Really enjoyed the intimate setting at Le Fresca during our visit. We came in around 3 on a Tuesday. Brody was our server. We started with wine and an old fashioned. I tried their salad which was very good. We had the catch of the day, also, for a starter which was red snapper. I then tried the risotto dish and my date had the linguine dish. We enjoyed both a lot. We finished with the olive oil pound cake and tiramisu. Overall this visit was so pleasant from start to finish. Really enjoyed the genuine Italian dishes. The restaurant has a dark ambiance but it’s perfect. Clean restrooms and very friendly staff.

This is the best Italian restaurant in the Sate of Alabama. The food is always fresh and handmade. The service is top notch - friendly, informed, and professional. The owner is there all the time and takes great care of the business. The owner goes above and beyond with personally training the staff in all positions. Although my observations have been limited, the owner is respectful, empathetic, and graceful with the employees. The incorporation of local ingredients is superb, the wine - delicious. If you visit the region, it is worth a reservation in advance. It is also worth the money! Grazie mille Le Fresca!

Le Fresca is indescribeably phenomenal. House made sausage and homemade pasta. Duck risotto.... delish!!! Drinks are also fantastic. Atmosphere and vibe is relaxed and cozy. Service staff is knowledgeable and professional while also being extremely personable. Great experience all around.

This place is always an A in my book. It’s by far my favorite restaurant to go to in Birmingham. I really enjoy that they are constantly rotating their menu to feature different items so even if you come back regularly, you can always try something different. For appetizers, we ordered the butternut squash ravioli and the Burrata. Both dishes were excellent. I highly suggest trying their ravioli. All of their pastas are homemade, but the ravioli is sent from heaven and simply irresistible. For drinks, we got an Aperol spritz And the lost plane which is an aged rum cocktail. For our main, we ordered the Ragu rigatoni And the braised short rib risotto. Also I ordered the pork chop with sauteed kale and butternut squash. I love their pork chops here because they don’t have that extremely porky taste to them. it’s a high cut of pork I can tell you that. They knocked both of these dishes out of the park. Our server crystal was amazing and extremely attentive and suggested a lot of dishes for us to try. The owner is super friendly and I like joking around with him. He’s always checking on tables and making sure the restaurant is in tiptop shape. I do understand that there are a plethora Of other Italian restaurants to try, but I always find myself back at this one. The Quality and attention to detail is unparalleled. Just as a sidenote, I strongly recommend that anyone reviewing restaurants on Google always put the name of your dishes and drinks in the review or on the pictures. I love trying some of the items that you all suggest but have a hard time, figuring out what it is specifically on the menu.

Burrata- peaches were not super sweet! Worked well- yum Mushroom pasta- 10/10 Steak- medium 10/10 Margarita pizza- 1000/10 Tiramasu- 10/10 This place is delicious! They take reservations but may be out day of on the weekend- plenty of bar seating! We came in around 8 and didn't have to wait for the bar! Hope to be back soon!

Le Fresca is an absolutely wonderful experience. The service is attentive, the food is amazing and it's a great atmosphere to enjoy food and friends. I loved my scallops and my friend enjoyed her sheepshead fish. Cannot wait to return!

Atmosphere, service, wine pairings, food all wonderful. Cozy setting with attention to detail in menu and service. We had the burrata (never had anything like it before and was so tasty), risotto, margarita pizza, pork and everyone enjoyed their meal. I can’t remember the name of the wine that was recommended by our waiter but it was enjoyed by all as well. Would go back for sure.

It was honestly the most happy accident that we found ourselves at Le Fresca. The host was able to help us get a seat at the bar on a busy night. We ordered the pork and Gorgonzola pizza and the short rib ravioli special. Both were amazing, especially paired with the Pinot Nero. We finished our evening with a delicious tiramisu! Our bartender who waited on us, Matthew, gave us great recommendations relating to the menu, wine pairings and provided great company and service. As an out of town visitor, I have already added this restaurant to a reason to return to Birmingham again soon!
