Went here for a small family wedding dinner, decided just to stay in neighborhood, food was subpar quickly prepared and brought out, everything was rushed, before you can finish the apps they were bring out the main course could barely have time to have a conversation. Seems like they just wanted you in a out, spent a nice amount of money just to be rushed out, it was after wedding dinner you think for the amount of money being spend they would off a glass of wine on house. Desserts were terrible would not recommend this place if ur looking for good Italian food.

Wonderful as always their bread & cheese on the table is so welcoming n such a nice touch I had the Salmon cooked my special way with rosemary which was delicious and my husband had the Shrimp Parmigiana which he loved the Cocktails are always great and love to end the night with the Espresso Martinis If u would like something cooked differently then on the menu and they have the ingredients they will be more than happy to accommodate you The staff is wonderful and ALWAYS TREAT YOU LIKE FAMILY whether you are NEW or OLD it's a very WELCOMING PLACE the way restaurants use to be WONDERFUL FOOD WONDERFUL STAFF

When we first came in, I told the host my name twice. He did not even look me up in the reservations. Because the restaurant was quite full, without even asking about any seating preference, he led us all the way back to a musty back room with tables with a trap door that went to the basement. There was no one back there and we immediately told him that the room would not be appropriate. I can't believe people eat back there. Only after we declined, did he say that there was a table opening up in 15 minutes. We were fine with that and we were seated shortly in the lovely decorated main part of the restaurant. The food is southern italian cuisine, which is heavier than Tuscany dishes. The avocado salad was a bit mushy - they tried to accommodate me since I originally wanted the avocado stuffed with crab meat, which had mayonnaise which I do not eat. I guess they pre-made it. I asked for a simple salad with an avocado with just some olive oil and vinegar and it came out twice mushy. At the end of the day the service after we sat down was excellent, the drinks were great and the food was ok.

I highly recommend this restaurant! Food was 10/10, customer service was pleasant and my favorite part of my meal was the delicious house made tiramisu. The owner checked in on us and seemed genuinely friendly. Me and my partner had a pleasant and overall lovely experience.

We had another wonderful dinner at this gem of a restaurant. The service was fantastic as always, thank you Angel. We had the crab cakes as an appetizer from the daily special menu and they were tasty. I had Vitello Ai Porcini Con Salsa E Cognac and my wife Pollo Francese. Each entrée was accompanied with mixed vegetables and roasted potatoes. We both enjoyed our meal. My wife's entrée was not on the menu but as the menu states, if there's time they'll prepare it. We're looking forward to dining there again!

Terrible service! My wife has food allergies to cheese which we stated when we placed the order. I picked it up and asked the guy if there was any cheese on the pasta because my wife has an allergy, again he assured me there was not. 25 minutes to get home with traffic and sure enough there was grated cheese in the pasta. Thank goodness she noticed and didn’t eat it. We called and the guy was so rude and said they would not refund. I have been a customer for over 15 years, I will never go back or recommend again.

We loved this place! We drove by it many times but decided to stop by Friday night. The service was attentive, and the food was amazing! This will be a regular upscale date-night ristorante for us. Kudos to the staff and ownership.
We had another fabulous dinner at this gem of a restaurant. The service was superb as usual, thanks Mario!

I've been to Da'Franco & Tony many times over the years and they never disappoint. Not only is the food delicious the staff is wonderful and make you feel so welcomed. This wonderful little gem is a diamond in the rough. I highly recommend them.

The house chard was good, the food was delicious, except for my filet of the sole was dry and overcooked. My two guest said their entries were delicious. They had the gnocchi and the ravioli.
