We were looking for a good Italian place to eat while visiting Williamsburg. I looked on here at the reveiws and saw this restuarant! WOW, is all I can say! Everything was perect. From the garlic bread, to the homemade dressings, to the main meal. If you love Italian then this is the place. DO NOT go anywhere else. Enjoy...

We have visited Williamsburg, Va annually for the past 10 years, but never could find an Italian Restaurant that we rated at the top of our list. Last year we found Francesco's Ristorante Italiano and now can't wait to make our return visits. In fact this year we visited twice - first night upon arrival for pizza and salad, and...

Ate there with a party of six and except for being a bit crowded, it was an outstanding meal across the board. Service was excellent and informative, for example, one of our party was a real wine guy, and was impressed with wine list. But after we discussed our meal choices, the server suggested a reasonably priced Chianti that ended...

I live in Williamsburg and took two very picky eaters to Francesco's on their trip to PA.. The meals were so good that they insisted to returning on their return trip to NC. Again they were totally pleased, and have stated it is the best Italian food they have eaten, I agree.

This is a small restaurant, which is my only complaint. Allow yourself a little waiting time, but it is worth the wait. The food is homemade and the portions are huge. The salads are VERY fresh and the perfect size. The bread that comes with your meal is homemade and I belive is made on site. The bread alone is...

Followed other contributors to Francesco's. Lisa pointed out the signature dishes with her recomendations, and she selected well. The food was every bit as good as other contributors had said it was. Service was very good. Everyone was very friendly, nice atmosphere and will definitely will go back again before we end our short vacation.

We found Francesco's through Trip Advisor while planning a mini-vacation to Williamsburg. I had a chef's special entree, Seafood Cannelloni with pink sauce. It was incredible. Also the best garlic bread I've ever had. Jackie gave us excellent service. She even specially packed a cannoli so we could put it on ice in our hotel room and enjoy it later...

The food was also quite excellent , I had a very nice seadfood ravoli with shrimp and a pink sauce that was so good I could have licked the plate. The others in our group...

I live in Williamsburg and I know all the restaurants, especially the Italiian ones. This is the best "home cooked" authentic Italian food in town. Stop eating American-Italian food cooked by Greeks and get the real thing at Francesco's. What's great is that Francesco (who is from Sicily) has many different sauces to choose from, and you can mix and...
