    EAT HERE! Classy without being snooty. Met a friend/colleague for lunch and went by the day before with a question about the reservation. A server named Destiny welcomed me and answered my question, assuring me a table would be ready when we needed it. I got there way too early on the day of our reservation, and the staff kindly gave me options for where I could wait. As for lunch - the food was DELISH, the vibe welcoming and easy, and the service was AWESOME! Destiny was attentive and friendly, a wonderful representative of the Francoli brand. She helped create the kind of experience that makes me want to go back. There are many, wonderful dining options in the Orange Plaza, and Francoli is definitely at the top of that list.

    Service was okay. Manager seemed rude to other staff and had to ask for our order to be taken. Food was great!

    As usual, excellent penne bolognese coupled with attentive service preceded by a cordial hostess. A very consistent Italian restaurant on all fronts. Thank you.

    The entree I ordered was supposed to be a creamy sauce with brandy and seafood over pasta. The sausce was more of a tomatoes base that was creamy at all and I tasted no brandy flavor or any flavor at all. It was very blandt tasting and was just warm not hot. The service wasnt that good either. We hardly saw our server and just didn’t seam motivated. He never came to check on us and took forever to take our order for drinks and the appetizer. The ambiance was nice and the salad was enjoyable, the bread was ok as well but could be more fresh. We only left 10% for the tip and we won’t be back.

    Outstanding in every way. Food was top shelf. We had oso buco and it was the best I have ever had. There are some 5 star Michelin establishments that would kill for their wine list. Several return visits are guaranteed...

    The food and services were excellent, and I will likely go again, though it pretty quickly became extremely noisy, and very hard to continue our conversation.
