Chef Jenn DiSanto opens up her long awaited Fresco this Wed, Oct 20th,  in the Fountain Square Shopping Center on Far Hills Avenue, just south of Dorothy Lane.  If you missed our earlier 10 questions with Chef Jenn, you can read it here.  Fresco will have  a variety of already prepared menu items for carry-out that are ready for you to enjoy when you walk in. Additional made to order menu items are made fresh using the finest ingredients available. Place your order from the weekly menu posted on the website, call for the menu or stop by. There is no need to call ahead- you are more than welcome to place your order and just relax for a moment while we prepare it.

While they specialize in food to go, you can  join them for lunch in.  They will have a small seating area where you can dine or just wait while they prepare  your individual or family style dinner to talk home and just re-heat later!  If you do prefer to call in ahead so your order is ready to pick-up on your way home please be sure to let them know the time you will pick up, the items you would like and if you want a single order or family style (4 servings).

The carry-out menu is available for lunch and dinner Monday- Friday 11:30-6:00 (other arrangements may be made to accommodate orders when possible)

How it works:

  • They have a weekly menu posted on their website or you may call to inquire about the weekly offerings. They’ll have some  Panini’s, salads, soups and lighter fare for lunch and an additional menu of amazing dinner entrees for you to choose from.
  • Stop by and place your order and they will make it right then or you may call ahead by calling 937-296-0600.
  • Now all you have to do is drive home safely, re-heat your meal(s) (following the simple re-heating instructions they provide with each meal) and enjoy top quality, preservative-free, gourmet meals in the comfort of your own home!
