Here's what Benny Salamone (owner, and one of 3 generations of salamone's you can find working the restaurant almost every day) has to say about "franchesco's®"
"franchesco's" has been a stateline icon for over 21 years and we just keep getting better. We've grown from a pizzaria into one of the finest restaurants in the area.
We have the largest menu in Rockford (along with the largest portions) so, if you're looking for a place to please everybody, (or maybe your significant other), this is the place for you.
You can't get a better steak in Rockford, or fresher seafood, and our full italian menu of secret family recipe is 'molto bene!'
If you're looking for "the place to meet," swing by Benny's Lounge after work to unwind with our bartenders, who take the art of mixing very seriously. We have over thirty different types of vodka, a great selection of beers on tap, and close to 100 different brands of wine, including some you won't find anywhere else in Rockford.
There's free, live entertainment every friday and saturday night with the musical stylings of Harlan Jefferson and Rick Burns, along with our famous Friday night fish fry and saturday prime Rib Special. It just doesn't get any better than this."
Bravissimo SERVICE, Splendido ATMOSPHERE, AND il Grandioso MENU… Benvenuto al Franchesco's
