Great night! Ate at the bar. Food was excellent! Must get the bread tray. Martinis were delicious. Bartender was great and very attentive. Had to try the desserts and was not disappointed. Great service all night. Enjoyed the entertainment before leaving…the singer had an amazing voice. Thank you for a wonderful evening!

We enjoyed a family birthday at Frankie’s, and it was wonderful. The servers were attentive and the food was delicious. We ate family style and started with the octopus, meatballs, and bread with dipping sauce. The warm fresh mozzarella plate was excellent. Our main course of steak, pasta, and Branzino were cooked perfectly. We finished with a slice of carrot cake, chocolate cake, and our favorite was the cannoli with pistachio cream. What a treat! Thank you for a memorable time!

Was excited to see a new Italian restaurant open in the St Pete area. I was a little nervous at first after checking their website for opening date and hours, to see several 5 star reviews posted, however they had not yet opened! Anyway, after they opened on the 12th, I decided to give it a few days and visited on the 22nd. Upon entering, the team was overly friendly. You could tell they just recently opened. They did provide complimentary valet service, however no place to self park. They had a very large bar area that seemed nice, although I opted for a table. The main dining room was nice, but being from NY having eatin at many “Chop Houses” this did not have that feel to me. The waitress was friendly, however was not accommodating to menu changes. I ordered the Tips Alfredo. I asked for the steak tips to be cooked med rare, she explain that was not an option. My dinner guest wanted to order the Veal Milanese which sounded great, however she wanted it with chicken. The waitress again said she was not able to make changes to any of the dishes. So given she was a veg, she wanted to order the side dish of Parmesan Risotto as a meal, the waitress once again said she couldn’t make changes. So we had to order 2. After the waitress left, we both discussed how strange it was to eat at this type of restaurant, very high end, yet no willingness from the chef to entertain dietary restrictions or dish modification. I’m 52 years old, and have eaten at many many restaurants from dive bars to 4 Star Michelin restaurants, I don’t recall any of them not honoring my changes. The more I thought about it, the more pissed that was about to pay about $150 for dinner and couldn’t get it my way. I then asked for a manager to express my thoughts. Two different managers came over to discuss, both did a great job with their service recover skills. The food came out before the fresh stretched mozzarella appetizer that I ordered. The Parm Risotto was excellent, sautéed spinach was cooked perfect. My dish on the other hand was a complete disappointment. Only 5 very small piece of steak, about the same size as a mushroom cap, lacked overall flavor. Not sure I would recommend this place at the moment. However I will give them another chance is 6-8 months to see if things have improved. We have just way to many great restaurants in St Pete to make this location a regular. Very disappointed.

Didn’t know what to expect, but honestly the best steak house in St Petersburg FL… Reminds me of my favorites like Berns and Charley’s, but right here in St Pete. The dirty martini with blue cheese olives was also perfect. Caymus by the glass, and charcuterie that matches anywhere on Beach Drive. I’ll be back to try the Italian food that everyone kept mentioning was the best part! How could it honestly get better lol? Will post update on that.

Grand opening night was a hit! We had reservations ahead of time and were seated promptly. Hostess staff was very friendly. Our server, Scott, was on point with menu descriptions and recommendations. Food was amazing! 10/10 recommend the pulled mozzarella, it was outstanding! We got the featured fish which was nicely portioned and delicious. The steak Alfredo was incredible, too. Finished off with carrot cake (delicious!) and tiramisu to go. Will definitely be back for round 2!!

My husband and I visited this establishment for our 12th Anniversary. We were beyond pleased with the service and the food. Everything was wonderful. Be sure to get the Wagyu Steak, and choose from the most unique knives to cut with. We will definitely be back and bringing friends with us.

Had an amazing dinner here while in town from Texas visiting friends! The food was incredible. It was such a treat! From complimentary valet parking and a live music show we felt spoiled to say the least. We started off our feast with an incredible red wine, mozzarella dish and bread basket which were to die for! The steak was cooked to perfection & you must order the brussel sprouts! Guilty pleasure was the espresso martini & tiramisu to finish the night! Will be back next time I’m in St. Pete! Thank you for great service and a fun night!

Growing up Italian was my favorite food and now marrying into an Italian family, we are very picky with Italian food. From the outside of the restaurant, to the decor and music, they got it spot on…. But more important …. The food. The bread service was amazing, it comes with a red butter sauce that is amazing and a cup of pickled vegetables. The parmesan veal was cooked perfectly, the crust was impeccable and the meat was perfectly tender. The penne with marinara was just that, it didn’t take away from the veal. The red sauce was cooked authentically. My wife had the bolognese and it was perfect, sauce, noodle and mozzarella, all authentic. The tiramisu had a scoop of espresso ice cream on top, and it was uniquely delicious! The portions are crazy big. Most importantly, it’s an authentic Italian restaurant and they nailed the food, we don’t have too many of those around, I can’t think of any that have nailed all of the above for me.
