Carmine's Italian Restaurant

Francesco's not Franco's ! Don't go by past reveiws this is not Franco's but Francesco's the BEST Italian food I've had in a long time. I'm not just talking the run of the mill I mean true Italian. Specials every night, the veal is out of this world. Do try this one and i'm sure it will be on your favorites list.

This Place has a new Owner for the past 3 years, that it really made a difference. \t\nThe Restaurant is now called FRANCESCO'S ON JONESTOWN ROAD\t\n\t\nCarmine the Owner, is a native of Napoli in Italy, and he has made the restaurant very cozy, and the food is real ITALIAN food from Italy not Italian from NY.\t\n\t\nMy favorite is the Veal Santimbocca over Angel Hair. Veal Prosciutto Mozzarela and Fresh Spinach! Who needs anything else.\t\n\t\nThe pizzas are also excellent, and he will be glad and proud to make you an individual pizza like in Napoli if he is around and you special order it.\t\n\t\nHAVE A GREAT DINNER!\t\nAlex Prada\t\n

We were visiting from out of town (Raleigh) and wanted a good Italian restaurant--We found it!!! This place has the best Gnocchi's in NC!!! The meat sauce was sooo good and the fresh bread was amazing. The service was great--waitress was very friendly and the food came out quick!!! The portion sizes were huge, we were sad we could not take our left overs with us (our hotel did not have refrigerators in the rooms)
