Strings Italian Cafe

Wonderful surprise located in historic old town Yreka. Very friendly Tasha made us feel welcome. The menu holds many choices, from traditional italian dishes to new combinations of pasta with seafood, meats, vegetarian, plus pizzas and calzones.
Food: we both chose salad as our side, and it arrived in a large bowl, plenty for both, with fresh baked herb bread. Mains:Italian sausage calzone, filled with tons of cheese, sausage bits, peppers, baked in a light pastry with a good chew. Spaghetti lunch was a savory meat (ground beef) sauce with peppers and tomatoes over tender pasta. We were too full for dessert!
Interior is comfy, pleasant, seems brand new. Even a back patio for nice days. Clean bathrooms too.
Make this a destination just about 3 minutes off I-5. Good thrift stores in old town plus a cool meat market, and candy, coffee, book and gift stores

We love this restaurant! Two of our co-workers recommended checking Strings out and we’re glad we did because no matter what we’ve ordered off the menu it’s all been fantastic! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Also best lemon 🍋 drop drinks ! (Awesome service as well 🌟)

My husband and I stopped in while traveling and it was wonderful. The food was fabulous with wonderful flavor. I had the salmon and hubby had the scampi. It's a family owned Cafe and we had the pleasure of meeting two of the owners. Well we think they were the owners lol. So friendly and personal. We will be back. Love finding places like this. You will not be disappointed. Stop in. I just retired so it was a great start to a new chapter. Thanks ladies!! Dave and Shelly Naple Castle Rock WA

This place is great... we had lunch... food was delicious, the waitress was fantastic and the whole place looks and feels like your sitting in a small restaurant in Italy... great atmosphere.
Would love to come back for dinner.
Prices were fair and reasonable and just what you would expect for this type of restaurant...
Highly recommend...

The food was amazing. The bread was great. I ordered the veggie pizza and my girlfriend got the chicken parmesean. The pizza was awesome. All fresh veggies. The white sauce was great. And the crust was delicious. Definitely recommend. My girlfriend's chicken parmesan was very tasty as well. The alfredo sauce was delicious. Their minestrone is house made and was great as well. Perfect for the cold weather. Heather, the waitress, was great as well. Thank you for a great time.

I really liked this restaurant. The portions were generous, the food was tasty, and the staff was friendly. I stopped in for lunch and had the recommended meatball sandwich which with included soup or salad, a pasta salad, and warm seasoned bread. The sandwich was large enough that I took the second half to go.

Strings is an amazing find for Italian food. We went for lunch and the food was delicious. Portion size was good for the price and presentation was spectacular. It truly felt like a fine dining experience!

There is ample dining space and the lady bartender was lovely and welcomed us. Parking is behind the restaurant !

The lemon cake was great And so was r food. R server was so nice . My only complaint is I want to go back but the closest one is north ca and I live in Washington!

Excellent food, excellent service, we traveled a good distance for this meal, and we couldn't be happier with the decision. The baked lasagna is EPIC!! Come and try it.

Thank You very much guys. 😁

Awesome little town! We were traveling through and caught a road side motel late in the evening, and saw that we could still catch a late dinner, so we rushed into the main square and had a delicious late dinner. Even though the restaurant was busy, due to Christmas parties, and get togethers, we got served in a timely manner.
We live in Las Vegas Nevada, and I can say… Strings is on our top Italian restaurants on the list.
Thank you Strings, for providing an excellent meal, and experience in Yreka, Ca.❤

The food was absolutely amazing! I had the meat lovers calzone, it was so fresh and the dough was perfect. The service was fantastic--we will definitely be back :)

I love thier shrimp scampi. It is served as an appetizer or an entree.
Staff is very friendly. I love their fresh baked bread with oil and vinegarette.

Great place with friendly staff. Great service and nice atmosphere. Awesome food!

I am pleasantly surprised! I am plant-based and usually have to be creative when dining out. On the regular menu, Strings has a number of options and with easy substitutions many more. I had the eggplant scallopini and a glass of house merlot. I can't vouch for the meat based options but back in my carnivore days I would have tried the lasagna baked in a pastry crust!

Nice, quiet and pleasant place. We ordered simple but found soup delicious.

Just moved to the area and visited Strings for the first time a couple days ago, and it certainly won't be the last time! The pan-fried ravioli were absolutely delicious and the service was top notch. Highly recommended for a low-key atmosphere with delicious food!

Our family of 5 really loved it here. It's so tough to find a place that can please all 3 kids, but Strings pulled that off. We all really enjoyed our meals. The service was great and very friendly. I would definitely stop here again on our travels.

Very nice people working there. Have got take out twice. Everyone is very polite and the food is great I got the pasta sienna which was absolutely amazing and packed full of flavor. My girlfriend got the spaghetti and meatballs which was also very good.

Outstanding food! Service was exceptional considering they were short-staffed. Definitely worth the visit!

This place has really good wait staff and amazing pastas and pizza. It's a little pricey bit worth it. Dining in feels comfy and high end, especially for this little redneck town. It's probably the nicest restaurant in Yreka.
