The following best fine dining restaurants provide the ambiance for those who want to have a more formal meal or are celebrating some special occasion. Fratello's - 799 Union Ave., Laconia, NH - (603) 528-2020 One of our favorite restaurants to eat at is Fratellos. The ambiance is wonderful and the food is absolutely delicious. Usually, I order the filet mignon and it has always been excellent. One time I decided to try the Chicken Marsala sautéed in garlic with mushrooms. It was absolutely to die for. The chicken just melted in my mouth. The flavors were exquisite. As you can see, I recommend Fratello's as one of the best fine dining restaurants to experience.

They have a variety of specials with fresh ingredients. In the summer, you can enjoy the outside patio.Great food, great wine, great service!
