Fratello

A bit hard to find but worth the search. I have been here 3 times now and the pizza is amazing. Everything is fresh and the portions are large. I bit crowded as far as table room but clean and inviting. Perfect place for lunch or dinner in the heart of a quaint little town

We hadn’t been here in years after a previously negative experience and wanted to give them a chance. Awful service, cold food and one meal arrived 10 minutes after the others. When we arrived we were the only ones there for about 30 minutes so not sure why the delay. No tables had cutlery or napkins and when we asked for both the waitress seemed a bit bewildered! The food was mediocre at best when it finally arrived.

I would actually make this a 2.5 if I could. First, I LOVE this place but I think that’s why I was so dissapointed on Saturday night. There were 14 of us and they seated us quickly (we had reservations) and we were in their private room area because it was a crowded Saturday evening. The drinks came fairly quickly which was fine and the wine was in ‘real’ portions so that was great. Service was spotty but I chalk that up to how far the waitress has to go, plus up a flight of stairs! Our appetizer orders and entrée orders were put in at the same time and the apps came out they were good, not great. We had fried calamari which was a touch chewy but not greasy which was good. The disappointment came with one, how long it took for the entrees to come out, and second how average they were when they did come. The food here is usually amazing but it was def a miss on Saturday. My veal saltombocca was very good bit others had chicken parm (said it was ‘average’) and my wife and her friend both ordered surf and turf medium rare. The meat came out — one was blood rare, the other well done! At this point we’d been there a while so they just split the rare steak and sent the other back. Sad but hopefully there was an underlying reason for the very average meal quality this past weekend.

I was hungry now I’m not but this is a great spot very nice good food they have all ways treated us great

While the pizza was eatable, this place left a lot to wish for.
We stopped there for pizza for lunch yesterday. When we came in no one approached us to sit us down so we picked the table and sat down ourselves. Then it took the waitress another 5 minutes to come to our table to give us the menus. After we picked our pizza we were told by her we will wait 15 minutes for the meal… And we waited almost 37 minutes before the pizza has arrived.
We chose to try Carbonarra Pizza (with bacon and caramelized onions) but it came so dry that I had to ask for the olive oil so I could put it down on my pizza. It was really dry and too crispy. It was almost hurting my gums while eating. Maybe if the young guy (Chef — pizza master) was paying attention to the pizza not to his iphone music he was listening to with his earphone plugs, he wouldn’t burn it.
But because we were very hungry, we ate 3 slices each and left 2.
Service gets 1 star and the pizza cook gets 1 star today. Total of 2 stars!
We won’t be back any time soon!

Delicious brick oven pizzas! Best bolognese sauce I’ve ever had and I try that everywhere! Fratellos is tops. Plus the great atmosphere and cozy ambience in the bar area and main room. I don’t like sitting on the porch side as much — too loud and drafty there for me. But the food, salads, special martinis — fabulous!

Great meal, super food, nice setting, fair prices, Super service. We had 12 people for a family birthday dinner and Fratello did not disappoint. highly recommend any of the amazing pizzas, delicious crust, cheese and toppings. The best thing about the dinner was the service, Katie was out server, she was knowledgeable, attentive and friendly. This really made the meal a pleasure. highly recommend this place.

Great service and the food was outstanding. Live music made the night one to remember.

This is a unprofessional establishment. Dined here last week and the owner was rude and arrogant. I was not going to post my experience but it is unacceptable since I as well work in the hospitality world.
There were numerous pieces of hair in my food. When I told the waiter the owner came by and said that I planted it in the food. Why would I plant it in the food? I’m a hungry customer and that’s disgusting.

Brick Oven pizza and toppings are excellent. High quality. If you like slightly well done pizza with a crispy crust you will love it. The anti, cheap ingredient, greasy pie. Fried Calamari is very good as is the sauce. Loud at times, the service can be a bit spotty, and they need to clean the tables and floors a bit better but it’s a fun place. Cappuccinos and the drinks are generously poured and outstanding. Try the Coconut Martini. Solid 4 out of 5.

The entertainment was superb and the za was on point. Would definitely come back, no questions asked

I never expected to hear the following words spoken at a pizza restaurant– «WE RAN OUT OF LARGE PIES.»

Great food, service and kid friendly. Priced well and generous portions. Lasagna, egg plant rollatini and of course the pizza were very good. Would go once a week if I lived closer ;-)

I’ve been wanting to try Fratello for a long time and I guess after a nice motorcycle ride this afternoon, today was the day.
Not very crowded when we arrived and our server was right there to greet us. I learned that they offer the lunch menu until 4 PM every day except Sunday. Some great choices on the lunch menu. They also provide you the full menu for even more decisions. I like that the full menu has the wine and beer list on the inside front cover with prices which were reasonable and a good selection.
We ordered the Calamari app with the Fra diablo sauce. I have to say that the Calamari was some of the best I’ve had in this area. You could actually taste the Calamari and it was cooked properly.
I had the Penne Provenciale tossed with sautéed baby spinach and fresh tomatoes. If I only had one word to describe this dish it would have to be outstanding! First of all, it was served hot, the ingredients were all fresh and the sauce was perfect. I really enjoyed it. We also had the Penne Vodka with prosciutto in the tomato cream sauce. There were ample pieces of prosciutto in the sauce which really enhanced the flavor. This dish was also served hot as it should be. The pasta in both dishes prepared correctly to al dente.
OK. So why not five stars or even four? Cleanliness. The floor was kind of messy. It wasn’t busy and I think someone could have been doing some side work. Also, they use the glass on top of the tables. This should be easy to maintain but many of the glass on many of the other tables looked dirty and streaked. There were numerous bread crumbs under our glass along the edge. More attention to detail needed here. If the dining room is clean, no one thinks about the kitchen. But when the dining room is dirty, I myself can’t help but think that the kitchen where my food is being prepared may be just as dirty.
Just from my first visit, you’re putting out good food. Complete the experience by keeping up on the dining room. Looking forward to my next visit.

Great pizza! I’ve had one other dish and it was excellent!
Their Tiramisu is amazing! Still my favorite to this day! I still stop in just for this dessert.
Great place, enthusiastically recommended. Can be a bit pricy though.

If you want a fun summer evening… Fratellos for Grandma’s Pizza. Then Bellvale Dairy for ice cream with a view. Then hit the drive-​in. You’re welcome. p. s. to Fratellos — you could maybe improve the wine selection a tad. Like maybe at least one dry rose and a couple of decent reds?

I love this place. First, they change the décor for the seasons or holiday– a big heart over the hearth greeted us for Valentine’s Day and a large bunnies for Easter — the owner cares.
The menu is varied in price so any size wallet can be accommodated. I love the thin delicious pizza, and on another night, I had chicken parm which was tasty and served in huge portions.
Great family place but good for dates to with a very friendly bar and live music.

Great thin crust pizza. with a delicious sweet sauce, perfect amount of cheese and quality toppings. LOVE their house white zin. and on SATURDAYS they usually have an awesome live guitarist playing classic rock like Zeppelin, Stones etc. Tonight’s was especially talented. Oh– and the ceasar salad is creamy garlicky and perfect with crisp homemade parmesan croutons. Worth getting. Pastas are good. Huge portions… but I highly Reccommend getting the chicken Marsala with a side of linguini with oil and garlic. Never been disappointed.

The pizza was mediocre, toppings nice but crust was disappointing. Hot Antipasto sampler was OK but nothing that memorable. Not a great value, prices seemed high for what was served. Place was packed on Saturday night so business must be great but don’t think I’ll be coming back.

Always consistent and good food!
We have eaten at Fratello’s at least 10 times and for a local Italian eatery with a nice selection you can’t beat it. It is family style and casual so if you are looking for a romantic intimate dinner for 2 go to another place. This is a fun, lively, place with a bar and Joe one of the owners comes around to the tables to see how everything is. Their pizza is the bomb!
