Strega Italiano Back Bay

Strega Italiano Back Bay in Boston is delicious Italian food with a 5 star service. I felt really fancy when I ate here. The server made us feel special. He accommodated the menu when he could to perfect our expectations and experience. They checked in on my group throughout the whole service. My group traditionally started the meal with splitting appetizers. The standout of the meal was the wedding soup. It was super yummy! The soup was enriched with flavorable meatballs, diced up vegetables, and define pasta. I also got the polpette too. The polpette was delicious beef and pork meatballs that were tossed with pomodoro sauce. This appetizers is definitely big enough to split with a few folks. The group got salumie formaggi grand board too. The charcuterie board was customisable to our group's palette of cheses and meat. Everything tasted really fresh and catered to our liking. The bread of table was really delicious too. Cavetelli salsicca was my main dish of the meal. It was a pasta enriched dish with sweet Italian sausage and brocceli rabe. The pasta had a white sauce that wasn't of my liking. Upon requesting, the service was able to swap the white sauce for a new mariana sauce. This accommodation saved the dish for me. The red sauce really highlighted the heat from the sweet Italian sausage. The bathrooms are really clean here too. Overall everything was really maintained ordered. The meal and service were a five star meal that deserves all its attention.

This upscale Italian place hit all the marks for us at our birthday dinner this weekend. It was fancy but approachable, with a relaxed atmosphere and none of the shrill shrieking that characterizes a typical outing in Boston these days. Even large parties of 10 or more people behave themselves admirably. Service was polished and confident, and never intrusive, and the food was outstanding. My veal Milanese was one of the best I've had, and I have to say the portion sizes were just a tad too generous so be careful when you order appetizers!

Be prepared to spend money! But it’s worth every penny bc the food, service and ambience is exactly as it should be. Make sure you dress up business casual since it’s an upscale restaurant, and I would park on the street or uber since the parking garage is also expensive. Had a wonderful time and will definitely be back.
