      Where do I start. It's a good smoky Mexican restaurant. Pleasantly surprised when checking in because we received an offer for a free queso! It was cheesy and tasty. The salsa
      Is spicy but they do have a very mild offer as well. Everything though had a very noticeable "smoky flavor". Not sure how I feel....

      The street corn is delicious! The charro beans lacked "flavor" and was watery. The Shredded chicken enchiladas with Sour Cream sauce was very good and tasty but I would stay clear of the crunchy tacos.

      Service was impeccable! Our server was the absolute best!

      Hostess-

      1. Please don't complain to guests about your job at hand, as guests arrive.

      We are there for a PLEASANT dining experience.


      2. Upon seating. Engage in pleasant small talk with guests while walking WITH them to their table. As opposed to running off to seat guests.

      I'm disabled, & walk with a cane. Hostess walked away from us, & my wife & I had to hunt down our table, as the hostess rushed back to the hostess stand.


      Server Joaqin-

      Absolutely disgusting seeing you eating & licking  your fingers while ringing in orders!! When I questioned you about it. Your response was...

      "There's birthday cake in the back, & I was eating a strawberry. But, I washed my hands in the back."


      I think guests would rather see you wash your hands, as opposed to you licking your fingers!

      Remember. You are on stage, & all eyes are on you.


      MOD-

      Non existent.

      Never saw one. Nor any table touches. 

      Had I saw a manager, I would've informed them of our evening.

      Inmates running the asylum.

      Herding cats.



      My wife & I narrowed our decision down to this restaurant because I was hungry for tamales. & the brisket tamales seemed like they would be a good choice.

      But, unfortunately. Tamales were 86'ed for the evening. On a Saturday night??

      Poor inventorying.

      Our dish we ordered was ok.


      Server-Tony

      Thank you for being so attentive to our needs. Even though you were not our server.

      & making a bad experience, a better experience.

      If we ever decide to patron Fresco's ever again. We will ask for you.

      We thought the food was a little overpriced to comparable seafood plates. A regular margarita was served in a Tom Collins glass for $11 which anyone would call overpriced.
      Wife said she enjoyed the enchiladas but I ordered the chicken fajita tacos and the meat came out in little pieces, not even shredded, but never experienced fajita meet this way. I will say taste was good.
      Bring down the prices as you have so many top Mexican food places to go down the street.

      Definitely on the pricier side, in my opinion. Think it was like $48 for fajitas for two. However, the quality of meat was fantastic. Our waitress was attentive despite a busy Friday night. It's kind of dark inside, maybe a good casual date spot.

      Do Not under any circumstances get their Mixed Grill unless you are willing to share or have the appetite of a giant. Joaquín was awesome.

      Excellent Texican ribeye and elote. Our table side guacamole was perfect. I will say, though, the sides of guacamole that came with the quesadillas that really looked
      nice- I didn't try them- had surely seen its better days.

      I went into this location With high expectations. The wait wasn't too bad and the service was decent enough considering they were short on staff.
      But ultimately, we go into a food place to have food that should have the lease the edible and palatable to the taste. Such was not the case. I ordered a combo bladder enchiladas and one of the enchiladas was decent enough. Brad was a bit salty taco just kind of left. It's almost dead. They had no flavor to the beef was lackluster at best, my wife ordered Caesar salad with fajita meat on it. It's hard to think that you can get a Caesar salad wrong. They failed. The Caesar salad tasted fishy. It was overdressed, and the meat was at best Too chewy.

      The food was not good. Have brisket taquitos that tasted like fish. It even smelt like fish.
      Ever since they sold, their food has gone downhill

      I have ordered frescos on Uber eats their fajitas are delicious. However my cousin was in town for Cinco de Mayo & she wanted a margarita. So I brought her here because it's right up the street. I know Texans love a reason to eat tex-mex, but believe me when I say this was ridiculous. We waited for 55 minutes for a table. Once we sat it took another 20-25 minutes before we were brought chips & salsa & our drink orders were taken. During our time here we saw our waitress 2 times to take our drink order & our food order. Someone else brought everything out way later. The whole place was extremely noisy from the amount of people & the music. We both ordered nachos & I ate 2
      & couldn't eat anymore they were so terrible. My cousin ordered chicken & they brought her beef so we had to flag someone down to get her the right thing. Then she waited another 20 minutes for her cold nachos. I'm going to give this place another try but definitely won't be going on a holiday. Management didn't have control that night.
