    Went for Saturday lunch. Food was excellent. We chose between lunch menu and Al La carte I had the lunch menu with a haddock soup to start followed by mussels and cod. Both were excellent. Others tried the Ham which was superb and Portobello Mushrooms went down a treat as well. Service was top notch as you would expect and good value.

    The waiter was not well trained, there were dozens of fruit flies flying around the tables and food while we ate, the food came very quickly so hardly any gap between starter and main and there was also very little difference between the starter and main in terms of taste. Very different to the first time we visited approx 18 months ago

    This restaurant is truly a hidden gem. I absolutely couldn’t fault the place and the quality of service. Exceptional and exceeded my expectations by a huge way. Not only was the service impeccable but it was only outdone by the calibre of the food. We couldn’t have asked for better. Wow! Keep up the amazing effort.

    We are staying at the St. James Club from our reciprocal club (The Queen City Club) in Cincinnati, Ohio (USA). Our home city is a refined and innovative restaurant hub, so our palates have become quite used to exquisite cuisine and the dinner we enjoyed at Francatelli’s did not disappoint us! Our starters, mains, and desserts were all delicious and the attentive service and quiet ambiance just added to the experience. Bravo/Brava.

    Apart from one guest thinking it is acceptable to have the phone on loud speaker while other guests are having dinner, and forcing the host to call their attention to the fact, all was perfect.
