    The service was inconsistent. The front desk receptionist had to clear out dinner plates because our waiter was serving a party of 8. The portions were adequate my branzino special was nothing special.

    It is always a treat to dine here. We love that it is being your own and it is a short drive for us as well. The regular menu is always good but the specials are usually very intersting…i could have eat almost every one! Specials come with a house salad so that is a treat as well. DH took the halibut with a crab meat rice, asparagus and tomatoes. I got the seared scallops with risotto and crispy leeks. Both delicious. We did indulge in dessert, sharing a tartufo. Excellent…

    Friendly greeting and reservation was honored immediately when we arrived. BYOB is a major plus and our wine was opened by our professional and expert waiter. We ordered an appetizer and split a salad which were great. My wife ordered swordfish and asked the waiter if they could change the way it was prepared and we were told they absolutely could accomodate us. I had the porkchop so nothing too fancy. For us, these two dishes would be ruined if overcooked, but both were absolutely perfect. We were not rushed at all while we finished our wine and then ordered a delicious dessert. We were treated by our waiter they way you want to be treated and the food was sublime. All accolades and no complaints. Thank you to the restarant staff for a wonderful evening.

    We really enjoyed our meal at Fresco's Italian Grill. I had the seafood salad which was very tasty. Lots of hustle and noise, but still the atmosphere is pleasant.

    We were promptly seated upon our arrival. The food, as usual was very good and the selection + the specials had something to please everyone. The restaurant was busy and I believe our server was covering too many tables. This would explain the less than usual attentiveness that we have become accustomed to. Overall, I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

    Food was excellent: our server greeted us with a dish of olive oil and crunchy rolls, and I had the baby lamb chops, done to perfection. Dee-lish! One of our friends at the table, who is a terrific chef and knows from sauce, said her marinara sauce was the best she's ever had in a restaurant.
