Francesca's Intimo offers a warm and inviting atmosphere with helpful, attentive staff. The restaurant provides gluten-free options and is kid-friendly, making it suitable for families. The menu features delicious dishes such as seafood linguine, mussels, and redfish, along with a good selection of reasonably priced red wines. Tiramisu remains a popular dessert choice. Many guests enjoy dining outdoors on the patio, especially during pleasant weather, and appreciate the cozy neighborhood vibe. The artichoke appetizer is highly praised, and the pastas are cooked perfectly. The chef's linguine special is often recommended. Customers have highlighted the friendly staff and the extraordinary quality of the food. The indoor ambiance is beautiful, and outdoor dining is also available. Favorites include mussels and pasta, with some noting that arrabiata sauce can be a bit spicy for some. The service is generally attentive, though a few guests have mentioned occasional timing issues. The blueberry/rhubarb crumble dessert is tasty but sometimes lacks the expected crumble topping, featuring mainly blueberry compote and vanilla ice cream. The music could be more fitting, with a preference for dinner music or jazz to match the ambiance. The bathroom situation has been noted as needing improvement. Overall, Francesca's Intimo continues to be a highly recommended spot for flavorful Italian dishes and a charming dining experience.
