Another dining option has now opened on Murray St.
Frate Street Food has opened at 70 Murray St., with it opening the same day as “The O” bar. Owned and operated by Rob Nesbitt and Nicole Stach, Frate Street Food has both outdoor and indoor seating options next to Hotel STRY.
“We started off last April on Drouillard Road in Windsor,” Nesbitt explained.
Noting there are internationally-inspired food choices, Nesbitt described Frate as “food truck meets elevated menu.”
“Most of our dishes are inspired by our travels,” he said.
“You can tell where we’ve been,” added Stach.
Much of the menu is inspired by Mexico, though there are selections that feature food from other parts of the globe.
Nesbitt and Stach say they were approached by local real estate agents Kim Wheeler and John D’Alimonte about coming to Amherstburg and were connected with Hotel STRY about opportunities there. They were “very, very busy” when they opened, Nesbitt pointed out, and they are also helping with The O and Teller’s Deli inside the hotel. Nesbitt noted they are the food and beverage managers for the hotel.
People do not have to be guests at the hotel to eat there.
“We serve anyone and anyone,” said Nesbitt.
Frate Street Food has also been busy getting calls for special events such as weddings and corporate functions, he noted.
Nesbitt added they are happy to be in Amherstburg.
“It’s more of a close-knit community. It’s growing fast,” he said. “We’re happy to be part of that.”
Their fall/winter hours are Sunday to Thursday from 12-8 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 12-10 p.m.
