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

Graham (11 November 2007)

After four attempts at allowing F and B's to get it right, I am now firmly of the belief that the restaurant is perhaps beyond improving. I visited there on the request of my ten year old son. Despite the restaurant being one third full, it took seven minutes for someone to come and seat myself and my son. I decided on a main course, tuna Niçoise salad and my son on a chicken free Cesar salad off the juniors menu. As my son has a couple of allergies, mainly due to some of the ingredients contained in sugary soft drinks he asked for water, which he should have got fee as part of his meal.

The juniors menu offers unlimited soft drinks free of charge yet despite that we were charged for the still water that my son asked for with the waitress saying that water is not classed as one of the soft drinks available on the children’s menu; it’s amazing considering water is cheaper than soft drinks. Our meals arrived and my son’s junior Cesar salad was larger than the main course tuna, Niçoise salad that I had ordered, which at £8.45 should have been a little more substantial for a main course. Incidentally, the tuna was still red in the middle of the steak. From ordering our meals, it took nearly thirty minutes to arrive. My son’s activity pack arrived at the end of the meal. Overall another poor experience at F and B's. The two salads, the fully loaded jacket and one drink each came to £23.50. It’s a rip off, considering the service and quality of food.
