Cafe Fresco
Reviews
Nice place. Strong drinks. But pricey. Lunch is okay. Salad was decent. Dinner is delicious but a little pricey for the area. Good portions. Pad Thai and seafood pizza were really good. Tuna burger was phenomenal
My husband used to work around the corner from this place, so we'd find ourselves going there for lunch on a regular basis. Never had a bad meal and the price was very reasonable for lunch. Enjoyed the fresh fruit cup! Wish my husband was still working in Harrisburg so we can go there again!
Very good food and drinks. Prices have gotten a little high. Staff is always friendly. Great atmosphere for central pa.
I had a good feeling for Cafe Fresco the first time I went to dine there - the ambiance, service etc was very appealing and inviting. So I thought of giving this place another shot last night. I'm glad I did :) Seems like the entire kitchen crew woke up and is back on the job again! The ambiance, great service (thanks Ashley), good drinks were all there, and the food was good too! Martini lovers - Pineapple Martini here is to die for!!! We had Crab Tempura for appetizer - 4/ 5 stars! Fried crab sticks were perfectly crisp and tasty :) Main Course: Wasabi coated Filet Mignon and Crab Fried Rice. Crab Fried Rice - 3.5/ 5 - much better than a takeout Chinese restaurant but little lacking compared to my favorite Chinese restaurants. Can't put my finger on it, but the hint of shrimp sauce/ oil was a bit overwhelming on the dish. Wasabi coated Filet Mignon - I ordered it Medium Rare and the steak was served sliced - which was fine by me. The meat did look medium rare! It was tender and flavorful and the wasabi did add a nice kick to the steak. Even the sides of mashed potatoes and steamed asparagus were good, though the asparagus was tad bit too salty for me. - 4/ 5 stars. Bottom line - I'm glad I went there again and would recommend this place if you want a fine dining experience in Harrisburg :)
Not too expensive but the food just wasn't that good. I had the pesto pizza and my wife had the kobe burger and both were just average. The server was very nice and the atmosphere was excellent.
