I had tagliatelle with fresh smoked local albacore tuna - delicious. For entree we had calamari- proper fresh cooked, not frozen rings like other places. We also had fresh fish bites with garlic aioli. The pizza oven was keeping the place toasty warm on a cold night and coming out were an amazing array of pizzas. A great addition to the local food scene. We will be going back.

The restaurant is a combination of shop, warehouse, bar and a restaurant. The staff is friendly and not fake Italian :-) the atmosphere is fantastic. We had a family dinner there and I have never got so good tiramisu. The menu has enough to choose from and wines are excellent. You can also buy food and stuff to take home. It is busy, relaxed and fun place to dine. Excellent for family reunions and having fun with friends. If you are after good, authentic food, italian soft craziness and just great atmosphere this is a must. It is a good idea to book a table! It gets crowded there.

The pasta was incredible--fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with love. Definitely one of the better Italian meals I've had in a while. That said, the service could use a bit of fine-tuning. The food took quite a long time to come out, and the appetizer never arrived before the main course. There was no heads-up about the delay either, which left us wondering what was going on. Still, once the food hit the table, it was worth the wait. I'd go back again, just maybe with a little extra patience next time.

The premises is simple enough, nothing memorable but the staff were excellent and attentive. We shared a very moreish calamari but I then had a carbonara that was simply delicious. Not like any carbonara I've had before, the creamy sauce base and bacon lardons were divine. I think the pasta was penne but inhaled the lot so fast I didn't stop long enough to check. Waddled back into the evening sunshine. Recommended.

We got the Margherita pizza to share as our starter which we both really liked, my husband ordered the risotto for his main and he loved it! I ordered the tagliatelle al ragu which I thought was good but would probably try something else next time. We both ordered the tiramisu for dessert which I thought was the best tiramisu I've ever had!! Yum! We had excellent customer service and we enjoyed this restaurant very much. I would recommend Fratelli to anyone wanting an evening out of delicious Italian food.

My companion and I came here for early dinner on our way to a show. At 5-30pm we were first, but…read moreonly just. The service was lovely and although the menu offered so many delights, we both opted for the fish of the day. Our drinks came quickly, our table was in the corner of the front section and it was a great place to sit, watch the world got by and chat. Our meals came soon - even though we hadn't said we had a time constraint - we had grilled Terakihi fillet with fennel, olives and a beautiful salad. We also ordered a side salad of Rocket and Parmesan. We didn't need a dessert or coffees. By the time we left (just before 7pm) the place was fairly busy, but sitting where we were, we hadn't realised. The entire experience was very enjoyable. I am so pleased my friend chose this place. Thank you Fratelli - I'll be back.

I assisted a server and provided professional support to tables for the duration of the hour. Afterward, the manager asked for my availability, which I sent that evening, but I have been completely ghosted since. It became clear that this "trial" was less about assessing my years of service experience and more of a "vibe check" based on their specific aesthetic. Using experienced professionals for unpaid labor--even for an hour--is a major red flag. I recommend that industry professionals be cautious, and that ethical diners who care about fair labor practices support businesses that value experience over appearances
