    Advantages Advantages Good value lunch menu

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Rubbish bin in full view; inaccuracies in menu

    Just after 4pm on a Sunday afternoon in December, one of my sons and I were ready for a very late lunch after returning a faulty item to a shop in Gunwharf Quays, Portsmouth. Being very familiar already with Cafe Rouge and two of the Italian chain restaurants, Zizzi and Pizza Express, we decided to try out Strada, even though my other son had experienced poor service there and didn't recommend it. It was a quiet time between lunch and dinner, and when we asked for a table for two the waitress pointed towards the back of the restaurant, with no suggestion of taking a table at the front of the L ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Amazing food, high quality, great service and they are everywhere to be enjoyed

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No kids menu, the look and feel of the restaurants can be improved

    I love businesses that give employees the power to delight the customer: I infuriate my family and friends by pointing these little things out, I watch how the manager treats the staff, how they interact with them and then witnessing how the staff are empowered to solve problems. I don’t even mind things going wrong as long as it is solved well enough! If you are slightly strange or work in HR like me, then you will appreciate Strada. If HR is not your bag or you are normal, then I am certain you will like it anyway. It is one of the larger restaurant chains now (71 around the UK at last ... more

    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages none

    Disadvantages Disadvantages staff, service, food and prices.

    I have had many years experiance of various Italian restaurants- all over the uk- and also abroad. I often go to Lakeside Shopping Centre- located in West Thurrock, and often end up staying until the shops close at 10pm- so I also often end up eating out there. There are lots to chose from, and myself, mother and daughter decided to book a table at Strada for mothers day- as we'd been there several times- and really enjoyed it. To start with- when we tried to book a table- as we were in the area- we went in to book in person. I asked to book- and the waitress didn't seem to understand me- so ... more

    5 Stars I recommend Strada! 12/02/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages delicious food, fine wine, welcoming staff, great service, pleasant atmoshpere

    Disadvantages Disadvantages They do not cook lasagna which is a pity

    I recommend Strada to all of you who likes good food for very good price. Strada is a great Italian Restaurant with great food and excellent service. This restaurant offers a range of traditional pizzas, pastas and also steaks, chicken, pork and fish. Every guest is offered an old fashion bottle of complementary filter water. At Strada you can enjoy a bottle of very good quality wine for very reasonable price as well. Strada is a restaurant I can always rely on for excellent food and wine, very friendly staff, fast service and wonderful atmosphere - nice, quiet music and candles in the evening ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Delicious food, Friendly staff

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Maybe too quiet, not really suitable for a romantic meal! Cold if they open the patio doors!

    I went to the Strada restaurant in Nottingham on a Saturday Lunchtime. Although it was quiet, the atmosphere in the restaurant was very nice, maybe a bit too quiet as there was no ambient music. The staff I found very friendly and attentive. As it was a warm day, they did open the patio doors which we were sat near. However, as the restaurant was in a shady place, it was a little too cold. They did have, what I consider to be a very extensive menu. I did have a good look at the pre-theatre menu which looked very good and value for money and I would gladly go back there to try that! Off the ... more
