Francesco's Cafe Italia 20 Miraleste Plaza, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA 90275

"This place has been here for as long as I can remember. I used to come here when I was in highschool, and they have always been the spot to buy the best baguettes. The sandwiches are fantastic as well. I've never been disappointed when coming here. You local folks around the Palos Verdes San Pedro area if you haven't tried it you are missing out."

"Ordered via DoorDash, the restaurant called immediately and left a very blunt message saying “call us back now” with no name or information. So I called and the woman who answered was said they were out of the specific dish with no explanation, didn’t give me any other options that I could chose from and told me I should cancel my order. She was very rude and did not have great customer service. Had problems last time I ordered, too.. don’t recommend."

"We like to eat here for the variety of Persian and Italian food, but maybe they offer too much. Sometimes quality will suffer when you try to do too much. My pizza kinda tasted like a frozen pizza, but it was still good. My husbands lamb chops were delicious, just a little too salty for my taste. My daughters beef kabob was the best, melt in your mouth tender! I enjoyed my house salad, loved that it was chopped. Service was excellent. Took great care of us! We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town, but I don’t think I’ll order the pizza."

"I just discovered this place as I am new to the area. But it is very conveniently close to my house. Yesterday I went in and got a ham & cheese sandwich. Not so good... with good intentions and in hopes of finding a convenient food option in the neighborhood, I figured I would try their pizza. So, I came back today. The menu is on the wall to the right when you walk in. Since I was ordering to go for a family of five, it would have been so much easier not to memorize the menu because the girl taking orders was all the way at the other end of the restaurant, where you can not see the menu and would not walk twenty feet to take an order... So, I ordered a four topping pizza: Pineapple, ham, olive & feta. They were out of feta, so instead of going to the other side of the restaurant to figure out what I wanted instead of feta, I took a three topping pizza. When I got home, the pizza was undercooked with the dough melting from the middle, it had practically no sauce and did not have olives. Literally the worst pizza I ever had in my entire life. I had throw it away because none of the kids wanted anything to do with it. I have no idea how this place can stay open. I would not suggest this establishment and I won't be going back."
