We spent out morning and early afternoon at the seafront and the nearby park. As we got hungry and my wife is celiac we startet to look for a restaurant with gluten free options. So we found Fresco's and wemt there for lunch. The nice terrace with the beautiful view over the bay was almost empty so we got a table at the end of the terrace. The menu has many different options from healthy salads, pasta, local dishes to pizza and meat. There are many gluten free options including gf pasta. My wife had sea food pasta and I got the pappardelle with beef and mushrooms. As noted in the menu the dishes are cooked freshly which takes a bit longer. Based on the very fair prices and our previous experiences in Malta we were a bit worried that the food would not meet our expectations. When the friendly but a bit reserved waiter brought pur food we were super excited before even trying it. It looks really delicous. The portions were very big (eventhough my wife had a small portion) and really really good. We both were really happy about the delicious food, which was based of the fair price one of the best meals we had in Malta. We can highly recommend this place for everybody and especially for celiac people.

Our server was exceptionally friendly and welcoming. The restaurant boasts a charming view of the sea, which adds to the overall dining experience. We opted for the grilled calamari and Maltese rabbit. The rabbit, unfortunately, fell short of expectations. It was dry, detracting from what could have been a delightful dish. In terms of the overall food quality, it was just ok. Nothing stood out. Fresco’s a decent choice for a casual meal but might not meet higher expectations for a special dining experience.

Pizzas here are pretty good. Very good view from the restaurant, which is likely why the prices are inflated compared to other similar restaurants. Service was really slow, but it was a busy night, so can't fault them for it. The downside to this place is that they refuse to offer tap water, like many other places in Malta. They say it's not safe to consume and offer you overpriced bottles of water instead. Ended up going back to our hotel and bringing our own tap water.

Never disappointed when we come here. We came for lunch on a busy Sunday for Mother's Day. It was A la carte menu adding some specialities of the day which in my opinion was much better than a set menu. The waitress was adorable, attentive and very knowledgeable also her colleagues when they served us. Everything we had was cooked to perfection including the delicious desserts. Amazing view of the bay on Sliema Promenade. We would highly recommend it to everyone!!

I went there on a date and we both liked it a lot (especially their octopus and fish of the day!). Things I was disappointed with was the bathroom (not too clean and the dryer didn’t work) and overall cleanliness of accessories (salt, pepper, wine glasses etc.). But all waiters, wine and food we had was honestly really good! I can definitely recommend this place for people who enjoy good seafood! Overall score: solid 4 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
