When we got there and added our name to the list, we didn't have to wait long to be seated. It was quite cozy inside and they have an outdoor patio as well. My friends ordered a drink they saw their Instagram which was the Cucumber Watermelon Sangria. They both loved it, I opted for water since I drank a bit this weekend already lol. We ordered appetizers and individual pizzas. I'm a sucker for a brussels sprouts appetizer and had to try theirs. This will be a repeat order, all the flavors balance each other so well(sweet, salty, and that mustard glaze yum). My friends enjoyed this as well. My friend's ordered the zucchini fritte and they enjoyed that. I ordered my favorite, tried and true The Calabrian (I love hot honey on anything lol). My friends ordered the Garlic & Broccolini (which would be my second choice). They both enjoyed their pizzas, my friend and I shared a sliced with each other. I like the garlic and broccolini as well, I enjoy a white sauce based pizza at times(I love broccoli on pizza, huge garlic person lol). They ordered dessert and coffee, and they both loved the pistachio crème brûlée. Overall it was a great evening with friends, delicious food and atmosphere. The service was friendly from when we arrived to the end. I'll add it to my date night list for my husband and I.

I really wanted to like Apizza Regionale more than I did…read more We started with the meatballs, which were incredibly small and unfortunately very dry. The sauce, however, was very good and easily the best part of the dish. The Porkstore arancini was also disappointing. They lacked flavor, and the portion size was surprisingly small. I would have much preferred one traditional, full-sized arancini because even combined, I'm not sure everything on the plate amounted to one. The pizza was good and ultimately the saving grace of the meal, but it wasn't anything that blew me away. For the price, I expected a higher level of quality, particularly when it came to the ingredients. I've had considerably better pizza made with better ingredients for roughly the same price elsewhere, even if admittedly not in Syracuse. The restaurant itself is very attractive and has a great atmosphere, but the food simply didn't justify the price for me. I left feeling like much of Apizza Regionale's appeal comes from the lack of serious competition for this particular style of restaurant in Syracuse rather than the food standing out on its own. Overall, it just wasn't for me, and I don't see myself returning.

In town for my sister-in-law's wedding - she recommended this restaurant for an easy sit down…read morelunch, and it was fantastic! Service was so prompt and nice, and being able to order straight from your phone and pay/being able to walk away easily after was super convenient. I got the Meatball Riggie Turn Down (side) since I wasn't super hungry after traveling, and I definitely recommend this as a lunch portion - the side size was really filling and still pretty big. The meatball was incredible (and large) and the sauce of this pasta, while it had a little heat to it, was well seasoned and smooth. Great chill place with an awesome playlist of oldies music and the opportunity for indoor and outdoor scenic views.

A group of 12 of us came to Francesca's last night. We started outside in the beautiful patio area,…read moreand had to move inside near the end of the dinner due to rain. Moving inside was easy as they had a great table already set up in case of rain. I got the seafood risotto special. Because it was a special, the prices were not attached. If I knew it would've cost $42, I may have paused and not spent the money on it. However, I am glad I did not know the price and ended up getting it because it was the best dinner I have had in about a year. The fish was perfectly seasoned and complemented the risotto so well. The strawberries on it seemed like an odd choice, but the flavor combination was outrageous. It was extremely delicious. I got a summer risotto dish from Francesca's last year as well, it was also excellent. They do their flavor combinations so well. Overall, our group was extremely happy with our choices. The service was impeccable. I wish I remembered our server's name. He was engaging, patient, and had a great personality.

They could only get us a bar section table at 7:15. I explained that I have a condition where breathing the toxic air would be harmful, yet the manager kept telling me she is trying to accommodate me. It's not accommodating when you give me a table that I could have reserved myself because it was available. She did nothing for me and had a callous attitude towards my condition. She pretty much said take it or leave it. Nice!!!! Our server was nice but inattentive. Took 15 minutes to get water. The sauce with the bread was delicious. Some of the best I've had. The Arancini was ok. They use way too much breading and there's not enough sauce. It's supposed to be rice balls, not breading balls. My Chicken Parm was very tender but had no flavor. None. Needed more sauce. Pasta was very good. My wife had the Gorgonzola fillet medallions which were very rich ....to be expected. The portion was huge. She seemed to really enjoy it. There's enough leftover for another meal. In total, I was really put off by the callous attitude of my condition and how the manager pleaded with me that she was trying to accommodate me by giving me an open slot I could have reserved myself on open table. I pleaded with her about the condition, yet she didn't seem to care. Thank you!

I checked OpenTable for 6:30PM on a Wednesday night and it said there was nothing within 3-1/2 hours. I found this very odd and since I was on my own, I ventured on down anyway to see if I could score a spot at the bar, which I easily did because they were only 1/4 full and the bar only had 3 other people at it when I arrived. I believe the bartender's name was Justin and he was great... very friendly and helpful, as well as engaging. He constantly checked on me and discussed the menu and restaurant, as well as their offerings. I chose their All 'Amatriciana with their slightly breaded chicken breast on top. The chicken was so very good! The All 'Amatriciana itself was so bland. I was disappointed in how bland it was. There was no spice at all to it, so I asked for their crushed red pepper and ended up putting several spoonfuls on it - turns out their crushed red peppers are either old or stale, but they're definitely bland and useless, as they didn't add any spike to the flavor of this dish and if the chef used these to season this dish while making it, that would explain some of what it was so bland. I will say that their table bread was outstanding! It came with their whipped butter, seasoned with honey and parmesan and that combo was so good! Too bad I didn't order something else, like pizza, as this is what I initially saw in reviews that looked amazing. I'm sure they normally are great here, I just came on an off night.

The food was delicious, and so much to choose from! We had the Arancini balls to start, and they were delicious. We both tried the soups, and I adored the micro grilled cheese that topped the tomato bisque - SUCH a cute garnish! We recommend you get your steak "Jimmy style" because WOW, there is soooo much flavor! The shrimp scampi was also excellent. The large portions gave us some good leftovers. We had to finish with cannolis to-go, and we were so happy we did. Our server was very attentive, even as the place was filling up on a holiday evening! We can't wait to go back and try more of their menu.

Our apps of meatballs and calamari were good but when we got our red wine, it was freezing. Then we were waiting for at least a half an hour for our food. My sister was starting to worry about getting to her graduation despite us booking 2 hours ahead of her ceremony. When we received our food, all meals came except mine which was about 10 mins after everyone else. The best meals were the Chicken Riggies & Chicken Milanese. The Chicken Piccata was very heavy of Dijon and the Chicken Marsala tasted like Chicken Teriyaki; needless to say, neither dish tasted like its traditional description. Lastly, the Clam Provencal was void of flavor. Half of our party left as soon as I got my food and we paid the check so we weren't late to the ceremony, but then the rest of our party was asked to leave for another group. Sadly, it was different than what we were hoping for.
