We eat there often and are never disappointed. The food is delicious and the service is very professional. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Additionally, I had a catered affair there for Chrismas Eve and it was wonderful. There were 19 people who are still raving about the food and service...which is so rewarding on a night that the restaurant was crowded with many groups celebrating.
Villa Francesco's is a very nice Italian restaurant and pizzeria. The menu is extensive and the prices are reasonable. This is a BYOB. In general, thr food was very good. The veal parm was excellent with just the right amount of sauce and cheese. The calamari was ok (a little underdone), but the sauce was excellent. The menu salads were large and flavorful. We did not have the included house salad. The included bread could was cold. We would have preferred it warmed. Tables are spaced well with white table linens and good napkins. The ceilings are high so it lacked some ambiance, but the room maintained a good temperature. Service was attentive and helpful. We liked that all of the entrees arrived at the table simultaneously. This appeared to be true for any size table.

Having lived in central NJ my whole life, I consider Villa Francesco’s to have the best Italian food around. We rarely eat at the restaurant anymore, so I cannot speak to the service and atmosphere strongly (my wife and I used to love to go sit outside before it became more common after COVID!) but the food is always good. It was almost a year before I had tried anything on the standard menu because their specials were always so amazing! Now, we order takeout and cater regularly. Everything is delicious. Our favorites are the shrimp & scallop di mare and eggplant parmigiana, but I have yet to order something that has not been a crowd pleaser. If you want high quality Italian food, this is the place to go.

Really. Really good food! Update....still really good food. They need a vegan menu, then I would go all the time. Actually they did have 1. And all you have to do is tell em you want clams casino but hold the clam. I took the shells home! Oh did I forget that the servers that took care of us Saturday night were just awesome. Actually everyone that works there were great. Thanks again. ?
I attended Henry Harbat’s funeral luncheon on Wed. They expected 50 people, 100 attended the luncheon. He was a well loved man. I want to comment on the extraordinary service and fabulous food. The chicken with pasta and the eggplant dish were absolutely wonderful.

I think this place is overlooked for slices and pies because it is the best pizza we have had in a long time. Definitely the best in a wide radius.
