It has been a while since I posted a food review, but this place inspired me to start again. I found this place on one of my many work trips and was not disappointed. I am fairly picky about my Italian food, but this place hit the mark. For starters, they have one of the best house red wine vinegrettes I have tasted in a long time. It was good enough that I finished the remaining dressing with the bread. The crab filled stuffed mushrooms were covered in a tomato-basil cream sauce and I could not decide which was better: the sauce or the tender stuffed mushrooms under neath it. For my main dish, I had the good old standard Chicken Parmesan and was not disappointed. The chicken was well seasoned, crispy and coated in a rich marinara and a healthy done of provolone. It was served with a mountain of spaghetti dressed in a robust marinara with small chunks of vegetables that gave it the perfect blend of taste and texture. The service was excellent, friendly and humeours. My drink was never less than half full and I was checked on throughout the meal. There was a quiet, relaxed atmosphere with subtle music playing overhead that made one feel right at home. Overall it was a great experience. read more

This place is the best place around a three state area to get homemade Italian food. The chef is really nice he's actually in the restaurant and the waitresses are excellent. Went there on March 19th 2026 the whitehead spinach Alfredo white wine sauce manicott it was lickable to the bottom of the bowl. I had what was called Francisco's special. It included artichoke sausage chicken ham black olives onion grilled tomatoes grilled peppers on top of a pile of homemade spaghetti. They're very reasonable on their price and it's a quaint little restaurant. I would highly recommend it if you're in the area find them and go if I could give 10 stars I would it read more

My son and I stopped here and were greeted by Amanda! She was amazing! The bread before the meal was great! My son ate three baskets full. We ordered a pepperoni pizza (his favorite) and it was tasty! The crust was delicious. All the food I saw coming out looked amazing! read more

The staff is definitely friendly. They don't sell beer and had no red wine. The bread with the olive oil and garlic was delicious! I forgot to take pictures but we had the shrimp Florentino, pasta with meat sauce and the sampler. The salads are nice size and so good. Cute restaurant on the inside. Definitely would recommend! read more

Did a take out pizza order. Pick up was pretty non-friendly. We also ordered two side salads with the house dressing. I would rate these a four. I love that old school tomato-based dressing. Pizza crust was good. Sauce had a weird sweetness. We didn't finish it. This is a three star rating because The Hubs and a co-worker went there for lunch and had the seafood risotto and a stromboli and liked both. Will give them another try. And, maybe dine in. read more

Ok first off the food was not good. Cold by the time they brought it out and I got to my car. Pizza was burnt. Second why is the staff fighting and cursing at each other. If employees are this dissatisfied fine but the complaints should not happen within hearing of customers. Can't say that I will be returning in the future. read more

First time visit! Want to try other dishes. We shared pizza supreme and Caesar salad. Both were very good, I prefer a lighter hand on the salad dressing but my husband loved it( creamy dressing). Pizza was very light thin crust which was excellent! Service was very good, prompt and accommodating. Definitely will go back! Quiet also, so we could talk! read more

Horrible. The chicken is bagged chicken (disgusting) and the Alfredo was so runny it didn't stay on the noodles. I'd rather eat at Olive Garden (and that's saying a lot). I can't believe this is that bad and people rate this as good? Bread was rock hard and clearly not fresh. Just gross. read more

Service wonderful, food tasted good and nice atmosphere. However, after 30 min drive home, boyfriend and I both violently I'll with stomach issues. Both had cream based sauces and I gave him half of my veal. It was a miserable night. Not saying I wouldn't try again, but it will definitely be a while and different order. read more

The lobster ravioli is so freaking good there was something else I had that was absolutely amazing there too I just can't think of the name of it (may have been the caviar) place was clean and the service was great read more

Food is great and they are extremely service oriented and helpful. Location is great as well

We wanted to try a local restaurant and were hoping for good family recipes. Unfortunately, this place falls short for the food quality. The lasagna tasted similar to a grocery store quality frozen dinner, and I really wanted to like the food. The service was good with one lady hosting, serving, and cleaning the tables. She was friendly and courteous. The place is small and played 50s and 60s music. Overall, it was mostly quiet. The restroom is in need a good deep clean. read more

I had heard that they had excellent hand-tossed pizza. They were right. Best real pizza ever!

I love the pizza at this place. The dough has a great texture, and the toppings are fresh and flavorful. The balance of flavors makes it a pizza I could eat again and again. read more

Absolutely outstanding. Authentic Italian experience! Tony went out of his way to give me 18m daughter extra food and drawing stuff to keep her happy! Food was 10/10!!! read more

Ordered a 16 ounce ribeye asked for rare when it came out cut it open. It was medium rare at best. It was more like medium well zero out of five stars if you can't cook a steak, don't put it on your menu. read more

Very nice atmosphere with accommodating staff. These small places always seem better to me than the big chains. It's just more like sitting in your own house and not as loud as those big chains. read more

If I could leave no stars I would. Could be the worst Italian food I've ever had anywhere in the country. The "Italian dressing" for the salad tasted like shrimp sauce. The white wine sauce tasted like the white nacho cheese sauce from a sports stadium watered down and added pepper. When I sent the pasta dish back no substitute was offered until the rest of dinner table had finished. Upon checking out I was told by the manager that my opinion was wrong and his food was fine. I told him I didn't like it. But he still insisted on charging me. NEVER COME HERE. The food is horrible and the service is worse read more

Hit or miss. Ordered a glass of white wine and it was off, so asked for a Chianti. Not a big deal. The watiress was miffed though. Ordered the pasta sampler and when it arrived it was less than appetizing,. I was going to push through and try it but the waitress asked me if there was an issue. I said yes. I was then hit with. "did you read the decription on the menu?" Long story short she was a B**** and I ordered a calzone. it was lesser than I could get at pizza hut. Please spend your money at Da Vinci. Much better quality and service. read more

We were pleasantly surprised with our diner. Excellent service, the food was prompt and good portions. From the moment I entered the restaurant I felt at home with a wonderful smell of garlic and bread. We will continue to go back. read more

Absolutely the BEST experience tonight. Perfect service. Delicious food. Quiet environment. The homemade garlic knots and sauce was added bonus. We ordered the bruschetta, chicken parmigiana, & spaghetti special that came w/ side salads. Everything was fresh, hot, homemade, & made to order. The prices are beyond reasonable (around $13 per person) and the portions are full. read more

Never disappointed in the service or food. From pasta dishes to pizza to garlic knots with the flavorful garlic basil oil dipping sauce oh and don't forget trying their salad with any of their dressings. read more

We eat at places all over the country and I have never had Italian like this. I felt like it was authentic made with love food. The oil, garlic, tomato mix with their handmade bread was INCREDIBLE!!! My hubby had the spaghetti and meat balls and couldn't get over the flavor and I had the chicken risotto. Every bite I tasted more ingredients. Delicious!!! read more

I reviewed this place about 6 years ago and was in again recently. Wanted to update. The food is still excellent quality with great flavors. Service was top notch and very professional. The ambiance is that of a fine dining establishment but in a small location and friendly to casual diner's. Always try to stop when we are in the area but unfortunately it is only about once a year. Always a good experience and great food. read more

An orgiastic treat! This was one of the best meals I've ever experienced. The shrimp risotto was rich, creamy, cheesy, and the seasonings were amazing. Heck, I'd come here for the bread and oil alone! The pull-apart texture was soft, and the oil flavor was amazing. The dish presentation was beautiful. The staff was friendly and attentive. Don't miss out on this dining gem in Claremore. read more

PIZZA. We order an XL pepperoni pizza with breadsticks and salad to go for the family about once a week. The pizza is the best in town and it feeds our family. We have done this for years and it's the go to option for when we don't have time to cook or go out to eat. The owner is usually at the register and is always nice. By now, we know each other by name. It doesn't matter how busy the restaurant is, and it's always busy, our food never takes longer the 20 or 30 minutes from the time I call it in. You can get a punch card and after awhile, get a free pizza. Give it a try! read more

Decided to give this place a try. I wanted to love this place but it just fell short. The food is good but not great. There is definitely better Italian food to choose from. I'm hoping I caught the waitress on a bad day because she was not friendly at all. read more

I stopped here with my mother on our drive from Arizona to Massachusetts. The food was amazing and the staff were very friendly. We really enjoyed our visit there and wish we could go back if we lived closer! read more

Ya'll never going to Olive Garden again. My friends tried this place a few weeks ago and couldn't stop talking about the food, now I know why. The food came out at the best timing, every time we go to Olive Garden I'm waiting FOREVER. The dipping sauce is not just your ordinary olive oil, it comes with garlic, cheese, onions, capers, tomatoes and other seasonings. You'll want to put it on everything! The pasta was cooked and both sauces were delicious. We will definitely be going back to try everything else on the menu. read more

This is my go-to Italian restaurant! It's a hidden gem in this little town for sure. Every time we come here the food is excellent and the owners are the sweetest couple you'll ever meet. They offer classic Italian dishes along with steak, catfish, and burgers for those who don't like Italian food. With every meal you get complimentary fresh baked bread. The house dressing for the salad is the best and you can have as much as you'd like for your meal. The spaghetti with mushrooms is my favorite, their sauce is amazing! They also offer excellent pizzas, when we want a pizza night we order our pizza from here. You won't be disappointed! There's also a great selection of desserts, the strawberry cheesecake I get mine to-go because I'm so stuffed after eating. The price is very reasonable, you can feed your family or small group without breaking the bank. So if you're in the area, or just passing through, stop by this family owned and run Italian restaurant and show them some love. * You'll probably see my husband and I there * read more

We were overwhelmingly please with the quality, quantity and value of the food we ordered for a wedding reception. We ordered for 55 people and requested two main dishes , salad and rolls. It seems that no one left our property without commenting on how delicious the food was. One of many comments was they had never had such creamy chicken Alfredo. Francesco's were very easy to deal with and made everything uncomplicated and delivered the feast 20 miles away for a small fee! Thank You Francesco's!!! read more
