The first time I ate here we sat on the outdoor patio during Happy Hour. We had a unique salad, pizza and a custom drink. The food was excellent as was the service. The second time we ate at a table inside, open air. Again...had an excellent custom drink. We order appetizers, Brussel sprouts, Calamari and excellent scallops. I had the Beet salad it was good but I am going to try another salad the next time. I will be coming back and also will recommend to anyone passing thru Carlsbad. The parking is limited right now because they are using the lot for dining outdoors. They are training new staff, be patient and you may want to review your check before paying.More

So friendly and the food was different than other places which is why we liked it. The chef at the Deck is an artist and so glad we experienced it.

Reservations are recommended but service is friendly and quick. We had reservations for 6:30 and were out in less than an hour. Gluten free pasta is available and our server was knowledgeable to making a dish not labeled "GF" as such (Pollos Tres Colores). Everything...was very good - brussels sprouts appetizer, Ravioli al Formaggio di Capra, beet salad, Spaghetti Carbonara, and the Pollos Tres Colores as mentioned. Bread and olive oil is complimentary when you are seated. We were seated indoors but there is outdoor dining with heaters above which is still needed this time of the year. The atmosphere is very nice but dress can be casual.More

May 4 2021, dinner at 6:15 pm. Seated promptly. Large dining areas. We like early diners. I had lasagna, serving could have been enough for a family of four. Generous amount of sauce, meat, and cheese blended into a lovely dish. My son asked for...a vegetarian dish, which was not on the menu. Server created a pasta dish with pesto and vegetables. He loved it. We recommend this Italian restaurant.More

The restaurant has gone through a transformation since we were last here and is a lively place that has the energy of an upbeat restaurant. In addition, 264 Fresco has done a wonderful job is expanding its outside dining to accommodate safe COVID practices. Fortunately,...the food remains appetizing and we very much enjoy our two seafood dishes. Both were prepared beautifully and met our expectations which made for a fun night out.More

We drove past this place and every time it was packed, so one night we stopped in for dinner. Not sure what the hype is. Food was bland at best. You could get better "italian" at olive garden. Even the little bread that was brought...had a chunk in it that was quite hard. Plenty of seating though, with the upstairs and the tent available.More

Carlsbad Food Hop #2 of 6. We stop at a restaurant for an appetizer and glass of wine. Loved this place!! Excellent customer service. We had the Burrata, Prosciutto and artichoke heart. Glass of Santa Margarita Pinot Grigio. We will be back!
