1st time trying Francescos. Pleasant surprise. Right off the staff was friendly and attentive. Food was very very good Wife ate Coconut Shrimp app and Linguine and Clams in a white Sauce. A huge plate and absolutely fantastic. I opted from the Stracciatella and Linguine Malafemmina. Again a huge plate and prepared to perfection. We have found a new restaurant to add to the list.thank you all

I was visiting my stepmom It's been 8 years since I've been to Francescos and always loved it. So we went there for dinner. I had their lamb. It was absolutely amazing medium rare. I had no problem sucking on the bones keeping them in my mouth lol. Even the white potatoes were grilled and so sweet. Had a slight balsamic vinegar and it was fabulous. My stepmom got the short ribs and you could cut them with your fork and super tasty. Can't go wrong at this place....

My first time to Francesco's. I had mussels in white wine. The dish was very good but the mussels were a little sandy. I have mussels at other restaurants with no sand. I had fusili with pesto and it was very good. The affogato dessert was very good too. I sat outside since the weather was very good. I would have given 5 stars except for the sandy mussels.
