Discovering Tre Fratelli: A New Italian Gem in Alpharetta

The Atlanta Grubber community, have you heard about the new kid on the block? @trefratellialpharetta a fresh Italian restaurant in downtown Alpharetta, is making waves as it fills the shoes of the former Butcher & Brew. For those nostalgic about the spot's previous identities, including the brief Academy Bar (did not get that place at all), Tre Fratelli is much better than both.

Mrs. Grubber’s Take
Curious about Mrs. Grubber’s verdict? She gave the Caesar salad a whirl and found it a tad salty but otherwise gave it a thumbs up. But let's be real, that's a regular critique from her—much like my own desire for more protein in my sandwiches. However, the chicken parmesan was a standout for her. While it hasn't dethroned her all-time favorite from Il Giallo, it certainly ranks high on her list, and trust me, she's sampled plenty!

My Culinary Adventure
As for me, the foodie in search of the perfect dish, I was pulled by a recent NextDoor thread about chicken marsala and hence got a craving for such. Chef David Soon boasts that their pasta comes from "one of the top two suppliers in Italy." With such credentials, it was no surprise that the dish was exceptional. If you're on the hunt for top-tier chicken marsala, this is your go-to spot.

Starting my meal with arancini filled with mozzarella and short rib was a true delight. The taste was a memorable highlight, and it's been a while since I've had arancini that good. Note on the pic, oy already two removed from the plate by the time photo was taken,

Is It "Real" Italian?
Now, some might debate whether Tre Fratelli is "authentic" Italian, or more of a Brooklyn or Italian-American fusion. But let's focus on what's important—it’s undeniably delicious!
