Fratelli's Pizza

Fratelli's has to be one of overlooked gems on the West Side. I've been there twice for lunch, and both times the dining room has been nearly empty, and I cannot for the life of me figure out why. The food is seriously amazing. When I think of all the overpriced, boring food I have eaten at other restaurants, I want to cry. Pro tip: if you see something you've never tried before on the menu, GET IT. Fratelli's has a lot of unique, house-developed items and they are worth it. Calabrian sauce? Yum. Fig and goat cheese burger? One of the best things I have ever put in my mouth. Their cream cake is the perfect hybrid of sponge cake and cheesecake. I would love to see this restaurant get the love it deserves before it gets replaced by another Applebee's.

We went for a small group wedding reception so didn't really get to experience the menu, but what was part of the buffet was extremely tasty. I think my favorite thing turned out to be pizza with artichokes, feta, something I don't know that was the star of the slice, and a drizzle of some kind. Anyhow chefs kiss to that. Drink was just okay, I expected more based on the description. All 8n all a decent place that I'd go to again.

Fratelli's is a bit more of a higher end restaurant packing unique flavors. I ordered from the build a pasta menu angel hair Alfredo with mushrooms and they kindly made me a mock tail although their drink menu is full pub. I'm unsure if they offer sodas but my guess is no so more of an adult atmosphere, the mocktail was delicious with fresh cut strawberries and the pasta was a generous portion served with garlic toast. Recommend!
