“ The food was super yummy! I got the Linguini with Clams and the Marylin Merlot wine. I also tried the calamari and it was perfection. I will be coming back for sure. I love the vibe and the music. Service was good just a bit slow and it was a Tuesday evening so it was pretty empty but the food was so Delish I will be back ”
“ Run ..don't walk here!! We were on the strip sightseeing and became hungry for some great Italian food. After some research, Frankie's kept coming up in our search! Upon parking we realized it was a Frank Sinatra themed restaurant. Not sure on ownership? When we walked in we felt transported back to the good old rat pack days of Vegas. Dim lighting, booth seating .. pictures and artwork of Frank. Then we were immediately greeted by our server who was absolutely attentive and eager to please. Helping with dietary concerns and dish recommendations. Lastly, the food.. incredible and amazing don't even begin!! The hot antipasto hit all the flavors, the seafood pasta was one of the best we had! The kids had pizza and it was NY worthy! I highly recommend this place if you want delicious, fresh, authentic Italian in the LA area. It will be a staple for us when we visit the area! ”
“ Food is amazing, servers are great, atmosphere absolutely wonderful. My only slight critique... the bread is meh and portions are a little small. ”
“ Great Italian restaurant on Melrose! As soon as my friend and I walked in, we knew we found an authentic Italian place! The staff was very welcoming and the place mostly had regulars we could tell know the staff well. The food was very tasty and some of the best gnocchi I've had - so soft it melts in your mouth! I highly recommend that. They do give complimentary bread which is nice, but it was a very simple bread you could buy at the store. Wish they did a garlic bread! Make sure to ask for olive oil too as they only brought out butter originally for us. Ambiance is dark for dinner and would be a nice spot for a date or initiate gathering. ”
“ Was catching up with a friend and we decided to try out Frankie's. The restaurant was pretty quiet and it seemed like the other tables were regulars joking with the waiters and waitresses and having a great time. They started us out with some bread which was decent and then we got the ricotta gnocchi and Julia's grilled chicken. The gnocchi was so good and the chicken was delicious. At the time I was really craving garlic bread so I was a little sad they didn't have any on the menu but otherwise we had a really great time. ”
