Walls with black and white family photographs showing life in Brooklyn's 'Little Italy' surround cosy booth seating and tables. Combined with the classic music of the fifties, a mix of American swing and beat, they definitely provide a fun and friendly atmosphere for all to enjoy.

REVIEWS OF Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Edinburgh Omni Centre
Dejan, Macedonia (19 March 2009)
I have had several dinners in this restaurant, in Edinburgh, and this is one of the best restaurants in Europe. It's completely a great feeling and the dishes are amazing, especially the steaks. The music and the polite and friendly waitress complete the whole experience.
Frankie and Benny's (2 June 2008)
We went to Frankie and Benny's in Edinburgh for lunch yesterday and found our waiter extremely rude so ended up walking out. Once seated, we had ordered drinks and when the waiter returned with them I asked him if they no longer served a meal that I had ordered in the past, admittedly some time ago. He informed me that he had worked there for eleven years and that item had never been on the menu. Just by way of chat, and in no way complaining, I went on to tell him what the dish was served with in the hope he would come back with a polite reply. He replied in a rude manner and walked away leaving my husband and I shocked and embarrassed. We decided just to leave our drinks, unpaid for, and on our way out asked to speak to the manager. He just apologised and did not ask any questions. I was disappointed with the service, so much so I felt the need to write this review.

There's one thing about Maison Bleue, absolutely no chance of missing it. Quite how they managed it I know not, but blue it is, very prettily done up with plenty of flowers on the outside in season, ...
