This place has been my go-to for local pizza. Their Beast (24-inch) pizza was a favorite during my daughter's sleepover parties.

Pretty sure my food sat there for over a half hour because the mozzarella sticks were cold and like cardboard, and the crust of my pizza was cold. I'm not sure what they used for bacon because I was lucky to find a piece or even taste it. I have always loved this place, but I have never been this disappointed. This is the first review I have ever written

This was the second time we visited. Had a great experience. The food, service and value were…read moreexcellent. Our server was Halley. She was sweet, professional and attentive. The food was delicious. We ordered the salmon entree and the chicken parm. The Salmon was just okay but the chicken parm was one of the best I've had. The sauce made the meal. Each meal came with soup or salad, potatoes or pasta, dessert and coffee. The salad was yummy, particularly the house dressing. The bread was fresh and soft. We both made a mistake and asked for a baked potato instead of pasta. The potato was fine but both our meals paired better with pasta. The ice cream with coffee was a nice touch. The coffee was really good, like wedding coffee. lol. Each meal was approximately $25 ounces which was well worth it considering what came with it.

Restaurant was packed on a Saturday night, we didn't do a reservation because you have to…read morephysically call to get one-get with the times. So we waited 20 mins for a table. We got our own little room that was just big enough for our booth for 5. Complimentary Bread was delicious Special salad that came with the meals was good- the little pieces of Italian sausage & slices of egg made it better. I had 1/2 lasagna & 1/2 mostaccioli- lasagna was large & delicious. Mostaccioli was just cheap pasta with red sauce dumped on it. Wife had a nice steak w/ a side of fettuccine Alfredo instead of potato that looked very good. Son had just lasagna & his full large portion was enormous but he ate it all. Another son had a fish dinner w side of Alfredo. The last son just ordered the fettuccine Alfredo & added 2 meatballs that weirdly came in a red sauce, he didn't care just dumped it right on top of his Alfredo. A nice touch was-Everybody gets a scoops of ice cream after dinner, they had 5-6 choices. Everything was good-very good I'd recommend the lasagna or fettuccine Alfredo definitely the salad & bread. Negatives would be the only phone reservations & the price is high for just noodles & sauce. Bill was $160 for 5 dinners & 3 lemonades. So after tip around $200

Went for Valentine's Day. Loved the touch of giving roses. Was disappointed by the truncated menu…read moreas the dishes I was looking forward to were not available, but I understand they were expecting to be super busy. Food was good not great. Service was the same, had to ask for napkins and a steak knife as they were not brought to us. We our server was very sweet. The bruschetta and oysters Rockefeller were the stand outs-- so good! Both our mains were a bit disappointing. The cook on my husband's steak was incorrect and it had zero char-- pretty much totally gray. My risotto was undercooked with a bit too al dente rice and watery sauce. It also was underseasoned. However the seafood was great so I ate that without hesitation. I keep saying I like but don't love Francesco's, and for dinner for $275 for two people in Rockford, I just expect better quality if we're going to be paying downtown Chicago prices. I would go back but it's not going to be a meal I seek out.

I am new to the area, from Southern California, and have eaten here two times. Of the approximately…read more15 restaurants we have eaten at in the area, this is by far the best. When we have out-of-town guests, this is the place we will take them. It's a place I would be proud to take them. It's literally the only place I've been to that I can say that about. All the food is great: from the salmon to the chicken to the pizza to the pasta .... The service is great: helpful, nice, don't rush you out.... The facility is nice: very comfortable with gorgeous architecture and furnishings. This is at the top of our rotation....

Saturday we got to experience their exceptional customer service as well. After ordering and waiting at our table, we noticed the wait was a bit longer than usual, and shortly after, Pablo, the GM came to our table and asked about our order. He did not have any orders in the kitchen that hadn't been completed. He checked the kiosk we used, but didn't see our order. He apologized and took our order using pen and paper. After a short wait, Lisa started bringing out our order. She is so friendly and efficient (we remembered her from previous visits). Pablo also came out again to check to see if our order was complete and apologized again for the mixup. Our Italian beef sandwiches were delicious as usual (best in the Rockford area). French fries so crunchy on the outside but warm and soft on the inside. Granddaughter's chicken tenders were tasty and our daughter ordered the gluten free cauliflower crust pizza (which I didn't even realize was on the menu). She said it was awesome, one of the best she has had. I highly recommend you try this restaurant if you haven't already. The quality of the food is above par for any fast food restaurant in the area. The friendliness and professionalism of the staff is so appreciated because we all know that is regularly not the case in fast food establishments. Thank you, Pablo, for noticing we did not have our order and for making it right so quickly. It is so appreciated. Oh and I can't forget that for the first time we tried Rainbow Cone (granddaughters insisted lol) and we were not disappointed. Milk shakes were creamy and thick with great choice of toppings. Cones and dishes with great choices of hand packed ice cream were great! So don't forget dessert!

Cheddar broccoli soup was very good with the bread dunked in it. Salads were fine, they could add a crouton, but tomato was good & I really liked their French dressing. I had the seafood diavolo which was a little spicy but not that great. It had 3 large scallops that were delicious but I didn't really like their sauce. Shrimp were large but tough. My portion was smallish with not much pasta. Load up the inexpensive pasta please. Wife & 1 son had seafood Alfredo & they both liked it. Other Son ordered penne with Alfredo & added a meatball ( which wasn't that big for $4). He liked his All 3 other pasta dishes were a larger portion than mine. Pizza looked decent, maybe I'll try it if we come back. Bill was $140 b4 tip for 4 meals with no alcohol, no apps or desserts.

I love nachos, so we tried the Italian Nachos not realizing how huge they were! That was a meal in itself and definitely shareable. Husband wanted a seafood dish and they didn't have many, so he opted for the lobster ravioli. It was a bit salty to our liking, but creamy and tasty. I got the braised rib pasta, which was a little bland for my liking. So we mixed the two sauces together and it worked out well for us. Our server was amazing. She was knowledable and very attentive. We were so full by the end of the meal and had plenty leftover. Which she helped pack and made sure I was able to bring a birthday dessert home. We would come back to try other dishes whenever we are in the mood for some good Italian dishes.
