    The food was absolutely top-notch! When you pay premium prices, you should expect to get premium quality, which is what we got at Francobollo. Everything was delicious and prepared perfectly, from the bread to the amazing home-made desserts. Highly recommended for special occasions! Service was excellent as well, we really enjoyed our server.

    The service at Francobollo is impeccable! The staff is friendly, courteous, efficient and warm! I’ve been there twice and had the garbage salad both times as an appetizer and it does not disappoint! I ordered veal limone and it wasn’t as good as I had hoped. My hubby had chicken Parmesan and it was delicious and lots of it!! Our friends had a pasta dish which they loved as well! Highly recommend Francobollo! It’s a great local neighborhood restaurant without having to go downtown!

    The restaurant became full while we were dining and consequently the noise level became intolerable and luckily we had come to the end of our delicious meal and left!

    The food was prepared well But half of the main courses were cold when they were brought to the table As well, we asked for our salads to be lightly dressed But they were drenched in dressing

    Excellent service, and the decor was beautiful. We were made very welcome. The food was delicious… veal luminescent and the crispy portobello mushroom were a hit with our party. Desserts were also excellent!

    This restaurant has a nice warm atmosphere and the service is excellent. It's a spot we've enjoyed about 6 times in the past year and our meals this visit were not as good as what we've typically been served. The burrata salad and the warm mushroom salad (dinner special) were phenomenal. The duck confit (dinner special) was overcooked and the vitello a limone was very bland with little or no seasoning. Some capers would add some punch. Our guests had the veal parmesan and a pasta with ox tail bolognese (dinner special) - they didn't seem to be overly impressed. They should serve their entrees with more veggie side dishes - garlic sauteed rapini is too bitter.
