Best Italian restaurant in Canada

N	Nina on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The food was quite good, service was excellent. It can get a tad expensive but that's true of any fancy Italian restaurant. Please have the decency to dress nice to this place, you're just embarrassing yourself. My one complaint is that the parking lot is a dirt parking lot and being it rained it was a huge puddle so I had to sacrifice my right heel in puddle water to make it out. The plates we order are; veal, lasagna, the sampler and the pescatore.
L	Lynda N on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We went for my friends 30th. We were a group of 6 and none of us had been there before. Our server was great- very friendly, social and attentive. The food was tasty and everyone was happy with their meal. We only wished there was more of it!! We were a bit worried being seated by the window because of the cold, but they had heaters all along the sides so it was not an issue at all.
L	Lynn Harnden on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ La Strada has incorporated a takeout option very successfully. Food is always on time, well organized and the quality transports to home without a loss of flavour. Pasta is still the best in the City.
B	Bill Bratt on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had a table of 9 visit La Strada for the first time, it was a fantastic overall restaurant experience. Appetizers included: fried calamari, grilled calamari and fried smelts - the calamari was very tender and tasty, the smelts had a special little 'kick' to them! There were also oven roasted ribs that I opted to have as a main. These ribs were, bar none, the best ribs that I've ever enjoyed!! A bit sticky, a bit spicy, nice garlic flavour and fall off the bone delicious!! Mains included: grilled lamb chops, veal parmigiano, veal involtini, lobster ravioli, lasagna and manicotti. Every dish was served piping hot and beautifully presented. Everyone in the group thoroughly enjoyed their meals! We were welcomed by Rick as we walked in and were treated wonderfully by staff. Carlo, Rick's brother is the chef - I popped into the kitchen following our meal to thank him and was met by a pro who took great pride in our enjoyment. You can see that a happy chef is a successful chef! Future trips to Ottawa will definitely include a return trip to La Strada!!
T	Tu Vuong on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The apps were good, but the veal (their special for the evening) was done to perfection. Service was excellent. Nice vibe - a great choice to celebrate our anniversary!
S	Sandi G on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Had a birthday dinner for four there last night. Absolutely delicious, all food was just excellently prepared. Great service, and a very nice venue. Can’t recommend it enough!
T	Terry Sabourin on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Both my wife and I really enjoy going to La Strada. There is great options to suit all tastes, prices are reasonable for the quality of your food. They staff well and your waiter/waitresse are very friendly. The food, spectacular! I have a big appetite and with an app and a main often dont have room for dessert. I would strongly suggest you try it.
L	Long Tran on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We were there this weekend and loved everything! The service was great and the food excellent - we really enjoyed the special (ribs). Definitely the best carbonara I've had in the city. Negroni & Tiramisu were both on point. Great value too, would go again anytime.
