Just excellent! Everytime we go the menu has changed but the food is always outstanding. The service is great and so fun to support the local Goldstar family. One of our very favorite places.

Everything was fabulous! The filet melted like butter. The risotto was perfect. We love the aranchini, tator tots, and whipped feta with fresh pita. #whatalife

This place is adorable and the service is outstanding! They have great craft cocktails. I had the "Spice Up Your Life" and it was delicious. They also have a nice wine list. It's not extensive but a little bit of everything. I was there on a Wednesday and the bottles were half price for Wine Down Wednesday. I recommend trying the Arancini...very tasty. I also enjoyed some yummy deviled eggs. I can't wait to go back for the full dinner experience.

One of the best hidden gems in the city! The steak is amazing, as is the mezze board. We had the pork chop special this time, too, and it rocked. The staff is super friendly. It’s a great option for family-style dining where you share everything (so you can try everything!)

Second time at Frankie’s and the food was just as amazing as we remembered! We ordered the arancini balls, hummus and pita, potato tots, chicken pita, and the pasta. Every bite was delicious. The arancini balls are hands down the best I’ve ever had.
