Trattoria Francesca, situated at 83/85 Grochowska St. in the Grunwald district of Poznan, came to life in early 2023, almost by serendipity. As the owner of the renowned “Wszyscy Święci” establishment on Ratajczaka Street in Poznan, the owner found himself contemplating the opening of another venue, though uncertain about the concept. Fate intervened when he stumbled upon available space in Grunwald, and without hesitation, he seized the opportunity to embark on this culinary venture and ended up with one of the best Italian restaurants in Poznan.
The vision was simple yet heartfelt – to establish a welcoming haven in Grunwald, adorned with delectable cuisine and contemporary design. It was only fitting that the culinary journey led him to Italy, where charming trattorias reign supreme, offering delightful gastronomic experiences. The essence of Trattoria Francesca lies in the meticulous selection of Italian ingredients, ensuring the highest quality in every dish they serve. Their pasta artisans handcraft each batch every morning, setting the stage for an authentic Italian culinary adventure.
At the heart of their offerings is the Pizza Romana, distinguished by its compact structure and perfectly balanced crispy edges. Departing from convention, they use Pelati tomatoes instead of the traditional San Marzano variety, infusing the pizzas with a unique and tantalizing flavor profile. Yet, Trattoria Francesca is more than just a haven for pizza and pasta enthusiasts; it’s a culinary odyssey that extends to encompass a diverse array of main courses and sumptuous desserts, including the iconic cannoli and tiramisu
And what is Italian cuisine without a touch of spirited indulgence? The bar is stocked with the finest selection, featuring some of the best Aperol Spritz in town and a curated array of wines from around the world. This is merely the commencement of their gastronomic journey with new things to come in 2024. Trattoria Francesca is where each dish tells a story, and every visit promises a taste of the warm embrace of Italian hospitality and highly recommend you give them a try!
