   After looking at many Easter brunch options where you pay a flat overpriced fee and feel like you have to stuff yourself, we found Alta Strata which had enough diversity in choices on their brunch menu and priced per entrée or item. Nice they also had a kids menu and my 8 year old picky eater said it was “best French toast” she ever had. I had spinach asparagus frittata which was very fresh and tasty. Son cleaned hi chicken fried stake plate. Good good, good value. Good location off the green in mosaic-merrifield.

   Excellent food - the burrata app and tagliatelle ragu were big hits. The teenagers loved the baked ziti and gelato assortment. The parents enjoyed the fabulous cocktails and diverse wine by the glass list. Our new favorite special occasion place!

    This was the WORST dining experience I have ever had!! First, It was freezing outside and the restaurant was just as cold! I asked the waiter if they had the heat on and he said they did but the heat gets trapped in the kitchen…I’ve dined in plenty of places all over the country and the world and I’ve never heard of this!!! Now the food…I went with my husband, mom and my two kids. All of our food was disgusting except the kids fries…my husbands pasta was the worst. It was so bad we had to tell the waiter, he apologized and got him another plate which was a little better but still pretty bad. I didn’t eat my eggplant parm and the waiter asked me if there was something wrong with it and I told him yes, it was bad. The waiter apologized and said we weren’t having a very good first impression of the restaurant and I told him no. We paid the bill, still gave the waiter a tip and left. No manager ever came to our table to apologize for our dissatisfaction with the temperature of the restaurant or the food. Horrible!!!!

    Very few places around our area have the service and food level on par with each other, both extremely high. Alta Strada of Mosaic is one of these rare places. It used to be our go-to place pre COVID, and the pandemic made our visits less often, but returning to our favorite local restaurant, meeting the amazing staff, and enjoying again from the fresh and innovative menu was a delight. The Burata was on point, so fresh and so tasty, the squash in this dish really did a trick. the greens salad with Truffle was also amazing. the Mussels dish was huge, such a nice surprise, cooked to perfection, and the giant chicken parm was - just it - giant and good. Paired with some great cocktails - the Negroni was on point, and so does the local take on an Old Fashion We'll def return! see you next time!

    The service and food are always great. The mini is linear - which allows for quick service - but lots of unique and classic options. The ambiance is great and serves for a great happy hour, casual special occasion, or date night location.

    I had the eggs in purgatory and they were far too salty. The blood orange mimosa tasted like just orange juice. The waitress did not seem knowledgeable. I requested eggs over medium versus easy and she had to go ask the chef. This sort of simple request should’ve been easy. She said it all depends on how busy the resta My friend asked for egg whites only in the frittata and she was unsure about that request. For the cost of this restaurant, they shouldn’t be using premade mixes. If someone has a yolk allergy, she should accommodate.

    A fine dinner at Alta Strada this week. One of us had the baked ziti (enough for three people!) and I had the shrimp scampi as my entree; even though it is listed as an appetizer, it is quite filling and delicious. And dunking their garlic bread into the sauce was amazing. Our server was friendly without being overly familiar and aware of our needs -- his timing with drinks was spot-on. Alas, the only negative (and that is too strong of a word for this) was the food runner. She was obviously not having a good day. Perhaps a day off would help lighten her mood.

    Overall great except they sat all tables right near each other when it could have been much more spread out. Was like they only sat two sections of the entire restaurant. Also they kept us near the door so the entire dinner we were freezing with the draft. Sever & food were very good.

    Food was great, but apparently they were short staffed on the evening that I was there. Our food took about 40 minutes to arrive, but first they delivered our plates to the table behind us. My daughters food sat in front of someone else until the server realized it was the wrong table, then she proceeded to bring the plate to us. She apologized, and offered to make a fresh dish, but we did not want to wait another 40 minutes. During Covid, I think the servers should be a little more careful about knowing which table the food should be delivered. I was not too bothered about the food being late, sometimes that happens, but to let food sit in front of someone else during Covid is unacceptable.

    Excellent service by Gino, personable and charismatic. The buratta app was one of the best flavor combos ive experienced recently. The sweet tang of the vinegarette and pomegranette seeds stood up to the nuttinesss of the hazlenuts and earthiness of the squash. The cheese was merely a vessel for the flavors to meet on. Moving on to the cacio e pepe, it might have been the best ive had in a restruant. Pasta was a perfect al dente and the spice was a perfect level to break through the sharpness of the pecorino. Lastly I had an espresso(pulled beautifully, only complaint was it was an overly large cup for a shot but thats really a nonissue) and the bomboloni was extremely fluffy. Hazlenut creme was a taste of a sophisticated nutella but the strawberry jam was not my favorite. All in all the exec chef has a creative head on his shoulders all while sticking to some traditional italian roots. For the price point this is a must visit restruant.
