The street is named after Francisco Llamas, a Cebuano revolutionary who was a member of Cebu's Katipunan led by Leon Kilat and whose house was sometimes used as the group's meeting place.[3]
Route description
The street begins at N. Bacalso Avenue in Barangay Basak San Nicolas beside Super Metro Basak, passes along the junction of G. Elorde Street (formerly known as Ganciang Street) which divides the said barangay with Barangay Punta Princesa and proceeds towards the Archdiocesan Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes. Upon reaching the junction of E. Sabellano Street, which is an alternative road for passengers going to south district barangays, and Tres de Abril Street, it goes on passing through several commercial and residential establishments before it reaches Barangay Tisa by passing through a small bridge which spans the Kinalumsan River. It then crosses the junction of Cabarrubias and F. Caburnay streets, curves northwest along Gaisano Capital Tisa and curves northeast as it reaches the Tisa Barangay hall. The street ends at the junction of Katipunan Street near where most of the barangay's well-known siomai and other food stores are located.
