Amazing vibes, great food and drinks and happy hour deals. Probably the nicest looking space I’ve been in Jersey City! It’s so nice that they seem to change their menu pretty often - the spring risotto was incredible so I’m sad it’s gone though! The burger was really good flavor-wise but it was a two thin patty medium-well done burger (I generally prefer a thick medium rare!)
Frankie is MY FAVORITE place in Jersey City, or anywhere for that matter, my fiance and I come here several times a week, we love it so much we got engaged here. The food is incredible and fresh, the ambiance and vibe is top notch, and the staff/service is really the best part. Great wine and cocktails too! Some of our favorites are the kimchi fried chicken, seafood or veggie curry, broccolini salad, and a really good double cheeseburger, but we have loved almost everything on the menu. Some of our favorite cocktails are the Lovely Creature and Above the Clouds! We also love their orange wine selection too. Trust me, this place is awesome.
Dinner with friends is perfect at Frankie’s. Their food is delicious, and their atmosphere is totally fun. The best part of our meal was the appetizers. We had the labneh, which is a must-have. The lamb sausage roll was another highlight and a perfect dish to split. For dinner, my girlfriend raved about the fish and chips, saying it was one of the best she’s ever had. One of the best parts of Frankie’s was their hospitable host and waiter. They were nice, attentive and helpful. We got hot sitting outside during our meal and they moved us inside without any fuss. 10/10! I’m definitely bringing friends here again.
Throughout my time there, I had a pleasant experience. I love the pink walls, the green plants, and the unique art. I enjoyed the food. The Full English breakfast I had was very filling and tasty. My drink of choice was a tumeric latter, which was lightly sweet and complemented my meal well. It was their donuts that surprised me. My boyfriend and I still had some room for dessert after our meal, so we ordered donuts. It blew my mind when I tasted the donuts. Served warm, it had chocolate sauce running down the sides. It has a soft, spongy dough. The sweetness is just right, but not overwhelming like Dunkin' Donuts. Despite everything else, I'd come back just for the donut!
If you're a fan of burrata, this Jersey City restaurant is an absolute must-visit! I had the pleasure of trying their burrata, and it was hands down the best I've ever tasted. Creamy, fresh, and bursting with flavor, it left me wanting more. The overall dining experience was delightful, and I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for exceptional cuisine. Don't miss out on this hidden gem in Jersey City!
I was a guest at the restaurant as part of a private event. The service was nice and pleasant. The atmosphere were great and the food was delicious. I enjoyed this place. Highly recommend.
We just celebrated a family birthday with 12 people and two toddlers at Frankie. Absolutely our favorite place in downtown Jersey city. The food is fantastic, the vibe and atmosphere is joyful and the staff could not be more efficient, professional, friendly and warm. Thank you for another wonderful time and looking forward to many more.
Our waitress was amazing considering there were 20 of us. The pda and chive dumplings were incredible, and the kimchi fried chicken was also fantastic. Also, I highly recommend the eye of the mind Mezcal cocktail. Spicy and fantastic. If you’re brave, you can eat the little Thai chili in the glass like I did.
