We've enjoyed previous visits to this restaurant but our recent visit was somewhat disappointing. While the food was delicious, the dining experience felt cold and inhospitable. The waiter seemed grumpy. And there was no mention whatsoever about the reason for the occasion (I indicated this was for a birthday when I made the online reservation). Not the kind of ambience we had hoped for, or experienced during previous meals there. I'd like to go back, but this event left a sour taste on an otherwise great meal. And one more note: the valet service is a joke. I got to give a guy $8 to watch him park my car for me and have him immediately hand back my keys as he wouldn't be there afterwards. I...
Fresco has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years, with improvements made to every aspect of the dining experience—from the ambiance and cozy chair cushions to the table linens, menu, sauces, staff, and wine selection. The service was outstanding; we ordered four different dishes to share, and they arrived at just the right time. We didn't have to pour our own wine, and the water was refilled as soon as we reached for it. Bravo, Fresco! P.S. Don’t miss the roasted artichoke appetizer!
DO NOT waste your time and money by dining at 264 Fresco. You can be easily fooled by the great location, the large outdoor dining area under a tent, and an extensive menu, but you will be greatly disappointed. Also, the menu prices are not equal to the value you receive. The best part of our meal were the salads, and it went downhill after that course. The red sauce on my wife's Lasagna had a slight burnt taste, and the Fettucine Alfredo did not have enough sauce and was almost dry.
I dined here on Saturday night, and unfortunately, the service was terrible and painfully slow. It's disappointing how restaurants expand their outdoor seating areas, yet the kitchen seems unable to handle the increased demand. Our food took nearly an hour to arrive! I definitely won't be returning. The table next to us was experiencing problems as well. Book a table now
It was so incredibly hot in the restaurant. No air conditioner. Our entire party sweated through our meals. Very uncomfortable and it really put a damper on our celebration. With that said, our server was awesome and the food was great. We won’t return unfortunately anytime near the summer/fall months.
We ate at the bar, the bar was not cleaned or wiped down from the people that ate there before us until we were almost finished. The pizza was cold when it arrived. We were disappointed with our experience at the restaurant, the service and food were poor.
Our food was excellent- we enjoyed the lobster raviolis and the swordfish. They have outdoor seating as well, we were in the back room that was a bit noisy but overall we enjoyed our dinner. Our waiter was great too. Would definitely go back.
First time here.. would go back. Drinks were great, apps were great and the meals were good too! Servers were attentive. Book a table now
One of my favorite restaurants! The Brussels sprouts are absolutely amazing!
