service was excellent - smiles the entire time and nice, subtle recommendations. excellent wine recommendation, too. the meal was completely authentic as well. i have lived in Italy (primarily sicily) and have to say that Fragole is much closer to a 'normal' restaurant over there than marco polo or any of the other italian places in the area. the atmosphere is totally without pretension as well. prices were maybe not too cheap, but if youre going out for dinner, what the hell, right?
Grazie Fragole for being three blocks from my house...the lasagna is sublime as is the char-grilled calamari appetizer and the pollo alla milanese. Honestly I have never had a bad meal at Fragole (and I am an Italian girl who knows how to cook Italian food). They have a lovely wine list, the service is charming, the room is very nice and the prices are reasonable. Maybe that last reviewer went on some random off night. I have never heard anyone have anything but great things to say about Fragole. When we have guests in town and don't know where to go, Fragole is always our safe bet.
