    I would highly recommend Al Fresco. Took wife there for Valentine’s Day. We had a great time. The food was excellent. The prices were very reasonable. It was a little annoying that we had to keep asking for everything salt, pepper, sweetener for example. But when we asked the response was timely. We are already planning to return and take out other menu items. Valentine’s Dayroses for the females was a super nice touch.
