Went for dinner and something has changed! Food was terrible. Literally grey pancetta and watery marinara. It was empty. Used to love Fresco so sad.

i’ve been to fresco’s twice, and they have been so kind to me. I’m a young diner, and I tend to dine alone. at a lot of places, they don’t treat me the same because i’m younger, and here they have been nothing but amazing. on my second trip, one of the ladies working recognized me from the first time I went. the food is amazing, and the salmon pasta penne is a personal favorite. definitely a spot you need to visit.

Michelle had spectacular table service. This is one of the best Italian restaurant we have in Bozeman. The atmosphere is on point with Valentin’s day. Hats off to the chef the meat balls for the appetizer was delicious. The special was delightful, we will be back soon.

We’ve been coming to this wonderful place for the last 5 years. Tonight I forgot my ID and of course I understand that they need the real thing with AI tech now. So I sent my poor husband home to grab it. The staff were very apologetic and made him a fresh coffee when he arrived back. We still love this place. The food is always amazing and we appreciate the staffs great attitudes and accommodations. I’m sure some customers aren’t as understanding. Keep doing what you’re doing!

12/14/23. Review updateANOTHER FABULOUS MEAL Shrimp Fettuccine was amazing and delicious! Wine selection wonderful and Josie our server was outstanding! Exceptional meal all around!!! There were nine of us and we were treated phenomenally!!!! Thank you!!!?This by far, is one of the best Italian restaurants I have ever eaten at. I have eaten in the North End in Boston many times and my meal at Fresco Cafe was an exceptional meal ... Flavorful food, timely, fresh, pleasant and friendly staff, tasteful wine selection and lovely ambiance. If you like Italian, yes this is the place to eat in Bozeman. They accommodated my outdoor seating request with reservation. Just can't say enough wonderful things about Fresco Cafe....job well done!

The food is elevated Italian with some other Mediterranean fare on the menu. The staff are polite and the vibe is fancy and mellow. Perfect for a date night.

Sadly the quality of food and breadth of offerings has changed greatly from pre Covid. Regretfully, our mussels, salmon and chicken were either on the verge of turning bad or poorly prepared.. Hopefully this go to restaurant can regain its former
We had a great dinner last night; what a wonderful restaurant. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. The food was so good! I got the yummy Ciopinno special, which was a favorite, and my husband got the lasagna, which was the best we have had. It was a great night!
The home made Italian sausage was bland.The sauce was watered down and had a weak flavorThe broccoli stalks were large and tough.We were put in the back room which was nice at first, then came a large group of ladies. The noise volume increased to the point no one in my group could hear each other.This place has sure changed since my previous visitsI will not return.

The food isn’t even deserving of 1 star. All meals were left untouched the bill was $300+. Unfortunately, won’t be back.

Started strong, appetizers were decent. Our server was friendly and prompt. The entrees arrived shortly after the apps and we were disappointed to say the least. The chicken parm was burnt, basically inedible, the pesto cavatappi had a puddle of oil collecting at the bottom. I’ve ordered both these things in the past and they were delicious. We told our server about the chicken parm and he did not attempt to remedy the situation in any way. We were celebrating a birthday in the group and asked the server about deserts, he said the tiramisu was complementary. I asked for other options and ended up choosing the brownie sundae. We were informed this item was not complementary but we didn’t mind paying for it. The server brought out tiramisu (not what we had ordered) and despite being “complementary” charged us for that and the chicken parm which was untouched. We had leftovers, he never brought them back to the table, we had to ask another staff member where the food was. We have had positive experiences before and we were incredibly disappointed with this one. Not worth the money when 2/5 people ate their meals.

Food: Food was good! Came out quick which is always nice! The Chicken Parmesan was good especially the actual chicken but the sauce was basic and tasted kind of bland. Spaghetti bolognese was really good!! Just wish there was a little more sauce.Service: Server was very friendly and attentive. She was very well versed in the menu.Atmosphere: Very dark and romantic setting. Has nice candles and quiet vibe.
