Food was very good. Service was decent. Ambience was nice, but it was just VERY loud. It’s a small restaurant and there just happened to be like a little birthday party going on beside us

We had only a few bites, but they were very good. Homemade pita was delicious as was the FUL it came with (a fava bean hummus). The Cacio e Pepe is not traditional a all, but still very good with a little truffle and some definite heat. The wine selection is very good.

One of my local favorites and they didn’t disappoint! The food was amazing and the service was excellent, plus the extra warmth of a family owned and ran restaurant.

We went to Frankie’s on a Saturday night around 6:30pm, but we originally had reservations for 7:15. When we got there, there were not many people inside and they were able to seat us right away at the bar. The bar is fairly sizable, so it seems like odds of getting a seat at the bar would be high on any night. The whole establishment is pretty small and intimate; it was very pleasant. The bartender was attentive, gave great suggestions for what to order, and was friendly! The food we ordered was all above average and fairly priced for the portion size. This was a great little spot for date night. We’ll definitely be back!

Our family took us for the first time and my husband and I booked dinner the same evening to return the following week. Everything was so tasty and flavorful. The customer service was great and the ambiance was friendly and fun. You must try their steak!

Fantastic as usual. We went for my wife's birthday and it was awesome. Steak night is a great deal and was absolutely delicious. We had the Mezze Board and I couldn't recommend it more highly. They have killer cocktails (Bryce is a star) and the Gem Salad that came with our dinner was out of this world. Great wine list as well. I couldn't recommend more highly. What a diamond of a place.
