If you look back over my reviews, there are not a ton of 5-star reviews. On my first, but not last,…read morevisit to Author's there was virtually nothing to complain about! We went to one of their limited dinner services. I had called the day before and reserved a table. When we were quickly seated at a table by the entrance, I admit being suspect of how our visit would go. The hostess asked if the table was alright and pointed out a heater by the table. Not only did it keep us warm, it made our table feel cozy. Despite it being very busy, I'd describe the restaurant as being a great place for a special date. Our waiter for the evening brought great energy. His timing was great and his knowledge of the food served was helpful. Without hesitation he suggested the Napolitana (which was phenomenal). He also made the restaurant less pretentious than I had assumed it would be and it definitely wasn't pretentious). We ordered the empanadas and beet salad as appetizers. Great picks and I'd return just to get the empanadas! As previously stated, I had the Napolitana. My dining partner has the quinoa bowl but added chicken to it. No complaints for either. We finished with two desserts suggested by our waiter. Although truly full from our meal, we polished off the tasty treats. I'm going back, just disappointed I've haven't visited it before now.

I visited this mainly breakfast and brunch place and figured they would be open all day since…read morethey're a full bar, but it turns out they only open late on wednsdays. They're located in an old building along the main street in downtown. For lunch, they seemed to have a short list of items...and not really catering to a red meat eater like me. I picked the chicken pesto sandwich since I normally eat chicken sandwiches for lunch and opted for the house potatoes. Our waitress was very loopy and loud add seemed overly happy about her job. My colleague thinks she was yelling at us whem she spoke, but I believe that is just how some people talk. My chicken sandwich was good...but the chicken breast seemed like a machine formed patty and it was small. I was expecting something a little fresher, like a whole grilled chicken breast for the price. Instead, this seemed like a pre-made patty from a vendor they just heated up in an oven. The house potatoes were simple and pretty good though. They add cheese and herbs and spices to these to amp them up. I can't really speak for the breakfast or cocktail program, but their music was pretty good.

Everyone who works there were very pleasant for the interactions. We got seated on the upper level and had a great view of the water. Overall inside ambiance was very pleasant. Sleek design. With some old style touches as tribute to the area. The food, I will just say one word....Deeeelish!!! Appetizers - captn krunch tenders - bam bam shrimp - Cheese curds For dinner I got the braised short rib It was so goo perfectly cooked fall apart beef over delicious polenta. Everything from start to finish was absolutely delicious Highly recommend!!!

WOW.

We had a private room with pre-set menu that included bread service + soup or salad. Do not skip on the fresh bread with compound butter. I never knew how delicious bacon Parmesan compound butter would be. I want to be a butter snob now and only crave compound butters moving forward. :D Food presentation is beautiful but taste is what wins me over. The tenderloin is magnificent. All of the flavors are in perfect symmetry - the sprouts and mashed potatoes were dynamite. Having broccolini as another vegetable was even better. This is a generously sized dish and easily makes for 2 meals. I can't say enough positive things about my first Fratellos experience and very much look forward to coming back for another taste.

Service was very quick. They have a large variety of food and drinks on the menu. Food wise, they let you mix and match the types of tacos you get, which is great because of a lot of delicious sounding flavors. The margarita flight was delicious and helped my decide on my second drink. Food was good. I tried 3 different tacos and the birria was my favorite. I do recommend trying this place out if you're in the mood for Mexican food. Excellent service and staff as well.

Our waitress was really good and attentive. Our group of 5 ordered mostly everything but a burger. Only 1 person had the burger. I tried the chicken wings since they were advertising several different flavors and I figured they would be decent. 10 pc bone-in wings - I chose the sweet chili and honey habanero dry rub. I ended up liking the dry rub the best, but the wings were not spicy whatsoever even though they had habanero in them supposedly. We also did a cheese curd sampler platter and I did like each of these which came with 2 different dipping sauces.

The service was good; the staff were friendly with some regulars there. However, the food was overpriced for the quality. It wasn't bad, but there was nothing special about it. You can get way better food elsewhere for less money in other places in Appleton. FYI: On Fridays, they have a fish-fry only menu which is different from their regular menu.
