Francesca’s Pizzeria & Restaurant

I had the pleasure of attending the HV Business Link event at Francesca’s Pizzeria & Restaurant, and let me tell you — Manny absolutely crushed it! The food wasn’t just good; it was unforgettable.

From the perfectly sauced wings (every flavor was a knockout) to the warm, buttery garlic knots that melted in your mouth, every bite showed the kind of passion and pride you only find in a family-run spot. The attention to detail was next level — crisp celery, homemade sauces, fresh ingredients, and presentation that could rival a five-star restaurant.

Manny didn’t just feed us; he hosted us — with genuine hospitality, great energy, and the kind of warmth that makes you feel like you’re part of the Francesca’s family. You can taste the love in everything coming out of that kitchen.

If you haven’t been to Francesca’s yet, do yourself a favor and go. Whether it’s pizza, wings, or pasta — this place is a masterclass in comfort food done right. Thank you, Manny, for setting the bar high and reminding us what great food and great people are all about.

I attended a networking event at Francesca’s tonight, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. I’ve been here before, but tonight reminded me why I keep coming back.

The staff was incredibly attentive and welcoming, even with a full event happening. The food was absolutely delicious — we had an assortment of wings, and every flavor was spot-on. And the garlic knots… I’m super picky about garlic knots, and these were perfect. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, well-seasoned, and paired with a sauce that actually had flavor. (So many places miss that!)

The atmosphere was great, the event flowed smoothly, and everything tasted amazing. Highly recommend Francesca’s for both casual meals and gatherings — they truly deliver every time.

Always love their food. Wish the fried calamari was a bigger portion, but with everything being so expensive these days it's understandable.

The fried calamari got smaller in portion and flavor. The Penne-ala-vodka, same scenario, the large pie, very different to the previous occasions I got this. This would be the last time I would patronize Francesca's. Its sad to see a restaurant decline by sacrificing quality over profit. I would pay the higher price for quality.

It’s been a while since I’ve had a great slice. I’m a city girl, lived in Brooklyn for years before buying up this way and I have to say, I’m impressed. Met at this spot with some fellow business women for some dinner. Bought a slice for my little one and took a bite and, yes!!

I ordered some dinner for myself and my family to go but if pizza is a sign on how good the food will be, I’m super excited for it!

Highly recommend!

Good pizza! Clean and stocked. Bathroom was very clean. Server was friendly. A little greasy, ask for extra napkins. They have a rare 25 cent bubble gum machine
