This joint was great! Salads,, clams, stuffed mushrooms w crab meat to start were great. Main courses we all had were large portioned and tasty!

My wife and I tried this restaurant just for a night out. We recommend it highly. The food and service were excellent. It's family run and only a year old. There is a bar side and a dinner side. Both have tables set up but you want to be seated on the dinner side. We will definitely be back for a nice casual dinner.

Not a big reviewer but I had to acknowledge this place. Everything was on point and excellent. The service, atmosphere and most importantly the food was amazing. Will return in the very near future.

The reviews were pretty good and I like to support independent businesses so I gave F&G try. The food came quickly but wasn't really hot (but that is to be expected with delivery so no knock on them about temperature. I do have an issue with the following - ordered a pizza that was barely cooked and the toppings were really sparse. Second issue was a chicken marsala dish that I asked to change out the potatoes for pasta - - which they did not do. Not a huge deal but it means they do not read their orders very well. I will likely try them again but eat-in to see if the first time was a fluke.

Really enjoyed our dinner tonight. Had seafood on pasta that was enough for two and great calamari. Loved that we could hear each other talking as well. Very attentive staff as well.

Would have been 5 stars if the crab had less shells in the salad. Great space, very pleasant staff, and other dishes were very good.

Everything was absolutely delicious from start to finish. Will be back soon! They have live music every other Saturday at 8pm

Loved the welcoming, neighborhood vibe and the huge portions of authentic Italian food. Highly recommend the Chicken Parmesan and the Shrimp Scampi. We'll definitely be back to try more!

We tried this restaurant at the spur of the moment since it was local to our house. We ordered three takeout meals, two of which were gluten free and one pasta. All I can say is WOW!! The food was awesome and the staff was friendly and professional. The prices were more than competitive and the restaurant was very clean as well. Overall this restaurant has found a steady customer at least on a weekly basis. What a find!!!
Read good reviews so figured we would give it a try. We were in the mood for Italian. Place was empty on a Saturday night which wasn't a great sign. Service was fine except our waitress said complimentary bruschetta would be included - which we never received. The side Caesar salad that came with the entree was the highlight of the meal. At one point we even asked about a side of bread (hoping it would refresh our waitresses memory about the bruschetta) - we were told they don't provide bread unless requested... ok.. maybe ask diners about bread? Just an opinion.... Still no bruschetta though... Entrees came out in reasonable time. I ordered the chicken Marsala - the sauce was so unbelievably bland and watery - absolutely tasteless. Incredibly disappointing. My Dad ordered the chicken picatta and he also was shocked at how bland the sauce was. All in all a nice place with decent service, but extremely forgettable food. Still waiting for the bruschetta....

Franco and Giuseppe has an Italian Supper Club sensibility. Very traditional Italian dishes featuring choices of linguini, cappellini or rigatoni. Sinatra, Martin, Torme with some classic jazz like Miles Davis play on the overhead speakers like a soundtrack from Goodfellas. Wood floors and white lattice are the general decor. Tables with white tablecloths and fresh flowers. Dinner gets complimentary bruschetta and a bottle of water with an attached stopper. Post Covid sees the restaurant crowded and possibly understaffed given a 7 minutes wait at reception but erring on understanding. Likewise a long wait for dinner but a gratis glass of wine and full understanding. The chicken parmigiana was very good with a meals worth of rigatoni red sauce. Went off menu and asked to drop tortellini for linguine in blush sauce....delicious. The calamari appetizer was lightly breaded and fried with marinara and blush sauce for dipping was good, needing more salt. Dinner comes with a salad either house or Caesar. We went Caesar which is safe lacking anchovies or cheese perfect for my 17 yo daughter who wants neither. Bland for those liking a full bodied Caesar. Espresso to wrap. Lemon peels included. Overall I'd go back.

I had a five star experience here on 4/21. I am a foodie. The service was exceptional.

The service was terrific as was the food. I loved my Caesar Salad that came with the entree’ and substitution for a side of pasta instead of potatoes was met with a smile, not a roll of eyes. Loved the decor and ambiance too.
