Went back again for the Pesto Pizza and it was great!!! That brick oven gives it a great crust. Great toppings and a strawberry mango smoothie makes it the perfect lunch or dinner.

Driven past this place so many times and I finally stopped in. There is limited seating so I wouldn't recommend this place for groups. I ordered the vegan chicken salad sandwich. It was good, except for the raisins. The fries were delicious! I loved the pita bread!! They were busy and I think they could have used a bit more help--someone to take orders and bus the tables and then obviously kitchen help. I would definitely go back! (You can see my cousins house from the front door, so I don't have any excuses for not coming back.)

This was such an awesome place to stop with my family. I had the lentil vegan burger, which was really good, with a side salad that had fresh herbs in it. My husband had the gyro and said it was one of the best vegan meals he's ever had. We split a vegan greek pizza and my daughter had cheese pizza. Nice that they offer non-vegan pizzas as well. The service was really wonderful -- incredibly warm and thoughtful staff, and food came out quickly. Will definitely be back!

Food and service is amazing! Everything is fresh and at a great price point. Pizza is spot on! The fries are also super crispy and delicious with their sauce. Consistently 5/5 whenever we come!

Awesome spot! My friend's been raving about it and I finally had the chance to try. I had the Fresca salad and pesto pizza. Even though I'm a meat lover it was still great. The Fresca salad is full of fresh fruit chunks- strawberries, apples, pineapple, and cherry tomatoes. It was sweet and tangy makes a great summer salad. The pizza was awesome too! The dough is chewy and crunchy at the same time. It might be a bit oily because of the green peppers. It's a simple place and everything is prepared there in front of you. Definitely recommended.

My friend and I went here my birthday weekend for dinner, and it was such a cute little place ! The staff were very friendly and patient when we were looking over the menu. They had so many vegetarian options to choose from it took me a hot minute to find what I wanted. The gyro was calling my name and man if that wasn't the best calling ever ! It was absolutely to-die-for ! I've heard they get pretty busy here- so check them out when you got the chance !

Stopped by while attending a training and was pleasantly surprised by how wonderful everything was! Amazing options for everyone to find something to try. I got the lentil burger, crispi fries, and a local cherry ginger kombucha. Everything was delightful! The burger was unique and had great texture and flavor! The fries were absolutely crispi and seasoned to perfection. The kombucha was a surprise winner, since I'm normally a bit undecided on kombucha. This local fruit mix kombucha has won we over! There's seating inside and outside and the chef (owner?) was very welcoming and friendly. I will be stopping by whenever in the area to try some of the other options. Hope to try another kombucha too!

Unexpectedly good. While visiting Richmond we stopped by Fresca On Addison. When you first arrive you don't get a great impression, The restaurant has limited seating (but it does offer a couple of tables outdoors), so it might be well positioned for takeout delivery. But what makes Fresca special is the food. We tried a pizza and one of the sandwiches, each was around $10, and the portions were decent. Every bite was full of flavor, the sauce on the pizza was delicious, and the dough was perfectly balanced. All in all, Fresca does not deliver an upscale dining experience, but for the price, it offers an excellent experience, from price to, most importantly, the food. My Criteria 5 stars: The best food I have ever had, or an excellent option given the price. 4 stars: Good food, a restaurant I look forward to trying again. 3 stars: Good food, a restaurant that I am indifferent to. 2 stars: Below average experience, will not go again. 1 stars: This restaurant should be closed.

We all loved our food. We got * tacos (curry veg, seitan asada, and avocado) * Greek pizza * chicken salad sandwich * bbq seitan sandwich * fries and potato salad And Turkish delight and baklava I think the chicken salad was the star of the show, and the fries were really well-seasoned and delicious. You could tell the pitas were homemade-- super soft. It's in Carytown so if the weather is nice, it's a great spot to take a walk before or after your meal. They have about 5 tables inside and some out. Service was great. Although the sign and Yelp descriptor say vegetarian, he assured us everything was vegan. Food came out fast and seemed fresh. The ambiance could use a little work but the food more than makes up for it.
