Fresco Italian Cafe on the Canal

Best meatball sub I've probably ever had.

Loved the tequila line ice drink so tasty. Salad was pretty blah as well as the dressing and tuna salad.

Can't believe we've never eaten here before today! Enjoyed lunch on the patio this morning with our two dogs. The flatbreads were amazing!! Their homemade tomato sauce is outstanding. We can't wait to come back and try the other menu items!

Perhaps we caught Fresco on an off day. It was a Friday evening (7ish) and the place was vacant. The person taking our order didn’t seem to enthused to serve us.. even though they didn’t close for another hour and a half.

The Italian beef was good (it’s their specialty).
The Tuscan tuna was flavorless and just bad… the Italian soda was pretty bad too.

The setting is beautiful, though. Right on the canal. Dog friendly on one side of the patio and seating inside if it is raining.

If you eat here, get the Italian beef and skip the Italian soda.

Walking down Michigan Rd in the late afternoon sun & this HEAT I was hoping for an indoor table. But I was pleasantly surprised that sitting in the shade, feeling the cool breeze coming off of the canal it was rather nice.
I didn't feel like having a pizza so I ordered their Tuscan Tuna Salad.
Oh my gosh, sooooo delicious!
I thought their lemonade was rather tart.

Great food and service! I came here with my three kids and we loved the view, the atmosphere, and especially the “Spaghetti with Dad’s Homemade Sauce.” Loved it!

Love this little gem in the city! Great food, lovely s’mores for a date, fantastic drinks! Totally recommend for any age!

Nice place by the canal. Lots of seating outside.

Bacon sandwich was good and the bacon was crispy, not soggy.

Lovely area to walk in and we stopped here for a refresh and snack. The red pepper dip was fantastic and lemonade was fresh. Perfect seating area in the shade to enjoy the weather and canal!

It was our first time & we were very impressed. Their friendly service was refreshing! Their food was light & full of flavor. It was approximately $12 a person. They offered us water cups because we didn’t want soda. Clean environment. We will definitely return when we are in the area again.

Outside seating next to the Canal Walk is very relaxing. There were maybe 5 tables inside the restaurant, but it has a large front patio. Pets are welcome outside. Tried the Italian Beef due to all the positive reviews. It was very good. My hazelnut iced coffee was just so so.
