    The staff kept on tripping to the legs by of our side chair. It was extremely annoying. Our table moved by the tripping and I was nervous they would spill the food over us.

    An eating experience is unique to each client. You order what you like. We are repeat customers and every we hace ordered is great. The best experience is when we asked the waiter if 2 could eat from one fish, and he said yes. Honesty over a higher bill. That you can't beat !!!

    We had a wonderful experience dining at Francesco last night. Our cocktails were made to perfection (Moscow mule and Pisco sour). We ordered ceviche for appetizer in 3 different sauces. Wonderful! main entree were a lobster with risotto and the corvina in cognac. Amazing tastes! We had no room for dessert but will come back to try some other time. Our waitress was very professional and knew the details of each dish. She also recommended an albarino that was really nice with our meals. Glad that we selected this restaurant, as we were celebrating my wife birthday and she was very happy :-)

    We had a wonderful dining experience at Francesco's. My family loves Peruvian food and we all seriously enjoyed our dishes. The food is amazing. Our waitress Guadalupe was extremely professional, attentive and friendly. We had a friend along who had never tried Peruvian cuisine, and Guadalupe beautifully explained each dish we ordered. The restaurant inside is very elegant. Tha cocktails were wonderful as well.

    We were repeat visitors at the old Francesco from 2008 until it closed; our experience at the new Francesco was everything we expected: great ambiance, staff who were very knowledgeable about the menu, attention without intrusion and of course an excellent culinary experience! For appetizers we had the ceviche, which was easily the best we've had anywhere and the Tiradito Francesco was delicious. We highly recommend you visit this restaurant!

    We were fans of the old Francesco and this latest version doesn't disappoint . We received a friendly welcome and the staff were excellent and knowledgeable about the menu and wine list. The food was excellent, the octopus was one of the best I have tried and the ceviche was delicious as expected. All in all, a great experience. The new Francesco is even better than the original and is a welcome addition to "The Mile"
