    “Our family has visited Al Fresco when we happen to be in the area (we live in MA) or made the trip for special occasions. It is always clean and surprisingly not busy even on weekend nights. The service is friendly (last evening we were helped by Dorothy, who offered friendly conversation) and all of our food was fresh, hot, and large portions. I'm not sure why some other reviewers had bad experiences or thought the price/value for the selection or food was poor, but we have never had a bad experience here over the last few years. Al Fresco remains our favorite family style Italian restaurant to enjoy a handful of times a year.”
