There are not enough words to describe the experience at Fresca Nuevo... It's is truly an experience. My lovely Bride and I shared a Pisco Sour, Ceviche Carretillero and the Salmon Cesar (so very good). And topped the lunch off with dessert of the Peruvian donut!
Just go experience and enjoy!
You're welcome...
Fresca Restaurant, he says it's one of the best rotisserie chicken joints in the city. I came down to Corta Madera to eat with my pal Ol Buckethead Joe, maybe grab some seafood in Sausalito or something, and he tells me we gotta go across the bay to a Restaurant called Fresca. I told him I'm not parking my truck in SF without my little helper sitting in the front seat, because nobody puts their hand in the truck with him growling at them. The Uber cat took us right there and Ol Buckethead was right, that rotisserie chicken was amazing! As a matter of fact it was so good I got one to go. ☆☆☆☆☆
I came here on a company off-site. I got the lomito libre with garlic fries. It was delicious. For appetizer i tried the empanadas and yucca fries. Both were very good. The service was great. Only sad part was the heaters didn't work but they told us the city wouldn't let them turn them on. Great job sf politicians 👍
This is THE place to have lunch after a walk in GG Park or a visit to the museum. Comfortable and clean restaurant with heated outdoor patio. Our busboy/waiter was friendly and very professional. The food is amazing, everything we got was delicious. You must also try the excellent coffee! We chose to go with shared appetizers and desert, a real treat! We will be back.

Happy hour! Weds-Fri from 3-6 😃
A friend recommended the sangria ($7) It tasted of wine, lightly of citrus, and definitely had alcohol in it (pisco is one of the ingredients), but it was too sweet for me (not sickeningly sweet, but just a little less agave would've been perfect).
A different friend has been raving about their burger ($15). Even though I'm not big on burgers, I had to try! I ordered it medium rare and it turned out to be mostly medium. I was really impressed by the patty - it was thick, tender, juicy, and flavorful. I could see the herbs in it and I didn't really care that it was more well done than I wanted. The plantains were lightly caramelized, but probably not ripe enough because they were still firm and opaque. It also included a runny egg, melted cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, and rocoto aioli (yum) all on a brioche roll.
AND it came with your choice of salad, fries, or garlic fries.
I got the garlic fries - they were mild-moderately garlicky (not like at baseball games) so I probably won't deter vampires, but I enjoyed them. They were also extra crispy, despite their appearance.
Heads up - if you're sitting at the bar, it might be chilly if the door is open, as you're right in the pathway of the airflow.
The food expediter was great, and my server/bartender was alright - he was super busy!
I'd definitely come back for happy hour to try a different drink and bar bite 😊
I discovered this place when looking for happy hour spots close to me. I've been here multiple times since and have always been seated right away. Service is always really good and attentive. Their happy hour includes drinks as well as a specific plates. I almost always get the jaleta, beef heart skewer, oysters, and lomo saltado. The tapa plates are smaller portions so you can order many things to try. All the food is cooked very well and was really impressed by the beef heart the first time ordering it. It wasn't too chewy and well-seasoned. Their sangria pitcher pairs really well with the food and is great for sharing. Highly recommend this place for their happy hour!
Love this restaurant! Prefer the ceviche here over los costenara in half moon bay. The service is more genuine as well. Tried ceviche mixto, whole fried fish as well as some mixed drinks. Pisco sour is good.
A friend invited me here. Meanwhile, the food was pretty good, I mostly enjoyed the place and just being able to talk/have a good time. It might be good place for dates as the menu is small and the atmosphere feels nice.
I don’t have much experience with Peruvian food but as a person who enjoy trying new foods this was a nice surprise. We ordered Anticuchos (beef heart) skewers for appetizer, and Lomo saltado and toro steak salad for two mains. We also ordered a Malbec bottle which complemented the meat nicely. The anticuchos was absolutely delicious. The meat for the main was a bit chewy and a bit over cooked but it was flavorful (probably what the intention was to begin with). The salad was also very tasty so I recommend. But I also recommend not getting two dishes with the same meat and instead try a different dish. We also got the flan for dessert which was a great choice.
Really really nice Peruvian food! While finding parking nearby is indeed a hassle (there's a lot 2 blocks down), it all pays up with the tastiness of their food and warm nature of the staff.
The Tallarin Saltado was a genuinely impressive dish, combining Asian and Latin American traits. So was the Paella and the Ceviches!
