Have you ever found yourself wanting to go to an Italian restaurant without all the formality and expensive prices?  If so, Tutto Fresco is the place for you.

About Tutto Fresco

Tutto Fresco has been named one of the Best Italian Restaurants in Orange County for its excellent service and menu full of delicious dishes. 

Tutto Fresco is an Italian restaurant that is simple, good, and affordable. This italian restaurant provides an excellent dining experience in a relax and casual environment, so if you are not too into formalities, I will assure you will enjoy Tutto Fresco.

When you walk into the restaurant you will find a counter in which you can order your food, quite similar to fast food restaurants. Do not let that foul you. Although ordering italian food that way seems unusual, this does not reflect the amazing service that is provided on site. After ordering, the food is brought to your table just like in any other dining restaurant.

The staff at Tutto Fresco are very friendly and always make sure you have everything you desire. The wait for your food tends not to be long, and while you wait, freshly made garlic bread is provided. If you enjoy eating out in the open, patio seating can be provided as well.
