About Fratello Italian

Locals skip the beachfront strip and head straight into Labrador for unpretentious Italian comfort. Pure trattoria energy—plates moving fast, from crisp salsiccia pies with a chili kick to generous bowls of mushroom fettuccine. Floor manager Irma works the room like family while kitchen tickets fly. Tables fill even on a Monday night, parking takes patience, and five-dollar corkage for BYO wine keeps dinner delightfully casual.

  • Crisp-Crust Pizzas: Crisp, thin bases loaded with toppings like spicy salsiccia and Roman-style potato with pancetta.
  • Generous Pastas & Mains: Generous bowls of fettuccine funghi, tender garlic prawns, and rich, pillowy gnocchi.
  • Monday Nights & BYO Wine: A lively neighborhood room serving dinner on Mondays, backed by friendly five-dollar BYO wine corkage.

  • Crispy Artisan Pizzas and Rich Comfort Classics

    Crisp-bottomed crusts baked to perfection feature balanced toppings and just the right level of heat, paired with fast-moving antipasti like tender flash-fried calamari.

    The sausage pizza had the perfect crispy base and just the right amount of heat — a little bit spicy but insanely good.

  • High-Energy Monday Night Dining

    you know a local place is going to be good when they are packed on a Monday in winter!

Before you head over

Practical dining tips on parking, table reservations, and corkage to help you get the most out of your visit. Check the website to browse the menu and plan your dinner.

  • Arrive Early to Navigate Parking

    Street and area parking can be tough to secure during busy evening rushes, so plan to arrive with extra time to park comfortably before your reservation.

  • Book Ahead and Consider Patio Seating

    The bustling dining room gets packed quickly and can be quite noisy; making a reservation is strongly advised, and outdoor seating offers a cooler, quieter alternative.

  • Take Advantage of BYO Wine

    Diners can bring their own preferred bottles of wine to accompany dinner for a modest corkage fee of $5 per person.
