From the day we opened Francesco's we have taken great pride in our food. We came from four generations of Italian chefs who were passionate about their cooking. We have tried to capture their passion and authenticity in the food we serve at our restaurant. Many of the items you see on our menu are prepared from recipes that have been handed down by our fathers and their fathers. Everything is fresh, nothing is frozen. Because tomatoes, olive oil and flour are the heart and soul of Italian cuisine, we import ours from Italy. Even our pizza crust is made with Italian virgin olive oil. Our Chef comes from a long line of chefs and is trained in authentic Italian cuisine. We hope you will enjoy your meal with us, and that you will come back often!
Great Experience

I love Francesco's pizza because of the delicious crust. I think the olive oil makes it tastier and unique and I really like the grilled chicken salad when I'm feeling in a healthy mood. The environment is clean and friendly and I love the fact that they are open for a late night bite! Francesco's is overall a great restaurant!
Pros: Best Pizza around

Great slice
by Strakssss
Really good slice. Was told about the place by my roommate. It's actually hard to find a good slice in NYC compared to my Long Island pizza but this definitely was comparable.
Pros: Quality
Cons: None really off the top of my head

Really solid pizza place. The Olive Oil Crust pizza seemed a bit weird when I heard of it, but the crunch is awesome. Highly recommended to anyone looking for some great pizza and a great price.
Pros: Tasty Slices

I used to visit Francesco's on the UWS and found out they opened up a new location in the village. Glad they did! great place to grab a slice or a chicken parm sandwich after a night of drinking.
Pros: Best Pizza in the area
