| - Baby Sis: We're going to St. Francis.
Me: It's Friday night. Church?
Baby Sis: No (stupid, implied). St. Francis Restaurant.
Me: Oooh! Okay!
Since the little sister is paying for dinner, I'm not complaining. =)
It was closer to 8pm by the time we made out to St. Francis. My sister called ahead for reservations. Despite there being no line out front, it was pretty packed.
The ambiance is intimate, a great place for a first date. But, I'd suggest sitting away from the entrance, as it could get potentially cold and the tables closest to the door just felt awkward.
For a starter, we got the fingerling potatoes. I'd order those again. Main meal for me was the roasted chicken. For the sister, the pot roast. Both were great choices. As for dessert? Cheesecake in the jar! Delish!
I even bought a loaf of bread to take home. They have excellent bread! Crusty outside and a moist, chewy inside. This carb lover was a happy girl!
As far as first impressions go, St. Francis did great. Looking forward to the next time I'm in Phoenix, to try more items on the menu.
