Strada Italiano honors Chef Anthony Cerrato’s Italian heritage and hospitality with authentic, house-made pasta and regional Italian specialties that are prepared à la minute (aka cooked to order) in a cozy old world-style trattoria in downtown Asheville, NC. We offer many options for gluten and other dietary sensitivities. Next door, The Social Lounge at Strada is Asheville’s original rooftop cocktail bar, offering an alfresco dining experience. Strada is a Certified Green Restaurant and since our opening in 2012, we’ve consistently earned high honors in the Mountain Xpress’ Best of WNC reader’s poll for Best Italian and Best Pasta in Asheville. Reservations accepted.
