Reviews for Franchesco's Ristorante in Rockford, IL
Ordered food for pick up. The order was ready when we arrived. So that was good. The food was only ok. The tiramisu was... moldy. The girl pulled it from the fridge next to the carry out window. Pretty disappointing to receive a moldy item, as thisis supposed to be a fine dining establishment and there should more attention to detail than this. They should also label ordate items and toss after so many days. Read more
Fantastic establishment. The food is amazing, the dining area is very intimate and calming, and the other side "Benny's" is more... upbeat casual. They have live music inside and outside depending on the time of year. They also have great selections of beer,wine, and liquor to choose from including some locals like Pig Minds! If you like oysters, you have to try their Rockefeller,they are delicious, as everything else I personally have tried. Read more
This restaurant doesn't need no intro. When you walk in at Franchesco's, Benny will welcome you with open arms like your family... to him. Amazingly beautiful restaurant that you can't take your eyes on. The food is scrumptiously awesome. Their pizza isfantastic. Stop at Franchesco's. You can't go wrong. Read more

Good brunch. Food was solid, but lacking some vibrancy and texture. Venue was very luxurious. You can tell they host weddings... here. Read more
This is a very fancy place. Everything on the menu looked great and my pasta was simply delicious! The owner came to our table... and said welcome as well. Definitely recommend it! Read more
We celebrated our wedding anniversary here. The hostess could not find us a booth. Owner / Manager Benny came to our table... immediately after being seated, and moved us to an excellent booth. We enjoyed the meal very much. From the appetizer (LambLollipops) to the Desert (Tiramisu) everything was very good. The service was excellent. I would drive from Chicago to have ameal here.

Everything was outstanding. Cocktails and lovely breads to start. We ordered Oysters Rockefeller, Lamb Lollipops, French... Onion soup, Lobster Bisque, Ceasars Salad, Tuna Tower, Delmonico Ribeye (with the world's best mashed potatoes), SeafoodRisotto, Shrimp and linguine. The birthday girl (86) was given a Sundae with sparklers. The pianist played HB. The entirerestaurant applauded. She said it was her best birthday yet. Many thanks to the awesome staff!!! Read more
