What a beautiful restaurant, especially at Christmastime!! And, Oh, the tantalizing aroma of all the Italian food, bread, & desserts served here greets you, together with the chef statue, as you enter the front door!!
Francesco’s offers a marvelous array of dishes on their lunch menu. Very reasonable prices! Nice portions! The regular menu also has the most amazing menu items that are perfect for anyone craving scrumptious Italian food. You can’t go wrong!
The small Italian bread loaf that’s served with an out-of-this world balsamic vinegar sauce (O, so yummy!) makes my mouth water just to remember how delicious it tasted!! Soft-crusted bread, topped with melted butter & herbs. The sauce…!! They make it themselves right here, and you’ll probably walk of here with a container of it just like we did!
From the lunch plate $9 menu, my bestie ordered the highly-recommended Philly cheesesteak sandwich with fries. She thought it might be the best cheesesteak sandwich she’d ever eaten.
I ordered the lunch plate chicken parm that had marinara sauce on the chicken with Alfredo sauce over the angel hair beside it. Very delicious!!
Although we didn’t order desserts, I confess to taking time to “tour” the dessert counter. What a wealth of pure delightfulness!!! Look at my pictures to feast your eyes on the luscious cookies, cakes, & cheesecakes!!! And don’t forget the tiramisu!! It looks “to die for”!!
Do yourself a favor and take time to stop in for a meal at Francesco’s…for a business lunch, a romantic date, your birthday with family, or all by yourself just because!!❣️❣️

The Sunday Golfers enjoyed a wonderful lunch at Francesco’s Ristorante in Summerfield, FL. I had made a reservation for 11 people at noon, and as usual, my spouse and I arrived 30 minutes early to ensure everything was ready.
We were warmly greeted by Gaetano, the restaurant manager, who asked whether we preferred our table in the main dining room or off to the side. Since our group can be lively, I mentioned not wanting to disturb other guests. He assured me it wouldn’t be a problem. Although the table wasn’t yet set, Gaetano personally arranged it for us, even asking where I’d like the single guest to be seated. Because our group is made up of couples, I always request that pairs sit across from each other—it makes both conversation and billing easier.
The restaurant itself is beautiful, with artwork and wall colors that evoke the charm of Italy. Gaetano, originally from Sicily, clearly brings authenticity to the atmosphere.
He then introduced us to our server, Savannah, promising we were in good hands—and he was absolutely right. As each golfer arrived, Savannah promptly took drink orders, followed by appetizers, and then entrées. Service was attentive and well-paced, especially impressive for a group of 11.
As is my tradition, I ordered pizza to test the kitchen’s skill. Being someone who makes New Haven–style “apizza” at home, I hold restaurants to a high standard. Earlier, I had explained to Gaetano that I wanted a simple pie—just sauce, a touch of Pecorino Romano, and a well-charred crust with a solid undercarriage. He assured me it could be done and encouraged me to tell Savannah exactly how I wanted it. She listened carefully, and the result did not disappoint.
Every dish at the table was enjoyed, and Savannah’s service was excellent throughout. The timing of the entrées was smooth, even with such a large party.
In the end, Francesco’s delivered on every level—ambiance, service, and food. Bravo to Gaetano and Savannah for making our Sunday Golfers’ lunch such a success. Francesco’s has certainly earned a spot on our regular rotation, and you can expect to see us again.

Everything was absolutely amazing! From the atmosphere to the staff, best Italian restaurant I have been to in Florida!
You can tell the food is made from fresh ingredients. Their sauce was absolutely dynamite! I could literally just live off their fresh bread with balsamic dipping sauce!
If you are in the area you absolutely have to give this place a try. You will not regret it!

Been driving by for years, finally decided to stop in and give it a try, so glad we did! Ben was our server. He was absolutely phenomenal as well as the food! Food was hot and flavorful. The restaurant was clean and had zero chaos during Saturday dinner rush.

We celebrated my birthday on Wednesday, and I want to praise our waitress, Julie, for her wonderful service. While, our initial encounter with the Host was sketchy, she personally worked very hard to put that behind us. Kudos to Julie!
However, I must address the Host and his attitude. He told me over the phone, five minutes before we arrived, that they were ready for us (nothing was ready). When the reservation was made, a week earlier for 16 people, we asked to be seated in the front section of their large dining room. Hhe wanted to seat us in the back AND told us “we would need to wait for another party to finish before they could accommodate us”! What? Then, the tables in the front “wouldn’t fit together to seat 16”! What? Julie stepped in and arranged the tables and we didn’t need to stand around (16 of us) waiting! Thank you, Julie, for not allowing the Host to ruin our event!!!

Group of 5, for a Sunday afternoon, went at the perfect time!
Not Busy, and did not wait long to be greeted by our Server Savannah.
2 bar beverages and drinks poured with generous hand, were delivered, and bread was served..
The overall experience was delightful and price was fair for portions..
decor was already in holiday season and football on tv. NO MUSIC???
Hearing the dishes, conversations from the bar, and kitchen was all I would have changed about the whole thing!
Definitely will be back!!
Asking for Savannah again for sure!!!

Waitress was friendly and kind. Undercooked steaks. Chicken and pasta dishes were great tasting. Fresh bread and oil a plus. Nice atmosphere. Very busy location. Would recommend making a reservation if possible.

We had a lovely first-time experience at Francesco’s. The service was attentive and warm, and the food was absolutely delicious—authentic Italian flavor, beautifully presented, and truly satisfying. The ambiance made for a great dining experience overall.
That said, one major drawback stood out: neither of the restrooms had a baby-changing station. For families dining with young children, this can present a real inconvenience and makes the restaurant less accommodating for family-oriented groups or events. In today’s hospitality environment, a small change like this can make a big difference.
We’d definitely come back for the food and service, but we hope to see improvements in the family-friendliness of the facilities in the future.
