Reviews for Francesco's in Woodland Park, NJ
DELISH! Prime table service! Always checking in on us, bringing us more bread, clearing the table quickly, etc. We also said a... prayer before eating and the servers were respectful in making sure not to interrupt. Their table bread and oil are phenomenal!I had to ask about buying some of the oil to take home and they let me! We had salad and tortellini soups to start, nocomplaints. For entree my guests had a chicken dish and eggplant rollatini which they said they loved. I got a panini which wasphenomenal (chicken, roasted red peppers, mozzarella and balsamic glaze). My only feedback on the panini was that the glazealthough tasted great seemed to be more of a thinner dressing maybe(?) I didn't get that thickness that you think of when youthink "glaze". We will definitely be returning, 100% Read more
Authentic Italian food. Good vibes and great service. Sangria was amazing along with the homemade fusilli pesto which was the... perfect serving size and perfectly cooked. Owner and staff made sure we were happy and comfortable and even made me extra sauceto take home with me. 5 stars. Read more
I’ve been ordering from here for years and they never disappoint. The food is always so delicious that I usually try to drink... the remaining sauce alone when the food is done. I would give 10 stars if it was possible. Read more
Most of the food was excellent! The fried calamari was disappointing, a bit tough. We were at a private party on the 2nd floor... and although the air was on and set low, it was pretty hot in the room. Can't imagine if there were more people and it was awarmer day Read more

I've come to dinner here several times, and every time, it has been a 5 star experience. The service and atmosphere is top... notch and I always look forward to coming here for a nice sit down dinner. A bar always makes a dinner nice, being you don'thave to limit yourself to bringing in a bottle of wine. Started the meal off with a gin and tonic which was quickly served and was accompanied by a basket of bread fresh out of the oven along with some olive oil or butter. Nothing beats the warm Arrabiatta bread dipped in olive oil. Ordered the Shrimp Arrabiatta (garlic, lemon, white wine sauce, red pepper flakes) as anappetizer that was phenomenal. Should have taken a picture before it was devoured. With the sauce that was left over, alsomade a great dip for the bread. Highly recommend. For dinner, ordered the Chicken Milanese (breaded cutlet, arugula, and freshmozzarella) and the Veal Sorrentino (Veal, prosciutto, eggplant and mozzarella.) Both meals were delicious and were fresh andtasty. Desert being served around us looked super tasty, but after filling up on bread, shrimp, and Main course, we werestuffed. Definitely a great place to visit if you looking for a great meal. The only downfall is being a bit older and notbringing my reading glasses everywhere I go, the menu is a struggle to read. Found myself, along with other patrons using thegood old cell phone light to figure out the menu. Had I brought my glasses, it would not be an issue and this is more on me. Just a reminder if you go, be sure to bring your readers to help with the menu. Will definitely be heading back in the future. Read more
Always consistent, never a disappointment! I have probably eaten here since its inception. Frank is an amazing host with... exceptional cuisine skills. Lunch or dinner top notch always. Thank you for feeding my family and I all these years. Read more
