    This is the second time we went to Francesc's for our aniversery. We were excted. This experience was far from good. Food quality is good. We couldn't complain. Service was far from good. It wasn't busy and it took an hour for our food. We tried to present an Entertainment Book coupon and we were told they don't take it after a certain hour. That's a lot of BS! There was no fne print in the Entertainment book page saying this. Guess this was a way for the restauraunt to rip off is patrons. This is the last time we go here. To bad, because it was close to home and the is good.

    My family has been coming to this restaurant for years. As far as Italian food goes, this place is the real deal. The restaurant is not very large, but anytime I have gone I never had to wait for a table. I read from another review that you can only come here by reservation only but that's not true. It's adorable and warm and cozy. There's family pictures of Big frank and his son all over the walls and they even have family photo books full of pictures from Italy. Now on to the service and food.. The service is always great. The waitresses are friendly and one of the franks is always there. Last time I went, I went with my mom and dad for lunch. My dad ALWAYS orders the seafood Americana. The entree is not on the lunch menu but frank happily made the meal for my dad without my dad even asking. We started off with the crab and feta triangles as an appetizer. Flaky triangles with real crab and a delicious feta cheese sauce. So good! We also asked if we could have bread and salad even though they are typically served with dinner - they had no problem doing so for us. The bread is amazing and soft with a crusty top. The salad is awesome as well. For my entree, I had the chicken portabella. Thinly sliced portabella mushrooms on top of baked chicken breast, topped with melted cheese. The red tomato sauce is incredible and they serve the lunch portion with a hefty amount of linguini. So amazing. Although we were all full, you cannot come to Francesco's without having their cannoli. It's amazing. The filling is incredible. Francesco's is perfect. The location is not ideal but once you get over that, you will want to return , trust me!

    We had our son's rehearsal dinner at Francesco's a few weeks ago and it was AWESOME! Frank Jr, the owner's son, was wonderful to work with. He was so nice every time I called, and the evening was absolutely perfect! The food was delicious, the servers were so nice, and we ended the evening with a complimentary toast with Francesco at the bar. I highly recommend the Veal Parmesan and the Shrimp Alfredo - we've had both several times and they're so good that we haven't tried anything else! This is a hidden gem in Jefferson - try it and you will love it!

    This place has REAL Italian food. Its a small place on Route 51 that many drive by and not many know about. From my understanding, they are reservation only, and for good reason. Every time I eat there, there are only a couple parties seated in a tiny dining room, but the service is flawless. The waiters and waitresses provide excellent service and the food is just amazing. I never met or saw the chef, but I'm sure he takes a lot of pride in his work. My personal favorite is the Carbonara - I don't think it gets any better. If you are expecting Americanized Italian food along the lines of the Olive Garden, this place might not be for you. This is real Italian cooking and I'm never disappointed. Its worth the price and I try to get reservations every time I come back to Pittsburgh.

    The owner (big Frank) came the USA when he was 12 after his father died and the food reflects this. The huge home-made beef ravioli are an absolute treat ($13 with salad and bread) as are most of the entrees. Prices for the specials tend to push $20, but most are very good. The homemade Tiramisu is heaven on a plate with layers of marscapone that melt in you mouth. The house salad is a nice mixture of greens with their signature balsamic vinaigrette and very good. They do some interesting sides like spaghetti squash in the fall or melon soup in the summer. The wine is a bit pricey by the glass, but my biggest gripe is that they aren't very accommodating of allergies so if you have a soy allergy and cannot eat margarine or vegetable oil and ask for them to cook your entree with butter or pure olive oil, you may be out of luck depending on the mood of the staff. Otherwise, Buon Appetito!

Italian Cuisine

The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.

Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.

If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.
