I'd give it 5⭐if it weren't so noisy. Very open seating and noisy. The food, drinks and service were awesome.

Enjoy a gorgeous view of Madison's skyline perched atop the Contemporary Art Museum. The tuna tartare, a must order, is soft and buttery. This is a perfect intimate place to entertain friends.

Wonderful food, great drinks, and friendly staff. The views are incredible. We found the portion sizes a little small, but the dishes are definitely on the gourmet side. This is also where we had our wedding reception a couple of years back. We loved it!

Terrible experience. Ordered the spring roll and it tasted like a mix of dog food and cardboard. Cooked my burger till it was a hockey puck. The halibut was way too dry. Honestly, my dorm food is better than this place

Salmon dish entree and heritage potatoes small plate were excellent. Desert was yummy. Good service and good views of the Capitol building at night.

Would've given this a 5, but won't recommend the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. Neither of the 2 panko breaded cutlets had enough Buffalo sauce leaving the sandwich rather dry. Although they laid on a very healthy dose of blue cheese. The Sunday brunch is a great deal, and outdoor seating in the rodeo deck was definitely a highlight. Plus the drinks were all spot on.

Awesome restaurant for an upscale dinner or a casual evening with friends. I was in town for work and met up with a friend and he high my recommended this place. The wait staff was amazing, not to mention the view skyline view of the city. The restaurant is located atop a museum. We enjoyed the halibut, broccoli, Brussels sprouts (to die for), 2 glasses of wine and the gnocchi. Would def visit again.

An upscale restaurant in downtown Madison on the top floor if a glass-sided building. Fantastic seasonal food with a great view.

Went on a double date and when we wanted a dessert place with a view, we opted for Fresco. While the view can't be beat, the dessert menu was a little meh. I had the flourless chocolate cake which was little more than six very small brownies served with drops of the fancy reduction mentioned on the menu. Two of our party got the blueberry crumble which would have been better described as blueberry crunch - it was much more the consistency of a peanut brittle than a traditional crumble.

I don't mind food innovation and experimentation, but if a chef is going to do that, I think it would be better not to use words that already have deep food connotations and expectations.

Been coming here for years and have rarely been disappointed. The portions are small but i have never let hungry. The menu is always innovative. The sweet corn creme brulee and the lollipop lamb chops are just a few of the memorable dishes I have had. The views are great as well.

Fresco is a fun spot to rub shoulders with your fellow Madison sophisticates. I enjoy stopping in here for a scotch or martini before doing some less structured and well behaved drinking later on. It's also a good spot at which to stop after a show at the Overture Center.

They make sizable martinis, and they are only slightly overpriced, undoubtedly to help price out the "riff raff." The only drawbacks are that their hours are a bit unpredictable - sometimes they are open late, but other times they are closed by the time I go out.

All in all, Fresco is one of the many spots that make up a well rounded evening in downtown Madison.
