REVIEWS OF Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Bournemouth
Player (8 January 2012)
Called in afternoon of Sat 7th Jan 2011 for a 15" America Hot pizza and two small (330ml)bottles of still water to take away. The thin crust pizza was tasty with fresh cheese and plenty of topping. At £12.95, not bad value for a restaurant take-away. The eye-watering price was £4.50 for the two tiny still water bottles. Why spoil good value with this? A couple of larger ones are close to an 11" pizza itself. £18.45 for a single pizza and two small waters is not attractive, so, as they say...I'm Out.
Kerry (27 August 2011)
Service was helpful and friendly but slow.
Food was good except for the meatballs which were not fresh at least a day old.
