   Took wife out for valentine’s date. Seating was terrible. Instead of a table overlooking the water and docks, we were seated right behind the hostess station with a view of the parking lot and street - NOT what I had envisioned for a rare night out on the town with the kids. Waiter was not knowledgeable about menu. We settled for the Valentine’s Day special. Drinks were mediocre at best and the food was not memorable. In fact, the surf and turf steak was overcooked and dry in spite of ordering it medium rare. Waiter did knock off both drinks to try to make up for the lackluster food. Super disappointed and will not be returning.

   Service and food were excellent. Red fish was really good. Place was packed but you’d never know it with how fast we gout our drinks and meals. Highly recommend.

   We went to Fresco’s for Valentine’s Day and they had placed a lot of extra tables and chairs outside to accommodate the high demand for date night. But it did not affect their service or food quality one bit. Everything we had was delicious and we really enjoyed our night. Will definitely be going back again soon.

   Parking very difficult and they do NOT validate for parking garage. Food was decent other than the sirloin steak was tough. Server was friendly and it was nice sitting outside with water view. Shrimp appetizer was very good.

   Excellent setting but somewhat pricey. Signature Thai Mahi Mahi removed from the menu was a disappointment. Service is mostly on point.

   Service wasn’t very good. Unfortunately neither were the drinks. Food took an hour and the place wasn’t very busy. Wouldn’t dine again. There are much better spots in this area for dinner.

   The food and outside seating were great. Baja fish tacos, salmon and ahi tuna platter were well prepared. Our server lacked hospitality and enthusiasm.
