The food is always great here. Appetizers were the stars. Main courses were good. For the prices the service was off. Maybe a bad night but still delicious food.

This place is a local favorite. Food is fantastic, but reservations need to be planned way in advance. They do have a few spots bar seating for walk-ins though. Highly recommended!

Frances is a very fine restaurant. The dishes were very good to excellent, but it felt like everything was overly flavored -too many flavors with no simple foods to balance out the experience. Service was very good. The noise level was way too high to have a five star experience

This was our one special meal while in SF on a trip - it was great! We got the chefs tasting menu and each of the 7 dishes were excellent. We could tell there was something extra about the dishes, a careful balance of flavors that's nearly impossible to replicate at home.

A well curated dining experience with a fantastic, eclectic staff and beautiful dishes. The prix fixe is well balanced, with a great mix of fish, meats, but also pastas and vegetables. A must try!
