Franco's Metro Restaurant, Bar & Pizza

Finally decided to visit Franco's for my birthday and I'm so mad at myself that it took me so long to finally come here. Best penne vodka I've ever tasted and the atmosphere is energetic yet calming at the same time. Franco's is easily my new favorite Italian restaurant. Definitely plan on coming back very soon.

Francos is always a great experience and I'm so appreciative of the gluten-free options. Gene always goes out of his way to try new offerings this time with gluten-free breadcrumbs. I had a delicious sole oreganata. When the teen boys choose the restaurant, you know it's gotta be a good place.

I was here with my family for my Birthday dinner on Sunday. I had the Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken. The pasta was undercooked. It was taken off my bill and I sincerely do appreciate that. My family goes here all the time and I know that is not normal. I will definitely come back. The calamari was outstanding and everyone loved their food. If you are in the area, I definitely recommend going here.

We arrived very early for our 7 PM reservation, as we were coming from LI and couldn't judge traffic. The young woman who greeted us couldn't have been nicer. As soon as a table was available, she seated us to wait for the other 4 members of our family. Everyone was pleased with their food. Pasta was cooked perfectly and my grandson devoured his meat balls. My shrimp oreganta was fresh and delicious. Cannoli for dessert were crispy as they should be. Our waiter was attentive and very personable. If you need a restaurant near the GW Bridge, try Francos!

Went for a quick dinner, simple Italian meal, had the seafood salad and holy cow!!!
Talk about a pleasant surprise, tipping my hat👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Kid-friendliness: Had the sweetest little princess with her family behind us. She was totally enjoying herself, so I would say that Franco’s is kid friendly

I ate here three times while I was working in NJ and it was fantastic every time. My friend had the pasta made in the cheese wheel one time and she loved it. I'm gluten free and there are choices, one night I spoke with the kitchen manager while he heard me asking about Gf and came over to offer suggestions which was great because I ended up having the most amazing pork chops that was on their specials. Definitely a great place to go and I'll go back if I'm working over there again. Ps the salad with the salami cheese wheels on top is phenomenal and I need that salad dressing recipe!

We called Franco’s and placed our delivery order at 5:45 pm. At 6:45, they called to tell me that something they said they had available at 5:45 was no longer available. At 7:30, I called to ask where our food was. The food arrived at almost 8:00.

This wasn’t through Grubhub. It was directly from Franco’s. The food is good, yes…but my dinner should not take two hours to be delivered.

Wonderful place with fantastic food. Many great options.my favorite, the chicken francese with artichokes, is the best Ive had even counting much more expensive restaraunts.

Great atmosphere for in house eating. Its usually busy for dinner and the bathroom always remain clean no matter how many people are there.

Several staff members have been there for 10+ years, which to me, seems like a testament to the wonderful management that Ive come to know over the years.

Been coming here for years, but I feel like the staff has changed and everything is so inconsistent. My last few visit was either, hair in my food, my order was forgotten and it comes out super late or my pizza is burnt and if you have to ask me if I want a new slice, then you already know it's burnt. It's unfortunately there aren't that many pizza places in the palisade park area. It's either Donna's or Here. I would love to go to Urban tomato all the time but parking is rough
