Greg PalmerFebruary 15, 2015The service here is amazing and super nice. "Nice" is clearly important here. And the food is to die for. Your best bet for North End Italian.

- Go by for Restaurant Week for a 3-Course Lunch for 20.10 and a 3-Course Dinner for 33.10! Also, they're having promotions in August! http://villafrancescaboston.com/august-promotions/
CynJanuary 14, 2012Overpriced version of what a great italian restaurant should be in the north end. They make everyone in your party order an entree if you get a table.
- Don't have to wait for restaurant week! Villa Francesca offers a $34.95 3-course seafood prix fixe dinner EVERY week :) Check the special!
Christy MayJanuary 30, 2015No valet. My car went missing! Owner disavowed any responsibility, showed no compassion, offered no consideration and then hung up on me. An absolute NIGHTMARE!!!!!!! Yucky food, drafty basement.
- Sorry about the other promotion. Free apps are 5p-7p, 9:30p-Close
Melanie PalaigosJuly 29, 2012OMG! Even with a reservation it took over 45 minutes to be seated! UGH!!!
