Well where do I start from the moment we sat down it was good , our waitress Bia was wonderful friendly and attentive. I asked about thing's on the menu and went for the soup starter leek and potato it was amazing ,my partner had prawn and avocado cocktail top class. The main courses we're great i had the lamb shank cooked to perfection with creamy mash . The salmon was good to my partner said it was delicious the sides we're great and as for the tiramisu it's the best I've ever eaten . Marco the owner was friendly and gave us complimentary shots . I don't eat out because frankly I cook as good as any restaurant but I can honestly say I've found a place that I am happy to spend my money in because the food is worth it

Really good authentic Italian restaraunt! The food was delicious! Service was great! We had 2 starters and 2 mains with 2 cocktails and it was under 60 which was great, the starters and mains are quite large in portion size (see pictures).

I went to Fratelli for the first time this week for my birthday. This is hands down the best Italian food I have ever tasted. The staff were very friendly and I loved the atmosphere in the restaurant. The restaurant was also very busy for a Thursday evening, so that just tells you how great it is. I will definitely be back.
