The mains and entree were fantastic as was the wine and the general ambiance.. Unfortunately the the chocolate soufflé we had for dessert tasted like it came from a packet cake mix. All in all we really enjoyed our meal and our time at the restaurant we will be back one day only no desert this time

I love the traditional Italian flavours. There's a new Venitian cook book out now but why buy it when we have it all at our lips.

This is the second time I have been to Francesco's in the past couple of months - the first with my vegan family of five, and a few nights ago with a non-vegan mate. Fantastic on both occasions. I love the ambience of this place, and the service is great. Food is plentiful and delicious. My mate was so impressed that he even ordered a plant-based main course after sharing a plant-based platter and arancini with me for entree. I'm sure the food for non-vegans would be just as impressive. It's great to have such a high standard of restaurant that caters brilliantly for all types. Thank you Francesco and team!

The Venue was very atmospheric & the staff were friendly and the food was delicious! It was a bit too noisy inside to converse without shouting & there were no options for smaller serves of mains so I felt like there was a lot of food wastage. I was surprised that the venue were ready to close before midnight on a Friday night also.

Our first visit and we loved it. Fantastic options for vegans, vegetarians and coeliacs. Our risotto was cooked to perfection. We will go back as there are so many amazing dishes to try. The bonus for me was to meet Chef at the end of the evening. A great selection of wines and plenty of other alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. The wait staff were excellent and they paid particular attention to any allergies or dietary requests. If you only try one thing, you must try the Pane.
