Great pastrami sandwich! Great bread that they toast in the pizza oven. I have been numerous times now and while I want to be able to talk to the rest of their menu....I cant. I ordered the pastrami sandwich my first time and have never looked back. But I am sure they have got some other great dishes to offer, pretty big menu. It's a cute local little spot to grab food or eat on their little patio. Highly recommend
We like to eat here for the variety of Persian and Italian food, but maybe they offer too much. Sometimes quality will suffer when you try to do too much. My pizza kinda tasted like a frozen pizza, but it was still good. My husbands lamb chops were delicious, just a little too salty for my taste. My daughters beef kabob was the best, melt in your mouth tender! I enjoyed my house salad, loved that it was chopped. Service was excellent. Took great care of us! We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town, but I don’t think I’ll order the pizza.
Absolutely delicious! Chef’s kiss! I’ve been meaning to try this little gem as it’s pretty close to home and I’ve been looking for a low-key Italian cafe to call my number one. I’ve found it! Extensive menu, quick service, and delicious food. I thoroughly enjoyed the Caprese Rustica Sandwich, I’m still daydreaming about it the next day. Can’t wait to go back and try more!
I just discovered this place as I am new to the area. But it is very conveniently close to my house. Yesterday I went in and got a ham & cheese sandwich. Not so good... with good intentions and in hopes of finding a convenient food option in the neighborhood, I figured I would try their pizza. So, I came back today. The menu is on the wall to the right when you walk in. Since I was ordering to go for a family of five, it would have been so much easier not to memorize the menu because the girl taking orders was all the way at the other end of the restaurant, where you can not see the menu and would not walk twenty feet to take an order... So, I ordered a four topping pizza: Pineapple, ham, olive & feta. They were out of feta, so instead of going to the other side of the restaurant to figure out what I wanted instead of feta, I took a three topping pizza. When I got home, the pizza was undercooked with the dough melting from the middle, it had practically no sauce and did not have olives. Literally the worst pizza I ever had in my entire life. I had throw it away because none of the kids wanted anything to do with it. I have no idea how this place can stay open. I would not suggest this establishment and I won't be going back.
This place has been here for as long as I can remember. I used to come here when I was in highschool, and they have always been the spot to buy the best baguettes. The sandwiches are fantastic as well. I've never been disappointed when coming here. You local folks around the Palos Verdes San Pedro area if you haven't tried it you are missing out.
Ordered via DoorDash, the restaurant called immediately and left a very blunt message saying “call us back now” with no name or information. So I called and the woman who answered was said they were out of the specific dish with no explanation, didn’t give me any other options that I could chose from and told me I should cancel my order. She was very rude and did not have great customer service. Had problems last time I ordered, too.. don’t recommend.
Our favorite Italian place! One of the last privately owned and operated by the chef himself anywhere. We have moved, so I don’t get to frequent as often I use to, or as often as I like, but whenever I get within 15 miles of Francesco’s, I make sure to come! We love their sausage sandwich, meatball sandwich, and eggplant and turkey sandwich… And they have the BEST pizza anywhere around. Fresh dough, homemade sauce ....trust me....best pizza!! If you love pizza, you’ll be so happy if you get pizza from here. I’ll get a couple whenever I’m near here and will take them home to my family....which easily makes me the fam favorite for awhile
Just discovered a gem so close to home! Almost feels like I won the lottery, well not really; but I am excited. Fresh ingredients, delicious, and excellent quality. Fresh baked baguette's by the loaf. Secret's out, now you know too! I had the Chicken Parmesan on a fresh baked baguette-perfection! Pizza, pasta, sandwiches, salads, Espresso, desserts.. and they deliver!
This is the best pizza on the whole hill! We’ve been going here for 21 years! Their sandwiches are great too!
Showed up on a Friday night to order a pizza, a sandwich and an order of fettuccine alfredo. Everything was great except the fettuccine alfredo... It had zero flavor and was very bland. It was a $12 fettuccine alfredo, with no chicken and not worth it. We had several people taste the dish and the conclusions were unanimous. At this point we had no choice but to go back and hope they would fix the dish. Upon returning we stated our issue and were met with a hostile cook. He stated that there was nothing wrong with the dish, that it was cooked fresh and that we were accustomed to eating processed food. We had to beg him to make us a pizza as a substitute and that we were willing to pay the difference. After a minute or so of pleading, they agreed to sub out the dish for a pizza. As the pizza was being baked, the cook asked us what other places had we tasted fettuccine alfredo! As if we are used to dining at mediocre restaurants and do not have the taste for their 'perfect' food. It gets worse... A few minutes past by and he leans over the counter and ask my brother and I if we lived around the neighborhood. Not sure what he meant by that but I'm sure it was because we are Hispanic. I live down the street by the way. Pretty sure he was thinking that we didn't belong in the neighborhood. We received our pizza, paid the difference and never going back.
