Nice, quiet restaurant. Stopped in for lunch and tried the buffet. It was just ok. Nothing really wowed me that was on it. The best item was the buffalo chicken pizza. Friendly service and good people. However, midevel Italian food
The menu here is vast. We enjoyed the pasta and chicken parm. The spaghetti sauce was a sweet sauce. The service was exceptional. I love that they had Bluestone wines as we just finished doing a wine tasting there.
Stopped in for lunch and had an amazing time!! Sharon was so kind and personable and gave us great recommendations for what to enjoy for lunch! The steak and cheese was the best my husband has ever had. We will definitely be back!
I enjoyed the food, service and environment. A good country drive from 81 near JMU or other area attractions, but we'll with the trip. Hank made the experience that much better.
This restaurant has very good customer service along with very good food that was worth the amount of money I paid for it. I really did enjoy the interior decorations also along with the music and plenty of space in between tables. I would highly recommend this restaurant to people who live in Bridgewater Virginia and even outside of Bridgewater Virginia if they want to have good food along with a good time!
I had the pasta with fresh tomatoes, basil and pine nuts. My wife had the salmon with pasta. Everything was delicious, they also have a lunch buffet of salads, pizza and pastas.
We went for Sunday brunch. Most of our party got the buffet. So, once the waiter finally took our orders we were able to eat. The brunch buffet isn't huge but it is sufficient and everything tastes good. It consists of breakfast food, pizza, and salad. It wasn't very crowded when we started eating around 11:15 AM but was filling up by the time we left. Our waiter was overwhelmed and not friendly. All he had to do was a few refills (most of us got water so he gave us a pitcher), pick up plates, and bring out one order from the menu. The person who ordered off the menu waited so long for his food that he decided to just get something off the buffet and take his order to go. This was definitely the worst service I've had at Francesco's. I'm sure they are understaffed, but it was really bad. The waiter was tripping over chairs and banging into things and seemed angry to be working. I actually felt bad for him. He was just very unpleasant. Thankfully the food was good and we were able to have a nice family outing. The rest of the staff seemed friendly and welcoming.
Passing through for business and stopped in for lunch. Staff was great! Very friendly. Had the lunch buffet. Salad bar was clean and on point. Pasta and pizza was tasty. Couldn't stop. Will definitely go back.
