  • Charming
  • Good for groups
  • Neighborhood gem
Located in East Nashville - It’s New York-style Italian, thanks to Frank Castronovo and Frank Falcinelli, who’ve brought their 20-year-old celebrated Frankies 457 Spuntino south from Brooklyn, complete with the antipasti, cured meats, and housemade pasta that made the original famous. And in case you were wondering, yes, there will be meatballs. With a full bar and extensive wine and beverage program, Frankies 925 Spuntino is a true neighborhood gem. Featuring both indoor and outdoor seating, Frankies is a perfect spot for a leisure lunch, date night, or dinner with friends and family.

Burrata was a bit runny. Doesn’t need olive oil on it. The bread is delicious. Loved our entrees. Had the hot sausage and the lamb ragu dishes. The hot sausage was amazing. Now this was probably our fault, but felt like there was oiive oil on a lot of things, the bread, the olives, the Burrata. The hot sausage dish didn’t need so much butter. Just seemed like a lot. We had a great time, loved the venue and the atmosphere.

Really enjoyed the Caesar salad, meatballs, and sausage cavalletti. The service was nice and staff was friendly. The serving staff are always friendly but get the impression they need more training on basic service as appear to be first time servers. The chef and his team prepare the dishes quickly and are so delicious! The restaurant has a cool vibe but tables can be a bit close to each other in open dining area. Will continue to come back with more friends!

Overall, we had a nice time. Personal opinion, the food left some things to be desired. The Eggs Benedict had an AMAZING Potato Pave, but the protein noted in the dish was lacking and the tomato hollandaise was overpowering. The Pastrami Hash was generous in portioning all around and well balanced with the right amount of everything. The pancake left us wanting a pancake. It's not a traditional pancake in taste or texture and it felt like it would be great as a savory side versus as the sweet pancake you prepare yourself for.

Tuscan White Bean & Escarole soup was bland. Would've loved to have a protein added to the salad but they don't do that. Dissapointing.

Not only is the food and wine amazing but the entire staff knows their stuff. They never have to say I’ll check on that or let me look. Tyler is a great host and our server Lauren not only knew the menu to the ingredient but knew every drink and directed us to the perfect drinks based on what we were looking for. Top notch all around.
