We really enjoyed our dinner here. With 5 kids in tow we were quickly seated and food arrived swiftly. Everyone was delighted. The sangria is delicious! Highly recommend. Also enjoyed the butternut squash ravioli with mushrooms and sausage–a triumph with such lovely, delicate flavors. Several Italian desserts and wines to complement your meal are available as well.

Wow! We decided on this restaurant impromptu, pulled up and literally walked into what felt like our family restaurant. Our server was kind, thorough, and super attentive. And the food was AMAZING. Everything was fresh, authentic and seasoned to perfection! My pics don’t do the food justice! We ordered what was recommended and I’m so glad we did. I asked for an aperol spritz during the lunch hour where Prosecco is not sold by the glass and the server went out of his way to make it happen for me. Surprise, surprise it was amazing! Thank you Ense for the service and hats off to the chef! We’ll be back with friends soon.

È eccezionale!
FRANCESCO’S IS AMAZING!
When we pulled up, I was thrown off a bit because it says pizzeria on the sign. I dislike pizza & was looking for more of an upscale dining experience.
I GOT EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!!
The location felt like being in Nonna’s kitchen. So much care and attention went into the preparation of the food & service.
I started with the mussels & they were so good that we ordered a 2nd. We had the chicken marsala, sogno cremosa, pasta cabanaro
& 1 other dish I cannot recall.
There is picture of the dessert tray, but we ordered the carrot cake & a lemon raspberry cake not seen (they also dont show the cannolis on the tray). They both were great….BUT THAT LEMON RASPBERRY CAKE WAS DEVINE!

Absolutely incredible experience! This Italian restaurant serves some of the most authentic, flavorful food we’ve had outside of Italy. Every dish tasted fresh, perfectly seasoned, and clearly made with love and tradition.
The staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we walked in. The atmosphere is cozy yet upscale — perfect for a special night out or a relaxed family dinner.
What truly set the evening apart was our waiter, the chef’s son, who went out of his way to make us feel like family. That personal touch meant so much and turned a great meal into a truly memorable experience.
We will definitely be returning. Highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine and outstanding service!

Truly an awesome experience. Family owned and you could tell! Everyone there was putting out a great experience. Food was exceptional and so glad it was recommended to us! The bruschetta was incredible! Took me back to my childhood and my buddy’s Italian mother’s cooking! Definitely must eat here! Enes (I believe that’s right if not I’m sorry!) was exceptional. I thought he was an owner with the care and attention he gave us. Truly someone who loves his job and made us feel special. Also the woman host and co-server was so positive and friendly. We LOVED our experience here!

We’re from Pennsylvania, about an hour between Philly and New York, and were in Williamsburg for work when we stumbled upon this incredible Sicilian restaurant. I can honestly say I’ve never had such amazing food in my life. Everything — from the fresh, handmade pasta to the perfectly paired wine and out-of-this-world desserts — was A++++. The flavors were authentic, vibrant, and unforgettable.
The service was equally impressive — warm, attentive, and truly top-notch. Every detail was perfect, and it made the whole experience feel special. If you’re anywhere near the area, do yourself a favor and go. I highly, highly recommend it! I promise you won’t regret it!

Wow. A real hidden gem! Was expecting a strip mall Italian restaurant but was amazed at the interior tastefully decorated and a menu that had a selection of real Italian dishes. Our waiter, Enes, was THE BEST. Absolutely excellent customer service we have had in a very long time. The dish proportions were spot on and the wine added to our experience. Paying a little more for excellent food was well worth it!

It’s absolutely amazing. The servers make you feel like family. The food taste like mom (or dad) made it. The atmosphere just brings it all together. 10/10 would recommend. I just hope I can find another reason to visit Virginia just so I can come back here!

Let me start by saying it was Amazing! We are from out of town and did not know what to expect. Everything we ordered was so good. We were a group of 8 and love it here. The apps were good, the wine was good, the food was good, and the service! It felt family owned which is what you want from Italian. Truly an excellent experience. Plenty of parking out front.
