While we can wander from Chestnut all the way down to Lucali & Buttermilk Channel, we always come back to Fragole, for the food, service, and ambience. Always of a high-quality, it's also a comforting place that's both convivial and heart-warming as well. I can't remember a bad meal in any many times I've been there, and feel like it's a place to take someone to just make them understand how lucky I am to have all these restaurants around. Not on the menu, and not always available, the panna cotta is just perfect, and my measure for any other place's...

My parents were in town so I made a reservation for a Saturday night. I was not disappointed. We were seated right away- the wine was excellent. Food was delicious and everyone was satisfied. I'll definitely be going back.

... and that's saying something. I have been to Fragole a dozen times. This is where I take guests from out of town for dinner after they arrive. Fragole is what New York restaurants should be: Delicious, attentive, and reasonably priced. The short rib ragu is unreal and is a great deal. The lasagna is wonderful. The black fettucinni with shrimp is extraordinary. If you are looking for the Olive Garden, this certainly isn't it. If you are looking for a Brooklyn restaurant with some character and lots of wonderful food that you won't find anywhere else, it is worth the wait. Go on Tuesday night for half-priced wine. Trust me.

The ambiance and decor was very pleasant. But that’s where it ended. Our servers looked like we were inconveniencing them. Perhaps they forgot to DVR Gossip Girls and were dying to get back to Chuck Bass's twitching uni-brow and him shooting those "something stinks" looks at his female counterparts. The food was "eh" at best. The pasta was over-cooked and the flavors failed to impress. The wine we ordered was nice so it made it easier to wash the food down. To round out the less-than-stellar evening, we ordered desserts hopping for at least one saving grace. No dice. I had a dessert with ice cream I stopped eating after biting down on a large shard of plastic. I told our disinterested waitress and all she could muster was an unapologetic "oops." My verdict? I stare in absolute stupefaction when I see people waiting to be seated there. There are at least five superior restaurants within a five minute walk. I recommend you exercise your better judgment and legs and take the walk. Fragole is just not worth the time or money.

This is my favorite spot in the neighborhood. Friendly service, good prices and the food is great. The pastas are excellent - my favorites are the eggplant rigatoni and the pasterdelle ragu. Don't get the grilled squid salad, but the other salads are great.

This restaurant is a gem. My boyfriend and I went on a Tuesday night. We sat at the bar and were ushered to a nice table, by the window, within five minutes. Tuesday night is definitely the night to go, as it's 'wine and dine' night, meaning bottles of wine are half price. The spaghetti bolognese is really well done. It was a hearty dish with an authentic sauce so good I had to restrain myelf from licking the bowl. Their homemade bread is wonderful. Crusty on the outside and soft and chewy in the middle. We had an appetizer, a bottle of wine, and two entrees for $50. Where else can you get amazing authentic italian food for that price? Definite great find. Will be going back soon!!!

Everytime, i go with either a friend or friends, we are always very pleased with their atmosphere- music, candles lit-coziness of the room,smiles from the waiters. Service is prompt. As soon as you enter their retaurant, they will ask, where you wish to be seated, by the window or by the back or middle. Service is prompt. Unless, when its packed- that is all the time. If you can make it by 6pm- you are lucky, since their ovens get heated by 5ish. By than, the start of crowd starts to come. We have walked by many a time, there 's always a full house. What they serve and also their Tuesday night special -vino Its excellente. Prices are great for the amount they give on your plate. Cozy, intimate, relaxed atmosphere. Ive been to showers there. They do 100 percent plus, to satisfy. I personally, listen to their music playing, it makes me feel like getting up and dancing. Music goes well with the pranza-meal- same time.
