    We always have a great experience every time we come to Frank’s. The food, atmosphere, and service is all top notch. I got the braised short rib this time and it is now my new favorite thing on the menu.

    We arrived very early for our reservation hoping to maybe find a spot at the bar while we waited but the hostess immediately knew who we were from the reservation. I had put that we were three long time girlfriends who rarely get together and are excited for our evening out - and she said how she loved that! My friends were like “is she psychic?!” And I told them that I’d included that when I made the reservation. She made us feel very special - as I’m sure she does everyone! We had been freezing after an evening at Brookgreen and she seated us near the fireplace. The entire experience was perfect - from the delicious cocktails to the amazing dinner! Franks has been a favorite of all of our for years but this was our first time coming together. A beautiful memory!

    The service was exceptional and the food was spectacular. My husband had the Lamb Shank and I had the 6 oz. Steak. One son got the duck. We left knowing we would be back.
