The entire experience was wonderful. Knowledgeable staff. Excellent cosmopolitan cocktail. Pacing of the food was also excellent. We had the Tagliarini and Branzino and both were outstanding!

Thank you Teresa and the rest of the staff, for a wonderful dining experience! We came here October 25th, 2024 on a Friday evening. Took my partner here his birthday. Our server made us feel at home and took extra care of our dining options. The food is exquisite! Chef Pablo Estrada gave us a wonder wine pairing recommendation for our meal. Who knew a bottle of rosé would pair very with branzino and bucatini! It was perfect! We can’t wait for our next visit. We love this place!

We REALLY enjoyed our dinner. The smoked heirloom tomato and mozzarella cheese was divine. The tomatoes were perfectly ripe and not the least bit mealy. The smoke was subtle and enhanced the flavors. The scallops were properly seared, not overcooked, allowing their sweetness to shine. We also enjoyed the petrale sole which was expertly prepared and the linguine al limone with prawns & clams was a hit with the entire table. We appreciated the wine list. We enjoyed engaging with our server who further enhanced our evening with her knowledge and friendly care. We'll be back!

“Braised” artichokes served cold, French toast made with no eggs, it was just microwaved chopped bread, medium roast beef sandwich served more raw than rare, polenta was a smooth, sweet corn paste with chunks of corn kernels in it. Our poor waiter tried his best to make decent substitutions but overall the food was so bad I almost felt like we were being punked or pranked. I guess my first red flag was that the place had reservations for every single time slot on a Sunday, prime brunch time. The facility is gorgeous and well thought out. When we went in at 12 noon on a Sunday, the place was practically empty and there was a very strong smell of industrial bleach. We did notice that most of the other parties were like us – with small children. So if you need a place to take your small kids and you’re not going to be picky and you care more about stroller space than anything else, this place fits the bill. I don’t think these guys are gonna last though. It’s such a shame because somebody clearly put in a lot of energy to make the space beautiful and well thought out. I wonder if their chefs quit and they just got desperate and had whoever just come in to make an impromptu, amateur meal, and hope nobody complains.

The food was really good and service was great. I just wish it wasn’t too pricey thus I feel it’s a bit over priced, especially for lunch which was when we were there. We didn’t have the live jazz music and the portion was smaller for lunch. And I was surprised that they are charging 3% extra if we paid by a credit card. I understand it’s common these days but for a restaurant that priced their food quite high to do that is a bit nickel and dime their customers! We went there for our 20th anniversary celebration and we noted it on our reservation but we didn’t get any acknowledgement. 😩A simple writing “happy 20th anniversary” on our desserts plate would be nice!

The dishes at Fattotia E Mare are all well crafted with special attention to fresh ingredients. We enjoyed scallops and tomato soup for appetizers and shared Fettuccine Alfredo, Halibut, and Polenta for our main courses. We enjoyed a bottle of champagne and wine by the glass and finished with Peach Bread Pudding and Chocolate Lava Cake. The polenta resembled creamed corn vs Italian style polenta that I am familiar with but was still very tasty. A great dining experience for a special occasion.

We enjoyed the food. The service was excellent. It was beautifully presented, the drinks stiff just as you would want. The cheese platter was delicious and the pastas full of flavor. My husband’s focaccia with cheeses was good but it basically cheese bread. We wouldn’t order it again. The broccoli with garlic chips was the only disappointment. Too undercooked and unwieldy to eat.

Came to celebrate a birthday, but no one reacted. The food was not very good, we felt it already at night. I can not recommend this place. The evening was ruined.
