Fratelli’s Ristorante, 2061 Zumbehl Rd, St. Charles, Missouri, is a fine-dining Italian restaurant that ranks among the best in the St. Louis region.

ST. CHARLES, MO (StLouisRestaurantReview) Fratelli’s Ristorante was founded in 1983 by Joe and Tom Alagna. It is a high-ranking Italian restaurant and the best in St. Charles County. It is located in the Dierberg shopping center, known as the Bogey Hills Plaza, with approximately 4,600 square feet of restaurant kitchen and dining space.

Today, Fratelli’s is owned by Tom and Ben Alagna, a father-and-son team that works well together. Ben is a partner in the recently opened Sauci Pasta at 1990 1st Capitol Dr, St Charles, Missouri. Commonly, when Fratelli’s is busy, they recommend that customers call Sauci Pasta for pickup. They use the same recipes.

This recognition level is not a small accomplishment, considering the number of Italian restaurants in the St. Louis region. Some of the best Italian restaurants in the country are located here.

We favor Fratelli’s Ristorante for its authenticity, location, decor, and top-ranking cuisine. They offer excellent authentic Italian cuisine and everything else that comes with operating a restaurant.

They are known for their House Salad Dressing. Customers buy more than 30 gallons for home use each week. Additionally, they offer online ordering but do not offer delivery. Occasionally, they turn off online ordering due to the significant dine-in demand.

I usually eat lunch there in the St. Charles area, and typically, there is a waiting list for seating at lunch on a workday. That is amazing!

The most recent Health Inspection Score was 100%, proudly hung in the bar area next to the kitchen door to the left. Health Inspection Scores are the most important to us as it is the best measure of ownership pride. The second major factor is the online ratings and reviews. We do not offer our opinion because we rely on existing customers’ online reviews and ratings.

We believe this Italian restaurant has mistakenly flown under the radar because it is in St. Charles, MO. However, regardless of where you live in the metro area, it is worth the drive to dine here at least once. The restaurant has a beautiful bar area with approximately 8 to 10 customers, and the cuisine and service are excellent. We will do our best to help inform the public and ensure they know that Fratelli’s exists.
