Fresco's Restaurant in Clarkesville

Great little place! Food is amazing each time we visit. Taste spot on, portions perfect! Love this place!

My husband planned to take me here for my Birthday since we always had great service and food here. But I read the reviews and almost backed out us going here but we decided to go anyways knowing all has been good. But tonight was terrible. First off pork chop was over cooked. Mash potatoes had No flavor! My son got mashed potatoes with his meal and said the same thing. Husband got the salmon came with carrots and asparagus the white sauce had no flavor and was not a big fan of it. Service was ok but not great. Was not worth $45 and probably won't be back unless the reviews get better.

My husband and I were in the area to see the car museum, and we wanted lunch. Unfortunately, our go-to spot was closed for the day, so we parked on the "square" thinking we'd walk around and pick a new place for our lunch. Immediately, I saw the sign for Fresco's Restaurant, noted that it was open for lunch and offered pasta and burgers (two favorites for us) so we decided to give it a shot. We were seated instantly by a pleasant young lady and given a freebie to munch on. You might need it, because it takes a bit of time to peruse the large menu. I asked for suggestions, but hubby ordered a burger and fries. I wish I had taken a picture of it, because it was really huge! He said it was very good. I ordered the special of the day, "Las Vegas," which was fried chicken portions topped with saucy mashed potatoes adorned with tomatoes, mushrooms, and shrimp. This was accompanied by a salad on a huge platter. Not only was it a huge portion of food for the price, but it was tasty, too. Service was great! This restaurant is quite large for the area, so things were not crowded together. (BTW, I noticed that other reviewers mentioned a buffet, but the menu and service we had was for a sit down and dine in situation, which was exactly what we wanted.) We don't live in the area, but if you visit or live nearby, please give Fresco's a try. We were both quite impressed.
