    We love coming to the Anderson Japanese Gardens and the Fresco is a delicious treat. We've enjoyed both the breakfast and lunch options, with exquisite attention to flavors and presentation. A wide offering of beverages are available and we look forward to trying the mimosas. Outstanding dining in a garden setting. Sit outside in good weather or request a window seat and soak in the beauty of the gardens.

    Excellent restaurant! All 4 of us had a great, relaxed meal with excellent service. We appreciated being seated at a quieter table so we could hear and visit. We will go back.

    One of the best meals I’ve had in a while. I had the KC strip. Wife had the mushroom Ravioli. Both excellent. Love the oysters Rockefeller and the French onion soup.

    Benny has a wonderful restaurant and I like that he has a 4 for $40 menu with many different entrees to choose from! You can’t find anything like that in the area. It’s nice to see the owner conversing with his patrons and checking on them. Keep it up!
