   Our reservation was accepted for Easter Sunday and we went to the restaurant and they were closed.

   Good restaurant with good food. Oso buco is great. Service could be a bit better. Slow to take order. Have to ask for water refill. Never received it. They are very picky about people standing at the bar if there are no seats.

   We were brought the wrong meal. We ended up just keeping it because of the time it would take to re-cook. However, disappointed there was no additional follow up or acknowledgement of the mistake. Nothing was done or offered by the restaurant.

   Pasta was salty and too much pepper! Carpaccio had too much lemon; we should be the ones putting lemon in our food…

   It has been awhile since we have been here but based on tonight’s service and food we will be back shortly. This really is the best representation of a restaurant you would find in Italy right here in Orange County. Best Osso Bucco and Branzino in a long time. Can’t wait to go back.

   The Francoli experience has always been amazing to me and my wife. We came today to celebrate our marriage after we went to the OC recorder for our marriage certificate and ceremony. We’ll be officially celebrating in Verona, Italy as that’s where my wife is from. The food is always 10/10 and the staff are as friendly as can be. I always recommend Francoli to anyone seeking the authentic Italian cuisine experience

    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.
