Franco on Melrose

Franco on Melrose provides its guests with an uncompromising and seductive experience. From the time you enter, to the time you order, to the time you depart, you will find yourself within the greatest secret hideaway in West Los Angeles.

Franco on Melrose is unique, in that its Owner and Executive Chef Franco De Dominicis designed the restaurant in such a way so that guests walk through the kitchen to get to their table. This presents each guest with the opportunity to meet the Chef personally and to bask in the amazing aromas being cooked up by the sous chefs behind the counter.

After the guest passes through the kitchen, they enter into a beautiful courtyard, designed with every detail in mind. A private room, creating a more personal space for guests with large parties, is located directly to the right of the main dining terrace. Each guest is greeted by their personal host and escorted to their table.

The experience continues, because at Franco on Melrose every dish is prepared with you in mind. From special requests to special selections, Franco on Melrose is prepared and willing to create and inspire your culinary palate every evening.

The Franco on Melrose Menu has been revered as a work of art by many guests and culinary connoisseurs. Every dish presented has a story and every ingredient has a purpose. Chef De Domincis is most certainly a deliberate Chef, in that he engages the exact ingredients to attain an exact result. A result that makes for the best Italian cuisine West of Rome and East of Napoli.

Guests who walk through the Franco on Melrose door may go home after their experience, but they know that they are part of the De Dominicis family and have a second home at their table on the terrace. Manga Bene, Vive Bene. Eat Well, Live Well.
