Amazing food, wonderful wine, great interaction of the staff with customers and such an amazing location exactly like an old traditional local restaurant. You really want to stop here! Only down point: the sparkling water was not really sparkling

Fagotto in Frascati is a gem that truly delivers on tradition! The owner was incredibly attentive, taking time to share the rich history of Fagotto culture and his efforts to preserve it with minimal changes. The Frascati wine was unique and delightful, perfectly complementing the out-of-this-world porchetta! The authentic experience and warm hospitality make this place a must-visit. Highly recommend!

This place was bellissimo! The service, owner, ambiance, and wine were exquisite The set menu was served with a traditional theme of how the locals would bring their own pots and drink from the locally produced wine here. The mixture of cheeses (sheep and buffalo), meats, perfectly prepared bread ... I could go on and on, was perfecto! I highly suggest this place during your visit or stay in Frascati. Thank you to the chef for your warm and kind hospitality

This truly is a gem, originally they served only wine and you could bring your own food and eat there but now they serve rustic, delicious, locally sourced food. A mix of bread, warm pork ham, mortadella, salami and potatoes plus local cheese and wine. Simple,excellent and really fairly priced. Staff is very friendly! Not ideal for vegetarians though.

Different experience. When we went was a set menu beans, mozzarella, ricotta, salami, potatoes, roasted pork and a generous serving of bread. My wife doesn't eat meat and they gave her a truffle lasagna. So glad we found this place. Different than all others we are at.

Fagotto is an absolute gem! We stumbled upon it when looking for a good place to get porchetta on a Sunday. We arrived late as they were starting to close things down but they seated us anyway and delivered an excellent set menu of Roman dishes and local produce. The local wine was good and the food was excellent. We loved chatting with the owner and learning more about the history of his business. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend.
