Az I Eat It....
Fratello's Cafe & Catering - 13560 N. 94th Dr., just south of Thunderbird - in Peoria, Az
Okay, so we've been here before, because Fratello's has great breakfast and lunch menus(7:00am to 3:00pm Mon. thru Fri.) Owner Amy Mangione, coming from Buffalo, NY, in Spring 2010, decided she could no longer go without offering an eastern-style Friday Fish Fry - but who wants a fish fry for breakfast? And lunch-only hardly seems worth it.
Solution? Fratello's will be open on Friday's until 8:00pm. That began today - and WOW! Here's what you get: a more-than generous serving of codfish, rolled in Amy's Special Recipe coating, deep-fried to perfection. My codfish was tender, moist and tasty. The coating was a just-right golden-brown. Let's not stop there - french fries, cole slaw, and homemade marble-rye bread completes the meal.
Aww! Can't have gluten products? Then try the Baked Cod instead. Comes with a side of diced lettuce, tomato, and herb salad; plus a side of peppers, onions, and zucchini - like you would find on an Italian sausage sandwich. MMMMM! And, yeah - I tried them both! Each complete meal for only $11.95.
What, you want it to be all-you-can-eat? Nope! But it will be all-you-can-handle. You may even have to take some home! Still not enough? How about live entertainment from 6:00pm to 8:00pm? This week it was Amy's brother-in-law Bobby Perez with his mellow voice and haunting folk guitar. If that's not enough, try a McDonald's Fish Sandwich - you're too fussy!
