We’ve been here about 3 times, food is always next level. They don’t take reservations, had a 45 minute wait. Dog friendly place, they sit you on the patio, the patio has heaters. I ordered the ribeye, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Also, had the tiramisu martini, which is absolutely delicious. Pictures provided for reference. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Also, a highlight when we visit. Go check them out!

Vegan pizza tends to be disappointing, and unfortunately this was no exception. Somehow the crust was burnt but the rest was soggy. Was excited to see they offer vegan menu items but I will not be ordering this again 🙁

Great place for small or large parties. We had 14 people at 12pm on a Saturday and were seated right away. Their service was quick and reactive and food was delicious. I got the spinach ravioli.

Having grown up in Europe, I’ve had ample exposure to quality Italian restaurants. I’ve been hard pressed to find a worthy equivalent here in SoCal, and I’m pleased to say Fratello’s fits that bill. The food was phenomenal. We tried their carbonara, risotto, bruschetta, and the kid’s pizza. Everything gets top marks. The quality, the flavours, and the presentation are exactly what they should be.

Our server was very friendly and gave excellent suggestions. The seating was comfortable. The restrooms were clean. There is a kid’s menu. The outdoor seating is dog-friendly.

I highly recommend coming here if you want a proper authentic Italian dinner!

The food was good, the service was a little slow but everyone was nice, and the live music was great!

In the center circle of downtown central Idyllwild, everything about this place is excellent. Live music. Tasty food made to perfection. Great friendly staff. A great choice to dine when visiting Idyllwild. Dog friendly, service dogs allowed of course. Reasonable pricing and worth it regardless. Check hours of operation. Enjoy!

We were just exploring town for my birthday weekend and stopped to listen to the live music for a minute. The gentleman playing the piano suggested we have a seat which we did. We hadn’t planned on eating but decided to anyways. Let me say this was the best and most relaxing dinner that we’ve ever had. The service was great(Kevin). The food was fantastic. None of this would have happened if it were not for the band Flavor Unlimited suggesting we have a seat and enjoy their music. They were truly a highlight to our evening even playing a Louis Armstrong song after asking me who I liked. I might also add that our small dog was welcome. Certainly cannot wait for another trip up the mountain! (Forgot to mention our small dog was welcome!)

Faratello’s is a slice of Italy in Idyllwild. Located in the heart of town , this restaurant serves the best Italian food I’ve ever tasted on this side of the country! No exaggeration!

We ordered the vegan pizza on homemade dough and paired it with Faratello’s Insalata — what a fantastic combination!

First off, the service was quick and attentive. We were seated right away, and a very polite waiter brought out our drinks and food within 20 minutes.

The dishes were fresh and bursting with flavor.

The pizza was absolutely mouthwatering …

The fluffy dough was perfect — it held up well under the medley of grilled veggies and cheese. It didn’t take much effort to eat; the moment you sank your teeth into it, you could immediately savor the rich vegetarian flavors and spices. The crust was thick and soft, almost sponge-like. It was simply fantastic — I’ve never had such great pizza anywhere before! It came out piping hot and didn’t have time to cool since we scarfed it down right away.

Faratello’s Insalata featured a tangy, flavorful combination of oranges, beets, cheese and arugula. It complemented the pizza beautifully.

Faratello’s offers a wide selection of drinks. We opted for tea, and they brought out a tasteful arrangement of amazing herbal blends

Everything was beautifully presented. From the outdoor music to the cozy covered patio, the atmosphere was heavenly. After a breathtaking hike in Idyllwild, we enjoyed a glorious and uplifting dinner. We’re already looking forward to returning and trying more of the menu.

Please, try Faratello’s — you won’t be disappointed. This restaurant will make you appreciate the simple joys of life: good food, great company, and the beauty of nature.

The food was not bad, it was decent. The live bands was nice with a little bit of saxophone but I couldn’t make out what he was singing. I enjoyed the music.

I really enjoyed this place. The service was great we didn’t have to wait to long to get a seat and the food was pretty good to. We kept dinner pretty simple tonight with pizza and cheese bread and enjoyed the live music. This was my first time in idlewild and this place diffidently helped make it a memorable one. If your ever in the area come by and enjoy some excellent wood fired. Parking was great and they were pet friendly. There was plenty of out door stealing and indoor as well. If I’m ever in the area I will definitely be back!
