Francelli's in Long Beach

Whenever possible, I try to schedule a meal with my son when i have a meeting or some reason to be in Long Beach. This time, we hooked up for a very early dinner or late lunch. I chose Francelli's, a long standing Italian restaurant at 3404 E 4th St Long Beach CA 90804. I ordered the Chicken Ricotta. Because it such an odd time for a meal, 3:30pm, I believe, we pretty much had the place to ourselves. It was great to hear about what his classes were like. The food is good. Now that we have had the pleasure of eating handmade pastas around town and around the world, we can appreciate the old school American style Italian food. Mostly, it was fun to have a meal with my son, chick seems to have become less frequent as time marches forth.
