Slow service

Perhaps I went in on a bad day, but on a Saturday evening in November the service was terrible. All around me people were trying to flag down waiters and find out where their food was. The staff weren't apologetic either!
I was really narked that they automatically add 10% to your bill for service. As bad as some people are at tipping, this really ought to be discretionary.
I like Strada food, but in future if I'm eating out round here I'll go elsewhere - Carluccio's is pretty good.

Excellent Italian

The problem with chains is that they can be hit or miss depending on which branch you visit. The Strada is Brunswick Square is certainly the best Strada I've ever eaten at in my view. The staff are really friendly and service is prompt and efficient. It's also relatively inexpensive and you feel you get good value.
Recommended items on the menu - Aglio, Gamberoni, Spaghetti al Ragu or Linguine alla pescatora.
A good Italian

I love Italian food and Strada is a nice restaurant nearby. We were served promptly and by what appeared to be genuine Italians! The food came quickly and was very nicely cooked. Probably not as good as an independent "real" Italian restaurant but I was suitably impressed and shall be going there again soon.
