The food and service were great. And they have the restaurant divided into smaller rooms which lessens the noise level. Highly recommend.

We are regulars at Francesca’s. Love the food and wine selection is best in town. Saw different staff tonight. Paully was great, as well as the young host Stefan. Salmon was undercooked and had to send back , but came back delicious.
