Francies

Stopped in for a Tuesday lunch.  I had the mushroom/swiss burger, my wife had a crab cake sandwich (special of the day) - both about $9 and came with fries.  The burger was great and the crab cake sandwich was really good.  Our server was friendly and prompt.  Great place, will be back sometime.

Awesome food. I was thinking it would be more like a bar but its more sports bar/restaurant to me. Very clean and lost of TVs.  Husband got French dip and I got mushroom and Swiss burger.  Both were fantastic.  All the waitresses were working hard and we didn't wait long at all.  Would totally go back!

I have only been to Francies once but I was surprised at how nice it was inside. The menu was your typical sports bars' but everyone that ordered liked what they got. I went with the chicken philly and it was pretty solid. I will need to try the burger as Lindsay A. suggests. I blogged about my experience so feel free to check out my review and pictures below for this and many other Des Moines restaurants.
