Eggplant parm with spaghetti
Lisa C.

What a nice and casual place with excellent yummy food! I got an eggplant parm with spaghetti, which can be a hit or miss for other places, and it exceeded my expectations. Staff is so friendly and helpful. Will be back with my family for sure!

We've been getting pizza from Franco's on a weekly basis for a while now, and are always pleased with the quality and flavor. The pizza is never too greasy or heavy, and they have a lot of interesting options. The crust is perfect and the toppings are fresh and delicious! The staff is really friendly and efficient, and the kitchen is consistent in quality. Definitely worth a try for great pizza and Italian food!

Lg Di Prosciutto Sub - did they forget the meat?
Josh P.

The photos speak for themselves. A roll with a single slice of prosciutto, mozzarella, and tomato. $11. I understand that food costs are high, but I would have rather paid $15 and had a proper sandwich. Franco's, do you stand by this? For the record, we ordered this (Di Prosciutto) and a The Godfather, and the latter was nearly as pathetic.

Sad excuse for the tomato on a BLT
Lynne S.

I ordered a BLT figuring you're can't go wrong with this classic sandwich. I waited what seemed like a long time and finally got it and went to my car to eat it. What a total disappointment! Wow the slice of tomato was so thin it was like a piece of paper and there was such a tiny pinch of shredded lettuce that was such a joke. It didn't even try to cover the bread which had no mayonnaise (definitely standard unless one asks not to put it on). The bacon was just ok also very thin, fatty and scarce. Basically I paid 8bucks for a piece of warm bread. Never going back. Hubby got a slice of pizza which was cold. How can a restaurant serve that and think it's good???? It's beyond me.

Small French Fries

Food is really good and friendly service, however it's pricey and portions are very small. This was a $7 order of French fries. Did not even fill half the box.

The impossible wait for our favorite pasta.

Garlic knots, gnocchi Sorrentino, and the subs. Best in the Metrowest area hands down!

I have visited the Newton location many times and excellent pizza. I was in the area late evening…read morebefore their 9 pm closing and i opted to try the Sudbury location . It is larger than the Newton spot and a bigger bar area, more extensive menu with many pasta dishes, appetizers. The pizza is my preference . I ordered the Dante pizza and very good meatballs slices on the pizza . The beer selections on draft are all good. I think the pizza crust was better on the Newton pizza... or a perceived perception? But maybe because I really enjoyed the Newton pizza which was the L'oscar which was grilled onions, sausage, mascarpone , olive oil, mushrooms, mozzarella. Maybe the Newton water vs. Sudbury water in the dough theory or maybe I am just being an over anal analyst of the dough? Either case both locations have great pizza. I would test the water at both locations and see affects on the dough and which water had better preferred pizza dough qualities ? Maybe then filter the water or Bri g a 5 gallon jug of the better water for the dough ? Maybe the dirty Boston water or New York water in Bew York bagels theory? Or maybe who cares ? On a different note; The oven baked wings I had in Newton were very good and meaty with the grilled onions ... I do have 1/2 pie to save for next day lunch as their pizza reheats well. I like both locations and Sudbury easier parking .

I usually sit at the bar, which is very cozy and comfortable, order up a nice Jack's Abbey House Lager, and a build-your-own pizza. Their pizzas are great. They're coal fired and although they always have some char (by design) the crust still has a nice chew to it. They seem to have really perfected the dough recipe. Everyone who works here is super friendly, and the vibe is relaxed. I love coming to Max and Leo's whenever I get the chance!

Decided to try this place after sobra mesa closed in the same spot. I believe it is the same owners…read moreand for sure much of the same staff, with a remade concept. The restaurant itself is still very nice - big bar at which I ate (single) and a separate dining room. Given my dissatisfaction with the former cuisine I did not have high expectations this time. But I believe this time may work out better for them. There are few decent Italian restaurants in the area, whereas there is heavy competition in good Mexican food. My daughter and her husband have gotten takeout and dined in once and warned me it might be inconsistent. We shall see. I believe they have potential. The wines are not clearly explained. Just "light" or "not so light". Cute but uninformative. Wine prices by the glass are on the high side. I tried one that was supposed to be similar to a Pinot noir. It was terribly bitter. It was then replaced with a Barbera. Much better. I wanted to graze so avoided large plates. Ordered the meatballs appetizer and the eggplant ricotta crepe. This place also serves pizza (which are basically flatbreads so don't expect decadent crust) so the meatballs were the standard pizza-style rubber balls. Sauce was flavorful but they were too chewy. The eggplant crepes- which I can only describe as "quesadilla-like" were wonderful. Very light but full of flavor (I asked to hold the truffle oil, which can overpower). I'd order those again, with a bit less pesto on top as there is plenty of basil inside. It's a small app but nice. That dish is a winner. Service was experienced and quite knowledgeable. When I commented on the meatball texture they did acknowledge- "Well yeah we know that." On a Friday night they were pretty quiet. I hope they make it. I will come back when I'm visiting the daughter again and try a couple of other dishes.

Because we are long-time fans of the sister restaurant downstairs (Sobre Mesa), my parents and I…read morewere very excited to try the Italian menu upstairs this time! The cocktails (Pom Pom and Violette Smash) were delightfully refreshing and the red wine was, in deed, "Really Nice." We started with 2 appetizers: the mushroom bruschetta which was delicious and just crispy enough, and the wood-roasted meatballs which were awesome! (and to be honest we're typically pretty picky about our meatballs!) I had the chicken parm, which was absolute perfection (not surprising given their other sister business Nan's is known for their fried chicken)! My mom had the Bolognese with chorizo, which she thought was a little spicy for her taste, but still delightful. My dad had the Slow Cooked Pork Sugo, which I think is his new favorite Italian dish ever! Also, there was still plenty left to take home to continue enjoying for leftovers the next day! By the way, the service is excellent, and the ambiance is, of course, incredible (we even decided to host my sister's bridal shower in the upstairs space earlier this year - If you're interested, see the Private Events section of Sobre Mesa's website!) I highly recommend stopping in or making a reservation for your next dinner out or ordering takeout! We will definitely be back again soon!
