   We have previously enjoyed eating here but at our last visit, we had a problem. The indoor table next to us had a dog at their table. These guests appeared to be workers or friends of workers so their table became a hangout with other staff coming over to admire and play with the dog. Then the workers proceeded to move another table over and bring a large tray of silverware to begin loudly wrapping the silverware into napkins. This was around 8 pm and needless to say it detracted from a pleasant dining experience.. I would be wary of going here if they allow dogs indoors at tables and if they allow their staff to congregate loudly near other diners.

   Long wait for our food with two kids. $10.50 for a small bowl of spaghetti with butter for the kids. Waitress was nice but experience was not positive.

   Nothing special aboit this place, but it's not bad either. There are better places in Mosaic District for a better value.

   Alta Strada probably translates as "Throw hot peppers on it." I made the rookie mistake of not looking at the menu when I placed the reservation. Most of the dishes have pepper - and a lot - on the plate. If hot is not your jam, best move on. Service was best described as charitable. And my waitstaff is not my " friend" as I was referred to. Once the food was served she disappeared and was never seen again until well after we had finished. We watched the little tykes runnning around on the patio in front of the restaurant to stay amused and pass the time.

   We had the best time!! Tom was amazing and finishing the meal with his famous cinnamon/sugar balls really brought the meal together. Tom’s balls were so good we took them home to enjoy the next day

   Seated us promptly. Menu is somewhat small, but food was freshly prepared and delicious. Service was attentive without being overbearing. Definitely worth the trip!
