REVIEWS OF Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Nottingham City Centre

Sue (23 March 2008)

Slow service, small portions and cold food made the whole experience at Frankie and Benny's very disappointing. I also found it pricey.

Michael Burden (5 May 2005)

We made our first ever visit to any Frankie and Benny on 1 May 2005, but it will be our last, because this was the most disappointing restaurant we have visited in a long time. The spaghetti bolognaise was only a tiny portion of rather plain and insipid spaghetti in a watery reddish liquid - certainly not heaped with beef or ragu sauce as claimed by the menu. We asked for that essential accompaniment - parmesan cheese - but were told that they had run out. Their steak ciabatta sandwich, accompanied by a portion of undercooked anaemic chips and two slices of tomato, was just two pieces of dry bread containing a small piece of tough and gristly steak, a tiny piece of dead lettuce and a slice of red onion with no sign of the mozzarella cheese, pesto mayo, etc listed on the menu. (The onion was fine). F&B's ambience and menu indicates a much more stylish version of the roadside chain OK Diner, which we often visit and rate highly. However on this evidence their meals are certainly vastly inferior to what is available at the OK Diner. PS - One redeeming note at least for F&B! Our four year old son enjoyed his pizza and was very amused by the colouring book and crayons the waitress gave him.
