Great Place To Hang Out & Eat

by GucciGirl

Great Place if youwant to have a conversation with a friend or tow or to hang out with a group of friends. Food is great..You'd never think they would have such a great Brischetta or Grilled Calamari. The owner Matt is awesome as well...he makes you feel like your at home and that you've known him for years. I recommend coming out when the weather warms up and you can hang outside in the back.

Pros: Great Hidden Place

great food!!!

by dfundar

If you like good food, you will like this restaurant! Their Steak Au Poive sandwich is excellent and their Bruschetta is to die for, as well as their breadbasket! Their pastas are also good -- the Pasta Baronessa is excellent-- prociutto, peas and a great cream sauce -- and so is the meat ravioli with three cheese sauce. We've brought other people in for food and so far they have all enjoyed it and wanted to go again. And the outdoor area is very cozy, although closed now for the season. But the food is still a reason to go!

Pros: pasta, steak au poive, ceasar salad

Cons: hamburgers

Overall great experience!

by jmstiers

I'm a frequent customer of Cafe Fresco and was so surprised to read a bad review. This place has great, friendly service and wonderful food to match. The Chicken Pesto sandwich is the best this city has to offer. The restaurant has such a cozy feel while the wine garden is absolutely gorgeous. I'd recommend this place for any occassion.

Pros: Good Parking, Friendly Staff, Excellent Food

Great outside garden with wild grape plants. Always a pleasure when you can pay with coupons. Food is ***** for a neighborhood restaurant!

Nice garden

by foodwench

The garden out back is nice and cozy in the summer, but I wouldn't recommend any of the food. The staff is pleasant enough, but mainly it is just a local place for a beer outside.
