| - I have very mixed feeling about this place. The individual dishes were good, but there were a number "misses" that bothered me about the place.
Some of the seats do not have back support, unless someone is sitting behind you, likely a stranger. That is weird! When I made mention of it, the server just looked at me and said that's how these seat are. So, can I please get other seats??? Someone else in my group switched me and I notice him slouching throughout the meal... sorry friend.
The meal: Each dish was very nicely presented and tasted good. BUT, everything was served in rations that were very very small. Lunch consisted of 4 oz soup, half of a veg sandwich and a small hand full of tasty salad. So I was quite hungry after this lunch, which ended up costing a small fortune. BTW, the soup tasted good but someone decided it would be a fancy idea to put pomegranate seeds in it - BIG mistake. Drop the clashing seeds please.
Atmosphere is very interesting. I like the open air feeling, and the cute decor. I didn't care for the flies, but I think that is the trade-off.
I am not looking for huge portions, but I don't want to pay a ton and leave hungry. I am not looking for opulent luxury, but do want to sit comfortably.
I think this place has some real gaps in the experience it provides. I think St. Fran would benefit from a slightly more mature staff.
