REVIEWS OF Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Basildon

Sue B (24 June 2008)

We went to Frankie and Benny's in Basildon, which I have to say, is my favourite place for dining out. The atmosphere, music and staff were all excellent. Our waitress last night asked us why we had chosen F&B's, I explained that as it was my birthday I got to choose where we went.

We had a very lovely meal followed by my favourite cheesecake. I was lost in my cheesecake when the lights went off and the music went down. Puzzled, I looked up to find my delightful waitress heading for my table with a bowl of ice cream bearing a candle. The birthday song was played over the loudspeaker followed by Cliff singing Congratulations; I was so embarrassed but thought it very funny and such a thoughtful gesture on the part of the waitress. I would have no hesitation in recommending this lovely restaurant to any of my friends or colleagues. I hope to see you soon.
