Strada

Strada - does what it says on the tin

14 Apr 08, 15:02 As expected

As Strada's a chain restaurant I already knew what to expect when I went to the one in Chelmsford. You won't get revolutionary or even particularly authentic Italian cuisine but you will get reasonable prices for quite good food. What sets the Chelmsford branch apart from other Stradas I've been to is the seating courtyard at the front of the restaurant - bearing in mind it faces directly onto a busy town centre road they've done really well to make it feel secluded. Not a great place to sit with the current weather of rain/snow/hail (delete as applicable) but come the summer it's a lovely way to eat your panna cotta.
