| - We were just driving around trying to find a place for dinner and a few drinks this weekend and stumbled upon Pub Frato... I am so glad we did! Walking in, I immediately liked the cool vibe that the place gave off; it seemed like it could easily be picked up and moved to Tremont and fit in perfectly. There were no tables available right away, but we ordered drinks at the bar and only had to wait about 10 minutes before we were seated, so that was no problem at all!
As an appetizer, we ordered the truffle fries-yum! The garlic aoli stole the show on this dish. My entree was amazing! I had the macaroni and cheese which was made with Gruyere and cheddar cheeses and topped with herb cracker crumbs. It was cheesy, gooey, and perfect! The portion size is HUGE (yay leftovers!), and I was definitely happy with what I ordered.
My boyfriend ordered the flat iron steak, and his plate came out looking gorgeous; the presentation was worthy of any "fancy" restaurant. He was pleasantly surprised since he isn't the biggest fan of "hip place," preferring to go into tried and true favorites. He licked his plate clean... not even a kernel of the corn succotash was left in the red wine reduction swirled around the plate.
There is a huge selection of beers and a fun cocktail list, so this would be a fun place to stop for just a couple of drinks too!
Something else to note that I thought was unique is that they have a "communal table" so that smaller parties can sit together and meet others in the area... kind of a fun idea!
I am very glad we came in to Pub Frato, and I will be returning when I am in the area
