NOTE: My rating is 3-1/2 stars. (I hope that someday Yelp allows us to do that.) We were visiting Clark Botanic Garden (about 5 minutes away) and wanted to have some lunch. I opened the Yelp app to look for something fun / different nearby. When I saw Fresco Creperie (5 minutes away; excellent reviews; girlfriend loves crepes!) I knew this was the place. ** Initial impression ** - I didnt care for the decor. Not exactly sure how to describe it - but to me it felt a little cold. The restaurant is somewhat long and narrow (imagine a galley kitchen). The front has very large windows (which does help) but it still felt just a little claustrophobic to me. ** The menu ** - A decent selection, but I felt they were missing some of the "basics". I didnt see too many breakfast crepes. I like crepes that are almost like an omelet - scrambled eggs with cheeses (american, cheddar, swiss, mozzarella), meats (ham, bacon), and maybe some veggies (tomato, onion, mushrooms). Its possible they gave us a lunch menu (because it was around 1pm) but I would have liked more "breakfast type" options. I am also a big fan of mozzarella cheese and I did not see that listed as an option. As far as what was on the menu, there were some really nice (unique) choices. Apple & Brie, for example. My girlfriend tried the soup of the day (potato leek). Potato leek is one of her favorites and she said it was excellent! Savory crepes are served with a small salad. It tasted very fresh and the dressing was really nice - a little vinaigrette, slightly tangy but not overpowering. ** The service** - Things were a little off when we went. (I have to agree with Justins comment: "Wait staff is a slow with brining out just our coffee or tea".) Someone took our order fairly quickly, but then they forgot to bring the drinks that we ordered (a Pepsi and a Café au lait). Its important to note that once they realized they (1) brought the drinks right over, (2) apologized and (3) gave us the drinks for free. The Café au lait was actually quite good. ** The prices ** - Very reasonable. With our drinks being "on the house" the bill was around $25. No complaints there. Would I return? Yes, but only if I happened to be in the area. The food was good but I dont think Id go out of my way to get there. Sweet n Savory in Patchogue is still (hands down) our favorite!

Been coming here since it opener and never had a bad experience. They are cash only, but do have an ATM in the back of you need cash. All crêpes are made to order and they offer very filling savory crêpes (that all come with a Mesclun Salad) and delicious savory crêpes. Staff is always friendly and the owner is usually around and makes sure you have a pleasant experience.

I was trying to find a nice place to eat crepes, nearby and finally got it! I highly recommend banana con dulce de leche crepe and chocolate with berries. Also they serve delicious drinks and coffees. The service is great. The downside: the whole place looks too dark and needs a little bit more color to attract more costumers. Other than that I had a great experience!

We have our mom admitted at Winthrop hospital for a few days now. So we were looking for a decent cup of coffee. Had a cappuccino and it was perfect! Everything I envisioned and wanted! Crepes are delicate and light. Heavenly, delicious!!! The staff is genuinely nice and very warm. This made our experience even more pleasant after such a stressful week.

Love, love Frescoes. Writing this from inside the restaurant. Casual dining, cash only. The crepes are fabulous for dinner and the dessert crepes are amazing. Cash only. The only thing that would make it better is larger water glasses. Their water glasses are thimble sized.

This is an excellent independently owned French creperie in the heart on East Williston Park NY, the food is amazing and the service great as well. The salads and fresh squeezed OK was delicious. Also the music and atmosphere is perfect for dining!

Apple and brie crepe was good, but spinach and goat cheese was not. Tasted like frozen spinach was used, which made the crepe soggy. Also a bit overpriced.
