Frankie's Restaurant Arthur Avenue

Introduced some friends to the Little Italy known as Arthur Ave, and they were bedazzled by the carby-ness of it all. Frankie's was pretty much the perfect capper to a day of tomatoes and herbs, with its cozy brick walls, low lighting and oodles of pasta options. Throw in the servers with Rat Pack-type accents, and what's not to love? We gorged on: - Spicy Rigatoni Alla Vodka: Proper white-people spicy too, with plenty of calabrian chili to make my tongue sing Verdi - Orrechiette Sausage Broccoli Rabe: Among the heartiest of the most popular pasta offerings, and one of my personal favs. This one was loaded with sausage and greens, which married perfectly with all that rabbit ear-shaped gluten - Spaghetti Aglio e Olio: For the little one in our crew, who promptly fed her forehead as mu

I placed an order with Frankie’s today, and they were a little backed up because of all the orders they had. The management team was very accommodating and apologetic when my food came out late. I truly appreciate their professionalism and hospitality. The food was amazing, and I’ll definitely be back. Thank you for the great service!

For the price, the portion was basically a small sauce cup filled with meat — definitely not worth it. Overall, everything else — the se

This was my first time at Frankies and the service was exceptional. Desa, my waitress was very hospitable and kind. The steak, penne à la vodka, and sauted spinach were well cooked and delicious. The tiramisu was the best that I have ever had. I would recommend this restaurant to my friends and family.

Very happy we have such a cute restaurant in our community. Food was delicious, got seated in no time on a Saturday early evening. I enjoyed 2 Red-Sangrias and I was ready to dance :) The Chicken Parm- Allá Vodka, chef’s kiss. Drinks were great food delish. Definitely coming back !
