Great Monday night deal, which includes 2 salads, 2 dinners and a bottle of wine. The service is excellent from the reservation, thanks Bill, to the service at the bar and table. I highly recommend this place. The food is always delicious and affordable.

We went for my wife’s birthday with our 2 young boys. The staff was very attentive and accommodating which made for a wonderful evening out with the family. Everything was fantastic and we can’t wait until our next visit.

I consider this Fresco location as a local/neighborhood place - the food is always great. The specials are a great value but always great. Best service every single time. I recommend everyone to try Fresco Cranston. Top on my list.
