Fratellos Italian Tavern is an American Italian restaurant located in Park Circle featuring Italian comfort cuisine with a menu driven by local seasonal ingredients and a homestyle feel. The word Fratello in Italian refers to fraternity or brother.

As always, great service, atmosphere and food. Our favorite Italian restaurant! The owner/chef takes the time to stop by your table and inquire about your experience. Old fashion service that I appreciate and love.

Great food, lovely waitress. But we were seated at an odd table, it was long and thin. Squished in. Eyes n the wall and another table. With the noise level the two at the ends couldn’t hear each other. There were only 3 of us and we had reservations.

Felt extremely rushed. Was informed about the 90 minute table limit for our reservation, and 45 minutes into our dinner they continued to rush us, ask to box our food while we were eating, etc. We had till 9, the restaraunt was half empty, and they didn’t close till 10.

We enjoyed a delectable meal with a crisp bottle of wine at Fratello’s to celebrate Valentine’s Day. It’s always a great experience at this fine establishment. We love Fratello’s!

Typically this place is five star rating from us. For nine years, it’s been our Valentine. The service was poor. Our server wore a banner making it known it was her last day. Perhaps that is why she gave such poor service. Took forever to take our drink order. We had to ask for silverware and plates. Our drink was never asked if needed refills. They also didn’t give us the special menu until after we ordered and I commented how odd it was they had no Valentine menu/special. The portion size on appetizers were smaller than usual for the price. Also take cash. The service charge is a bit high.
