    Wings
    Jeremy A.

    Not sure about this place, I will have to try it again. Came here for dinner after a day in the lake. The big takeaways wings and the bacon wrapped scallops were bomb. Wings we actually ordered a second time because they had suck great flavor. 0ur server was ok, but slightly rude at times. We did have a large group, she was fairly attentive but clearly annoyed at times. Both the mango jalapeno margarita and regular margarita left a lot left to be desired. The steak it's elf for medium rare was very difficult to cut even with a steak knife. The potato tacos were different but alright. Heard a lot of great things about this place, but just missed the mark.

    Food is always impeccable and delicious. Remains one of our favorite spots to take friends and family. We almost always order the special offer but do also get our favorites like the guacamole and drinks. Incredible customer service. Wonderful people who are so attentive to every customer. Beautiful space. Will be back soon.

    Loved the food and service was fast and friendly. I love the guacamole and margaritas. I love the lunch menu where you can pick a soup and salad combo. Definitely will be back soon.

    I could live off the potato tacos on the appetizers menu. Only drawback is they don't offer a spicy salsa to go along with it. Now.. When feeling fancy I order lobster tails. The mashed potatoes are amazing and enough leftovers to make my own potato tacos at home. Service was attentive without being overbearing, and the staff made us feel welcome from start to finish. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just treating yourself to something a little fancy, this spot delivers. I'm so glad to have a place like this nearby. It's proof that you don't need to travel far for high-quality Mexican food in a beautiful setting. Can't wait to go back!

    I am from a different state and I make sure to visit this place every year when I visit. ITS THAT GOOD! And they hav never once disappointed me. The quality of the food, the ambiance, and the best customer service. The dishes I have ordered from here include tomahawk steak and other steaks which is was by far my favorite. The mashed potatoes, grilled vegetables, and crunchy onion strips were to die for. So flavorful and every bite was incredible. French fries, shrimp, bread and butter with the French onion soup blew me away. I love that they keep the skin on the French fries! I've enjoyed two of their drinks and was impressed with the quality and flavor in every sip. I've had jalapeño margaritas and the sangria which were balanced perfectly with spice, sour, and sweetness.

    Excellent dining experience. The food was excellent. Highly recommend getting the bacon wrapped scallops. The steak and lobster was made to perfection. An dessert was just as good.

    Filet mignon and lobster
    Erika B.

    This place is great for a celebratory dinner. Their drinks were yummy. And the filet mignon with lobster was worth the money. There was plenty of seating, indoors and outdoors. The only thing i can see an issue is maybe parking. But thats about it.

    Their amazing Filet Mignon medium rare, asparagus, twice baked potato, and 2 tender and perfectly prepared Lobster Tails!  Bravo!

    My first time at Francisco's with my family! On my son's recommendation. We had a fantastic experience! Our server, A.J. was outstanding! The beverages were amazing! Appetizers of Quac & Chips was very good! Wedge Salad! We had assorted entrees ~ Prime Rib, Tacos, Burgers, and I had their Filet Mignon with 2 Lobster Tails! It was a great time and we will definitely be back there soon! Good parking. Quick Service. Excellent Quality. Friendly Service. Amazing presentation and preparation and quality food!

    Four appetizers (there were four tacos) $70 after tip of 20%..
    Chris R.

    Stopped in this afternoon for a quick bite and enjoyed almost everything! It was nice and clean, we were greeted by Francisco himself when we arrived. Marco was our server and he did a very good job also. The Ceviche was the highlight both in presentation and flavor. We also enjoyed their potato tacos and fries. The garlic shrimp was ok.. just too much cheese. Prices were a little high for what we received over all. Locally owned an operated, definitely worth a try!

    kids meal

    The restaurant is next to the lake. We met some friends here and grabbed dinner. They have an adult and kid menu. The food was fantastic. I got a burger, and it was thick with flavor and juices. My husband got a steak with shrimp. The portion size is average. They do have to-go boxes if you want to order out or take leftovers home. They have a cool peak a boo window on the floor to see the lake. The day we went the water was very low, but an unexpected find. There is also an outdoor eating area with umbrellas. It was cold, windy, and rainy the day we went so we ate indoors. The patio area would be nice to enjoy in better weather. There is a parking lot in the front but could also park at the lake and walk over if full. If in the area, it is a great place to grab a bite.

    They have gluten-free options?

    They have gluten free items like steak and salmon. I asked about gluten free tortillas and was told no. This is a very new restaurant and is still evolving. The flavors were good as was the service. We will go back.

We were celebrating with my husband, our two young children, and my in-laws, so we were looking forward to a special brunch together. Our server, Shami, did not make us feel welcomed from the start. There was no introduction, greeting, or acknowledgment that it was Father's Day. The interaction felt very rushed and impersonal. When ordering mimosas, she brought the champagne to the table and asked whether we wanted to serve ourselves or have her do it, which felt unusual and left us unsure of what was expected. Throughout the meal, we consistently thanked her when food and drinks were brought out, but our comments were met with silence. There was little to no engagement, warmth, or hospitality during the service. While we understand everyone can have an off day, the overall experience felt cold and inattentive, especially for a special occasion. The food was good, and because we've had positive experiences here in the past, we're hopeful this was an isolated incident. However, service plays a big role in the dining experience, and this visit left us disappointed.

We love the family friendly atmosphere and the always friendly waitresses. The food is consistently well-made and delicious. We've been here more times than I can count and have never had a less than great experience. I'm O B S E S S E D with their homemade soups. They are to die for. Best clam chowder and fish in chips in town, too! Better than any seafood restaurant I've been to in this state, way better than Ivars. And every time we go, they have a new soup to try! Which is awesome, but also sometimes frustrating because I've had several that I'd love to have again (Mexican chicken noodle and creamy mushroom chicken live rent free in my head) But they never seem to offer the special soups on any kind of rotation. Can we get a soup calendar on the website?! Not even joking. The number of times I've nearly rear ended people while driving by trying to catch the soup of the day on the sign outside is a little embarrassing. I love this place. The only things I could suggest to make this place even better are minor. The iced tea is not great. Tastes more like tap water than tea. And I wish they had a kids steak option on the kids menu because my kids always want some of our steak. Also, I wish they would turn the music down slightly during the family friendly hours. It gets quite loud. But other than those tiny detail, Hawkeyes is my kinda place!

They've always seemed just okay to me, but this one was perfectly fine today. In long This is kind of a nice strip mall complex, as these things go. BI has an end unit with a dining room toward the front and a lounge tucked in back. Both were busy today with a late-breakfast crowd. I had some time to kill and figured I wouldn't feel too bad taking up a table at a place this big. They're promoting breakfast with a big banner out front at the moment, which it turns out you order at the counter. I'm immediately guilt-free about taking up a table if they aren't sending servers out, just expediters. Dig it. They put a tray of ice waters on the counter--they've clearly dialed up the at-the-counter vibe to near table-service levels. I got an omelet and a coffee. They gave me a little table number and the expo brought my stuff out pretty quickly. I gotta say both the girls working today were super friendly and nice and made the place feel much more welcoming than another BI I hit a while back. The coffee here was surprisingly good--not overly roasted, solid flavor. The mug was from the roaster, whose name I've already forgotten. Kinda showing some pride in their coffee efforts. The food was decent. Clearly everything was out of a bag--processed cheese, egg mix rather than cracked shells. But good, despite the cheese being a little gluey. Hash browns had good flavor and crunch, biscuit was alright, too. Easy to finish, even though this was a little more food than I really needed today. Prices here are very fair. And I gotta say that big groups of friends filled every table and half the booths. Both rooms of the lounge were hoppin', too, and it was in between typical rush hours for breakfast or lunch. I think this BI might be the more-dependable link in the chain.
