    It was a wonderful experience overall. Service was amazing, I unfortunately do not remember the name of our waitress but she had a lovely long braid, a very bubbly personality, was so attentive, and sweet as pie. The food was delicious. My wife had the short rib pasta and I had the black truffle turbot. My wife was almost brought to tears because the pasta reminded her of food from our wedding from a restaurant that has now closed as the owners retired. And my food was just simply delicious. Overall we had those entrees, bruschetta, and two drinks and (without including tip) the meal was just over $100. The ambiance of the restaurant is romantic and classy - only thing I would say is missing is more linens (and that’s being picky). For example your silverware is in a paper napkin, I would have preferred a cloth in this type or establishment. The noise level isn’t bad- you can hear the kitchen probably from most seats in the main dining area, as it’s a bit open but it’s not bad and honestly you don’t even notice once you get to chatting. But as there were celebrations going on while we were there- they do not have private rooms for that. Your group (of however many) would be placed center stage and everyone can hear you make speeches to the grad or birthday person. We went on Father’s Day and happened to go on a day that a lot of folks must have had college graduation locally so there were a couple celebrations happening - we weren’t phased but I know some who may read this may not be. Overall I would not hesitate to return here, and am excited to do just that :)

    We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Fratello’s. The food, service and atmosphere were all fantastic. There were four of us who each got a different dish and each was delicious. We were fortunate enough to get a table by the window and really enjoyed watching the pelicans, herons, ducks and birds. We will definitely be returning.

    The food was excellent. I absolutely loved the portobello mushroom ravioli, and my wife loved the chocolate cake. Our waiter, Noah, was fantastic. He answered every question we had about all the food and provided excellent attentive service.

    We were greeted well and they acknowledge that it was our anniversary! Bonus points!! Staff was friendly. Food was good but not as good as it’s been previously. It was very loud due to being sat in a big open room that was full of large groups. Service was slow, I believe due to it being so busy. Fratellos is where we had our first date, had our wedding reception and every anniversary in between but last nights experience may alter our future plans.

    Service was outstanding! Our server checked on us frequently and kept us informed on the progress on the preparation of our meal. We did not need to wait very long for our extra delicious lunch.
