Del Frate

Via degli Scipioni 118

Del Frate, an historic Prati bottle shop, expanded a few years back and opened a wine-bar annexe. Of an evening, the tables spill over into the enoteca itself, amid tall shelves crammed with bottles. The oven-baked ravioli with salmon and courgette sauce is a good demonstration of the place’s modern approach; main courses might include an escalope of sea bass with pan-fried cicoria. The only off-note is the steep mark-up on wines.

    One of the best finds in Prati - in the vicinity of the Ottavanio Metro Stanza. Del Frate has a delightful inventory of wines (Italy and worldwide), champagnes, malts,etc and has a very nice array of food offerings. Posted on May 09 2007 22:56
