Reviews for Francine restaurant in Scottsdale, AZ
Wow! What a great dining experience. My wife and I were lucky to get a 5:45 pm reservation (same day) on a Saturday night. Loved... the vibe - it's definitely a place where you can dress more formally, but certainly not required. Best calamari I've ever had,grilled octopus was ????, and the cocktails were on point! The crab ravioli was delicious, my only complaint is that I wantedmore crab! The ravioli portion size was small too, so don't order that if you are really hungry. I was kind of jealous that mywife got the seabass, the presentation was amazing and it was some of the best fish I've had. To top it off, we got the appletart with vanilla bean ice cream for dessert. Overall, it was a great dining experience and the service was spectacular. Iwould highly recommend Francine to anyone looking for a fine dining experience! Read more
I loved the place. Everything about it. Staff are attentive. We’d 3 orders, calamari was the best one I tasted for my whole... life! I mean it. Steak (medium) was so gooooooood! And the chicken is so soft & full of flavor. If you’re looking for a fancyrestaurant with amazing food & fair prices here u go! Read more
My husband and I had a fantastic evening out enjoying a three course dinner. Each one of our dishes and drinks was exquisite.... Our server was so kind, taking the time to explain the options in the menu. The atmosphere was lovely! If you’re in the area,go! The calamari, ratatouille, and pork were *chefs kiss*????????

Go for the vibe, stay for the food! Francine is a beautifully designed,m fun restaurant with a great atmosphere. The casual... french farmhouse feel with soft dj beats perfectly compliments the french classics such as bone marrow and steakfrites! Wonderful wine list. A bit pricey, but considering the neighborhood, overall a good value. Dining at the bar isperfect for solo dinners, or a casual couples night. I’ll definitely be back! Read more
The hostess was kind enough to swap us to an indoor table! This place has a nice vibe and the staffs were busy, a good sign. Our... server, Dustyn, was friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, which we appreciate. The broth of the Bouillabaisse was verygood! We're happy with our mock tails, Bouillabaisse, and Chicken. All in all, a good experience at Francine. Read more
This was by far the best restaurant we’ve eaten at since staying in Scottsdale. Wish we would have found it sooner so we could... have enjoyed it twice. All the severs and hostesses were incredibly nice. Everyone gave great recommendations. We willdefinitely be back the next time we are in town. Make sure to get the yellow tail! Amazing! Read more
Please please try the octopus salad- it is the softest, most delicate octopus cooked to perfection. I could tell all the... ingredients in their dish were fresh and well prepared. The flavors were honest, clean, and true to what they are supposed tobe, with a fun little twist. The duck tasted like a perfectly seasoned and cooked duck (amazing garnish!), and the lamb thejuiciest, aromatic lamb. In terms of sides, I loved the green beans which tasted like browned butter? I really wish i had astomach big enough to taste the entire menu they offer. The cocktail and the dessert wine were on point with our meal. So prettyinside and outside as well. The atmosphere is upscale but mostly casual. Attentive staff. Would visit again 10/10. Read more
My husband and I spend the evening here and the dining experience was fantastic, the waitress was super nice and of course the... food was amazingly delicious! We had oyster and calamari for appetizer, for the main dish I got steak frites and my husband gotthe agneau, but my favorite is actually the dessert, the apple tarte. It really shocked me on how crispy the edges were, pairingwith the house-made ice cream was probably the best apple tarte I ever had in Arizona! Read more
