    I travel with my job and when I dine out after work, I always go for the local ‘Staple’ dish/food of the area I am visiting. I was not feeling making the trip to the Wharf for Cioppino and I was not about to go back to Market Broiler on Auto Mall after my dreadful experience on Monday eve, so after some Google research, I stumbled upon this hidden gem, and thought I’d give a ‘Go’. Glad I did!! Service was great (Carly was awesome!) as was the food. Cioppino was delicious, not as good as mine, but it was a solid Runner Up 🙂, and well above the service and quality you’d get over Market Broiler! Great job Strizzi’s, can’t wait to come back to Fremont so I can dine here again!

    We are a family that love Italian food. This place is great. Staff is friendly and offer a nice service. Restroom and in general the restaurant is clean. We were there on a weekend and it wasn’t crowded, we got a table immediately. The size of the portions is moderate, don’t expect a super big plate, which is good for me. From the kids menu, is a perfect size, not too small. I recommend the cheesy bread and my favorite entree was the Salmon saute.

    The meal was nothing short of extraordinary! Each bite was perfectly prepared, brimming with succulence and packed with vibrant flavors that had me toying with the idea of ordering an encore. Our interactions with the hostess and waitress felt heartfelt and sincere. They lavished my friend and me with personalized care throughout our visit, making us feel truly special. Nestled in a cozy booth, we savored the VIP treatment provided by the devoted Strizzi’s team. It was an experience to cherish. Years ago, a creative staff member used to whip up a unique Garlic Parmesan dip on request. It was a shared delight that left an indelible mark on my friends memories. Fortunately, my friend had the recipe engraved in their mind. We requested the necessary ingredients to recreate this fondly remembered dip – red pepper flakes, Parmesan cheese, and fresh garlic. We complemented these with readily available table condiments like salt, pepper, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. Stirring up this flavorful concoction and dipping our bread in it was a gastronomic adventure. The exquisite garlicky dip had us reaching for more throughout our meal. Strizzi’s, you truly deserve a round of applause! I'm eagerly anticipating the resurrection of your Happy Hour. From what I've heard, it was quite the spectacle!

    The food is terrible and overpriced. Firstly, they ran out of the tomato soup we wanted to order. The bread tasted like white bread from the dollar store. The clam chowder was perhaps the most underwhelming clam chowder I had ever tasted. Next, I could not stomach the chicken that was barely cooked and unseasoned. Overall, a poor example of italian food. The only good thing was the waiters because they had nothing to do with cooking the food.

    My family and I went to Strizzi's for dinner the other night. We were a party of seven. The waitress and over all service was great. However I was not impressed with the pork chops I ordered. The cut was thin and the pork chops were dry. Should I go back I will not order those again. The rest of the family was satisfied with their meal. I did like the bread they put on the table.

    It is a very different vibe from the Pleasanton one although it is more spacious and has more parking availability being that it is at a shopping center. The food tastes the same, they have cushiony booth seating options versus the regular dining table chairs. The bar is quite huge and they take catering orders too! Our pleasanton experience has set our expectations high for them but I think they passed.

    Did a takeout here. And the place was packed! Been looking for a good Italian place that's close to home. My risotto with Cajun chicken was fantastic! Think I'll become a regular here!

    The server ignored us after being sat for around 10 minutes. People who came after us were greeted and served before we were acknowledged. The server did eventually come over. The main issue with the food here is that it is severely bland. I mean no flavor. We had to douse our entrees with salt just to get the down. The pesto cheesy bread has no pesto. The calamari was very lightly fried with no seasoning. The sauce it came with was good. The pasta dishes were so disappointing. It was a big let down for our dining experience. This was supposed to be a nice meal celebrating my son starting college on Monday. We were not impressed. Better Italian food for the money can be found at Melos. We won't return.

    I enjoyed the cheese ravioli 😊! Staff was very kind and friendly and I came during early lunch hour about 12:00pm

    This was our first time and we were pleasantly surprised that this is a locally owned chain and has a plenty of choices for vegetarians. The staff was very welcoming and attentive and served us with smile. They did not rush to turn-over the tables to churn more customer count. The food was delicious and the portions were generous. The prices are reasonable for a full-service restaurant that prepared meals from scratch and BETTER tasting than Magianno’s. They also had Fremont Police Officers serving tables for a fundraising for local Special Olympic chapter so that made our first visit even more special. There is a plenty of parking spots as this is located in a large shopping center. Happy to support this local small business and will definitely go there again.

    Good food for chain location. Service as always was quite good. Prices a bit high though.

    I got the lasagna and it was okay. My coworker got the wings and loved them. The service was very good. The bar area looked pretty cool in setup, but the dining area the seats were worn and the top of the material was half off.

    The food is mostly good, I've had a couple of dishes that looked better than they tasted. But most of the time, I end up liking what I order. In terms of service, it can be hit or miss. It depends on who is serving you. There had been a couple of times when our server was either new and clueless, or the server was defensive when we pointed out an error. But other times, we get really good food and really good service. The last time we ate there, I ordered the Asian Salmon with Risotto and vegetables. I was very surprised about how much I loved that dish. My husband ordered chicken parmesan and didn't care for it. My daughter always orders chicken pasta alfredo and loves it.

    I felt very... young. The restaraunt is definitely more popular with the older folks. That's totally OK, but just worth noting if you're looking for a fun spot for a date or something. A few TVs and a bar as well, so not exactly fancy. Totally a jeans and t-shirt kinda vibe. Food was quite good, but expensive for the portion sizes. I had a $12 slice of cake that was so good it was almost worth the $12. But I mean $12 is pretty steep. Wait staff were above average.

    Had a delightful time when dinning in. Tha bar tender was excellent and familiar with my drink requests.. The food was delicious. Very excellent service.

    Great location and atmosphere. Usually service is quick -- but the last time the kitchen had a big catering order so the service was slower than normal. I strayed away from my normal choices and went for the Cajun pasta - sorry to say that it was NOT good. To their credit they comp'd the meal. Another great "extra" between 4-6pm all entrees come with a free side (soup or salad). I had the tomato bisque and it was excellent.

    Great food and service! I got a salad and pasta combo and found the food fresh and tasty. Specifically, I really enjoyed the Asiago and Garlic Ravioli, which had amazing flavors, but wasn’t too heavy. The restaurant has nice seating and the service is friendly and fast.

    Hardworking overwhelmed servers, very expensive food, salad dressed with candied walnuts to make it fancy, artichoke cooked with tough skin on

    We have been going here for 12 years, and sadly the quality has permanently declined. We already gave feedback that the soup became very salty, the pasta is salty, and staff is not trained (doesn't know what Pellegrino means). Management said they'd improve but nothing has changed. Olive Garden is much better. We hope Strizzi's someday will try to improve.

    Excellent food and service. Indoor and Outdoor dining service available. Menu has plenty of options. I've been here twice and both times my server was very responsive to answering questions, making suggestions, and filling requests, and they checked in occasionally to be sure everything was ok and ask if we needed anything. I ate outdoors both times and the tables are spaced far enough apart that you feel comfortable in moving around freely, having conversational space without having your neighbors' conversations compete with yours, and provide sufficient social distancing. Seating is adequate for heavier persons. Very clean environment, though they worry about the natural dust landing on their glass tabletops making it look not so clean. But I can tell the difference between a table not adequately washed free of food matter and a little bit of dust. I've not dined indoors, but it appears to be a cozy environment with dimmer lighting. Seating is still spaced far enough apart to feel comfortable. The prices are a bit higher here, but the environment, quality and quantity of food, and great service make every penny spent worth it. My only warning is that the heaters were all stolen from their outdoor patio, so if the weather is cooler you might want to consider eating indoors.

    This was my first trip to Strizzi's and it was amazing! Our waitress was amazing, she was not only a good host, she was attentive, funny, knowledgeable, and helpful! She made great recommendations for both food and drinks. The food was so good! I got the seafood fettuccine, the sauce was so good I could have just eaten that and been happy. My parents had visited before and they told me that it was nothing special but they were so wrong. I can't wait to go eat there again!
