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.
