Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Leicester Description

Frankie and Benny's combine the best of classic American and Italian in both style and cuisine. They specialise in home style cooking 'just like Mamma used to make it'. This is a great place to take the entire family and represents excellent value for money. The restaurant and bar is suitable for any occasion, whether it's a leisurely lunch, a family meal or a fantastic evening with friends - they make sure you have a great time.

Walking into the restaurant is like stepping back into 1950s New York, from the clatter and chatter of the open kitchen to the bottle lined bar. 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.

Frankie and Benny's offers a range of succulent starters, mouth watering meals and delicious desserts. Favourites include chargrilled burgers, pizzas, pastas and house specialities such as chicken parmigiana, risotto and T-bone steak. The bar serves a wide range of beers, wines, spirits, cocktails and soft drinks.

Their sharing platters with options of chicken, skins, ribs and wings and a combination are a great way to start your meal if you are dining in a group. The pastas, calzone and pizzas are attractive and all made freshly on order. An interesting dish on the menu is a breakfast pizza with generous amounts of pork and herb sausage, ham, sautéed mushrooms and a whole egg cracked into the centre before baking. They also serve a variety of sandwiches and burgers throughout the day.

For children up to the age of ten, an all-inclusive menu featuring Frankie and Benny's very own Gangster Mice is available! For just £3.95, your child can choose from a great selection of main courses, desserts and soft drinks. As an added treat, they'll also receive a kid's pack full of activities and stackable crayons to entertain them whilst you eat.

Enjoy an American Italian meal at Frankie and Benny's with freshly prepared food and warm hospitality that makes you feel right at home.

Your Reviews of Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Leicester

Yates (6 February 2007)

The food here is simple fare that is produced in an open kitchen area. Taste = fine for an American diner. Though I do not see American food as being the best for taste, quality and grabbing the taste buds!

Overall a reasonable family restaurant that the kids will enjoy, (the kids’ menus offers handmade pizzas and meatballs with spaghetti, as an alternative to chicken nuggets), but the service is haphazard and not always friendly.

Dawn Kyle (5 February 2007)

This is my favourite place to eat in Leicester. Fantastic food, fantastic service and fantastic music. There is always a great atmosphere and I look forward to trying out different cocktails at the bar area. I have been coming to Frankie & Benny’s at the Meridian for about 10 years and I have never, ever had a bad experience. If you have never been - try it, you'll be going back for more.

When one of the country's most respected and leading critics says that a restaurant in this group is 'the best Italian Restaurant outside London' it is time to take them seriously. Britain's love ...
