“This Italian restaurant is truly exceptional and consistently goes above and beyond every single time. Whether we’re dining in for a casual dinner or hosting a larger event with their catering, the experience is always outstanding.

The food is absolutely incredible — authentic, flavorful, and made with such care. Every dish tastes homemade and fresh, from the sauces to the desserts. Whenever we’ve had parties catered, our guests always rave about the food and ask where it’s from. It’s become our go-to recommendation without hesitation.

Beyond the amazing food, the service and attention to detail really set them apart. They genuinely care about their customers and it shows. We’re so lucky to have a place like this — highly, highly recommend! 🍝🇮🇹“

“Last week my family and i had dinner at Flair which is one of our favorite restaurants and Hector the owner told us his family bought Fratellis. We said we would come in this week snd try out the new restaurant. We had told Hector the we loved clams casino and he remembered and even though they were not on the menu he brought some to us from Flair. They were excellent. We also had the best chicken dish ever which was called chicken fratellis. It was very obvious that Hector and his family bent over backwards to ensure our experience was amazing and.......it was. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to have a fabulous meal and feel that you are appreciated. Thank again“

“We went last night, SOOOOO GOOOD!!!!! I got a short rib special over pappardelle as an entree - with escarole and beans for an appetizer. My daughter had angel hair pasta and garlic bread with cheese - her fave. We ended with Affogato and rice pudding, and took a cannoli home. I must say, not only was the service phenomenal, our waitress’ was beyond wonderful, so service oriented, and her daughter shares the same name as mine does. From start to finish it was such a fantastic experience and the food was amazing, so much left over - we will be eating the leftovers for a week!! We will definitely be back!“

Lindsay was especially lovely and cheerful, you’d think she was just as excited to be there as we were! We will absolutely be back!“

“This restaurant deserves a resounding ten out of ten, as it masterfully showcases the art of flavor in every dish. Every item on the menu is a testament to culinary excellence; you can rest assured that nothing here will fall short of delightful. The burgers, in particular, are a revelation—rich, juicy, and undeniably savory, they may very well be among the best I've ever tasted. I wholeheartedly recommend that diners indulge in the full array of offerings; the experience promises to be nothing short of extraordinary.“

“Stumbled in randomly and it’s our new favorite! Excellent food, service and vibe!! 🥂“

“Thank you for a great birthday dinner for my daughter! Not only was the food and atmosphere amazing but I love how present the owner is. From seating us, to asking my daughter what her favorite app was and giving it to us on the house. He also noticed we didn’t order a dessert (we were all full and had leftovers) so he asked us if he could give us a dessert so we could sing happy birthday. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Tried Pizzaro’s Pizzeria for the first time. My wife and I shared a large antipasta salad and a large cheese pizza with garlic, half pepperoni and half broccoli. Everything was great. While this is more a takeout place they have large booths and the service was excellent. The salad was awesome and so large we took 1/4 of it home. The pizza was excellent. Thin crust with a delicious sauce. I’m not a fan of the outer crust but this was so good I ate everything. I highly recommend their pizza. We have to go back and try their subs and meals as I witnessed many people getting these and pizza for takeout. I give it five stars. We will be back.“

Our server was excellent, in spite of the customers shw servied! 17 of us alone at our table. Food: Excellent!“
