Bronx · Est. Neighborhood Dining
A neighborhood restaurant on Gun Hill Road where every plate is made with care, every guest is treated like family, and the flavors stick with you long after the last bite.
Our Story
Francis M Black was born from a simple conviction: the best meals don't need pretense. Tucked into a corner of Gun Hill Road, we've built a space where honest ingredients, generous portions, and warm hospitality are the whole point.
Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or settling in for a long evening with people you love, our kitchen puts the same care into every dish — because good food is how we show we care.
From the Kitchen
Every item on our menu is crafted to satisfy — no shortcuts, no filler, just honest cooking done right.
Signature
Our namesake creation — a generous, thoughtfully composed plate that tells you everything you need to know about our kitchen.
Fresh
Seasonal produce, hearty grains, and house-made dressings — light enough for midday, filling enough to keep you going.
Sweet
Because a meal isn't complete without a moment of indulgence. Our desserts are made fresh daily — don't skip them.
What to Expect
Every dish is built with intention — balanced flavors, quality ingredients, and a touch of creativity that makes each visit memorable.
Solo diner, couple's night out, or a full table of friends — our space welcomes everyone with the same warmth and attention.
We believe food is love made visible. That's why every plate that leaves our kitchen carries the full weight of our commitment.
