Bar Franco is a renowned restaurant that offers a wonderful dining experience. The staff is very friendly and welcoming, and the ambiance is fantastic, with a large open window that provides the best of both worlds - outside dining with inside benefits. The knowledgeable waiters are helpful in recommending the perfect wine and menu items.
The food at Bar Franco is truly fantastic. Diners can enjoy appetizers like ahi tuna tartare and watermelon salad, which are described as delicious. The sea scallops, risotto, and other entrees are also praised for their deliciousness, with nothing left on the plates. Desserts, such as espresso crème brûlée, flan, and chocolate flourless cake, are equally impressive.
The restaurant is described as a "hidden late night GEM" with a vibrant atmosphere, music, and people, comparable to lounges in Miami and Manhattan. The hostess ensures a welcoming and enjoyable experience for guests, with attention to detail and thoughtful touches. Bar Franco sets a high standard, offering a great ambiance, excellent service, and high-quality, delicious food.
The gnocchi and rigatoni dish, as well as the meatball appetizer, are praised for their presentation and taste. The marinara sauce on the eggplant rollatini is described as a balanced and tasty counterpoint to the filling. The service is impeccable, and the dining experience is enhanced by the open-air setting on a beautiful day. The restaurant also offers valet parking, making it a convenient choice.
