Strega is famous for its dramatic decor, celebrity clientele, unmatched hospitality, and most of all, the unforgettable Italian cuisine. It’s also notorious for being one of the most difficult restaurants in Boston in which to get a seat, and has been hailed as having “Boston’s Most Coveted Table Reservation”. But what is it about this small, charming restaurant that makes it the most in-demand spot in the city night-after-night, year-after-year?
The Strega phenomenon exploded in 2003. Local customers filled its tables with such regularity that local and nation media had no choice but to take notice. Today, stars such as Justin Timberlake, Lebron James, Lorraine Bracco, Kate Hudson, Vincent Pastore, Diddy, John Mayer and many others call Strega their home when visiting Boston.
