Franco’s
About Franco’s
Franco's restaurant has been a London institution since the last war, and now that this Mayfair stalwart has enjoyed a full refurbishment it has absolutely embraced the 21st century. Bright green awnings welcome you to the classic Edwardian building. Inside, the elegant 1940's-inspired décor is bright and modern, with light woods, off-white walls and comfy upholstered dining chairs. Fresh authentic ingredients are flown in from Italy and the Mediterranean for the authentic Italian menu. The homemade bread wins rave reviews. You may like to try starter of octopus salad with fennel and orange, main course of slow-roasted pork belly with Jerusalem artichokes and mandarin-flavoured sauce or simple meat or fish from the grill, and dessert of white chocolate and coffee bean mousse with Galliano sauce. The service is young and swift, and the wine list a winner, too.
