I recommend Strada!

Advantages: delicious food, fine wine, welcoming staff, great service, pleasant atmoshpere
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. The staff interact with the customers, everybody is very welcoming and pleasant. That is a great place for having romantic dinner but you can also enjoy lunch with little baby. Strada offers highchairs, special Kids Menu with coloring...

Strada Review

Advantages: Delicious Italian Food
Disadvantages: none

...This is one of the most delicious chain restaurants I have ever been too. You do not always need to book to go to Strada although I would recommend doing so on weekend evenings as it can get quite busy. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and full of reccomendations. Alongside the usual menu and wine menu provided also comes the weekly specials, which are well worth a try. While this menu may seem quite small in comparison to other resturants, the quality of the food is far superior and I can guarantee there is something for everyone here. You have the option of ordering garlic bread while you decide on your meal and I highly recommend you do so. Their twist to this Italian favourite is to use pitta style bread and season with springs of rosemary and garlic or basil and pesto. Assuming you plan to leave room for the other...

Not the best seat in the house

Advantages: Good value lunch menu
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-shaped ground floor. We chose to go as far back as we could, a few tables away from the only other people in that area. I took the seat facing the end of the bar and a fire exit. The food menus were already on the table, underneath the linen...

Review of Panasonic CN-GP50N Strada

Small and perfectly formed

Advantages: Size; simplicity
Disadvantages: Large transmitter; Easy to accidentally reset

...Given how much I like cycling, and how much I like gadgets, there are few little toys I get quite so much fun out of as a cycle computer. Ever since my dad first fitted an analogue speedo to my bike as a kid I've had a fascination with how fast and how far I'm riding. So when building up a new bike one of the first things I got for it was this tiny Cateye Strada Wireless. I hadn't intended on spending so much on a computer (£39.99) but the small size of the main unit (about 2cm x 3cm) sold me with its simplicity. Fitting: Without a wire to fiddle about with this could hardly be an easier computer to fit. The cradle for the main unit can be mounted in the normal fashion on the handlebars, or in the centre on the stem, with the unit able to slip into place in one of two positions so that it's always the right way up to read...

Walk away!

Advantages: none
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 she sent the manager over...this was not the usual manager- however he greeted us & we asked about Mothers day. He said they were extremely busy that day- but he'd see what he could do and call us the next day. There was no call- so I...

Pizza in Putney?

Advantages: Delicious food, good prices
Disadvantages: None really

...My friend and I are usually more than happy to slob out in front of the TV with a take-away on a Friday night. Last week, though, we had plans to meet up someone we were at university with a couple of years ago and we didn't particularly want him to see us in all our glory (or distinct lack of). We therefore decided a trip to a local restaurant was in order and as we were meeting in Putney, a restaurant in Putney it was. My friend chose Strada because she'd eaten there before and knew that the food was good as well as being reasonably priced. Location Just off Putney High Street at the intersection with Upper Richmond Road, the restaurant is in walking distance from East Putney and Putney Bridge tube stations. Address: 147 Upper Richmond Road Putney London SW15 2TX Tel: 020 8789 6996 First impressions The restaurant fits...

Review of Strada, Putney

A great venue as a couple or a big group

Advantages: Great food, service and experience
Disadvantages: May be a little pricey for some, but you get what you pay for!

...I visited Strada at Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth the other week for a birthday celebration. We booked a table in advance for 13 people and they were very accomodating. We were all seated upstairs on a long table - no complaints there. There place was full of atmosphere and certainlly looked very nice. One section of the table was a little wobbly, but now I'm just being picky! The first waiter came round with the wine menu and served our selections. The prices were reasonable considering (I think they start at around £18) and the bottles were kept cold in the containers. The food itself isn't cheap (unless you order from the extensive pizza list), but it really is done nicely. The choice of pizzas is amazing and every one is huge and gorgeous. The plain is around £7 and they go upwards from there. Every style of topping from...

A good eat out

Advantages: Bottles of free filtered water
Disadvantages: Staff can be a bit overly enthusiastic

...Up until a few years ago, I had never heard of Strada. Then, one by one, their restaurants started popping up around London and there are now close to 30 of them in the Greater London area alone. Outlets can also be found in Bath, Brighton and Tunbridge Wells, amongst other places. In spite of there being quite a few Stradas, these restaurants have manage to retain an unusual sense of individuality, and when you're in one, you don't feel like you're eating in a chain restaurant at all. The atmosphere is friendly, with a modern and light decor and Stradas tend to be very welcoming. I have been to several Stradas in the London area and a week ago, I went (once more) to the Parsons Green branch. As usual, two bottles of free filtered water arrived at the table immediately. So few places have that and I really think it is such...
