My friend and I arrived at South Lake Tahoe at the end of lunch time, but we did get to Frescana Mexican Bistro enough before closing to score the two flavorful tacos pictured here. The outdoor seating was lovely. The wait staff was welcoming and friendly. Next time Im up that way I will definitely stop by.

What a great experience. We were craving some Mexican inspired food and we found an amazing spot. The food was delicious and service was fast, but the presentation was top shelf. Atmosphere was cozy and fun.
