The dining area is pretty big and the deli, comprising both sit down and carry out sections, is set up a little like a food court with several different counter areas and food types, mainly as you may guess focusing on Italian specialties, soups, salads and bread and pastries.\n\nThe server was attentive but the food was slow to come out of the kitchen; she did check on us and let us know and that was appreciated. We had a Chicken Parmesan sub, a triple decker BLT,Linguini with Marinara sauce,and a turkey and swiss sub + 3 ice teas and 5 pieces of fried dough for dessert.\n\nThe BLT was tasty and well executed; the Turkey sub was just fine but nothing stood out; Lettuce, tomato, turkey, swiss cheese on a roll. My youngest daughter finished all of the Spaghetti and said it was good. My oldest daughter had issues with the Chicken Parm sub; I guess when it's a \"Sub\" instead of a \"sandwich\" there is tomato on the \"sub\" which she was not expecting, doesn't like and had to remove. \n\nThe fried dough was not what i was expecting; I was thinking zeppole but it had a different name and was thicker and a little chewy. It wasn't bad but it wasn't something I personally would order again; I am sure there are people who like it. I was not fond of the texture, but that's an opinion. \n\nAll in all, pretty good food - we could have saved money by ordering one of the many daily specials but decided to get what we wanted for a few dollars more. The food at Francesco's is quite good, generally - I love their pizza and the donuts and other bakery items are really good.I did not hate anything I tried today, but nothing swept me off my feet either.\n\nTotal tab for the 3 sandwiches, pasta with marinara sauce, 3 ice teas and 5 orders of the fried dough came to $38.96 and then add on the tip, so about $11 person including tip, maybe a little more than I would ordinarily spend on lunch for three kids who are just as happy eating hot dogs, but probably right on par for a lunch with friends or co-workers.\n\n**Remember, they are NOT open on MONDAYS**"^^ .
