Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Everything was great. Food was delicious. Staff were lovely. The guy who served us was super friendly,, the one with the black nail polish.. Just a bit dark in there so we had to use our phones to see the menu

We visited with my son's in-laws, the meal and service was excellent as always. We are fortunate to live only 350 yards from Fresca so are able to walk and enjoy a drink with our meal.

As usual - great staff, great venue and great food. This is a really friendly restaurant that has become established as a firm favourite in Saddleworth.

Fantastic food, especially the seafood. We had mains specials of mussels and crab linguine which were excellent, as was the seafood linguine off the main menu. Home made chicken wings and squid were great starters and the tiramisu was just like having it in Italy....Lots of space and very accommodating of an elderly guest with a walker as well as a four year old. Good choice in the children’s menu too, plus colouring etc. Only small criticism was speed of service. The server was very friendly but with a very quiet restaurant service was slow. This has happened before too. Not an issue to us as we weren’t in a hurry, but surprising given number of covers.More

Great for families with young children, they can run around and have fun, without worrying as lots of families. The food is pretty good, the only dishes I would avoid are the salads, more about looks than an actual meal for someone.

Had a really lovely meal here with a new friend. I've been a couple of times before and really enjoyed it so I recommended :) We both had something different for starter, main and dessert and tried a little of each others. Everything was delicious!...The staff were bright and friendly and the atmosphere warm and inviting. Will definitely keep coming back here :)More

First time I'd been here. Ten of us went for an early Father's day treat. Nice atmosphere (if loud), friendly staff and comfortable. Food went down well. The only comment I'd make is that I personally think each person should have a side plate for...their starters. Holding a slice of hot pizza isn't ideal.More

Collected a takeaway last week, go a few times and spend a fair bit of money here. Food’s good, albeit portions down on what they used to be and prices up Found on this occasion one of the owners/chef quite rude and lacking in customer...and social skills when a request was made for extras, which we had prior advised we were willing to pay for Took the edge off this didMore

We just didn't like the decor, it looks like a school dining room. The food was average to be honest, nothing special at all. Even the garlic bread was bland. We all ordered pasta and it was edible but nothing special at all. I doubt...i will go back here in a hurry.More

There were 8 of us for a celebratory 90th birthday meal, the atmosphere, the service and the food was all perfect. Four people had steak and said it literally melted in the mouth, compliments to the chef. We had a lovely afternoon to remember!

Been going for years and never until this point had a disappointing experience. Ordered a takeaway for collection and very disappointed to find on arrival home that our order was incomplete and that the portions were a lot smaller than they used to be. Pasta...dish not much smaller than a child’s portion with only 3 small pieces of chicken in and garlic breads I’d say a third smaller than they used to be. Same sizes reductions applies to chips/fries. Totally acknowledge that prices are going up all around but the price of this take away was extortionate when looking at what we got. Don’t mind paying a fair price for a fair meal but this fell well short of expectations all round. Won’t be going back in a hurry sadlyMore

My experience wasn't great and i have to say this wasn't the first time we had poor service. That said, food was good, service let's this restaurant down.
