Trattoria Fresco - Ross

The only drawbacks were the limited parking in the area, which is not the restaurant's fault, and the cost. The online reviews rated the restaurant as a 5 in terms of cost, and I did not want the price of our meal to overshadow our evening. While I have no issue with spending money on a nice meal for my girlfriend, the overall cost gave me pause about returning in the future. For our romantic dinner, we shared a salad, had a delicious dessert with coffees, and each had a drink. The total bill, including tax and tip, came to $150, which I felt was a bit pricey for Italian food for two people. Considering the rising cost of living in the last few years and the fact that it was Valentine's Day in Marin, I can understand the higher cost. I am grateful to see that restaurants are still striving to stay open after so many were forced to close due to COVID-19. I encourage you to give this place a try, enjoy a meal and some drinks, and see for yourself if the quality justifies the cost.

I do not recommend this restaurant for families with children. The manager was rude when he found out some of our party were kids, making us feel unwelcome by tossing silverware around and mumbling to himself. Despite the empty restaurant, he eventually suggested we eat at the pizza place across the street. We declined.
