Wonderful experience, and great food! My friend and I started off with the fried calamari, and the dipping sauce options were amazing. I opted for the Braised Beef Pappardelle Pasta special and my friend got the Seafood Riggies. Both were extremely flavorful and filling. We ended with the Chocolate Cake. Which was delicious. Overall, the service was great, definitely going back. It’s definitely a place that’s worth visiting again and again.

If you want perfect Italian then this place is amazing! However, don’t bother making a reservation as they have a horrible time sticking to them. While accustomed to waiting a few additional minutes after a reservation time, my party of four had to wait 40 minutes after our scheduled time. The waiting area is small as is and we were not told about the fire pit until right before our table was ready so we were waiting out in the cold. Our food was spectacular and our waitress was phenomenal, the issue is the hostesses. They need additional training as they were not welcoming nor gave us any indication upon arrival the wait would be so long which is common courtesy. Meanwhile people were walking in and able to sit at the bar. Which is why my recommendation is to just go sit at the bar.

Service was excellent, extensive menu, outdoor patio is THE BEST! We enjoyed our meal.

PANDEMIC UPDATE: During the height of the pandemic, when health officials were strongly advocating the wearing of masks in public to prevent the spread of this life-threatening virus, we visited this restaurant. When I noticed that 10 out of their 12 employees were not wearing masks, I pointed this out to the manager. She said if I didn't feel comfortable, I should leave. This lack of concern for the health of her customers makes me wonder how clean the kitchen is. We haven't been back since. This is a loss because we always enjoyed the food here.

Visiting from out of town and I have to tell you this place was fabulous! Blown away by the exceptional service from Celeste and the food was delicious! Will definitely be back!
It used to be one of my favorite places. I can overlook the busy wait staff but what's with the fake Parmesan they send out already on the dishes? It doesn't even melt. Confused on the vibe, club music in the dining room? Would recommend for after work drinks only.
Francesca’s catered lunch for our office of 90 people. Celia delivered it on time and was friendly and helpful when ordering. It arrived hot and was so delicious! We will be ordering again!

I was getting directions to the area & typed in Francesca's Cucina as a landmark that I know. I lived with someone above this restaurant for a couple of months in 2019, so I am familiar with this section of North Salina Street. Francesca's has great Italian food.

Went here with my wife to celebrate our first month of marriage and we’re so glad we did! The food was delicious and the service was great! The bang bang calamari was amazing, along with the salmon brocolini! Definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a great date night or just want some great Italian food!
