Loved Frankies- the decor was light and bright, the service was attentive and the food was fabulous - great quantity on plates for sharing! Loved the peking duck, the Japanese style fried chicken and just the right amount of kick in the pork bao buns!
Food was great but table was too small for 3 people
Food was Amazing and wait staff very attentive.
Cocktails en pointe
I visited Frankie with friends and really enjoyed the fact that we could sit and chat comfortably without having to yell over the din of the crowd. Food was great, so was the service.
Food was very tasty but service was appalling. Ordered a drink on arrival and then had to wait 30 minutes and ask 3 more times for the drink while watching others arriving later being served their drinks. Server assiduously avoided eye contact when serving others and while it appeared he forgot the first time made no attempt to take my drink order at any other time. To the restaurant’s credit, when it was brought to the manager’s attention the drink price was removed from the bill. It may have just been a bad night but I won’t be hurrying back.
Food was amazing, some things were a little smaller then expected and some things didn’t come out to the table, good service and had a great night!
Service was slow but food excellent.
We were originally seated near the door and on a cold night, it was not very pleasant. But thanks to a beautiful young waitress, we got moved to a lovely and warm corner. The food is delicious and very filling.
a little pricy but very nice . we will be going back
Outstanding service in a stunning venue. We can’t wait to come back and try more from the menu. The food was delicious... every single dish! Super friendly staff who went above and beyond to make our dining experience memorable. So good!
Great food, service. Good cocktails too. Can't wait to come back.
Great food, great service. We are definitely coming back again.
We had an 8 pm booking, the food came out quick which was good but the staff did not tell us that the kitchen was closing. It was 9 pm we asked to order desert, and the staff said everything was closed and we couldn’t order anything more. Very disappointing that the kitchen close to an hour after we arrived. We should have been made aware that the kitchen was closing.
Great choice flavours and value, service could just go up a notch with table maintenance and getting orders correct.
I would go back - perhaps an extra staff member and a smile from some waiting staff would change our score
Frankies was a wonderful dinning experience with beautiful food ,awesome flavors , great service and amazing staff l will be back for sure to try more of the menu and some more of the great cocktails .
Keep up the great work
It was our first time at Frankie & wow it did not disappoint. From the moment we walked through the door the staff were very warm & engaging. The food was amazing & the service on point. We will definitely be back 😊
Great food and great service. Will be definitely visiting again
Absolutely amazing!!!! Best feed in a long time! Can’t wait to go back.
The menu had a great selection and our food was beautiful as was the wine.
Frankie is a beautiful old building done so tastefully in a modern theme. Staff were friendly.
Lovely fresh and very tasty food. Everyone on our table enjoyed their meals very much
Lovely gorgeous building. Comfy chairs. Friendly staff with a very knowledgeable bartender. Great spirit selection, wine list could have some more interesting wines to suit Asian fusion when thinking about pairing. (Personal taste) for instance Chablis work well with Asian flavours as they don’t get too over powered, but suit people who aren’t interested in the typical Tropical fruit forward wines like eden valley Riesling’s/ Pinot gris.
The baos were amazing, the eggplant/ popcorn chicken & short ribs just lacked flavour. There was just nothing that memorable about them. I think this issue could be easily fixed.
Thank you. Terrific staff, service and food. We'll be back.
Absolutely loved it! We tried Frankie for the first time as our usual Geelong fav Zigfrids has closed. Needed to find a replacement. Frankie ticks all the boxes. Excellent staff and delicious food.
Great food. Had 5 sharing dishes and all were fantastic
Amazing food, attentive service, on trend decor, great price. The perfect choice for a special night out.
Excellent food great service would highly recommended to anyone
It would be great if the kitchen was open later to allow another serving / helping . We would have spent double. Food Great flavors .
Very friendly welcome, efficient and courteous service, food was interesting and well-prepared, the room was impressive and I look forward to a return
Excellent food, excellent service.
Will definitely be back...
What a lovely change. We are just 2 old 60+ ladies who like to eat out. Arrived and seated very quickly with lovely attentive staff. Menus and water straight to the table but not rushed at all. Drinks ordered and again wonderful service which in itself is a nice change from a lot of venues around Geelong. Food ordered and a sit back to enjoy a drink...music not to loud but a bright happy atmosphere. Then the food arrived. Wow...looked great and tasted even better..All share plates but good portions and wonderful flavours. Would I recommend??? YES Would I return...YES and will.
Loved our experience at Frankie friendly staff as always and beautiful food! I am a regular :)
Staff were super friendly, I’ll definitely be going here again
I have already put a review on Instagram on my post, I love everything about this restaurant, can’t wait till return
Food is definitely not up to scratch but if you want atmosphere and a good cocktail this could be the place for you.
Cocktails and food are always delicious, and the service is amazing. I definitely recommend.
Staff made us feel so welcome from the second we arrived until the second we left........ OH............and the food was amazing.
We had been served some very pink chicken, when we acquired if it was raw we got brushed off and told to “eat around it” which was a little upsetting. Other than that the restaurant was nice
The food here is delicious. They were also very accomodating of my food sensitivities and were able to adapt a couple of items to suit. The menu contains an awful lot of garlic!
Peking duck was barely warm, massaman had little taste, toilets dirty and not stocked.
The building is a gem, and the food was great! Definitely will go back!
