Franchettis'

We've been a few times now, and the food is always top notch, and the folks friendly and helpful. I especially appreciate the quality of the food, and even when indulging, how healthy it is! (that doesn't mean low calorie .. lol) It's a very casual setting, and my family and friends enjoy it too..

My Grandson's favorite place and my Go-To place for lunch or dinner meetings and family get together's. The menu has something for everyone, pizza, (one of the best in town), pasta, just like mama makes. John and Gesine's team are friendly and helpful from the moment you walk in the door. They are all about combining the traditions of regional European cuisine with their expertise in wood fire cooking; they create a unique and seasonal California menu full of traditional and contemporary European cuisine with a healthy California; wood fired twist. Easy to get to, but hard to find (they sit back off the road) and plenty of free parking. With Google Map, you will quickly find Franchitti's for Brunch, Lunch or Dinner. Great beverage list from coffee, tea, Italian Sodas and wine for everyone. Add Franchetti's to your list of must-try restaurants while in Sonoma County.

I have been here quite a few times and have always had a great experiance and great food. Highly recommended!!!

Great people and great food! You order up front, but the service at your table is great. The food is both interesting and delicious!

The food at Franchetti's never disappoints me. Happy hour offerings are always tasty and it is so nice to come in from the rain and as soon as you sit down, have warm bread served to you. The wine selection is always interesting and so far no losers! When we arrived most tables were taken, but we found a table for 4 and brought over a couple chairs as more friends started showing up. We were there on a Friday night for happy hour and they were slammed! I felt for the wait staff. Can't wait for summertime and the outside patio. The kitchen may need to expand soon...and that's a good thing!

I wanted to like this place. Casual eatery that had seemingly high-end cuisine. The food was just okay. The fried veggie appetizer was pretty good. The crust on the veggies did not adhere well, and kept flaking off. I also felt it was over-cooked and some of the veggies were a little soft. The burrata/crab/grilled cherry tomato salad was pretty good, but the cherry tomatoes were over-charred on one side on all of them. Kind of wanted to scrape off the char, but I really like that part. It's just that these were over-cooked. The really weird part was that the entrée said it was grilled ling cod. I'm pretty sure we got a swordfish steak. All three of us who ordered it (it was the restaurant week entrée) got the same fish. It was good and well-prepared, but it wasn't ling cod. I also was disappointed in the other items on the plate. All veggies and they were sweet and tart. The dish needed some starch or salty element and I got tired of the flavor. I usually finish everything on my plate, but didn't finish the greens this time. My wife had the duck breast entrée and I tasted it. It was very nice, but the breast was difficult to cut. Dessert received mixed reviews from the table. I liked it. Coffee was excellent. Overall, nothing much here to draw me back, unless it just so-happened that it was an unusually-busy night and things were off a bit. Substituting the fish was a no-no, however. They could have told us that ahead of time and it would have been forgiven.

I've never been there but both my parents went and they loved. They loved everything about great service and great everything. Jillian is an excellent and amazing person ever.
