Inspired by Global Flavors, Rooted in Wellness
Our journey began with a passion for fresh, nourishing meals made with quality ingredients. We focus on clean cooking methods and bold flavors to bring you a menu that fuels your body and mind.
Our Story: Where Healthy Meets Global Flavor
At A Lo Fresco, we believe that eating healthy doesn’t have to be boring. Located at 250 North City Drive, San Marcos, CA, we’re a unique spot where you can craft your own healthy bowl, burrito, or toast with flavors from around the world. From Greek and Mexican to Peruvian, Cuban, and Korean influences, our menu blends these global inspirations to create fresh, vibrant meals for every taste.
Our Roots: A Personal Journey to Healthier Living
Our story is personal. It starts with our mom, who lovingly cooked for us starting in 2005. While her meals were filled with love and tradition, we soon realized they didn’t always align with the healthy lifestyle we wanted to pursue. After our mother’s battle with cancer and our father’s passing, we knew it was time to rethink our food choices. This journey led us to embrace health-focused eating, and we wanted to share it with the world.
From Food Truck to Brick-and-Mortar
In 2016, we started with a food truck to bring our new approach to healthy eating to San Diego. By 2018, we opened A Lo Fresco’s brick-and-mortar restaurant to continue sharing our passion for nourishing, whole foods. We’re excited to offer a menu that supports vibrant living and helps our customers feel good inside and out.
Health-Focused Meals for Everyone
Our menu is designed to make healthy eating easy and delicious. Choose from customizable bowls, burritos, and toasts, each packed with fresh, global flavors. We also offer cold-pressed juices and protein smoothies for those looking to fuel their day with nourishing drinks. Whether you’re an athlete, a busy professional, or just someone looking for a wholesome meal, we’ve got you covered.
What Makes A Lo Fresco Special?
At A Lo Fresco, we focus on the health of our customers with every meal we prepare. We use only the freshest ingredients, opting for non-GMO produce and organic options wherever possible. We avoid seed oils and frying, choosing to cook with methods like cast-iron pans to preserve the nutrients in our dishes. Whether you’re vegan, gluten-free, or have other dietary preferences, we offer meals that fit your needs.
