Such a nice space, pretty crowded for a Monday afternoon. Food was very good, service was attentive. Remembered a birthday and everyone from the hostess to the server wished Mom a happy birthday. Even had a candle in a dessert with server singing Happy Birthday.

Always a great dining experience at Fragole. Highly recommend ordering the Cavolo Nero salad to start: kale, apples, walnuts, cheese dressed with a creamy dressing is dynamite. For pasta: Rigatoni Firenze and Amatriciana, excellent. Just tried Chicken Cutlet Milanese, delicious. Tiramisu for dessert is amazing. Great wine list as well. Ambience, value and service keep me coming back!

I appreciate the wonderful service that the waiter provided to me and the accommodations as well. This restaurant has a wonderful menu that includes all my favorite dishes such as minestrone soup, house salad and my spinach with garlic and mushrooms and onions. The veal Parmesan was so tender and has plenty marinada sauce and cheese. It was so delicious. It was plenty grilled vegetables. Ver tasty
