Francesca's Italian Kitchen

We pulled off the 15 to avoid Friday traffic, thinking we would eat dinner while it lightened up, and we chose Francesca:s Italian Kitchen based on the good reviews. Oh boy, were we ever happy! Seriously the BEST Eggplant Parm (for me) and Chicken Marsala (for him) we have ever eaten. Wonderful service as well. It's an hour from home but we will de... finitely make the drive to be back forore delicious food. We are very blessed to have Francesca's right here in our own town! If you are from out of town, please visit here for your upmost elegant Italian dining. It is fine Italian foods cooked to perfection. I mean that!!! Made when ordered but no long waiting. Everything from Bruschetta to Italian wines and local wines. It is quite, private seating, beautiful music and Italian setting on every wall. Please order their dessert too! It sets the tone to your Italian night! This was my first time ordering from them. I had never been here previously. Starting with the girl who answered the phone, she was so sweet and helpful with answering my questions. When I arrived to the restaurant to pick up my food, multiple people greeted me and checked on my food. I believe the manger cashed me out and walked me to my car... Hazel and I needed to get out of the house and I wanted to eat something good. I lived down the street from here and have never tried it until today and we really liked it! The pizza was amazing w so much yummy cheese! We had people waiting on their dominos pizza staring as we pulled a slice and all that cheese was wow! And the bread was so hot and cheesy, we couldn't stop munching on that... This is a hidden Gem hidden in a strip mall. Omg! The food was fabulous and authentic Italian food, and the place is run by Italians from Italy!!! How much more authentic can you get :-) Highly recommended this place. Even their cocktails and liquor is superb. I would definitely make this place my to-go-to for Italian food in Temecula/Murrieta...Read More
