Let me start off by saying the food here is DELICIOUS!!!!! I highly recommend the carpaccio if you haven't tried it. Or, if you're like me, you can order it every time you go to Fratello's. Everything I've had is so tasty, even the drinks. They have a great Chianti as well. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. But the food....did I mention the food is delicious? 10/10 recommend!!

Came yesterday with my family, it was my first time visiting this restaurant. Overall had a good experience and the food was good for the most part not mind blowing but not bad either! I enjoyed the caprese salad and the bruschetta bread both of those were great and highlights of my meal here for me. They both could have used more olive oil/vinegar but the waiter gave us two dishes of olive oil/vinegar so we were able to add on to it which gave it a nice finishing touch! The caprese was my included salad with my dish. The complimentary bread was good but nothing crazy, sort of crunchy. For my main I got "Risotto con pollo e Salsiccia" because I saw a photo of it on Yelp and it looked really good in the pic. It was a bit watery and didn't have a lot of flavor overall. The water gave us some Parmesan and red pepper flakes so those helped the dish. I wouldn't order it again but was still good enough to finish. My mom really enjoyed the veal Marsala so maybe I just ordered not the stand out dish. My dad and brother liked their dishes too. The Creme brûlée was delicious and they added fresh strawberries on top too! That was probably another part I really enjoyed here! Both waiters were helpful and quickly brought us our dishes as well as coming throughout the meal to refill our water and wine glasses which was wonderful. Our main waiter even opened the door for us when we left which was very kind. The waiters here were lovely and made the experience nice! I'd be down to give it another shot and maybe try other dishes next time, however I think there's better Italian food in the area. But maybe I just picked the wrong main dish, cause the rest of the food the caprese, the bruschetta and Creme brûlée were fantastic! I know a lot of people said to get reservations but I think we still would've been ok without one. Lots of seats and some cute paintings on the wall here too. Lots of parking outside as well.

My husband and I decided to try this restaurant. We wanted Italian food and the reviews and photos looked good. We had a very nice dinner and the service was very attentive. The ambiance is okay, neither upscale nor romantic. It is a great family restaurant. We both started with a glass of wine, bruschetta, and the artichoke hearts. My husband also had a house salad which he enjoyed. Everything was very good. My husband ordered the veal Saltimbocca and I had the veal piccata. Each entree was accompanied by creamy mashed potatoes and a vegetable medley of carrots, zucchini and broccoli. The veal was tender and delicious and vegetables were cooked perfectly. We cleaned our plates. We ended with a piece of the lemon cake and it was fresh, moist, and delicious. We will return.

We used to go to Fratello's at the old location, and frequently did takeout. We're very pleased with the new location (despite still missing Anita's!) and finally made it over there. The interior was bright and uncluttered, with the booths replaced by tables. Some of the murals are still there. We were happy to see the old crew there, and service was very quick and friendly. I still really like their bread and oil/vinegar combo. The Wife had a chicken dish, and I noticed that they had a scampi dish, but not entree, so I asked them about making me a scampi with linguine, which they did. And it was really well done, shrimp perfectly cooked. The lemon cake was as good as always, and the creme brulee was excellent. Nice pour for my montepulciano. We'll be back.
