REVIEWS OF Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Tunbridge Wells
F and B Barr (11 December 2008)
I think the members of staff were rude and unacceptable, the food lacks great inspiration and the only good thing about this place were the two old bar men, and they have now left. Do not eat there.
Dr B (30 July 2008)
On weekends Frankie and Benny's is lively with a vibrant atmosphere, the bar is also stocked with a good selection of cocktails and beers. The food on the menu is fairly classic - meatballs, mixed platters, burgers etc. Service can be a little slow on weekends when busy but not unduly so. I think the food itself is greasy and uninspired. Of particular mention is the Italian tomato soup, which is strangely sweet.
