed.
On today's visit, Lisa and I were 2 of 5 patrons; until over 20 people came in together. Our and the only waitress working at this time, MEGAN handle the influx like a pro. She took orders and delivered without missing a step. She never got flustered. Kudos to her and the owners.
I don't like very much, but, I do suggest that you try La Strada Pizza & Pasta for all your Italian cravings.Dec 18, 2011Previous reviewSince my first review, my wife and I have been back several times. The quality of the food is only surpassed by the service we receive. Still a must try restaurant. Just so you will not think I have been bragging too much about this restaurant, I will say that the men's restroom could be updated. NO OFFENSE !
Nov 11, 2011Previous reviewMy wife and I have discovered the best pizza/Italian restaurant in Union County. The pizza is exceptional. The chicken parm is put together with ingredients that will challenge your Italian grandmother. Even the basic meatball sub is delicious. Fantastic!
The restaurant is sports bar oriented, but could easily be changed into an upscale dining venue. It's well worth your time. - Doug Y.Maple Valley, WA0472Aug 27, 2012
I can only speak for the pizza, but we found that the pie was nothing special. They use canned vegetables, so the mushrooms were like rubber. Service was good, but considering we were the only family there on a Monday evening, it was easy to keep tabs on our needs. :) It is rather pricey, so for the money, I don't think we will be back.

Pizza was decent, very generous with the cheese! However, I rated this place only 2 stars because they advertise it as "brick oven" pizza. Being from the NY/NJ area, my idea of classic brick oven pizza is more of a thin, airy/crispy crust that ashes over in spots and can almost look burned around the edges; similar to what you find at Luisa's or Revolution Pizza. If classic brick oven is what you have in mind, save yourself a trip because this is definitely NOT what they serve at La Strada's. The pizza wasn't bad, but not what I had in mind in terms of brick oven pizza, nor was it worth the trip. I also tried the baked ziti which was good for the price (good portion), but it came with a greasy piece of garlic bread which wasn't very appetizing. Finally, the service was ok but, for what is worth, it is good business practice to acknowledge guests for their patronage...the hostess/server and manager never bothered to say goodbye or thanks for coming, or hope you enjoyed dining with us, or come see us again. I could look past this if it was busy; however, it was early afternoon and the place was practically empty when we arrived and there was no one else in the restaurant when we left. Superior pizza and service at Luisa's.
