Last Friday my friend Chris and I were walking through the Pearl District looking for a place to have dinner when we came upon Fratelli. The restaurant was full, so we ate in the Bar Due where they also serve the full menu. The restaurant specializes in regional Italian dishes with seasonal local ingredients. We had the chilled corn and avocado soup and the seasonal green salad to start. Both were very good and well portioned. For entrees we tired the ravioli and the risotto. The Cantrell mushrooms that were part of the ravioli were amazing and the risotto had a great pesto sauce. We topped it off with two nice deserts, the chocolate cake and a peach pie. They had a very extensive wine list, but unfortunately it was (in my opinion) overpriced. While the food and service we both very good, I thought the meal was too expensive compared to many of the other great places you can eat in Portland.
