Being from the west coast, I'm quite picky about my fish. I usually prefer grilled fish, but it's difficult to find good grilled fish in Toronto so I decided to give Fresco's a try due to the excellent Yelp reviews.
It was so good. I had the cod. I have never had such great batter. It almost seems to melt into the fish, like the batter and the fish were inseparable. While the batter was light and crispy, the fish was tender, moist, plump, and very fresh. The quality of the cod was top notch.
The grilled salmon, on the other hand, was overcooked and tough.
The haddock tasted too fishy for me to enjoy.
I tried the Mrs. Vicky's batter and thought it was thick and gross, sorry.
The fries were bland and not crispy enough.
The mozzarella sticks were tasty with good amount of cheese inside.
The fried mushroom caps were not good. Thick batter and the mushrooms inside were bland with the weird sweet taste of the batter.
The place is small with 2-3 tables plus a bigger patio.
