Food and ambiance are both excellent. Definitely the best Italian restaurant in all of temecula area The food is always fresh and meat is always special and the taste is that of the finest steak restaurants But at a leser price. The owners are always present and add to our dining experience. 5 star in our book.

What started out as an exciting evening since it was my husbands 81st birthday & his 1st day out after having knee surgery, turned out very upsetting. We arrived as a family of 6 adults & was seated in a very tight area. A small amount of garlic bread arrived after a while & when my daughter asked for more (since the meals we ordered were taken very long to arrived) she was confronted with a very rude waiter that told her she had to wait & they had other customers to tend to. When the appetizers arrived they were laughable, too funny to go into. Finally the meals arrived & we all happily started to eat. No sounds of delight came from anyone & my meal was tasteless & uneatable. I had ordered Veal with Italian ham, & when i asked the waiter where was the ham, he said he had to bring it back to the kitchen to see if he could find it. When i requested an alternate meal, he announced I would have to be charged for that too, I declined, but my generous Son-in-law insisted i order something else. By the time my meal finally arrived all had finished theirs. Moral to the story...so the few dollars " francesca's italian? kitchen" made, they really lost BIG time on my recommending your ( Diner) in my town of Temecula. One happy note..we all went back to my home & had a home-made pineapple upside down birthday cake.......my hubby's favorite!!!!!

highly reccomended,must try
