Fresco Italian Cafe on the Canal

Regular prices and it's on the canal downtown. Nice outside seating. I reccomend. Nice place to sit with a date.

Fantastic food and friendly staff. We'll definitely be going back. The indoor seating was a bit cramped but their making due with the space they have. Only major concern was the outdoor seating didn't have a lot of shade.

I ordered a caprese salad sandwich and hubby ordered another sandwich soaked. Also ordered a peach bellini. It took a long time to get our sandwiches. Waitress apologized and said kitchen was "backed up". Food was very good and it was the perfect night to sit outside and watch the gondolas on the canal.

So nice. Not many gluten free options which I need but my salad was yummy and my drink was perfect for an afternoon on the canal. Just the thing for a overstressed NICU mom.

Very good!! The Italian beef sandwiches were wonderful!!

Homemade lemonade & freshly made Italian ice right on the canal

A quaint little cafe with the familiar feel of the neighborhood Italian joints you’d find on the East Coast. The Italian beef sandwich was spot on, and the fresh vegetable chop salad was a unique and refreshing side option, though I wish the portion size was bigger for a paid upgrade. I’m looking forward to coming back when the weather improves to enjoy some drinks alongside the canal.

A bit pricey but good quality food. Cute Italian girl working here. No capp

Great Italian Beef sandwich! And gelato for dessert.

Pretty good local place to eat at. The crumble sausage has some room to improve on. No complaints besides that. Clean place with both indoor and outdoor seating. The cashier was super friendly and polite.

First off, I really liked the spiked lime Italian ice with 1800 tequila... But next time I'll save a few bucks and get the non-spiked version because it wasn't strong at all for the price. Also the chicken parmesan salad with the house dressing was SO bland - hardly any flavor at all both in the dressing and the chicken. It was weird how bland it was. My $18 meal for a small-ish to medium-ish sized salad and drink seemed a bit much. I did like sitting on the patio enjoying the beautiful weather and seeing the canal - so location is a plus for this place. I'd go back - but stay away from the salads!

Absolutely one of my favs. We really enjoyed the food and seating there. Staff were super friendly. It was clean. Just an overall great experience.

While the venue and scenery was above par, the quality of food did not meet those same standards.

I was pleased with the food we got. I was also happy with the prices, for where it was I thought it would have cost a bit more. I got the pizza and I enjoyed that they did not hold back on the amount of meat they put on. The reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because the dough tasted like it came from a Pillsbury Doughboy pack from the grocery store. It was almost fun as it did ad to the homemade feel, it just seemed a little out of place.

Love this little cafe on the canal! Always great food and a great atmosphere with plenty of outdoor seating. Highly recommend; I've never been disappointed. Note: closes in the winter months.
