Touted as casual dining in a sophisticated, trattoria ambiance, each individual Francesca's restaurant has become ingrained in its community and tailors both its menu and special events, such as exquisite wine dinners, to match the tastes and energy of its guests. The consistency is in the amazing food, great service and even better prices. Mia Francesca has received numerous awards, including being voted Chicago's #1 Italian restaurant by Time Out magazine.
