    Our dishes were outstanding and plentiful. We will enjoy them for a second meal with the leftovers. Our server, John was informative and very personable. We’ll be back!

    Food not as good anymore. Lobster ravioli not as advertised on menu and not a good value. Also the menu is not accurate on here.

    This was probably THE BEST Italian food we’ve found since leaving New York! Our entrees were delicious, and the sauce was excellent. The ambience perfect! Our only complaint was our server coming back to our table 3x to question what we had ordered…and still even brought out a white wine instead of my hubbys Cabernet! I havent stopped thinking about Frank & Dinos!

    Today’s experience was very disappointing. There was ONE server and several folks throughout the restaurant who tried to assist. It took a while for our drinks and food. The food was not good today as it normally is. The chicken marsala had NO flavor and taste like it was rushed when it was being prepared. The only thing that was good was the salad and meatballs and you can’t really mess that up. I am sad that the turnover there leaves one server and bad service. I don’t think I’ll be returning anytime soon. I am thankful for Claire who compensated us and assisted the server.

    The Caesar salad was fantastic. The meatball appetizer outstanding(needed salt). The complementary bread was delicious. It had a great crunch, but was soft in the middle. We ordered the Del Mar as the entrée it lacked flavor and was kind of bland.
