Heard about St. Francis from a friend and have been meaning to try it for a while now. We finally made it out and weren't disappointed. It's one of our new favorites. (Honestly every restaurant that has any sort of association to the LGO group turns out to be great in our experience, so we weren't surprised)
Decor is modern, atmosphere is great. We were there on a Tuesday night and the place was packed. They only take reservations for large parties so we had about a 30 min wait which we spent drinking on the outside patio. They have a bar along the front of the restaurant that opens up to both the restaurant inside and the patio outside, which is a really nice touch and adds to the atmosphere.
The food is upscale comfort food I guess? We started with the baked goat cheese app. It was flavorful and the pesto was such a good touch. The toasted bread was a little hard imo.
For dinner we had a bottle of the malbec which was outstanding. Both my wife and I thought it was one of the best $35 bottles (restaurant price obv) that we've ever had. We shared the burger and the pork chop. The burger was a perfect medium rare which made me happy. The pork chop was great and the polenta had a hint of horseradish. I couldn't have been happier. There wasn't any part of the meal we didn't think was perfect.
Oh, and for dessert have the sticky pudding. It's out of this world.
Overall it was a perfect night. Plus we felt like the prices were really reasonable. One caveat, as some others have said, it's a hopping place and is pretty loud inside. We love that, but we were commenting while there how our parents probably wouldn't like dining there because it's not a quiet relaxing place..We'll definitely be back though :)
