Al Fresco

First time here and we had a great "food-filling" time. Their lobster ravioli was so tasty as well as their beef lasagna.. Not to mentioned their mango- lemony sorbet with that tangy melts in your mouth goodness! 🤗 Service was great and quick. 👍

The chicken fettuccine was the best I have ever had. The child's serving was just perfect for my 10 year old. The service was top notch. When I declined the unsweetened iced tea, the waiter brought me a glass and simple syrup to try. It was really good tea 😊.

Most excellent food!! Classy, romantic atmosphere! Very generous portions! I highly recommend Al Fresco!

I must say I am so glad that my family and I found this restaurant while we were in Newport News. The food and service were so good that we ended up going here both nights we stayed! Our waiter Bill was the best waiter you could ever ask for, so good that we even requested to sit where he was serving the second night we came. Besides awesome service. The food was absolutely delicious. We are from NJ, and this place beats any Italian restaurant that we’ve been to there. The first night we started off with Caesar Salads and a house salad, followed by the Ravioli A La Vodka, Pollo Piccatta, and Penne da Vinci. They all blew us away. Not to mention the delicious Tiramisu. The second night we got the same salads but for dinner we got Fettuccine Alfredo w/Chicken, Lobster Ravioli, and Eggplant Parmesan, followed by yet another Tiramisu because it was so delicious. I seriously cannot wait for the next time I visit Newport News just so we can go here again for dinner!

I am a BIG pasta lover and needed to find a decent Italian restaurant while we were in town. I read a few reviews to decide what was our best option and stumbled across Al Fresco. I booked a reservation online since we were looking to go out to eat on a Friday night. From the outside it doesn’t look like much but as soon as we walked in… I knew we were about to have our cravings satisfied. We were sat in a quaint little corner and immediately greeted with the daily specials for the evening. We ordered the following: ✅Mozzarella in Corroza ✅Lobster Ravioli ✅Fettuccine Alfredo ✅Pollo Rustico We personally loved the Mozzarella. I’ve never been served mozzarella quite like that before. The cheese was so hot and the breading was perfect. The Lobster Ravioli was my absolute favorite. The pink cream sauce was so good it could be served as a soup and how can you go wrong with a lobster mouse piped into a ravioli?! My significant other enjoyed his Apollo Rustico and licked the plate clean. And the BREAD 🤤! They served the familiar olive oil but instead of herbs they mixed it with a balsamic vinaigrette that was truly amazing. The only thing I didn’t enjoy as much was the Fettuccine. I felt like it did not compare to all of the flavors I tasted with the other dishes. I would have preferred more garlic and a hint more salt. Still, the sauce was creamy. I would absolutely visit Al Fresco again the next time we’re in town. Next time I want to try the Penne Alla Vodka and Penne Al Forno 😉.

The ambiance, food and service was excellent. We got two chicken pasta dishes both very flavorful and tasty. A small salad and fresh bread comes with the main dish. The bread is simply amazing, seems to baked freshly. Our server took care of us the whole time. And paid attention to our needs

Very cute place. Authentic Italian food. Service was great. I'd highly recommend.

Three of us went to dinner at 6pm on a Wednesday evening. We didn't have reservations but the main dining room seemed almost full so they sat us in the second room. The food and service were phenomenal. We got the lobster ravioli and the salmon picatta. The free bread and olive oil was delish too. The only downside is there was a large party of like 20 people that came into the room and it made it hard to hear my friends at my table. But the host apologized for that and checked on us a few times throughout our dinner.
