6-7 Montpelier Street, Cheltenham GL50 1SX.
Tel 01242 253410
Since Strada opened its doors in Cheltenham last summer, it has proved to be a popular place to dine. The restaurant is contemporary in style, with a warm, inviting interior and outside seating also available. The menu is dedicated to providing exactly the kind of rustic, traditional dishes one would expect to find travelling around Italy - handmade pastas with fresh sauces, risottos, chargrilled meat and seafood, pizza and classic Italian desserts in addition to specials and seasonal additions.
Notable dishes, made using only the very finest fresh ingredients, include Filetto di Manzo al Pepe Verde (pan-roasted fillet of beef with a creamy shallot and peppercorn sauce served with buttered green beans and garlic and thyme gratin potatoes) and Pollo Romana (pan-fried chicken breast wrapped in sage and prosciutto served with garlic and thyme gratin potatoes and green beans).
A range of traditional pizzas - each one theatrically spun by hand - is also an integral feature of Strada’s menu. Options include the Rustica (a mouthwatering combination of chargrilled Neapolitan sausage, oven-roasted baby artichokes, capers, roasted Italian tomatoes, caramelised onions and fresh oregano). Strada serves purely regional Italian wines, as well as beers and spirits, which have all been carefully chosen to complement the menu. In addition every table receives complimentary bottled filtered water.
