My son is a student at Bryant University and being a foodie, we found this awesome little Italian place that offered fantastic service and very good food at a reasonable price. My family and I sampled each other's food, it was all very good! Definitely a come back spot!

The minute I walked in I was impressed by the very comfy bar and super sweet bartender. We did the dinner for two special. Caesar salad crunchy and so tasty… the baked scrod was cooked and perfectly! We couldn’t resist the homemade icecream! Great night… can’t wait to go back.

Our first time at Fresco and everything was amazing! The fresh bread and olive oil dip was nice to munch on while we waited for our food. We had the burratta platter as an appetizer which was so fresh and tasty. Our food came out in a timely manner, perfect temperatures, and decent portions. My husband had the seafood stew and chicken marsala for myself. Our waitresses were very friendly and attentive, they even acknowledged it was our anniversary and brought out our tiramisu (delicious btw) with a candle. We loved dining here and will definitely recommend this place to anyone!

Great place to dine. Food was very good and portions generous. We ate at the bar and service was excellent and bartender was very friendly. Still had outdoor dining if that's what you like. Would recommend to anyone.

This was our second time eating at fresco. The first time was excellent, and the second time was was equally excellent. I took my family for both my daughters birthdays the second of which was Monday, September 2. The staff was very friendly and courteous and made my daughters birthday is very special on each occasion. The food was consistently great and I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys Quality, Italian food and enjoy a little extra for leftovers

Had dinner on a Friday night at 6:00. The restaurant was clean and neat. Our server was attentive and pleasant. The food however for our liking was not “exciting” or very “unique” whatsoever. I ordered the grilled chicken entree.
It was served with a whole seared tomato and steak fry wedges. The fry’s were on the bottom. Then the chicken breast. And finally the seared tomato. It looked cool. There was absolutely no seasoning on anything. And the fry wedges were completely soggy from the chicken drippings and the tomato. Again the tomato had no seasoning. The chicken was grilled with no seasoning. And the potato wedges tasted like a plain baked potato. The food was “good”. But again nothing very special about this dish. Extremely plain tasting and ordinary. The chicken Marsala was good. The mashed potatoes were creamy but again… very bland and plain tasting.
The meal cost $80 with a soda and a glass of wine. Don’t know if we’d go back. But everyone was pleasant and professional.

Ambiance set the tone of the evening. Had a six o'clock reservation so I guess the noise level was lower than normal volume but it was much appreciated. Service was excellent and the server checked on us without being intrusive. Definitely a go to place for an enjoyable evening.

We had a girls night at Fresco's. We will definitely be back. The bar and wait staff were terrific (shoutout to Megan and Reece), and drinks and food were delicious. Thank you!

We're never disappointed in the food or service. We do prefer to eat outside, because the seating inside is quite close together and can get noisy.

Food is excellent and so is price, but it's the service that keeps us driving from East Providence to Smithfield. We request Lori every time we come. Everyone is wonderful, but Lori seems to go above and beyond for us and is always welcoming and super friendly!!
