Frescos is tucked away in Wexford with a beautiful outdoor bar and dining area. Whether you're a fan of seafood, meat, or vegetarian fare, there is something to please every palate. The cocktails were ok. Mine slightly lacked in flavor, but the watermelon margaritas were excellent. We enjoyed our entrées while listening to live music. The outdoor seating is very nice for the summer months, and there is indoor dining as well. As well as a full event center that is connected to the restaurants. Our waitress was very nice, but did leave us waiting for service a few times. The women at the hostess stand were very accommodating and happy to answer questions. read more

Service was terrible. Drinks were mediocre at best and $12 a piece, clientele was not professional or courteous nor was the service. Will never be back. Definitely has been. read more

We recently held a retirement party in the Sienna room. From early on, they were very easy to work with in terms of food, making sure needs were addressed, decorations, etc. The room and restaurant is very nicely decorated, the bar tender friendly and service was great. Our guests (60!) kept remarking about the food and how nice everything was. Although we were inside, the outside dining area looked amazing as well! I highly recommend checking them out! read more

So happened across this lovely place coming to see a friends band called Well Strung play the the patio. We sat on the patio which was beautiful and the wait staff was very attentive and friendly. We got water served to us right away with a carafe to refill our drinks when needed The menu had a nice variety and they even had a little featured menu as well. I ordered the house made sangria, which was delicious but could of used more of a kick to it. Then I ordered the Mahi Tacos . They were amazing! They were topped avocados and a wonderful mango pineapple salsa. Only thing about the dish I didn't like is the fish was over cooked and abbot dry. If it was cooked better the whole experience would of went up a level. Now my boyfriend ordered the seafood bisque which I tasted. That was delicious I really enjoyed the place can't wait to come back and try other things off the menu. read more

My husband and I recently celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary at Frescos on June 10, 2022. I coordinated everything with Jackie who was extremely helpful and super nice. She was able to accommodate the few changes I wanted. The space in the Sienna Room was perfect for our 35 guests. But the star of the evening was the absolutely delicious food which all of my guests raved about. The servers Dave, Jacque and Val Jean were so professional and attentive. My highest accolades to the entire Frescos team for a job well done. They exceeded my expectations!!! Sandy S. read more

They really do a great job with their Sunday buffet. Starts at 10 AM which is earlier than a lot of them. Each dish is well-prepared, for example, the chicken has not just the regular mushrooms that you would expect in the chicken dish but also a lot of the fancy mushrooms make this dish stand out. The bacon is crispy, breakfast foods are good and lots and lots of desserts. One of the best parts of the meal was the tilapia. It had a sweet and spicy sauce it really was great. Mashed potatoes tasted homemade and there were surprises on all different parts of the buffet. It is worth mentioning the whole buffet including breakfast, lunch and dessert items was only 14.95. Everyone here is friendly from the hostess to the waitress to the chef. Very nice Sunday meal. read more

We ordered take out while during the "stay at home" order by the governor. I am giving it a 4 star more based on service than the food. When I called, I spoke to Dana who was very pleasant to talk to and she was helpful when I could not remember the list of sides. They offered meals for 2 or 4 people - combinations such as soup and salad, soup/salad and pasta, or soup/salad, entree and a side. They were all reasonably priced. I decided to order something I would not typically make at home. When I arrived for curbside pick-up, I was quickly greeted, even though I was 15 minutes early. Dana brought out my check and then returned with the receipt and the food which was nicely packaged. We started with the citrus and red pepper salad where the dressing was the star of the show. The salad itself was just romaine, red pepper slices, orange slices, and a few slivered almonds - nothing overly special. In addition, there were 4 small pieces of warm bread with a few pads of butter that had a nice crunchy outside, with a fluffy airy interior. Then, we had the vegetable medley which included summer squash, zucchini, tomatoes, and onions. They were a bit overdone and laying in butter but pretty tasty nonetheless. Finally, our entree was two pieces of baked, breaded tilapia covered with a lemon butter. This was actually the star of the show! I do not typically like fish but I wanted something different - It actually was good! It was heavy on the lemon which really helped cut any fishy taste there may have otherwise been. It made me want to try more less "fishy" fish in the future! From a texture standpoint, I could only eat a few bites at a time before munching on something else (due to the texture of fish itself) but the flavors were spot on. Portions were just filling enough for the two of us that we did not feel like we needed to munch on snacks later on in the evening. Overall, I was very pleased with the service and the food was solid. It may be a place we will try again as long as they remain open for takeout during this difficult time. read more

My wife and I stopped here for Valentine's Day and loved it so much that we decided to have our rehearsal dinner for our wedding here. Even during the pandemic, the restaurant event managers worked with me to ensure that we were accommodated throughout the process and were informed of all changes from the state. We were able to hold the event in a safe manner, thanks to the staff and the event went off without any issues. Our food was absolutely delicious and the service was wonderful. My wife and I love going to this venue and would recommend that if you like ambience with some good food, to stop by and try this place! read more

I have eaten here before and the food and service were good. Most recently on 8/4/23 I met friends for dinner at Frescos. Lets start with $18.50 for a glass of wine, not top shelf. I asked our server about the Salmon and crab cakes. She highly recommended the crab cake dinner, saying they are made in house with little filler. What I got was 2 crab balls not crab cakes, more of an appetizer portion loaded with filler and very little crab. I mentioned this to the server , she said I don't want to say anything just yet as the kitchen is busy. She did come back after I paid and said she shared my comments and the response was if I wanted a bigger portion with more crab I need to pay more than the $28.50. I asked to speak with the person who made that comment, they never came out. They are open 2 days a week , with this kind of pricing and attitude next it will be out of business. WAKE UP TREAT YOUR CUSTOMERS THE RIGHT WAY! I did call the restauant and never got a response, that speaks volumes. read more

Lovely outdoor dining spot but the hostess was obviously having a bad day....not welcoming at all and very rude when I asked if we could switch our table. Needless to say, she wouldn't accommodate us. Food and service ok but we won't be back. read more

Four of us met at the outside patio for dinner and entertainment. The waitress was knowledgeable about the menu and answered our questions about particular wines. We ordered our meals and drinks. The drinks and food arrived quickly; that's good, but our waitress kept disappearing for 10-20 min; we ordered 2nd round of drinks; we never got them. The food was not good, and my bun was moldy. We had to track down our waitress and she took the moldy food and asked if I wanted it replaced. My answer was no; but would enjoy another drink, she forgot. She brought our check without us requesting it. The bill still had the moldy food as a charge; she forgot. She tried very hard, not enough servers? You need a new chef. It's a shame. The inside is decorated nicely and comfortable looking. Hope they get it together soon. read more

We have been here several times. The food is always great. Very fresh and delicious dishes. I only gave four stars for the service is slow. There never seems to be enough servers for the patio. Our server was doing double duty as the bar tender and the patio was packed. read more

I stopped by here last night with my fiance for dinner at around 7 PM. Honestly I had never heard of Fresco's before last night and only stumbled upon it while looking through the 2014 Entertainment book but boy am I glad that I did! It's location is probably part of its problem as even though I knew where it should have been (a little off of 19 in the Wexford Flats next to the Chadwick), I still had a little bit of a tough time finding it . Whenever we finally arrived there were a lot of cars in the parking lot with no other businesses nearby so you can imagine my surprise whenever we walked into a completely empty restaurant. I am not talking just of customers but there was no hostess, waiter or bartender either for the first 2 minutes that we were standing there. I believe that there was a private party going on behind some closed doors which would have made sense of the cars. Eventually our soon to be waiter came out and got the hostess for us who sat us in a booth in a warmer section of the restaurant. The inside of this restaurant is actually pretty nice looking with hardwood floors, cool lighting and some playful decorations. They also had an outdoor seating area which looked like it could be amazing in the summer although it was not nearly as inviting covered in a couple inches of snow. My fiance let me know that she saw that they have live music sometimes and I imagine that if that is true combined with the outdoor seating then this place would be amazing. For our dinners we decided to start of the evening by splitting the Garlic Parmesan fries that came with cracked pepper and basil aioli. Before our fries came out we were given some some bread, a nice rustic loaf, as well as some olive oil dipping sauce that had some spices and sun dried tomatoes in it. It was all pretty good and I got that first bite taste of olive oil which I often associate with better oils. Whenever the fries came out I have to admit that I wasn't too excited by the looks of them as they were glistening a bit, almost like they were too greasy. However the first taste immediately put that thought to rest as the fries were somewhat crispy and when combined with the browned garlic pieces and strings of melted Parmesan, they were awesome. The aoili for them was also pretty good although it was not what I expected. The basil for it ended up being some bigger bits of basil leaf and while it was nicely mixed it, I would have thought that it would had been better integrated. After the appetizer I was now eagerly looking forward to my dinner entree which was the braised beef pot roast with white cheddar mac 'n cheese and caramelized brussel sprouts. It was also supposed to come with a red wine tomato demi but since red wine gives me migraines, I opted out of that. After hearing my reasoning the waiter asked if I would like some of the Hunter sauce that is normally served with the meatloaf on the side and I quickly agreed to it. I should probably note here that the waiter was excellent all evening for us. He was patient with us without being pushy and seemed to be very accommodating. My dinner ended up being excellent. The pot roast was super tender as well as being moist which I was impressed with seeing how it came out dry without its usual sauce. The hunters sauce was also nice and at first taste I thought the front tasted a little like ketchup but then at the end there was a distinct steak sauce flavor. My brussel sprouts were also really good as they were halved and then caramelized as promised with a nice little flavoring or butter although not too much to overpower the flavor of the sprout. Finally the Mac N Cheese was good although it may have been my least favorite part of my plate (not that it was bad by any means) which if you know me says a lot about the rest of my food. My finance had the blackened swordfish for dinner and let me know that it was perfectly cooked. She also got a small little arugula salad on the plate which I thought was great since it had pickled onions in it. The bottom line for me is that I will definitely be back here again in the future, hopefully soon! It is not often that I love everything that I had for my meal but Fresco's did that for me last night. Now if I can only wait until its a bit warmer so that I can try out some of their outdoor seating. read more

First of all they don't have a happy hour and they are very expensive at least two or three dollars more for every drink. The appetizers were good. The place was notified that there was a large group coming in tonight and they had only one bartender for probably 50+ people around the bar. They needed at least one more bartender, it was very frustrating to try to get service and because they had prior notice, it's very unfair to that bartender tonight. read more

I went here with my now fiance for their Sunday brunch special which runs from 10:30-2:00 PM. It sits back off of route 19 next to Chadwick and can be a little tricky to find. Walking in you are met with a some beautiful classy decorations that give it a very modern feel. I felt a little out of place wearing jeans as a majority of people there were not wearing them. We were seated quickly and got to dig into the buffet. They had a very diverse buffet set up. Initially on the one side you had your traditional breakfast items: scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, french toast, orange juice, and cranberry juice. Then as you moved around you were introduced to a Greek salad, a very interesting combination of feta cheese and watermelon, and then you got into the lunch/dinners. They had pork chops with a tomato dressing on top, some type of lamb and vegetables, a Greek chicken combination, and some absolutely fantastic breaded cod! I also tried some sides of red potatoes and penne pasta. To top off the meal, there was dessert of which I had the chocolate and vanilla cheesecake (really terrific). What a great selection for a Sunday brunch buffet. You feel like you really get your money's worth in food when you go here. The waitress was a little distracted at times and didn't come that often to collect plates or refill waters, but other than that it was a fantastic choice! I'm interested in trying this place out for dinner next time. read more

Fresco's is a surprising little place. Although I don't think I'd dine here if I had to sit inside, their outdoor patio is great. You can't tell you are nestled right off the road from a super busy suburban shopping area. The patio is also all covered, which means even if the weather is iffy, you can still enjoy the outside. Our waitress was good and the menu had a good variety where you could find something for everyone. They also had some live music (on a friday evening). I got the tacos and really enjoyed them. We also got a chorizo cheese dip as an app and that was also good. Great place to enjoy a summer evening read more

I completely understand Covid has put small businesses (especially restaurants) in a bad place. I am also a small business owner, I empathize. Let me just say that I ordered $15 grilled mahi tacos and the tortillas were filled with tortillas rolled up to add bulk then drenched in dressing to mask what they were. Yep, not one piece of fish in the entire dish these were tortilla filled tortillas. If you're going to be open, why not offer a limited menu with a few awesome dishes instead of lying to the customers who are trying to support your business? Their Covid protocol was good. read more

I was disappointed big time. A club I belong to attends a yearly celebration around February for our banquet. So i received a 20 dollar off coupon for the restaurant We decided to go Wednesday 6/29/17 6:00 pm. There wasn't one person in the place. We sat for along time just to order appetizers. That was the only part of our meal that was good. The ribs were tuff as nails and the burgers over done. The fries under cooked, and the odd thing is, we were all alone with no server for very long periods of time. Like it took 30 minutes to get food, The server was poor at best. No wonder the place was empty..... I expected alot more from this establishment. I am sad for them. read more

We have been to Frescos before and never had much of a problem however our last visit was interesting. It seems there are management issues! I feel sorry for the waitstaff! Our service was great & server was very sweet & accommodating however things happened that were out of her control. We were going on a Friday specifically for the entertainment on the deck. It was approximately 5:30ish and not many tables were taken yet. We were meeting friends that were on there way & the hostess would not seat us until they arrived! When our friends arrived (5 min later) we we seated at a 4 top. We looked around & there was a 4 top with only 2 people seated! Other annoying things that should not have happened: 1 - out of Guinness beer (who is in charge of ordering?) 2- bug in the bottom of my drink! 3- would not make a 'double' drink (Requested because drinks are weak!) 4-they ran out of Southern Comfort (again-who is in charge of ordering!) Only gave them a 2 star cause the service & food & entertainment was good! We probably won't be going back anytime soon! read more

We reserved a table for 6 outside through Yelp. We arrived and checked in with the hostess and she had not received our request for reservation. The hostess was rude and had no other accommodations for us. We left... read more

Frescos advertises a Thanksgiving ready to go catered menu that customers have until Monday, Nov 20th 2017 to order. Well, I called Sunday Nov. 19th to place my order for $175 for 8-12 people. I was informed it was SOLD OUT even though the website still advertises it as available and there is no mention of a limited quantity. I asked the woman on the phone if there was anyway an order could be placed since it is still BOLDY advertised that orders were accepted until Nov 20th and was told no. I have ordered this before and was quite pleased....well obviously I will NEVER order from Frescos or eat there again. I am left in quite a quandary with family coming for Thanksgiving Thursday. Thanks Frescos. read more

We have been going to Frescos for about two years, we don't get out often so I need to be gaurenteed that we will enjoy it. They have never let us down. The chef is AMAZING with his seasonal specials, especially the rotating side with the Prime Rib. The patio have live music in the summer on Friday and Saturday, and they have always been entertaining. While it is an adult menu, my teens have always found food they enjoy too! read more

Very disappointed in Fresco's. My wife and I made a reservation here and were excited to try it out, as we had heard positive things. When we arrived, we were starving and were told there would be a 45 minute wait to be seated and there was a hold on the kitchen. Seriously??? We made a reservation! And they didn't even have the courtesy to call and notify us! What a joke. Ruined date night and we were excited to see the band that was playing. It may have been slightly better had the person (manager? Hostess?) not been argumentative and told us it wasn't their fault and completely disregarded us making a reservation. Overall, a HUGE disappointment and we won't be coming back. read more

Just tried their curbside pick up. Amazing meals for two or four, for the cost of fast food!! Just need a break from cooking, and feels and taste like fine dining. Friendly, helpful staff delivered the meals curbside. We will definitely frequent this restaurant. Also great to support small businesses. read more

Awful service and the food is even worse! Don't waste your money or time... Trust me!

Lost out on several drinks and appetizers because of their policy that they do not seat anyone until entire party is there. Quite a bit of chaos at the entry as all groups were waiting for their late straggler friends. No one else does this. Will not attempt this fiasco again. The patio is beautiful but the food and service not deserving of my time. read more

It took over 1 hour to get food. The bread they stated was Sour Dough, but it looked like regular soft crust bread from a store. The dipping sauce for the bread was not mixed up and was way to strong. The dinner portion was NOT worth $19.00. There was NO SERVICE by anyone, you had to always wait for the waiter to show back up. I WOULD NOT tell any of my friends to go here, It SUCKED !!!!! read more

It was a little rough finding this place, as another reviewer has stated. Across Rt19 from Whole Foods and off the highway a bit, but totally worth trying to find it. My wife and I only went because we had a Groupon, but we were both very glad we went. Food was great, service was excellent, environment was wonderful. I didn't really see it as much of a "family" type of restaurant, and there were no small children there when we were there. I am wondering if Julie K. down there actually went to the restaurant or if she is just looking for something to bitch about. read more

My wife and I, and my sister and her husband, came to Frescos for Valentine's Day, 2015, and had a wonderful meal! Our server, Sarah was thorough, friendly, and very attentive to our needs. She was great! Our meal was delicious, and the dessert was great! Very reasonable cost, and excellent variety on the menu. Nice atmosphere, with nice music playing in the background. Highly recommended for a very nice evening out with your loved ones! Great job Frescos!!!! read more

We waited 45 minutes for our waiter to even take our order. The place had 2 other tables of customers and about 9 waitresses so they have no excuse for the wait. We had been there for 90 minutes when we finally got served and everything was bland. Steak was over cooked and the waitress didn't come back to check on us the entire meal. Only visited because of an entertainment book coupon and will NOT be returning!!! read more

We really enjoyed our Thanksgiving dinner at Frescos. I really want to thank all the staff for making it so memorable! Thank you for being there on this holiday and working so hard. Everyone was Friendly and very efficient. An overall wonderful event. The decor was welcoming, the food was very good, just the right amount of options to choose from. Well except for the dessert table, waaayyyy too many as I couldn't decide or eat one more bite but I managed just two the pumpkin roll and chocolate cake. Yummm! Everything was better than expected as we have tried other buffets, we look forward to the Easter event, and we are definitely coming again next year! read more

Don't waste your time or money. If you want to eat inside this restaurant this summer (not outside, or in the banquet rooms of the Chadwick) only go there if you are not hungry and have a lot of time to waste. I made a reservation for two for inside seating last night at 7pm. We planned to listen to the band playing outside on the deck, after we had a nice dinner inside--in the air conditioning. The management had overbooked the place and did not have enough wait staff to handle the workload, since they also staff events at the Chadwick. There were four tables set up inside the restaurant with only 12 people to be served. All of us waited a very long time to be served and 4 of the patrons received service before the rest of us, who were there before them. We waited for someone to come to our table for 20 minutes. When she did come near us she went to the table next to us first, even though they came in 10 minutes after us. When we made a comment to the waitress about the wait, we were told that they were very busy and were short-staffed. We waited even longer for our drink order and then the appetizer and then the meal and had to ask several people for our tab and a box for the food to go. We were tired of waiting. All in all, it was 2 hours of being, for the most part, ignored. After waiting all that time, we only had a chance to listen to the band for about 20 minutes. I understand that the staff were doing their best, but it is up to management to properly staff events that are scheduled. The indoor seating should have been canceled for last night. Shame on the management for placing the staff and the patrons in such a difficult position. read more

11/25/2016-Thanksgiving Pick up: We recently moved into an apartment temporarily, until our new home is completed, and had heard that Frescos had Thanksgiving meals, that you can order and pick up. Since our apartment was small, we thought this would work for our family. We picked up the food at 2:30, Fresco's was very organized, you have an appointment time, and pull into a lane, and they bring the food to your car. This is a tremendous convenience. In addition the food was excellent. The green beans were crisp, the turkey, gravy, and mashed potatoes were excellent. The yams and dessert were also very good. We would recommend this to anyone, and we may even do this again next year when we are in our new house in Cranberry. I would give this food and service for the Thanksgiving dinner take out, 5 stars. Terry / read more

I reserved a room here for my husbands surprise 40th birthday party and it was absolutely perfect! The staff was so helpful and kind. They allowed our family in an hour early to set up. They gave great recommendations for set up. It was so easy. The party was great. They allowed us to bring in a cake from elsewhere and cut and served it for us. I wish they would have served larger slices as a lot of our friends were asking for seconds of the cake and there was a lot left over. Aside from that I couldn't be happier with the outcome! read more

I hesitated to write this because it seemed so implausible that we waited for close to 40 minutes to have our order taken, I feared no one would believe it. But I see that someone else had the same problem! After waiting about 10 minutes, our waiter appeared to tell us he'd be with us soon. "Soon" didn't happen for a very long time. We were with friends who had recommended the place based on food served at a Chadwick event (same kitchen, we're told) and we were enjoying our conversation, so decided to not make a fuss, but finally when a manager looking person appeared at a table near us, we asked if we would get service soon. Our waiter magically appeared. Service after that was mediocre. I went to the bar myself to get a drink rather than "bothering"our waiter. Many tables were empty, so we could not figure out what the problem might be, but our waiter seemed possibly to be having a personal problem, perhaps. My dinner was tasty and fresh, but my husband's fish was dry. We had arrived about 15 minutes early (a Saturday night) and waited in the bar for our friends, although our table was ready. Bartender was pleasant and accommodating. When we left at about 9, most of the tables were empty. Under other circumstances, we would have complained to a manager, but we did not want to cast a worse shadow on an evening out with friends. An email the next day to explain our less than satisfying experience has gone unanswered. I felt I would try that before complaining publically. We won't be going back. read more

Had dinner there last night with another couple. It was a good choice, it was almost empty, so we could hear one another speak. I had the bistro stack, which was prepared properly, tender beef, good crab meat cake. My wife's pork dish was good, large portion so having it today as well. Terrific attentive service! Beautiful outdoor patio was empty on a nice evening. Can't explain it. read more

The first time I have walked out of a restaurant. We went to Fresco's on December 23, 2015 as they offered a special discount offer as a pre-Holiday promotion. I was visiting from out of town and my parents told me that this place had some great food. When we arrived there was nobody waiting at the front. After about 10 minutes, a hostess appeared and showed us to our seats. We overheard the waitress tell the table behind us that she was the only waitress working that night. Strange, when the restaurant was offering a special offer and had quite a few customers. When the hostess walked passed our table, we asked if she could take our order. She told us that she "wasn't a waitress" and "didn't know how to take orders" - we were clearly frustrated and so she reluctantly went to find a notepad anyway. After another 10 min, she came back to take our orders - and clearly had no idea of what was on the menu. This made us nervous but we were still optimistic. 45 min later and we still didn't have even a glass of water. We noticed people coming in and the hostess telling them to leave. We then heard the waitress (that never waited on us) tell a table that the kitchen was "on hold" (whatever that means). We finally got our waters after about 1 hour - but after an hour and 15 min with no food and no explanation or apology, we got up and just left VERY disappointed. And there was nobody there to even notice! Worst dining experience of my life. Avoid this place. Note to management, hire more employees or stop posting offers you can't fulfill. I apparently can't give this restaurant zero stars. That's the only reason they are getting one. read more

Food was fantastic and reasonably priced. Most beers were too expensive. Staff was friendly and accommodating. We definitely need to come back more often. There was live music on the patio which would have been perfect for an evening with nice weather. read more

I really wanted to like this place! Despite the fantastic ambiance inside and out, the food was bland and boring. The service was also slow, and it was a quiet Thursday night when we visited. We probably won't be back unless we hear that they have a new chef. read more
