We have driven by this place countless times, and never stopped...shame on us! It's a pretty small…read moreplace, but comfortable spacing, atmosphere was very good, and staff were all very friendly and attentive. We ordered the calamari and bruschetta for appetizers and we were asked if we wanted the free garlic knots (BIG MISTAKE) The calamari were good especially because my husband and son prefer the rings and the whole plate were rings. My mother had never had them before (we didn't tell her what they were) and she also thoroughly enjoyed them. The bruschetta was ok; it was very different than I'm used to because it had tiny mozzarella balls in it, which were nice, but seriously lacked garlic and the tomatoes were blah. The thing I like about the most were the slices of bread around the bruschetta because they were soft and crunchy in all the right places. Those garlic knots on the other hand are trouble ...the dough was so fresh and had so much flavor, I ate 2 of them and couldn't really eat my entree, but they were incredibly worth every bite! For our entrees I ordered penne alla vodka (I wish the made it with rigatoni. I thought it was ok. It seems too thick and not as good as I've had elsewhere, but maybe I was too full already because my husband thought it was very good. My husband had eggplant Parmesan which was a very nice portion and cooked perfectly. My mother had a cheese calzone which was probably the biggest and nicest cook on one I've ever seen and she really enjoyed it. My son had sausage and peppers and he really like it even though he doesn't generally like red sauce, but the sauce that came with garlic knots and calamari was all the same, and he loved it. The only thing he wasn't thrilled with was the sausage were all sliced. We all expected to have whole links, but they were thinly sliced longways. I wouldn't say I'm in a hurry to go back, but I would again and maybe get one of those calzones for myself or try pizza .

I've driven by this place countless times and when my husband came here for a work event and raved…read moreabout it, I knew it was time to try it. We were here on a Monday night (President's day holiday) and it was crowded. I'm glad I made a reservation through OpenTable. Once seated at a table in the middle of the dining area, I noticed it was a little stuffy. The table can seat four but I think it would be very packed with all the plates. I noticed the plate I had when I sat was dirty so I just switched it with another vacant plate. The server took away occupied silverware and plates. It felt more spacious. Focaccia bread was brought out with sun dried tomatoes dip and it was delicious!! Not tarty at all and I wish there was more of that dip because it was so good. My husband warned me that their portions were dainty so we ordered calamari appetizer (I highly recommend) and caprese salad (also good and fresh). My husband got tomato basil Alfredo fettuccini with chicken and I had Alfredo fettuccini with salmon. The salmon was cooked to perfection. I found it odd that the server asked how I liked it cooked and I elected for well done. It was so tender and buttery just melts in your mouth. The fettuccini was okay. The texture of the noodles were dumpling like maybe it's homemade but still good. I did order broccolini as a side but someone dropped the ball and that's why I had to dock a star. Overall, I think it's a romantic place to bring a date but the servers aren't too warm but still professional. My husband said there's a business event section upstairs and offers privacy. I think his only complaint was that the logistics of the "buffet" appetizers was awkward so a lot of the food went to waste. I think he mentioned more serving ware like plates and serving spoons would have been helpful. I also think the to go bag is very nice. It's like a reusable grocery bag and fairly large. It's a nice touch. I saw a lady bring her dog. I don't remember seeing an outside patio and I have a dog myself and am a dog lover. I'm not sure what that was about (is there a separate area?).

Not the best. The tomato basil fettuccine Alfredo - it was recommended as being "amazing" and the "most popular" dish.... It left a lot to be desired. The noodles were extremely over done with some noodles actually burnt. A lot of noodles were actually stuck together. The noodles were worse than if a college kid boiled store bought noodles and then forgot about them on the stove. The Alfredo sauce wasn't necessarily bad but it needed to be creamier and needed more flavor. I will say there was a lot of blackened chicken on the pasta, but again, needed more flavor. The pepperoni flatbread was ok. Extremely thin. The server told us it had the pepperoni that curls into little cups. That was false. It was regular pepperoni - which is fine!! But the flatbread overall just wasn't great. I know this is an Italian place in a shopping center in Gwinnett, but I was still disappointed.

I stopped in while visiting town. This place used to be a must-go for me. I have eaten here for…read moretwenty years. This visit felt like a different restaurant. The dining room was almost empty on a Saturday afternoon. Two tables were seated. Now I understand why. We walked in and stood there. The staff stayed on their phones. Five minutes passed before anybody even looked up. No greeting. No urgency. Bad start. We ordered lasagna, chicken Alfredo, and ziti. My lasagna arrived refrigerator cold. Not warm. Cold through the center. For the price, I expected care. At minimum, heat the food and serve it properly. Chicken Alfredo lacked flavor and arrived lukewarm. The sauce tasted flat and heavy. The ziti landed in the same category. Warm at best. No punch. No freshness. Service never recovered. No check-ins. No apology for the food temperature. No effort to make the meal right. I used to recommend this place without hesitation. I cannot today. Something changed here and not for the better. Until service and food quality improve, I would spend my money elsewhere.

We got the Fettuccine Alfredo with Blackened Chicken and Angel Hair Pasta with Fra Diavolo Sauce and Sausage. With these orders, we got sides as well: rolls and Greek salad. The rolls were warm and soft and sprinkled with some parmesan cheese on top. I wish it had a garlic butter sauce on it to enhance its flavors. My Fettuccine Alfredo with Blackened Chicken was alright, the sauce needed a bit more salt or cheese as it was really plain and creamy. The blackened chicken was really good and helped make the dish taste better as it was seasoned well. My boyfriend said that his Angel Hair Pasta with Fra Diavolo Sauce and Sausage had a slight kick to it (as it is meant to be a spicy sauce). The overall portions are huge for both noodles and meat. Overall, I think this is a very average Italian restaurant. I think it is sweet that it is family owned, but there a better Italian restaurants in Atlanta.

Truly a piece of culinary excellence…read more For the most part, our table stuck with appetizers, and somehow that alone delivered a full dining experience. Every single dish came out intentional, balanced, and full of flavor -- the kind of food that makes you slow down and appreciate each bite. Some highlights from our visit: Bread Basket -- warm focaccia with EVOO, balsamic, house dipping oil, and whipped ricotta (absolutely dangerous) Crab Stuffed Mushrooms -- rich, delicate, finished with a lemon butter drizzle Braciola -- parmesan breadcrumb filling, red sauce, served with focaccia Beet Carpaccio -- roasted beets, goat cheese, candied walnuts, arugula -- the perfect mix of sweet, earthy, and fresh Fried Tortellini -- cheese-filled with an nduja parmesan sauce that had serious depth Italian Spring Rolls -- pepperoni, sausage, mozzarella, peppers & onions -- unexpectedly incredible Even though we focused on starters, nothing felt small or secondary. Each plate stood on its own and showcased the kitchen's attention to detail and flavor. The drinks were immaculate -- balanced, smooth, and thoughtfully crafted. Yes, the plates looked like they came from Dollar Tree (no judgment, lol), but when the food is this good, that becomes part of the charm instead of a flaw. I'm already looking forward to going back. Fresca Trattoria is one of those places that reminds you why dining out can still be special.

When I tell y'all we still got great service at this late time, I was in disbelief! Our waitress, Andrea, was EXCELLENT!! She was so patient and she never let on that she was irritated by us being there so late! Also, the owner, Federico, came over and gave us a rundown on the specials and a little backstory on the restaurant, which was a nice added touch, considering the time. The food was absolutely great!

As a foodie, I'm always excited to try new restaurants, so we decided to give this place a shot…read more Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. Service: The service was just okay at best. Out of three orders, two were incorrect (both with wrong pasta that we ordered), and I had to remind the server about my cocktails when the entrées were already served. We were also celebrating a little girl's birthday, which made the experience even more disappointing. After two desserts were already brought out, I had to ask the host to bring a candle as I didn't see my server. Eventually a plate with "Happy Birthday" written on it came out, and we were told the server was "working on it," but it felt like an afterthought. The server didn't come out herself or even acknowledge the birthday, which was a letdown for a special moment. Ambience: This place is just too loud to even have a normal conversation. It's not the music that's the issue -- it's the space. The restaurant feels very small and overcrowded, with tables packed too closely together. With that many people in such a tight space, the noise level becomes overwhelming. Because of that, I definitely wouldn't recommend this place for date nights or any occasion where you actually want to talk and enjoy the moment. Food: Overall, the service felt inattentive and the food didn't stand out enough to make up for it. With so many great Italian restaurants out there, this one just didn't leave a reason for us to return.

The restaurant is cozy, welcoming, and very family-friendly. The food is amazing, and the portions are very generous. Each entrée comes with a side salad and garlic rolls. Honestly, the garlic rolls alone are worth coming back for. They are THAT good. So far, we've tried the Spaghetti à la Carbonara, Chicken Parmigiana, Chicken à la Casa, Calamari Pasta, and Blackened Chicken Pasta, and every dish has been delicious. I usually prefer creamy sauces because red sauces can sometimes be too acidic or overpowering, but their red sauce is so well balanced and flavorful. The veggies tasted fresh, and everything came out tasting homemade. We actually celebrated Mother's Day here, and even though they were extremely busy, the service was still excellent and attentive. Parking is easy since it is shared with other businesses, which is always a plus. I honestly have no complaints. My family and I absolutely love this place. This is quickly becoming one of our favorite spots, and we'll definitely be back! ESPAÑOL Este lugar es realmente una joya escondida en Dacula! Mi familia y yo estábamos buscando un lugar diferente para cenar y decidimos probar Antoneta's y estamos muy contentos de haberlo hecho. El restaurante es acogedor y muy familiar. La comida es increíble, y las porciones son muy generosas. Cada plato principal viene con una ensalada y rollos de ajo. Honestamente, vale la pena volver solo por los rollos de ajo. Son muy buenos. Hasta ahora, hemos probado los espaguetis a la carbonara, la pollo a la parmesana, el pollo a la casa, la pasta de calamares y la pasta de pollo blackened, y cada plato ha estado delicioso. Normalmente prefiero las salsas cremosas porque las salsas rojas a veces pueden ser demasiado ácidas o abrumadoras, pero su salsa roja está muy bien equilibrada y sabrosa. Los vegetales siempre están frescos, y todo tiene sabor casero. De hecho, celebramos el Día de la Madre aquí, y aunque estaban extremadamente ocupados, el servicio fue excelente y atento. El estacionamiento es fácil ya que se comparte con otros negocios, lo que siempre es una ventaja. Sinceramente, no tengo ninguna queja. A mi familia y a mí nos encanta este lugar. Este se está convirtiendo rápidamente en uno de nuestros lugares favoritos, y definitivamente volveremos!

Fresh, perfectly balanced, and the kind of appetizer that disappears way too quickly. He ordered the Salmon Francesca and was blown away from the first bite. I had the caprese salad, which was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want from a classic done right. My mom went with the spaghetti carbonara and, as expected, it did not disappoint. Those of us who've been here before already knew what to expect, but watching someone experience it for the first time and love it just confirmed how consistently great this place is. The service really stood out too. The staff was friendly, attentive, and on top of everything. At one point, the table behind us accidentally dropped their pizza on the floor, and the waitress immediately took care of it and had a fresh one made without any hassle. That kind of customer service says a lot. Great food, great service, and a great experience all around. Already looking forward to our next visit.
