Moderately priced Italian food. Nice old world atmosphere. Our server Ivan wea pleasant. My wife and Iboth enjoyed our entrees but Caesar salad would be better with bacon bits and anchovies ... but would drive price up.

Had a great meal at Francesco. Pasta were freshly made. Great wine selection. On a Tuesday, they have 241 Pasta deal, which makes it more affordable

Great Eh
They have a fantastic pizza and pasta special of 2x1, I think you can't go wrong with that if you go with a group. Nice chicken manicotti and service was good as well. Barely any ambience music and I could of ordered dessert if it was offered to me. They do have a terrace as well.

Wow, being celiac the gluten free chicken piccata was out of this world. It looked just like my friend’s order (who had original pasta)so I was skeptic to proceed with eating it. The waitress and chef confirmed it WAS the gluten free pasta. Such a great staff and overall restaurant. Nice portion, amazing fresh flavors. Definitely recommend coming here or even ordering takeaway. Food is well packed and doesn’t get soggy either way.

Ordered through Uber eats last night and it was great. One of the best Pasta Carbonara that I've ever had and a delicious fresh salad. Highly recommend!

We have lived in San Miguel de Allende for over three years and for some strange reason, we never tried Francesco's on Zacatero. We enjoy Italian food and have found several excellent Italian restaurants around town, but we never tried Francesco's. Recently a friend recommended it so we decided to give it a try. We areived around 5:00 pm without reservations, but we had our choice of tables as they weren't very crowded. The hostess promptly seated us and told us that since tonight was Thursday it was 2 for 1 risotto night. According to our server they also offer 2 for 1 pasta night on Tuesdays, and 2 for 1 pizza on other nights (I can't remember which nights), as well as 2 for 1 cocktails on the rooftop at least one other night of the week. I looked over the risotto menu and the chicken, spinach, and mushroom risotto looked worth trying. Stacy wasn't in the mood for risotto so she ordered the chicken picatta. I asked our server if I could have the second risotto to go and he said no problem, but he apologetically informed me that it would be 19 pesos for a "to go" container. This didn't bother me at all and at 2 for 1 it was still an excellent deal. Before we recieved our meals we were served hot bread with butter, parmesan, and an excellent olive oil dipping sauce. The risotto was delicious. It had the perfect blend of spinach, chicken, mushroom and cheese. It was a large potionand I struggled to finish, but it was so good I managed. If I had one minor complaint, I like my risotto a little more cooked (less al dente), but this is a personal preference so I don't blame the restaurant. Stacy had the chicken picatta and she raved about it. The chicken was delicious and tender, the sauce was lemony and flavorful, there were plenty of capers, and her lasta was cooked perfectly. She said it was the best meal she had had in quite a while. We decided to split the panna cotta, which was served with a red berry topping and a drizzle of locor de casis. The flavor was delicious, and while I prefer my panna cotta a little lighter (this one was pretty dense), it was still really good. The service was excellent. Our server spoke very little English but he was friendly, attentive, and checked up on us a couple of times during our meal (I find that a rarity in many SMA restaurants). We were very pleased with our meal and we woll definitely be going back soon.
