At Francesca’s Italian Kitchen we are passionate about authentic Italian cuisine and hospitality.  We only use the freshest produce and the finest quality local and imported ingredients.  Our chefs specialise in Italian cuisine and prepare every dish with careful skill and a love of Italian cooking.  Our must try dishes include our renowned polenta fries, beef cheek gnocchi and wood fired pizza.

To accompany our food, we have a wide selection of beverages to enjoy.  Our wine list includes many Italian and local NZ wines and we offer an extensive range of craft beers, spirits and cocktails.  We are proud to serve Allpress Coffee.

We are located right next door to the Isaac Theatre Royal on Gloucester Street, an ideal location to take in a lunch or dinner before catching a show.
