The Dish
Fratelli's newest location may prove to be a neighborhood favorite for pizza and pasta. The gorgonzola salad ($9.99) is a fresh mix of romaine lettuce, red onions, cucumbers sliced thin, olives, chopped tomatoes and gorgonzola cheese served in a house-made bread bowl. We request the house balsamic dressing on the side, which keeps the bowl from getting soggy in transit.

The spaghetti and meatballs ($12.99) consists of well-cooked pasta topped with tangy marinara sauce. The meatballs are large, cooked medium rare and stay hot until we unpack at home. The dinner includes garden salad or soup. We opted for the pasta fagioli, a rich and tasty favorite. We also get garlic rolls.

The 10-inch Bianca Pizza ($8.50) is a nice blend of ricotta, parmesan and mozzarella cheeses over a hearty and well-baked pizza crust.

Everything is well-packaged in foam and/or tightly sealed plastic containers and bags.
