I've been to Strada in Islington several times and have never left disappointed. They serve a variety of pasta dishes and pizzas and a great selection of fish. I ate a baby octupus for the first time in Strada!
The food arrived very quickly and was lovely and hot, portions were perfectly sized and left me feeling satisfied, rather than bloated, and with enough space for that all important desert.
Although they don't have an amazing selection, what they do serve is delicious. I can recommend the hot chocolate cake with vanilla icecream. Divine!

I had a meal with family at this branch of Strada recently, and was impressed.

They give you complimentary bottled table water, which was a refreshing change from other restaurants.

The menu had a vast choice of dishes and it took a long time to decide.

I had seafood lingiune, and it was delicious. My sister was pleased with her king prawns and salad, and my Dad had a seafood stew. Pizzas I saw being taken to other tables looked very nice too.

The portions were good sizes, and served nice and hot.

We shared a dessert of melting middle chocolate pudding and ice cream. It was very nice, but not really hot enough.

The prices are fairly standard, although if you go to Strada in the week there are good value lunch offers.

Overall, I was impressed and would return to a Strada.
