User Reviews

First time here and it was amazing. Food was literally mouth watering. I had veal marsala and it was probably the best I ever had. It melted in my mouth. As for the atmosphere, they have 2 rooms. 1 side is more romantic with softer lighting. The other side is brighter and more vibrant with music videos playing. They also have outside dining and banquet rooms. Elegant location with excellent food if you favor Italian cuisine.

Today we celebrated the life of a very special man. This was a very emotional yet uplifting gathering. There could have been more help directing people with the seating. Also help with serving the food world help avoid standing in line for an extended period of time.

Franchesco’s has become “our” restaurant. 😊 We celebrate all of our special events here… and tonight we celebrated Valentine’s Day! 💜We knew it would be busy, but they opened all of the side rooms and gave everyone the attention they needed. 🌹A special surprise was the long stemmed rose that they gave each couple as they were seated. Another treat is the soothing sounds of the live piano playing. 🍽️ We have become a fan of the lamb lollipops, and I love the pistachio encrusted salmon with the carrot mouse! 😋 ⭐️Our server, Jocelyn, was working hard on such a busy night, and we appreciated her kind and calm manner. ➡️ If you are looking for a special place to become “your” restaurant, you can totally trust Franchesco’s to take good care of you!

Went to grab dinner with work colleagues. Bread was amazing and lasagna was okay. Waitress was rather timid and inattentive. She started friendly but seemed to be overwhelmed and too quiet to hear. Atmospheric was nice for a date, party, or other celebration.

Yosi our server made our Anniversary celebration extra special. Yosi was attentive, kind and friendly! Food, drinks and Ambiance were as wonderful as usual as well!

The best service in town! From the door… the hostess are beautiful clean looking and welcoming. The bartenders greet you even if you’re not sitting at the bar. Michelle, the owners daughter is amazing. The food is top notch!!! Try the sea bass!!!

Our server, Jared was outstanding. He was knowledgeable about the menu and very professional. Everything you would expect in a high end restaurant. Unfortunately the food was not as superior as our waiter. The steak was lacking flavor and the French onion soup fell flat. The garlic bread and butter were amazing, as were the mashed potatoes. Overall, it bit pricey for the food quality. But the service was top notch.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Franchesco's Ristorante on Christmas Eve, and was thoroughly impressed by every aspect of my experience. The service was top-notch, with the waitstaff being friendly, attentive, and efficient. But the real highlight of the evening was the food. I ordered the ribeye, and it was cooked to perfection - tender, juicy, and full of flavor. It was hands down one of the best ribeyes I've ever had. But the atmosphere was equally delightful. The restaurant was beautifully decorated, and there was a pianist providing live Christmas music that added a touch of sophistication to the evening. Overall, I can't recommend Franchesco's enough. The combination of great service, incredible food, and a lovely atmosphere made for a truly memorable dining experience
