Fratelli By Jholano's

Just want to start off by saying im not big into pasta that being said here is my review on this restaurant. We started off with the Caesar salad and also ordered the Artichoke to start then followed by Spicy Rigatoni al 400 with shrimp added to the meal and Truffle Ravioli then ended it with A tres Leche dessert. What where my thoughts on the meal? I'll sum it up in one word "Perfection" everything was done so well and then to end it with that amazing dessert well they won me over. Now I have to come back to try the rest of the menu. See you soon 😊.

Absolutely amazing Sunday Pasta … Cooked to perfection! It was quite busy, still a lovely service. Great experience! It’s a BYOB, but food is worth staying sober … Or the liquor store next door.

In my opinion, to start: The service was good. Nothing too out of this world that left me feeling like it was outstanding. We started with the focccia the 2am? In the pantheon. It kind of gave digiornos frozen pizza. The focaccia part was good but the cheese and the ham was a bit too fake and eh tasting. The pasta which was our main, was pretty good. The Sunday pasta was great and it was the highlight of the night. The Zucca ravioli was way too sweet. The one we originally wanted the truffle ravioli was sold out which was unfortunate. We ended with the ceasar salad which I’m not a fan of the way it’s served but it wasn’t bad. The espresso was good too. Overall this was a good place to eat but nothing too crazy, definitely a good weekday meal. Also there is no alcoholic drinks.

I can’t say enough great things about my experience! My server, Sherrie, was absolutely amazing. From the moment she came over to my table, she completely turned my day around. I had been having a bit of a rough one, but her warmth, attentiveness, and genuine kindness created such a welcoming atmosphere that I instantly felt more at ease. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and it truly made all the difference. On top of that, the food was delicious, every bite was fresh and full of flavor. Between the yummy meal and Sherrie’s incredible service, I left feeling so much happier than when I walked in. I’ll definitely be back!

Found out about this place on instagram. Cute hole in the wall. The food was super yummy! Was overwhelming or heavy. Perfect portions of food. The waitress was very nice but didn’t seem to know much about the menu. We asked for a beverage menu, and she said they didn’t have one. Our options were red or white wine. Later in the meal, we noticed the table ordered a soda. We also heard the gentleman working. Explain the menu to the table next to us and ask if they had any questions. This is the only thing that I found semi frustrating, but I will definitely go back!

Went here for a girls dinner & it was such a great spot. The food was ABSOLUTELY delicious. We got apps, entrees & dessert - all of it was *chef’s kiss*. It’s hard to find Italian food in Miami that ACTUALLY tastes good. The ambience is very calm. Great service. Definitely coming back!

I had the best time at Fratelli! The food was incredible, each dish was packed with flavor and cooked just right. Despite how busy it was, we were seated quickly, and to our surprise, we were offered free drinks to make our wait even more enjoyable. Julio and Gus truly made us feel like part of the family with their exceptional customer service. My boyfriend and I were both so impressed, and we’ll definitely be back soon. This place is a gem, and I can’t recommend it enough!

my friend was in town from New York And we were in the mood to have some Italian food. The ambience and aesthetic of this restaurant is 10 out of 10 and the service was top-notch. Our waitress was very attentive and very friendly. She made sure we were take care of every step of our meal. She gave great recommendations, and she did not disappoint. The food was to die for. The meatballs and the lasagna were the most delicious plates that I have ever had. I am not a fan of meatballs, but they know how to make them just right and I will be back for them!!!

I have been wanting to come here for a very long time. It is in Dadeland. My friend made a reservation. The place has lots of families and some dates. It is BYOB. At first they bring you olives complimentary. They were good ! I ordered the spicy rigatoni. It was 3/5 it was missing a burst of flavor. It needed more. The pistachio tres leche dessert was made by the family. It gives off a hidden gem. A nice spot if you want to have Italian food in the area. Great service. Decent prices. Stephanie was helping us. I would come back here again.

Took advantage of their Wednesday night pasta special! They have a few select pastas for $18 but be aware they do not have a liquor license so our waitress suggested we go nearby to a store that sells wine because they have a no uncorking fee. For dinner we started with the Caesar salad, which was delicious and for the entrées we shared the crispy chicken and spicy rigatoni pasta. They have tables inside and outside for dining. The entrée dishes are big enough to share however, I recommend they get some bigger dinner plates in order to accommodate the sharing. Would definitely recommend saving room for dessert and ordering the pistachio Tres leches.

I've been to Jholano's so was excited to try Fratelli. We went on a Friday night and was seated immediately. They do have limited seating so I'd recommend a reservation if they offer them. For starters we had the artichoke. They were so good and had a bit of a kick to them. For my entree I ordered the spicy rigatoni. I really enjoyed the dish. I'm pretty sensitive to spice and it had the perfect amount. I also think the portion size was perfect for a pasta dish. For dessert we ordered the tiramisu. It wasn't out of this world. I would probably skip it next time.

We started with the Seasonal Burrata with caramelized onions, prosciutto, & fig drizzle on grilled toasts. I could eat this for my meal! Then I had the linguine puttanesca with ricotta and added shrimp, so good. First friend had the polenta with scallop, mushrooms and capers. Our other friend had the butternut squash ravioli, cinnamon and cream. He said it was more like having dessert. We then had desserts of tiramisu and pistachio moist cake with moose and chopped pistachios topping. They had espresso and I had sparkling water. Overall it was a wonderful new place to try but the pricing was a little ridiculous. Thankfully it was a treat by a wonderful friend and industry person.

Vibe was cozy yet upscale. Food was really nice. From burrata special to scallops to mezcal chicken!! Service was attentive without being overbearing. Will def come back!

I got the truffle ravioli, and I loved the underlying highlights of the truffle in each bite. I felt like the ravioli itself could have been cooked a little bit better. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure my dining experience was good from start to finish. The interior was modern and nice.

Stopped in for Crème Brûlée but unfortunately they were out. They offered Tiramisu coupled with some Espresso to compensate and it was fairly decent. Didn't look at the menu much, but I plan to go back just because of how nice the owner was! Will update once I do. (4 stars for the no crème brûlée)

Fratelli By Jholano's is a hidden gem with amazing food and an inviting atmosphere. Our server, Deli Daddy, was fantastic--his energy and attention to detail made the dining experience even better. The food was delicious, with perfectly cooked pasta and great wine--highly recommend!

Incredible service, we had a reservation so once we arrived we were seated inside. Our server was so nice, attentive, and helpful in answering our questions about the menu. We shared the "2am At The Pantheon" and it was almost like a flat bread., the hot honey added such a good flavor. I love the sweet and savory combo" we also shared Jholano Loves Fig and I loved it but I also love Brie cheese very much. I got the spicy rigatoni and I really liked my meal. Overall it was so good. I love the atmosphere of the restaurant as well it felt so cozy. I'll be coming back here for sure

LOVED this restaurant! First of all I like visiting restaurants after reading reviews or by word of mouth. We went there because of Mr. Eats 305! He was not wrong! All 4 of us had fresh pasta (Wednesday and Sunday it's $18 for selected pastas). The house-made pastas were tasty, creative, and the portions are generous without being exaggerated. For appetizer we shared the Caesar Salad and it is a must have. If you've never been excited about salad, prepare to be blown away by this one. Expertly crafted, delicious, and beautifully plated. We shared two desserts, our favorite was the pistachio tres leches. By the way, this is a BYOB restaurant and they don't have a corkage fee so next time we'll be bringing our own favorite bottle of wine. Because it's in Downtown Dadeland it's very easy to get to and there's always plenty of parking. I can't wait to visit again!

I understand the service industry is incredibly difficult. However, the staff requires either intense training or bring in an entirely new experienced staff. The food is great, end of story!! If you can, order take out. But this place is a must. 0 Stars - Service 4 Stars - Food

I've been a few times and every time, the food has been amazing. The burrata with mango is DELICIOUS - as is the Sunday pasta and chicken Parmesan. Service is always exceptional. And one of the best parts - you can bring your own wine. I can't wait to return!!

New spot in downtown dadeland, very romantic and delicious-- a must try -- for more food reviews follow me @themiamifoodedit_

I'm so disappointed because I support small local businesses and wanted this place to be good. Unfortunately they just aren't ready. Walked in on a Friday night to a half empty restaurant, no liquor license yet so they encouraged me to go to the liquor store down the block and BYOB. I got 2 beers for $8 and came back to wait. And wait. And wait. Finally got the Caeser salad which was ok. Then we waited and waited over an hour and a half and finally got the flatbread. It was warm when we got it. I've had better at Sir Pizza honestly. Not worth the hype. The meatballs and garlic bread finally came out another 15 minutes later and it was the best part of the meal. But for appetizers we got them last. Confusing. The tiramisu was delicious. Super light and creamy. The bill. Charged me $20 for a cork fee. Why? They encouraged BYOB and I bought beer. Nobody even corked anything and the waitress said it was for bringing alcohol in the restaurant. What? You told me to go to the liquor store lol. They did take the fee off after I asked politely and mentioned the extremely long wait. Then they ran my credit card after I realized I was charged for 2 tiramisu. I ordered 1. So disappointed. Wanted this to replace Abi Maria, but this place was just utter sadness. Not a way to build clientele. I live in the building and would love to go back, but I won't after this.

Delicious! We started with the stracciatella which consisted of arugula, stracciatella, toasted bread, prosciutto and the best olive oil. The flavors were incredible! We followed with the meatballs with mustard over a bed of mushrooms, yum. As our main course, we ordered the specials of the day: spaghetti which was very flavorful, truffle raviolis and pumpkin raviolis. Every dish had its own unique flavor and the ingredients were top quality and fresh. The pasta was cooked to perfection, aldente. This was the best Italian meal I've ever had. The service was also exceptional and the music really set the ambiance. We can't wait to go back.

Came last friday night prime time around 7:30pm place was empty maybe 4 party's total for the time of Service and it was SLOW took well over 45 for the pasta to come out and the food mediocre at best .. I order the Spaghetti Nero Alle Vongole with Added Shrimp.. The pasta was over cooked and dry. What little sauce that was there was flavorless and the shrimp were like rubber.. My wife ordered the spicy rigatoni with added meat balls.. the sauce was overly salty and the meat balls were rock hard and dry. There is no alcohol except for house red wine.. Overall over priced and over influenced hyped..

I had the pleasure of going to Fratelli's for dinner and it was DELICIOUS! I started off with the Caesar salad, which had a hefty portion size, and was incredibly satisfied by the taste of their original Caesar salad dressing. This was followed by garlic bread, which had carefully intertwined pieces of garlic and cheese--to die for! Then came the appetizers of the polpette allá napoletana, which were delicious meatballs smothered in house made marinara and cheese, and the cagna de basa, which is a white flatbread that was devoured! For the main course, I had the lasagna which had a unique taste enhanced by flavors of cinnamon--delicious! And finally, I finished off my meal with tiramisu that is homemade as well and was, quite frankly, the best thing on the menu! (I love sweets.) 10/10, the ambiance was amazing, the food incredible, the service delightful! I will be returning!

I really enjoyed this restaurant. The Food was great the Service is amazing and the ambiance was relaxing. I will definitely be back.

We really enjoyed our meal. We each ordered something different and each entree was delicious. The service was great. The restaurant had great lighting and just a very nice ambiance.

Such amazing food and the service was incredible. The ambiance is very homie and warm. Such a great place to get amazing Italian food.

Super cute quaint neighborhood restaurant . The food was very good and nice ambiance.

I'm not going to come on here and lie. Our server was very friendly. Our food took a while for a Friday night with one chef in the kitchen. The restaurant currently does not serve alcohol however we were encouraged by the staff to walk three hundred and something steps to the liquor store and BYOB. So we did. And then were charged a $20 corkage fee for two cans of beer we purchased from the liquor store. Then were charged for two desserts after only ordering one. Food was mediocre. Sad to say we won't be back.

One of my good friends and I came here for dinner on Thursday night. It's BYOB so we stopped at the Publix that's down the street and brought a bottle of wine. The place was empty but decorated nicely. Our waitress was amazing. Very personable and made us feel welcomed. We shared the Caesar salad, fig flatbread, and pistachio tres leches. Yes, that tres leches is as good as you're thinking. The price was fare and we enjoyed our time there. One major con was when I got home I noticed that my clothes had an overwhelming odor of fried food. It was rough. So maybe if you try it out, sit outside or away from the kitchen.

Everything was delicious. Best Caesar I've ever tasted and their Mushroom Alfredo was too. Service was great.

The food, service and ambiance was amazing! I highly recommend this new little gem! Can't wait to go back with my friends.

Saw a TikTok review and had to drive down to try it myself. Unfortunately the lasagne was not in stock when we arrived and we were unable to try it but everything else was food. Will be coming back soon.

I came to the restaurant it wasn't packed at all. I drove an hour to try their food based off good reviews I've seen. I waited about an hour and half my food still didn't come out. I just had a soda. There was a lack of communication from the server. If you have all day to wait by all means do so but it wasn't worth it. It is definitely not worth it at all.

I am a fan of Jholano's and finally had the time to stop by on Sunday afternoon. Was immediately greeted by the hostess who offered us a table inside or outside. I loved the vibe created inside so we opted to sit in there. Eddie was our server and he walked us through the menu nicely and gave great suggestions. We started with the Cesar salad which was delicious and shareable. Then we tried the palline di patate, I was a fan of the spicy dipping sauce! It isn't a visit if we didn't grab the Jholano sandwich. I opted for the shrimp siciliana and loved it. Very light and the Italian peppers really stood out and brought the flavors to life. We also ordered the meatballs... the garlic bread was SO good! And finally we ended with the perfect ending, the tiramisu was so tasty and light. Would be back!

We have frequented the Jholannos other location near UM and, although prices are steep, have never been disappointed with the quality of food or service. Since their other location in Downtown Dadeland is near our home, we thought we would try a takeout of their signature Jholano Deli sandwich that I would share with my daughter. When we got home and opened it up we were sadly disappointed. It was super soggy and almost all bread. My half barely had two small pieces of meat and very few toppings. I find this completely unacceptable when you are paying $22.46 for ONLY a sandwich. Plus the girl at the counter, who only handed me the bag, was obviously upset when she didn't get a big tip. Will NOT return to this location

The food was incredible! We ordered the stracciatella for appetizers and it was very flavorful all the ingredients tasted fresh and well thought out. The mix between the straciatella cheese, prosciutto, olive oil, and focaccia was delicious. We also ordered a mustard covered polpette which was delectable, it was laid on a bed of mushrooms, pickles, and arugula. For the main course we also ordered zucca ravioli which was a delicious fragrant sweet pasta made of pumpkin, sage, brown butter, cinnamon, whipped ricotta, and pine nuts. As well as the truffle ravioli, and Sunday pasta which were the special of the day and were incredible. The ambiance was also very cozy. The service was also 10/10! We will definitely be going back!

Came here to celebrate my mom's birthday and had a great time! I've gone to Jholano's deli and was ecstatic when I found out they opened a new restaurant . The food was AMAZING! We got the Jholano loves fig, 2am in the pantheon flatbread, the lasagna, the 3am in Rome sandwich, and the tiramisu which was honestly the best one I've ever had (shoutout to the owner's mom). Everything was so good and shareable! Our waitress Khalia was very welcoming and made sure we had a great time! Overall, the ambiance was great and my mom definitely had a memorable night. We will definitely be back!

Pretentious and overpriced. The atmosphere was nice and the wait staff pleasant. Food was very tasty and well prepared. But $40 for branzino with no accompaniments? Make an effort and roast some potatoes and some fresh veggies. Meatballs with nothing else? Not even side of pasta? And if you're vegan the only option was a lonely bowl of pasta with marinara sauce. At least offer to grill some veggies and toss it with olive oil over some pasta. And to top it off if you wanted bread there was a charge. The only bright side was the Caesar salad which was outstanding and large enough to share. Also no warning if you wanted wine you had to bring your own. Although no corkage fee having to run down the street and find a liquor store was not a pleasant way to start off the evening. First time here and last time. That's unfortunate as there is a lack of decent restaurants in the Dadeland area.

We waited two hours for a subpar meal on chipped plates, and extremely poor customer service. A waste of money and time. We will not be coming back again.

Wow! The food was delicious, the plate portions are perfect, especially if you plan to share a few items. The service was great! I would definitely be coming back here. The mushroom pasta and the Sunday pasta were my favorite!

since they've changed their menu, the quality of food has only gotten better. their spicy rigatoni with mescal tastes way better that expected and has a unique twist. we went for lunch, and the service was great. Gus was attentive, knew the menu, and willing to adjust anything that was asked. music wasn't too loud and it was a nice windy day in miami so the vibes were great. i definitely see myself coming back here and of course returning to Jholanos.

Exceptional food and customer service!!! The ambiance was soothing and so inviting. Not a dish anyone in our dining party ordered was anything but exquisite. So impressed. Date night appropriate as well. Found this gem driving by after shopping trip in nearly west elm furniture store and will be back soon!!!

We were seated right away as it was not busy. The waiter was speed talking and we couldn't hear him over the loud music. Then he brings us a black board and leans it by the stools at the bar for us to read in the dark. Never asked us if we wanted some wine or soda. Brought our food and when my husband asked for some Parmesan cheese for his lasagna, which is pretty much a given we were charged for it. Never asked if we liked the food, but did walk over to tell us to order anything else we wanted because the kitchen was closing. Paid our bill never said thanks for coming or have a good night as we walked out and it was just us and another table. No customer service skills and the up charge for the sprinkle of cheese is bs.

Not sure where to start with this review. Let's start by calling out the facts here: the people who own these restaurants are VERY good at creating videos for instagram. Nothing that you order will look like any of the posts on their instagram. Thats for sure. In addition I never heard of an Italian restaurant with not a single Italian employee or chef - but I digress, as I am not a restaurateur. The service was okay, but the entirety of the restaurant was lazy. The food tasted cheap, the decoration in the restaurant was given minimal effort and the prices are straight up crazy. This seems to be a trend with the "jholano" restaurants. They make basic dishes that are nothing special and slap a massive price tag on it. The salad tasted like it was bathed in salt, the bread was dry, the flatbread was burnt and so on. Not to mention that in their reviews online there are multiple photos with alcohol in them except when we asked for a drink menu they informed us that they don't even have a liquor license! I think that this restaurant has A TON of improving to do before we even think about coming back. The owners of these restaurants are committing highway robbery. They create sponsored posts on social media to trick customers to come in and then they disappoint them. (I was one of these customers) A quick scroll through their instagram helped me find the "creator" of this restaurant and he seems to balance his life playing, watch seller, sand which maker, and content creator. Maybe you should read some of these reviews instead of posting food on instagram that you do not even sell. (P.S. we asked about a sandwhich that the OWNER posted on the fratelli instagram and we were informed by our server that "we dont even sell that here")

Reaaaally wanted to love this place as we are huge Jholano deli fans but expected more. Ambiance was super cute and service was great. Food not so much. Caeser was extremely salty and garlic bread came cold. Will give it one more shot hoping we just came on an off day!

Great ambience, to begin with the vibe curated brings the homeyness with the gastronomic experience of (we focus on quality) ! Everything was very tasteful, the service was exceptional! Every bute was just a WOW factor coming from the ingredients used. I cannot wait to become a regular there and see what they got cooking up!!!

The menu is based primarily on sandwiches and flatbreads. There is almost no pasta or other typical Italian food. I hope the menu is enlarged and a good chef is incorporated

Service was good but food was mid at best and overpriced, really wanted to like it but just didn't. All hype

We had to try this restaurant because Jholano's makes the best sandwiches ever at his sandwich shop in Coral Gables. The inside atmosphere at Fratelli was relaxing and the music was great. Service was impeccable from Mickey & Eddie. We highly recommend the cesar salad and the salmon / cream cheese pizza. Will definitely return. Thank you for a nice evening.

Paola was a great server, she really knew the cuisine. The restaurant was a new expanded location the garlic bread and meatballs were fantastic.

This is my new favorite spot! This modern twist to your traditional Italian restaurant is everything and more. I literally have nothing but great things to say about the quality of their food. The polpette alla napoletana were delicious mother watery & savory. If you love lasagna this one has a twist that is definitely worth the try with its unique flavor. An honest 10/10 review from me from the food to the service and the beautiful ambiance they created you need to try it!

Walking in the atmosphere was good, our waiter was super nice and always checked up on us. The food was good but wish they had the full menu as advertised on their website. I recommend the tiramisu very light and filled with flavor

Food was delicious and service was great! I really liked the caesar salad, shrimp skewers, and the homemade tiramisu was insane. We will definitely be back!
