                                                        First time here but it won’t be our last. Everything was homemade and delicious. But the best part was the people and service. It was my husband’s birthday and we brought his 92 year old mother with us. They accommodated every need we had along with treating us like family. We would highly recommend Fraschetta.

                                                        Wonderful meal at Fraschetta. The food is excellent and service attentive. Cost is reasonable and because it’s BYOB, it helps keep the overall cost down. My husband’s Osso Bucco was tender and so flavorful - made with lamb. As was my Rigatoni alla Nona. Their semolina gnocchi appetizer is wonderful and quite different.

                                                        Wonderful, cosy, BYOB restaurant in Bryn Mawr! We’ve been here several times and the pastas never disappoint. The staff always go over and above to make the experience enjoyable. Today our server was Angel - who was incredibly kind and thoughtful. Love coming here for celebrations big and small.

                                                        Everything was delicious! We had Ceasar salad, the rigatoni with eggplant and the squid ink pasta with crab and shrimp. The service was great, love that’s it’s a BYOB… we will be back!

                                                        This is one of our favorite local restaurants. All of their regular menu items are great. This time for appetizers we had the meatballs w/polenta, corn fritters, gnocchi and all were delicious! For main course we had a special, swordfish, not my favorite fish but it was grilled and very good! The ambiance in the restaurant is convivial and there are now showing painting from a local artist. The paintings are beautiful…and for sale!

                                                        Very nice dining experience. Ann is an exceptional server. The experience would be enhanced if the music was softer and more conducive to dining and conversation.
