Had very good food. The atmosphere was very homie and Italian. Prices were very fair and the portions were big. I had the spaghetti and meatball. Which was pretty good. The only knock is the garlic bread. Needs more to it. Pretty bland. All in all was very good and satisfying. We will definitely come back

My big mistake was I didn’t take a photo of my order.

I looked up best Italian food in los alamitos area this place popped up. They are fantastic and truly authentic. My girlfriend and I ordered Stuffed mushrooms, Soup of the day (lentil soup), Antipasto salad, Chicken parm, Stuffed shells, and Cioppino. A bread basket comes with it as well. I kid you not… EVERY SINGLE ITEM was top notch! The food was piping hot ready within 15 minutes for pickup. And they even helped my girlfriend bring the food to the car. The price is remarkable for getting 5 star food. I will continue to order from here hands down. Thank you Franco’s for your amazing food and outstanding hospitality!! Xoxo

I was with a group celebrating a birthday. Their choice. It was my first time. I ordered the Flounder. The fish was mushy, and the soup was tepid. The dessert was Tiramisu, shared by all, and excellent! I only have compliments for our female server. She was good.

Family owned italian restaurants never go wrong. MUST TRY! The restaurant is neither too big nor too small, it’s cozy enough. The server is very friendly and welcoming I would give her 10 stars for service if possible. I would say the bread they give before meals is the best in town. The garlic spread is just heavenly. We had chicken&spinach risotto and spinach&gorgonzola ravioli – rich and flavorful! and it’s even very affordable! Oh and we also had butternut squash soup, which was special soup of the day, and it was super good too. It goes well with bread too. I wanted to bring the soup & bread home… haha

Franco’s Italian Restaurant has the feel of a small family business and the warm, friendly, cozy character to go with it. Upon entering the establishment, you are greeted with a welcoming smile as you are lead to your table. Well worn chairs and tables with paper tablecloths are indications of a casual family atmosphere and great Italian food.

Very unassuming on the outside but full of great service and bold flavors on the inside. Everything from the bruschetta to the sea bass was phenomenal. I had the chilean sea bass special, my mom had the cod special, and my grandmother had the spaghetti and meatballs. By the end of the meal we all were sharing food because everything tasted so delightful. Our server and the other restaurant workers were very friendly and attentive. We originally came here because my original farewell dinner plans fell through, this was definitely much better! Will definitely be back here next time I’m in town.

Food is hit or miss. The prices are reasonable. We used them for catering a few time since their prices beat other competitors. Every time we order from them they always forget an item or an entrée. I’ve come back and no apologies. Never again.

Food is tasty and prices are reasonable. Service is good and staff is helpful. Have had dinner on a number of occasions here. We do enjoy our meals. Small restaurant located in a strip mall…not fancy and informal. Lots of specials to choose from. Menu is extensive. If you want homemade tasting Italian food, this is a good place to find it. Sauces and pastas are very good. Worth a visit.
