" Hearing this place specializes in northern New Mexican cuisine, I was eager to check it out. The menu had a lot of appealing options, and I went for the bacon-wrapped jalapeños as an appetizer, which were delightful. When my main course arrived, however, I was a bit let down. My burrito was good, but it felt a bit too basic and not as authentic as I had hoped. The service was efficient, and the atmosphere, while casual, was inviting. Overall, it's worth a visit, but I hope for more traditional flavors next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" From the moment I walked into Francisca's, I was greeted with a warm smile. It's an authentic place with home-cooked meals that gives off a true cultural vibe. The combination plate is a must-try—every bite was flavorful! However, I personally believed that some dishes appeared to lack depth in flavor, but the loving atmosphere made up for it. I think I'll come back to explore their other offerings. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had such a great experience at Francisca's! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed. The staff treated me like family, and that really made an impression. I ordered their famous stuffed sopapillas, which were airy and filled with delicious refried beans and cheese. The ketchup-like salsa complemented it well. The prices were reasonable, and I left feeling satisfied. I'll highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food in Farmington! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't sing enough praises for Francisca's. The menu features authentic southern New Mexican food, and the flavors were on point. I enjoyed their green enchiladas, and I’m not exaggerating when I say they were some of the best I've had! The service was smooth; the staff chuckled at my indecisiveness and helped me choose. I can't wait to bring my family when they come to visit next month! " (*Curated Review*)

" Francisca’s is a hidden gem! I’ve been here a few times now, and I can confidently state this restaurant serves some of the best Mexican food in the area. The last time I visited, I had the combination plate with enchiladas and tamales that were bursting with flavor. The ambience is warm and inviting, and the walls adorned with local art give it a charming touch. On both occasions, I found the staff to be welcoming. Do yourself a favor and try their sopapillas; they are heavenly! If you're looking for authentic Mexican cuisine, don't skip this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Francisca’s after hearing rave reviews from friends. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, reminiscent of a family gathering. The food is presented beautifully and tastes as good as it looks! I tried the nachos with their fabulous house salsa and was blown away. The only downside was they were a little light on the toppings. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant to anyone craving authentic New Mexican food; it’s a definite must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful dining experience! Francisca's has a casual vibe and vibrant decor that instantly made me feel at home. I tried the burrito with red sauce, which was delicious and satisfying, but I did feel that they could have been more generous with the garnishments. Overall, a solid 4-star experience; I'll be coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)
