Thirty Years of Family Cooking

Frank Carlisle opened Frankie's in 1993 with cherished family recipes and a simple belief: great food brings people home. More than 30 years later, nothing about that has changed.

I love Frankies so much. Me and my family have been going to Frankies for around 9 years now. The food is amazing and the waitress Carol and hostess are always the kindest. They always remember my drink order and are always super kind to everyone. The atmosphere is very nice and always super clean.

First Visit – A Wonderful Experience. This was our first time dining at Frankie's Italian Kitchen, and from the moment we were greeted to the time we paid the bill, the entire experience was truly delightful. The service was warm and attentive, creating a welcoming atmosphere right from the start.

We were looking for an authentic Italian restaurant for a small family group to celebrate a couple of birthdays. We needed to eat a little earlier than the average dinner time, so we were looking for a place that was open before 5 pm. Thankfully, Frankie's was open at 4 pm.

Really good food. I mean REALLY good. I ordered the primavera fettuccine (seasoned fettuccini noodles with veggies) and was totally shocked at how good the plate was. Not too oily, perfectly seasoned with plenty of fresh vegetables.
