5 Stars for what may be my favorite specialty pizza ever. Pro-tip: order the G.O.A.T. Pizza. We had a hankering for pizza and Francesco's absolutely hit the spot. Their pizza is NY style thin crust (YUM) and though you can order a typical Margherita pizza, I highly suggest looking through the specialty pizza options. We got the G.O.A.T. Pizza which comes with mozzarella cheese, goat cheese, caramelized onions, herbs, and hot honey drizzle. It's even better than it sounds. This was the perfect combo of garlicky savory cheese and sweet honey with the tiniest kick. I could have eaten the entire large pizza on my own. I'm in RI for one more week and trust that I will order this again. I also got the 10 piece order of wings with BBQ sauce and was so pleasantly surprised to see it came on top of caramelized onions! It was there in the description, but I missed it. They were so good I was picking them out by hand and enjoying them. The wings were thick and full of meat. They had an option to get them extra well done, but I love exactly how they came regularly. I would definitely order these again. Overall, super impressed. Highly recommended! read more

Francesco's has good pizza and it's really easy to order take out and do pick up! They often have deals going on too. I can't eat cheese and I'm always grateful for pizza shops that offer vegan cheese and a good pizza. Just because I can't eat cheese, doesn't mean I want to eat a lame pizza. And this place delivers on a great vegan pizza! Whether you're vegan, lactose intolerant, a meat lover, vegetarian, or gluten free - there is something for you and this is your sign to order pizza for dinner tonight. They also offer catering, I used them for work before too. Super convenient and easy to work with. read more

Still a great place for full pizza or quick slices. Tried the special 3 slices get you a free soda. Slices are good size. Thin pizza prepared perfectly. Add Francesco's to my rotation of go to places for slices while driving through PVD. read more

This was my second time at Francesco's Pizzeria and was looking forward to eating their pizza. The first time I went was for a slice and it was light, crispy, fresh...just delicious. Unfortunately, I was very dissapointed in the large Margherita pie I ordered this time around. The dough was brittle, the cheese didn't taste all that fresh and the rest of the ingredients (sauce and spices) were just OK. It's always dissapointing when a restaurant lacks consistency and leaves you wondering what happened? Is it the cook at certain shifts, carelessness, different quality products? I don't know, but this place may be worth a try if they could output the product I had during my first visit. The pizza was dissapointing, but the wings were good. It tasted fresh, very crispy and hit the spot. The wings definitely saved the overall meal which is why I gave them a 3 overall, but the pizza was like a 2. The other stuff - I called in and was put on a long hold. The employee I spoke to was a apologetic about the wait and was overall pleasant. I've been inside this restaurant and it's quite small, so taking out may be a better option. -ODL Connect with me! IG & YouTube: @AOEAT read more

HOLY DELICIOUSNESS !!! If you are a pizza lover like myself and you haven't been here yet.. you are missing out. Grabbed a pizza on the way home quick and I had to grab a slice from the box while we were driving.. I couldn't wait ! Hot cheesy YUM! We had hot honey pizza.. yep, a pepperoni pizza with some hot honey sauce on it we also had some wings and apps which were all great too.. service was good - quick, friendly and place was clean - this is my new fav pizza spot !! read more

Remind me how unsatisfying these slices are. No garlic powder to help the unsatisfying slice. Location is good, I just wish the slices were more satisfying. Nothing stands out. Some places re-heat works, others not. read more

I ordered a Margherita pizza based on photos I saw online. I added pepperoni to half of it. I will say it's a pretty good pizza. Thin crust, good red sauce, fresh ingredients. I appreciate that it was not sloppy. It is definitely one of the better pizza places I have tried locally. Now I did order delivery so the unfortunate part was it wasn't hot or even warm. But with that being said could have been the driver. I would def order from. Here again as far as pizza goes. read more

Good Pizza We got a takeout order, it's a pizza shop. Not really an eat in. Quality pizza, we got the sausage and ricotta. You can tell they put time into making good dough. Toppings were quality. All around one of the better pizzas you can get in Providence. Thanks read more

Francesco's Pizzeria was a stop for the 6th Annual Search for the Best Scoop Shop RI with RI Food Fights. When we saw this stop, we were very excited that a pizzeria was also serving ice cream. There were a few flavors to select. I chose a scoop of the tiramisu gelato. It was very refreshing and light. Since we walked in, the pizza smelled so good and purchased 2 slices. They have earned awards such as the most instagrammable pizza, most delicious pizza, and most creative pizza. I saw they have a General Tso's pizza which has General Tso Chicken, Roasted Red Peppers, Scallions. Thought that was unique. I had their Classic Pepperoni-Red Pizza, Pepperoni and my husband ordered a slide of the Buffalo Chicken-Shredded Buffalo Chicken, Scallions, Mozzarella. The crust was crunchy and crisp and it wasn't too saucy. This was delicious. There is street parking available. In front of the pizzeria there are a few seats with a middle stand for sharing. These were so cool and efficient. Service was great. It was just 1 woman managing the phones, customers inside, and managing the orders. I would definitely come back for their slice & ice deal which is 99¢ slice of cheese pizza with your purchase of any ice cream. read more

Great tasting sauce on our pizzas. Timely delivery. Wonderful choices on the menu. We have returned to this spot several times.

Providence is a veritable theme park if you're into world class Italian so... it is a little disconcerting to be confronted with a General Tso's pizza. I guess we're just in the throes of feeling we can throw anything together on some lump of dough and give it a Paisan fist bump for authenticity. A little too random for my taste but when you can buy a Twinkie Smoothie six pack at Walmart all bets are off when it comes to culinary DNA. Anyway, I liked the pizza despite it's confused pedigree. Just don't tell Cap'n Crunch. Four stars. read more

This place is terrible. I went here based on great reviews from critics and Barstool.. what a mistake. The pizza was undercooked and the extra toppings added was minimal.. we're talking a large pepperoni pizza with 6 pepperoni. That's just cheap/lazy and irritating. The real negative here was the woman working the register on Saturday 4/27 at 4:30. Major attitude for no reason and told me to hurry up and pay so she could take her break. Are you serious? Who talks to people like that. For all potential patrons considering this place.. hard pass read more

Forget 7.9, this place is 10.0. Pizza was outstanding, prices reasonable, service fast and friendly. Location convenient. Couldn't ask for more. Stephanie from behind the counter was even so nice as to track down an extra shirt from the recent celebrity appearance. I was up in Providence for a basketball game and this detour made my day. read more

A let down... Went here from the Portnoy review and felt like they didn't give us the same pizza as him. Ordered one cheese and one pepperoni pizza. The sauce was the main let down... didn't taste any different then something I could buy from the market. Well they got me in the joint so kudos to them but I don't think I'll be making the 45 minute trip back. read more

A decent pizza. Cooked well, a nice sweet sauce and a good cheese blend. Street parking only, and a cramped interior. People were friendly and curious. One knock, would be the codes on the website for discounts not working. read more

I've been to Francesco's for pizza twice with about a year in between. I think they're working on improving their pizza. Recently I went here for the Rhode Island food fights ice cream month and got a scoop of salted caramel gelato. It's very reasonably priced, and quite good. They had more flavors to choose from than I'd expect for a place more focused on pizza. Overall, I'd probably go again for gelato, and I'd consider the deal they advertised for adding a piece of pizza to an ice cream purchase for only 99 cents. The shop is small, but there is some seating outside. More of a pick up and go place. Street parking here is also generally pretty easy. read more

If you came here thinking about getting the General Tso's Pizza... DO IT This was hands down one of the best pizzas me and my girl have had in a while. We ordered about 30 minutes before closing and it was one of the best decisions we made. No flop on the pie, beautiful under carriage and the toppings were solid. Not normally a fan of a white pizza but the general tso's sauce took this pie to the next level. Will we order again? Absolutely. We've tried a lot of pizza spots in Providence and have been somewhat disappointed but not here. Absolutely ranked on my top 5 pizzerias. read more

Taco salad - 2 stars They need to do a better job at chopping up the iceberg lettuce; too many big pieces. They literally put maybe l1 of 2 crumbled up tortilla chips and they tasted stale. Classic 3 cheese pizza - 3.5 stars Order well done - it's the crust for me. The pizza gives me a homemade vibe, maybe it's their sauce. read more

I tried this place when they first opened 3 years ago and was very impressed but turned off by the super long wait. After watching the Dave Portnoy review and trying again, all I have to say is Wow! Nice crispy crust, perfect amount of grease, and a little floppy NY style. Folding it in half is the way to do it. I had the Brown U special - pepperoni/ricotta//hot honey. Blew me away. My 4 and 9 year old were equally impressed with their cheese and pepperoni slices. Next time I'm going to try a General Tso slice. Highly recommended! read more

I ordered a four layer cake, but I guess they were out so they sent me this little tiny sliver of a torte and charge me the same price. when I say it was a slivwe got it was about six bites. read more

We wanted to pick up some apps to eat while we were watching the game on Sunday, and were in the area so we stopped in to order something to go and ate a ready made slice from the case while we were waiting. This location is to go/takeout only - which was perfect for us. While we were waiting, we saw several Uber eats pickups happen, which means that other people had the same idea too. I had the General Tso's slice - which was both sweet and savory and my kids a pepperoni and cheese slice. The pizza is a thin crust and there was a good amount of toppings on them. The wings were well seasoned and juicy and the mozzarella sticks were crunchy on the outside and gooey on the inside - just how we like them! While this spot isn't our usual neighborhood pizza place, it was very good and we were happy to have had the chance to try them out today. read more

This review is based on an Uber Eats delivery. I didn't dine in. Just moved to Riverside and was looking for a good turn to pizza place. I'd say this one is a winner. Was poking around on Uber eats and noticed this place had a deal at the moment; BOGO free of their 3 cheese pizza. Went for it and added meatball to both cheese pizzas. We also ordered a BBQ chicken pizza. I take off one star because the crust on the BBQ pizza was pretty 'meh'. The flavor was delicious though. I'm a woman who likes a good pizza crust and both 3 cheese pizzas were perfecto. Tasty meatballs, plenty of cheese, a rich sauce and soft crust with light crunch on the outside. All in all, good pizza, okay pricing (like the deals/coupons) and will be ordering again. read more

I ordered wings and a sandwich from them a few months ago. I waited an hour and a half for the order. The staff never apologized for the wait or made any assurances while I waited there that the food would be ready soon. Anytime I would ask if my order would be ready soon, I was told the location was new (which at the time it was a new location) and they had a lot of orders. Which okay, fair point but that was still not a reason to make me wait that long for wings and a sandwich. When I finally got the wings and ate them at home the wings were not very good at all. Though the sandwich was good. I have not gone there since after that. I am writing this now because I still get annoyed when I drive by the place. read more

Yummy pizza and even yummier calzones. I don't love a huge, sloppy/greasy calzone and this place does it right. Clean, full of toppings, and huge. Their pizza is solid and they have some pretty funky options if you're up for it. A go-to for me when a calzone craving strikes. read more

Crust was very crispy so it would hold up well to any amount of toppings. The crust was very thin with very little air making the edges very hard.

Really well rounded pizza overall, nice cheese and sauce, strongly recommend if anyone's in Providence.

Everything is wonderful here, from the staff to the food it is a perfect customer experience! 10/10 recommend!

Great friendly staff. Had the honey bear pizza and wow. 10/10 recommend. Try the sweet Thai chili wings or garlic rosemary. Def my fav pizza joint. read more

The service was awkward. The girl who took my order had a snarky attitude as if she has it under control but proceeded to forget about my slices in the oven resulting in her having to replace the pizza. Once I finished I asked her to discard my pizza box and she responded as if she was too good to do her job. Saying "all you have to do it fold the box" hinting at my trouble trying to fit a large box into a small trash can. It bothered me enough to want to leave this review. People who "know it all" shouldn't be in charge of businesses where the customer is always right! read more

I was looking for a new pizza place on Uber Eats and I found Francesco's. My husband got a large pepperoni & cheese and I got a medium Zara Greek Pizza. It was excellent! I am very picky about pizza since I lived in NYC for so many years & this didn't disappoint! The Zara pizza (white pizza) has mozzarella, feta, roasted red bell peppers, artichoke hearts, spinach, sliced tomatoes, and kalmata olives. It was done perfectl. My husband wouldn't leave my pizza alone. I wish I got a large Zara instead. This will be my new pizza place from here on out! Highly recommend! read more
