La Strada - American Canyon

Was here for the first the other night for my daughter's birthday. There were 11 of us-big group. Our server was very attentative and helpful to our party. I had the gnocchi with alfredo sauce, while it delicious, I wish I had ordered a protein with it. Our server also asked if we wanted him to cake the we brought with us? (which I was very happy they allowed it inside)-I knew there might be a fee for this, but didn't realize $24.00. It is what is though. ?Good food, service and family. My daughter had a great birthday dinner- Thank you!

Love this restaurant. Delicious Italian food and excellent customer service. The Gnocchi with meat sauce is a favorite.

We had the margarita pizza (7/10) and calamari (1/10) as appetizers. The calamari was chewy and had little to no breading on it, I don't know if it's always like that or we just got a bad batch but either way we weren't fans. The margarita pizza was pretty good, the cheese was my personal favorite part. We then got the soup of the day (8/10) which was delicious. Our entrees were the crab ravioli (9/10) which was absolutely amazing and the meat lasagna (8/10) which was fantastic. Finally we got the bread pudding (8/10) and Lemon gelato (9/10) with some coffee (3/10). The dessert themselves were delicious but the coffee was really watered down. Overall really great and I just realized I spent way too much time making this review.

This is now the second time we've gone here and both times we had a large party. The food is fairly rich so be prepared to enjoy cheese and butter in all their glory. The beet salad is a great change of pace here. The polenta was done excellently with just a hint of sweet to offset the pasta or the gravy. Service wise we had to wait for a lot of dishes but that was because we had so many people in our party. The staff did what they could and thats fine. Online i do think there needs to be a better way to inform the guests which items are not available for which location. We tried to pre order and some of us had to make last second changes because we were not aware.

Nice evening. Heather took good care of us but some of the food was disappointing. The French onion soup was unflavored greasy broth with boiled chopped onions. Not carmelized. Salt helped a little but very disappointing. Ordered seafood risotto. Long grain rice in a pool of liquid. Not arborio rice as it should be. On the plus side the seafood was cooked well but it was not the creamy risotto we expected from an Italian restaurant. It was a decent rice dish but not risotto. I expressed these concerns on their website but never received a reply. We were celebrating our 43rd anniversary on October 20th. Would like to give them another try sometime
