Horrible staff

Phenomenal service and attentiveness during my dinner with my Wife. The general manager on-site made sure that our dining experience was exceptional and enjoyable. Great ambiance and decor as well. Definitely worth the visit!
Fresco da Franco made my 21st birthday unforgettable.
The staff went above and beyond, even reserving a table for my cake and playing a birthday song to celebrate. The food was just as amazing--the lumache was rich and full of flavor, the burrata was creamy and fresh, and the meatballs were absolutely d

Disappointed
We made a reservation at Fresco da Franco for an early dinner before opening night of the Montclair Film Festival. We hadnโt been to that space since it changed hands and we had a gift certificate for the restaurant that we wanted to use. The spa

My niece had her sons birthday party here and the food was very good. Their meatballs were so moist and tasty, fried eggplant/tomato/mozz stack was my favorite app and clam appetizer was also real good. I didnt care for their bruschetta it tasted l
Just average, better options around
The place seems better suited for larger parties. It's very noisy, service is a little slow, food is decent, but not anything special. Montclair has many outstanding restaurants, this is not one of them. Prices are on the higher side for what
Slow. Expensive. Disorganized.
Nothing wrong with the food or cocktails. Beet/carrot and fig salads were very good, clam appetizer very tasty. Veal chop parmesan, fish entree, zuppa di pesce all good. Our problem was with the service, which was very, very slow. They were obvi

Outstanding Italian Establishment

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Fresco da Franco Montclair at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Fresco da Franco Montclair page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FluffyStar64, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* FluffyStar64 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FluffyStar64 for any questions Peter may have as FluffyStar64 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FluffyStar64 now uses their connections at Fresco da Franco Montclair to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FluffyStar64 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FluffyStar64 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FluffyStar64's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Fresco da Franco Montclair!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
