Service was very good, I was in town on business and tried the shrimp risotto and it was delicious, I had some pistachio gelato to finish and that was really good too. I plan on going back to try the pizza before I leave. Really good food and super friendly staff. read more

IL Castello di Frabo - Shrimp Risotto - Italian Near Me - Monterrey, NLE

Outstanding! Mic drop. The shrimp stuffed with cheese for an app was outstanding including the fun presentation and sweet sauce. Didn't have the burrata because I don't care for truffle but it got devoured by the table. Beef carpaccio was also super excellent although not pictured. I split a pizza and salad with a friend and it was great. Pizza was just the right amount of cheese and salt in a fun shape. The apple and pear salad was great. Salmon and ribeye were also cooked perfectly. Then top it off with the best Apple strudel. Warm and melty, cannot say enough good things. Great service in both English and Spanish. Will definitely be back! read more

We were in Monterrey for work, and chose Il Castello for dinner on the recommendation of a coworker. The food was excellent, and the staff were friendly and attentive. It was such a great experience, we came back the next night to try some dishes we didn't get to try the first night. The Salsu (Orilla Rellena) pizza was fabulous! We shared it as an appetizer and loved it. read more

By far one of my favorite restaurants in Monterrey Mexico, best pizza I've ever eaten, the staff is amazing and the pasta dishes are superior. I've had salad, pasta and pizza on my few visits here and the waiter is very very good at recommending dishes as well as wine! I crave for this place when I'm back home in the US. Can't wait to go back!!! The building is beautiful inside and out! read more

I have gone to this restaurant a few times over the years. Last time was just three weeks ago. I had a spicy Italian sausage linguine it was just delicious. So, I was looking forward to ordering the same thing today. Yes excited. To my surprise when ordering the same thing again. It certainly was not the same. the sausage not spicy, the sauce was way different. Pasta was different (but pasta is pasta and that was not a big deal. I could be wrong but when I order the same thing I expected it to be the same. The manager said things change based on the availability of ingredients. I would much rather hear we don't have today instead of serving me what ever they have available. Disappointed!! read more

Nice restaurant with good food. The building is wonderful and not far away from the hotel. read more

Stop !!! Be extremely careful ordering online. I ordered pizza online to be delivered at my hotel. After submitting my credit card information it notified me that it was not accepted. My bank alerted me that the transaction indeed went through. Nothing on the restaurant's side. After back and fourth with them I just reported it to my bank as fraud. read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants in this area. The building is very nice as is the atmosphere and service. For the most part the food is pretty good, but I was disappointed by the pizza last time I was here as the crust wasn't authentic. It was a lot more soggy than crispy. In the past I have had the lobster ravioli which was very good. For dessert, the Tiramisu is very good. read more

High-quality dishes, yet relatively decently priced. The tomato, pesto and self-made mozzarella cheese salad is simplistic, natural and tasty. The thin-sliced octopus carpaccio is delicate, elegant starter while the seared tuna fish is tender and juicy. Worth visiting, near airport of Monterrey. read more

It was okay expected better service, waiter seemed not interested in serving. Food had good portion and had good taste, however didn't have good choices for dessert. Asked for additional bread in the middle of our food it arrived once we ended. Prices were acceptable. Didnt receive additional stars because i felt service was poor and lacked enthusiasm from the server and other members. read more

IL Castello di Frabo - This is an awesome place - Italian Near Me - Monterrey, NLE

First the place looks really cool on the outside. Inside is nice and I was happy to see formal table settings with cloth napkins! Second the service is very good. Some staff do not speak English and some do. Menu is extensive with large variety of pasta, meats, fish and pizza. I ordered wine as far as I could tell they do not offer wine by the glass so I got a bottle and took what was left back to the hotel. Third the pizza was great. Ask for it to be crispy if you prefer a crispier crust. I neglected to take a photo of the wood fired pizza oven which is to the right of the bar in my picture. They were filling up as I left all tables were full in my area and everyone seemed to be enjoying the food. Several appeared to be regulars as staff greeted them warmly I take that as a good indicator. Definitely will return next time through the area. Enjoy!!! read more

Il Castello Di Frabo becomes a prominent landmark near the airport for travelers and locals because the large brick structure sits elevated above the surrounding restaurants. Classy service begins at the door. $25-$30 USD can buy an appetizer, entrée, desert and a soft drink in this regal escape. The Italian menu of satisfactory portions comes well-plated and packed with flavor! read more

The homemade pasta is excellent, prepared to perfect al dente. I've had four different meals here, yet to be disappointed. The fried goat cheese that accompanies this Frabo ensalate is one of the best foods I've tasted, anywhere. read more
