Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Leicester Description
Frankie and Benny's combine 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 wonderful 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 starters, main courses and delicious desserts, and favourites include char-grilled burgers, pizzas, pastas, steaks and house specialities such as chicken parmigiana, BBQ ribs, lamb shank and much more. The bar serves a wide range of beers, wines, spirits, cocktails and soft drinks.
Start with sticky wings, crispy coated chicken strips, tiger prawn skewer or Frankie's fried calamari and if you are dining in a group choose the giant sampler platter. The pastas, calzone and pizzas are all made freshly on order. An interesting dish on the menu is a the Boston 7 speciality pizza fully loaded with slices of pork meatballs, spicy pepperoni, ham, crispy bacon, chicken, peppers and red onion, served on a BBQ sauce base. They also serve a variety of sandwiches and burgers throughout the day.
A good value lunch menu is available on weekdays from 11am until 5pm offering a range of popular dishes from the main carte with one course at £5.95, two courses at £7.25 and three courses at £8.45.
For children up to the age of eleven, an all-inclusive menu features a selection of main courses, desserts and drinks starting at £3.95. As an added treat, they'll also receive an activity pack to entertain them whilst you eat.

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.
