Whether nibbling on small plates at the antipasti-wine bar, sipping an espresso, or having a meal in the open dining room, Alta Strada will always be approachable and accessible to anyone and everyone. With a true smile and the genuine desire to take care of you while you’re “in our house”, Alta Strada will focus on the foods of Tuscany, Emilia-Romagna, Piedmont, and the Amalfi coast, while attempting to fill the much needed gap in Italian restaurants in America. Simply put, Alta Strada will be the place where you’ll find a perfectly made bowl of pasta, crispy thin pizza, gorgeous and abundant antipasti, and fantastic wines, all at a reasonable price, in a setting that could be found on a stylish via in Milan or Rome.

    Third time here, this visit was underwhelming. Food was ok - pasta undercooked, arugula salad weighed down by thickly cut mushrooms, all dishes were lukewarm, not many dessert options. Ambiance and service were good.

    Our dinner was delicious, as usual. the only drawback was the noise. So loud it was almost impossible to talk to each other.

    I've been to Alta Strada multiple times and it's absolutely spectacular every time. Guy and his staff are tremendous. The food and service is exceptional and the atmosphere also fantastic. A great place for a date night or family dinner. I highly recommend it and will be returning soon.
