Strada - Barnes
About Strada - Barnes
Most Londoners, honorary or by birth, have eaten at Strada at least once. The stylish Italian group consistently offers good value traditional food in smart surroundings, each individually designed so that diners have little sense of eating in a chain, albeit a very successful one. Strada Barnes occupies a grand, airy old brick building overlooking the Thames nextdoor to famous jazz pub, the Bull's Head. In the evenings, night lights twinkle atmospherically around the room. On the menu are simply-prepared pastas, risottos and grilled meat and fish dishes. But woodfired pizza is the specialty, especially the rossa - pepperoni, chilli, salami, onion, oregano and peppers. Affordable wine list. Service is fast, friendly and professional.
