Enjoy a Wonderful Carlsbad Restaurant, Fresco Trattoria, the Heart and Soul of Italy in Downtown Carlsbad Village
While there are lots of Carlsbad restaurants, Fresco Trattoria stands out - the heart and soul of Italy in downtown Carlsbad Village within sight of the blue Pacific.
Owner Leone D'Arcangelo hails from Sperlonga, Italy, a beachfront town midway between Naples and Rome, and one can easily imagine you are dining by the Mediterranean Sea in Sperlonga instead of in Carlsbad, CA, with the beautiful hand-painted murals that adorn the dining rooms.
And of course the food is special as well (my lunch dish, Rigatoni Salsiccia alla Siciliana, rigatoni with Italian sausage, was excellent). Open for both lunch and dinner, the menus are creative, using the freshest ingredients, with some of the classic Italian dishes but with special touches by Leone D'Arcangelo, himself a former chef.
There are seating areas inside and out, just a two minute stroll from the ocean.
Fresco Trattoria is at 264 Carlsbad Village Drive, just west of the coast highway/Carlsbad Boulevard. (760) 720-3737.
Or visit their other location, Fresco Wine Bar and Grill in Bonsall at 5256 S. Mission. (760) 631-1944.

Testimonials
Took my wife out for her birthday and the staff, particular our server, ensured the evening went perfect. Friendly and fast service, knowledgable about the food and based on our reactions and feedback made suggestions on food we would like. The food was excellent, and I would reccomend the Shrimp Bisque, best I have eaten. I will definately be going back again and again to try the rest of the menu items...
