We went to Frankies last night to watch the US v Netherlands World Cup game. The food and the service were outstanding but we had to leave at half-time because it was so hot in the bar. It was 83 degrees (per the thermostat in front of us) and no AC or fans. Definitely not worth going to the bar just due to the heat. Will be ordering the food to go because it was so amazing! Will try the bar again in the winter.

Coke boiled chicken in my burrito! Rude cashier/server Marlene was abusive and didn’t offer to make it right for us just told me you ordered we served you.. I guess their customer service stops there? I asked can we have a refund then since u just took the tray of food away? We left after shouted at us “No Refunds!” ? Disaster

This wonderful little hole in the wall watering hole is just the kind of place every neighborhood needs. The demographic is vast, with younger folks, mixed with old timers, locals and everyone in between.Beer selection is just fine, with several IPAs on tap. Bar service comes from a couple of great young fellows and an occasional part time gal. All are super friendly and do a fantastic job. They represent the owners passion for good times and great customer service. Thank you Frank and Lisa, or should I say Lisa and Frank? Beauty first I suppose...You will find me there a few times a month taking it easy after work. Great little place.

I lived in Escondido since 2004. Not sure when this place opened, but super delicious. I ate chicken street tacos, my wife's friend shared some chicken flaunts. Both sure awesome. The staff was really attentive and on it. Great place lucky I live close. Close to the 15 for anyone driving bye. It is Connect to a wine beer bar, so sit in there and order if you want a drink.

Very nice restaurant. Showed the UFC without a cover charge

Relaxed place to just have a couple drinks and then go home after a long day at work.
AH-MAZING service and staff. Great prices on everything from food to bar. You will fall in love on your first visit. The bar side isn't too large so it can fill up quickly but they have a great patio with two fire pits. If you're local, it's a must visit!

Never will I go to this place again. Bought two dinners they hand you four small plastic containers of salsa, which in my eating Mexican experience in the past isn’t very much to add the a dinner or just for chips. How about you? So at the open salsa bar I added four more of there scoops which one will fill that small plastic container to my dinner! Then I was told that was to much salsa taken from the open salsa bar and they needed $5 more dollars! What an open salsa bar NO sign and they needed $5 more dollars. No other open salsa bar in town has ever regulated its use! Never again Chicken Lisa buyer beware.

Easy little local spot. Beer n wine joint connected to a Mexican food spot. Friendly service with locals talking loud and gossiping others business. Regular clientele who knew each other's names. Easy prices and clean to the eye. Since I'm from out of town and wanted to try something different. I'm cool with no need to find it again from the golf resort up the street.

Frankies Bar is fine with much to drink at average prices and somewhere to take your mom for a quite drink of wine. Chicken Lisa's attached is no good. City of Escondido mandates in Escondido Hills that at least half of 555 West Country Club Lane to be low income housing in our private neighborhood. Two story studio apartments 491 sq. feet each and 12 units total above with stores and restaurants below are mandatory to be constructed at this location or else be city confiscated for such.
Where in the hell is this place? No name
