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 - Rochester
Dean Winchester (3 July 2011)
I have eaten here many times and have always had excellent food and service. The staff are very attentive and the manager, Sean is and has always been keen to make sure my dining experience is a pleasant one. The food has always been well cooked and delivered in good time. If there is ever a delay in service, it is because the place is so busy and that is just a testament to the popularity of the place.
Alison (2 October 2008)
I found the food to be good but unfortunately the service did not always match. On two separate occasions recently, once the restaurant quietened down at approximately 10pm, the staff began to make it clear they would like us to move on by banging trays, and generally larking about, which made my colleague and myself very uncomfortable. As the restaurant is advertised as being open until 11pm weeknights, I feel the staff should remain courteous at least until that time. It has unfortunately spoiled my enjoyment of what would have otherwise been pleasant evenings.
