Wagyu
James C.

Service was very good. Food overall was good. Nothing stood out as spectacular but overall is a nice experience and ambience. Definitely not worth the price but once in a while, you are looking to endulge or celebrate and occasion, It's a good spot. We got the steak carpaccio, fried calamari, zucchini, flowers, clam/mussels and red sauce and the grilled octopus. The zucchini flowers were the star of the show. The rest were all good no complaints, but nothing was yowzers. Entrées, we got stuffed lobster, grilled Franzino and a couple of steaks. Again, if you're celebrating go for it a nice spot in the hotel.

Filet Mignon, Double Mashed Potatoes and Popover
Meghan K.

You can always expect a decent meal at the Fratelli in the Encore Casino. We came to celebrate my birthday and had a delicious meal starting with their bread and dipping oil and the meatballs with homemade ricotta. The bread is good along with the dipping spread it comes with, we just wish the bread was warm. The meatballs and homemade ricotta were delicious, you have to dip your bread in the sauce. For the rest of our meal, we had the ravioli caprese and filet mignon with double mashed potatoes and popover. The ravioli is a classic and can't go wrong ordering it. The steak was cooked to perfection, just melts in your mouth along with the mashed potatoes. They were booked up for a Friday night, I would definitely suggest making a reservation for the weekend. As for the service, we were left waiting for a while before a server noticed us. She did not share any specials with us and seemed to rush us a bit. We had ordered a different dessert, but tiramisu was brought out. Regardless of the mistake it was still delicious!

Famous Espresso Martini
Melinda S.

We have been here a few times. It offers authentic Italian food inside the Encore. Inside is very clean and quiet. The expresso martini is one of the best I have had. They bring bread with olives, roasted garlic and olive oil which is great. The last time we were here I saw a different table order the Parmesan wheel pasta and I really wanted to try it but we went there and had something different. They offer a special called Rush Hour MONDAY - THURSDAY, 4PM - 6PM $49.95 per person. It is a great deal and includes the following. Choice of One of Our Appetizers PASTA SECONDI and. DESSERT. If you are planning a trip to The Boston Encore you should definitely check out Fratelli's!

Had the most amazing meal! Service was spectacular. Had the calamari appetizer but forgot to take a pic..Must try if you've never had it. It had shrimp, scallops and fried onion rings. For dinner I chose the Veal chop, stuffed with prosciutto and fontina cheese. It was to die for!! My husband had the Veal Osso Bucco that he said was delicious!. For desert I had the deconstructed tiramisu and he had the bread pudding..the perfect ending to an incredible evening. Oh and dont forget the Espresso Martini, hands down the best around!. We can't wait to go back!

Lobster
Michael C.

Awesome place the bar was a good size. The restaurant was very nice casual and comfortable. The service was excellent and very friendly helpful and on top of everything. The food was excellent had meatballs for an appetizer along with oysters nice and fresh had the bone in New York sirloin steak which was cooked to perfection the lobster plates were just as good everything was perfect.

Pasta & Meatballs
Marie L.

I had the chance to visit Fratelli while staying at Encore Boston Harbor. Glad I snagged a reservation since it was SO busy - and sadly that resulted in slow service (but it was the holidays so understandable). I started off with the Luna cocktail which gave the vibe of a creamsicle + tequila (a bit too sweet for me). The pink grigio + caesar salad for the appetizer was actually superb, and I do call myself a caesar salad connoisseur. The caesar salad made my top 3 list of salads for 2024!! My entree was solid but didn't stand out to me flavor wise. I got the pasta & meatballs. The meatballs were a bit too dense for my liking, but the sauce was great. Another star of the show was the Famous Espresso Martini which was the perfect liquid dessert. If you are going to Encore, book a reservation here!

Came for the espresso martini and they were good! We had fast service and Fratelli's is a nice Italian restaurant in Encore. Solid ambiance and would come back to try their food.

Pasta on the side

Wonderful dinner at Fratelli. Located in the back of the casino. The meal started with very good bread. We had meatballs for an appetizer which were great, really good sauce. The meals we had were chicken parm, brick chicken, and shrimp scampi (not on the menu as an entree but they were very accommodating). Also got a side of carrots. Everything was delicious. Really nice portion sizes.

Filet mignon
Pamela Q.

Absolutely delicious! Parking Parking lot available under building Service Sat at the bar, served by Billy. Very attentive and sweet, couldn't have asked for better service Location In the casino but still very pretty, you can sit in a quieter location away from the casino floor or people watch right at the window

Half baked lobster
Lei Y.

Celebrating my birthday here 2024 Ordered all kinds of lobsters and king crab meat! Taste good and healthy. Ocean favors best service and fresh food. Also ordered the rock of lamb which is my favorite! My father ordered sea bass,I asked change the sauce to white bean sauce under the sea bass which is the best fish dish in the world!

Oysters
Fantastic H.

We went for a celebration of Love; the atmosphere was nice we reserved one of the rooms because it was16 of us. I ordered the rack of lamb (4 pieces) I can't complain they came out medium well how I asked, they were also very meaty so I cant complain about the price. Can't say anything wrong about the oysters we ordered a total of 48 and each batch was fresh: the calamari on the other hand was super bland and chewy probably wouldn't get this again (side note: there was also shrimp and scallops in this dish which didn't taste as bland. I forgot to ask the others how was there meal.

Located in Encore Casino, Fratelli emits luxurious flair. The dining area is nice, and the staff are friendly professionals at what they do. For food, we ordered two appetizers and one pasta dish. We shared this amongst 3 people, since the food was a bit pricey. Together we paid about $84 without tip, so that comes out to about $35 per person. The taste was good, but wish we ordered some extra veggies. The portions are decently sized, so we were mostly full afterwards. I will come back if I have some points, but too pricey for out-of-pocket! I would give a 3.75 if I could!

The price online was $6.50, but the gentleman at the counter charged me $8.95. When I asked about the discrepancy he said that online price was wrong. I travelled all that way so I paid the price that he gave me. I went to the website after I left to double-check, and I am still able to purchase it online for $6.50, so I don't think he was being honest. There was none of the flour that I was requesting up front, so he went to the back to get it. The bag he gave me is unlabeled, so now I am not even sure if I got the correct product, since I can't trust him. I was so happy to support a local business, but feel very taken advantage of. I can't speak to the quality of the products, they may be very good, but I can tell you that being lied to, does not feel great and does not make me want to come back to this shop.

Walking into Bricco feels like a memory, one that is unfortunately not my own, but one that I'm…read moreappreciative to be welcomed into. It harkens to a bygone era of Italian grocers with such authenticity, today it conveys an almost suspiciously genuine quality. It's as though I'm on the set of a movie as local shoppers briskly enter the shop & point to which hanging salamis and hand-shaped pastas they want to take home. Due to a condition (living in Tennessee), I'm only able to have the chicken Parmesan sandwich here about once a year. It's a sandwich I reminisce about with my family and work into conversations with friends and strangers alike. The bread is fresh and chewy, the sauce bright and acidic, and the chicken lightly breaded, perfectly fried, and tender. You can taste each ingredient in every bite. Every element is perfectly executed in its own right, yet somehow made even better in harmony. Recently while devouring my third of the massive sandwich, a little chicken cutlet tumbled to the ground. I'm talking: the GROUND. Outside. Pavement. When no one was looking, I slyly dipped down, picked it up, and ate it. I'm not necessarily proud of this action, but I'm also not ashamed. If you didn't believe the 5 Second Rule before Bricco, let the chicken Parmesan sandwich convert you. Taste and see!

The bakery is cash only and sells a variety of breads: baguettes, ciabatta, sourdough, & olive bread. In addition to the sfogliatelle, they sell muffins, croissants, and focaccia and muffins. The sfogliatelle was pretty good, the pastry was crispy and flaky and the lemon ricotta filling was very rich and creamy. I would've loved to have a couple loaves of the bread, but there was no way I was going to be able to bring it home as I was already maxed out with my carry ons!

We were surprised to see they also made sandwiches. It's a small store, but the variety of products to take home is really good. Really nice staff. We walked in at the right time, because as we were leaving, a swarm of people walked in. It's very popular. The square sour dough is great! The Italiano is right up there as a must-have sandwich. We ordered two sandwiches exactly how they prepare without substitutions. The name of the second sandwich is escaping me. Another fantastic sandwich. And, cheap for what they give you! We were going to find a restaurant for lunch and We brought the sandwiches back to our hotel to have for dinner later and breakfast the next morning. Yeah, only a couple bites made it to the next morning. Soooooo good! They sell the best balsamic I have ever had. I can't wait to go back next time I'm in Boston. BTW, they gave us a business card, because they ship, too. People have them ship the balsamic all the time.

There was a short line which I didn't expect, but which boded well for the experience. I ordered us a hot latte and an iced coffee as well as a plain pao de queijo and one filled with guava. The coffee was great, but I was blown away by how delicious the pao de queijo was. It's more savory than sweet and the guava filling wasn't overwhelming in the way that, say, a jelly donut can be. The texture is completely addictive. One of these breads and a coffee is a great start to the day.

This is supposedly a niche Brazilian brunch spot. Aside from the signature pão de queijo (cheese…read morebread), it doesn't have a strong regional feature; it offered more like a light/white-style/pretty meal. But enough said, it was delicious!! Traditional pão de queijo: My first time trying it, the texture was so interesting! The outside was hard, crisp, and slightly rough, a bit like chapata; the inside was soft and delicate, but also porous, slightly moist, and very chewy. If I had to find a close relative, it might be mochi (bread). A subtle saltiness established a solid base flavor, the main notes are cheese and wheat, with a hidden hint of black pepper --everything I wanted. It was perfect for sandwiches, just like the ones they offer, though a little too small. Soft & Creamy Scrambled Eggs: I haven't had such good Western-style scrambled eggs in ages... "Soft & creamy" is no exaggeration. One bite is bursting with the aroma of eggs and butter, not greasy at all, with the refreshing scent of basil. The warmth melts the Parmesan cheese perfectly, enhancing the creamy flavor and making the texture even smoother. You can choose your own sauce when ordering this dish, but I felt it wasn't really necessary. Beef Brisket: Relatively less impressive, but still acceptable. It's simply pan-fried, and the lean meat is a bit dry. I recommend slicing it transversely and eating it with pão de quiejo. The moisture in the bread alleviated the texture of the lean meat, and the meat's aroma and subtle smokiness enriched the bread. The above three items constitute the pao de quiejo & egg combo. Bacon can be replaced with beef brisket for an extra $1, a lighter and healthier option. Lemon Honey Chamomile Latte: It turned out, never try something you don't understand on the menu. The chamomile latte tastes exactly like chrysanthemum tea in those Cantonese dim sum with a little milk--bitter and cloying, incredibly bizarre. Lemon, honey, or even sugar? Not a chance.
