The menu had more options than I expected and the food arrived quickly and everything was correct. The burrito was a decent size and everything seemed fresh. The hashbrowns were on the crispy side, which I prefer! The toast was a little too crispy for me and I wish they rolled butter on them like traditional diners. The staff were very friendly and took great care of us. The dining room was very clean but tables are pretty close together, which can be uncomfortable with strangers.

Friends rave about this place. I finally had a chance to go. I called because open table has zero…read moreavailability. The hostess answered and she told me I could have a table for one at 7:15! Ok! I got dressed up and walked over there. My table was ready on time; it was in the lounge area of the restaurant. They offered me the table or said I could sit at the bar. I opted to sit at the bar. The bar was almost full but people were leaving. Apparently people eat early there. The bartender was swamped but smiled and got me a glass of water. Soon I had menus. I like that they have a regular menu as well as a specials menu, including the usual cocktails and some special cocktails. I ordered the conquest, which seemed like a twist on an old fashioned. They offered bread or focaccia bread, I declined. And heads up- bread service is not included. It's an up charge. Normally I don't care but I was having dessert, not bread. I had the halibut special. It was phenomenal. One of the guys from the kitchen dropped it off and asked if I needed anything'- I replied salt. I find that I need salt often at restaurants. They brought the salt out real fast! I had a bite and determined it didn't need any more salt- it was perfectly salted! Woohoo! Fantastic. I ate my whole dish and then I savored my cocktail. The bartender wasn't much for conversation , as she was very busy, alone, covering the entire bar and drinks for the whole restaurant. She did invite me to try dessert, and mentioned a coconut cream cake that was not on the menu. I agreed to it and it was heavenly. Seemed like cheesecake icing with fluffy layers of cake and subtle coconut flakes throughout. The chocolate ice cream was weird at first but then I realized it's like almond joy/ mounds - coconut and chocolate are often paired. The espresso crumble gave it a nice crunch and there was caramel all over the plate. Wow! I took the majority of the cake home. It was a large portion and indulgent. I paid my tab and finished my drink. I was not rushed. I would go back again. It's a bit pricey. The fish special was $58. The cocktail was $17 and the dessert was $16. So one person, who did not add on the bread service, was $91. It's expensive. I would emphasize you can probably get a seat at the bar if you can't get a reservation. Also- the entrance is hard to find. It's in the parking lot and not facing the main road. I got a little lost walking there. The signage is poor. I can't imagine going there the first time in the dark. So give yourself a couple extra minutes if it's your first time going there.

Wednesday CCGF LUNCH THE PERFECT CAPER…read more The Perfect Caper was more than perfect! We were over 30 ladies and our servers Zak & Tabby were superb in getting everything our ladies desired for lunch! We celebrated Mel o dy's March birthday ! And we had a few new comers join us. There was 3 booths and two large tables, and everyone was comfortable, and the conversations commenced. It is always a special place for our Charlotte County Girlfriends, Wednesday group. Food, ambiance and atmosphere top notch! We will be back for lunch, again very soon!

Love the vibe of the whole thing. The adobo was good too. The special was a rotisserie chicken with a nice presentation of banana leaves and rice. Next time I'll try the Leche flan. They didn't have it this time. I'm glad I discovered them with the help of Charlotte Technical College. They seemed to have a lot of interest. This is a great addition to the area. It's a food truck that has a great family vibe. We need some more Filipino options and this was indeed very good. I'd recommend a try as I love supporting local. Next time I'll stick with the pancit and lumpia because those were my favorite. We all have our own favorites. I would say try the adobo if you want to try something new and are open to new flavors but stick with lumpia and the pancit if you'd like to play it safe. They also had teriyaki that I didn't try but I know what I'll be coming back for. I hope to see them more often. Thanks for adding a great deal of variety to the area.

I also appreciated that they had a few vegan options on the menu, making it easy for everyone to find something they'd enjoy. The atmosphere was really nice and relaxed, perfect for a waterfront lunch. The only thing I'd mention is that it was a little chilly inside with the A/C, so I'd recommend bringing a hoodie if you're planning to dine indoors. Overall, great food, good vibes, and definitely worth checking out if you're in the Punta Gorda area!

* for service! She was excellent * for location! A great…read moreattraction in PG * for cold beer/sofa! Good selection 1. We got there at 7pm and the place was so hot. We didn't have a reservation so we had to dine inside. There was zero air movement and the doors were closed. There was a lady by the window, I would imagine warmer and she had sweat running down her face. We thought it was a drink and run because all of us run cold but it was h-o-t. But within maybe 20 minutes air started flowing. So someone got the message across. 2. The table was soaked with water from being what looks like washed. The hostess sat the menus on the tables and the menu became glued to the table. I used my napkin to dry the table and all the menus. 3. We ordered sushi, fish tacos and a hamburger. The fish tacos came out very fast. That was great for the 1st while the rest waited. He felt bad that everyone else was waiting so he offered his side of beans and rice for others to taste. All agreed the beans were tasteless - zero flavor. 4. Then comes the hamburger. Cooked perfectly and was ok but nothing to remember. The beans, as well, tasteless (no one at the table wanted to try again) and the rice was at the bottom on the pan because it was so crunchy, we thought it was old. 5. After I finished my hamburger, here comes the sushi. I heard it was ok but nothing amazing and nothing they were return to have there again. It was cooked good but the flavors were a big miss. I do believe they are fairly new to this location and perhaps working out all the wrinkles. So I post this to hopefully help them do just that. I will be back as I'm at the Village often. I think the next time, I will might just sit at the bar.

A huge yellow tea cup built into the sides attracting customers to "Fresco" is truly what caught my eyes. I walked up on the crisp white porch, couples tables with half empty cappuccinos atop of them. If I'm honest, it was the most comforting place I have visited in months. Anyways! The true star is all the gorgeous treats! Note: my mom devoured the limoncello cake in the car and didn't share and then she took me to lunch! After paying for my $8 affogato (can't put a price on good gelato) I was given the most generous portion. I will never forget watching that gorgeous lemon gelato fluff up. Not only do they make all their yummy treats in house, they offer a cozy sitting area. But best of all, they have a curated selection of pasta and olive oil imported from Italy. The touch here is so internal, I cannot wait to visit again and try even more!
