LA STREGA BISTRO – Restaurant
The Waterford Lakes branch of La Strega on North Alafaya Trail keeps the same Italian playbook: aperitivo hour with Negronis sbagliati and Aperol spritzes, then a menu that runs deep into pasta. Ravioli, spaghetti al filetto di pomodoro, carbonara and frutti di mare share space with four risotti and secondi built around filetto, veal milanesa and ossobuco. The Neapolitan pizzas are worth a look, particularly the namesake La Strega. Tiramisu or cannolo to close, limoncello if you are staying. Open through the afternoon, which makes it a rare east-Orlando option for a late lunch.
