   Really sad meal. Disappointing. After first learning about frank and lil frankies 10 years ago I was finally in NYC with enough time to try frank. And during truffle season. My wife and I dined in last night. Overall was bad. Seated quickly by a friendly lady from the bar. Then the male waiter was indifferent to us. Not explaining the menu, offering, or being the least bit friendly or welcoming. He was only really friendly one time after I tipped 33 bucks at the end because I didn't feel right tipping what I thought it was worth. Tiny risotto portion. Not a grain of salt in the dish. None on table and no available waiter to ask. So ate tiny portion of the worst tasting risotto as my main course I've ever had. Even with truffle add on at thirty bucks. Ouch. Wife's pasta was pretty good. I had to eat some of it to try and feel full. Drinks were both good. Best part of the meal. I'm sorry folks but don't get your hopes up like we did. The food we selected was marginal. Service uncaring and didn't even ask how we liked it.

   We’ve been going to Frank since it opened in 1998 and still love going there for their delicious pasta dishes! Lots of great memories.

   Overpriced, overcooked pasta. Many other places in NYC to get good italian.

   I had one person out of 8 that was 10 minutes late to our reservation. The server decided to sit another group without a reservation at my table. We got seated over an hour later. I understand their policy but one person sitting down a few minutes later has no effect.

   Food was excellent service was adequate the worse part of the whole afternoon was that the music in the Resturant Area was way to load and way to funky for a resturant serving classical Italian.

   The food at Frank is always delicious and has been consistent for years. It is a fun restaurant with good music which can be a little loud when it’s busy later at night but that’s the point. Kale Caesar is amazing. The pasta so yummy. Portion sizes are large. Cocktails are well crafted. Always a good time.

   Frank is a gem. It’s in the East Village, so a bit off the beaten tourist path. Food is great and portions are good. Charming interior and a decent patio if the weather is good. Love this place!

   Superb - the quintessential NYC experience! first time at this location but probably my favorite now. Spaghetti Limone for the win.

    Love Frank. It’s consistently a vibe and incredible food. Reasonably priced and big portions.
