Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Franko's Italian Steakhouse offers an inviting atmosphere with consistently "amazing all around" service and delightful dishes. Guests rave about the lobster spaghetti, flavorful steaks, and generous portions. Standout servers like Billy, Danielle, and Rick enhance the dining experience. Although premium-priced, "fabulous as always" meals make it a "perfect date night restaurant."

    Had another stellar meal at Franko's. Our waiter, Rob, was excellent! We enjoyed our meal, drinks, and conversation. I always recommend this location. Do yourself a favor and get the mac n cheese!

    The food was excellent! I had the Trio Filet Medallions and they were outstanding! Our server (Dana) was amazing! Franko’s is a beautiful restaurant and a must for travelers and locals in the area! 👍. Unfortunately, I dug into my food so quickly that I forgot to get pictures. 😮

    Michael, Thank you for the 5 stars! The filet Trio is a new item and one of our favorites as you get to try most of the sauces we offer for our steaks! We are so glad you enjoyed Dana's outstanding service as well as your meal. Come back and visit us again soon!

    Cocktails were sub par for the price. Steak was ok, potatoes were horrible and cold. Overall, the service was ok, just not what we were expecting for the price range.

    Our waiter Billy was phenomenal! We arrived early in the evening so it was pretty quiet which we enjoy. The food was great and plentiful, we both brought home leftovers. The entire experience was lovely! Will definitely be back.

    Another fantastic meal. It’s called a steakhouse, but I’ve yet to try the steaks. The lobster spaghetti is PHENOMENAL. The lasagna and gnocchi are also top notch. Might try the steak next time, and there will definitely be a next time, but who knows?
    Franko's Italian SteakhouseResponded 3 days ago
    Thank you for the great review James! The steaks are definitely worth trying-we are known for our delicious Ribeye! We hope to see you again soon! Franko's Italian Steakhouse
