When I am down in Boca I make it a point to eat at Frank and Dino's. The food and the atmosphere is so tasteful for date night with my wife.

Who is the older bartender who dresses so inappropriately? I was embarrassed for her.

Best Italian restaurant in Lexington! Soft opening currently. Food is superb. Service is attentive. Valet parking for $10 and offers an efficient text service to call for the car when ready to leave. Music volume is perfect for conversation. What a gem!
We went there on a recommendation from our friend Tim Bluntson who was singing. The food was great I had the pear pasta and my husband had the salmon and we had the banana cream pie which was incredible. The waiter was very attentive and music was great. The only feedback that I have was that there didn't seem to be much room in between tables so people kept bumping into our table and at some point the corner we were sitting in became uncomfortably warm.

The bartenders were very attentive the atmosphere was festive I really enjoyed my experience here my first time here and I loved it can't wait to come back a DJ that's was spinning what seem to be 80s and 90s and a little bit of 70s

As a full-time Boca resident, I've been to many restaurants and we go out every weekend. We have not been here in six months and gave it a try. The prices went up and is much higher than other high-end Italian restaurants in Boca. The portions Or OK not large. The Caesar salad for $14 was very small compared to others. However all that is OK and can be dealt with. The service was very slow (not good). We had to keep asking our waiter to come back. First to take a drink order, second to place an appetizer and finally for everything else. Not once did he come over without us calling him. We were in no rush, we were there 1.5 hours. Never once did he come ask how things were. We got up to get our own balsamic dressing. Just overall not a good experience for $250! For 3 people and no entrees.

The food came to us 90 minutes after we sat down We invited 4 other people and were embarrassed it took so long The managers came over and spoke with us several times and said the kitchen is very backed up Food was great, service below their typical excellent Hope to hear from you soon because we would like to return soon Thank you.

Went to dinner with another couple who goes here regularly. Started with appetizers of zuppa de cozze, mediterrean mussels in fresh herb sauce with a touch of garlic, cannellini beans and white wine as well as gnocchi with pesto sauce. I had the linguini con vongole (linguine with fresh baby clams in white clam sauce). It was excellent, particularly the tender linguini and fresh clams. We also had the salmon with mustard white lemon and arrugula and the pollo parmigiana (chicken breast breaded lightly fried topped with pomdoro sauce and mozzerella cheese. All were excellent! Very good italian restaurant, wonderful pasta. A must visit!

Great ambiance. Very pricey for the quality of food
I would describe the atmosphere as "any Italian movie ever". You know that feeling in any Italian mob movie, where you can only turn to the neighborhood Italian restaurant and ask them for a favor on the day of their daughters wedding? It immediately felt like that. I mean this in a good way, not a, "they'll wack you" if you say something wrong way. Although, they did have a slice of NY Cheesecake that you could kill over. Great service, amazingly cliche atmosphere and even better desserts.By the way, do yourself a favor and get the lobster ravioli. You'll thank me later.

Poor service....server did not know menu. Werent greeted for 15 minutes. Had to get ou r.c ok wn salt.pepper and grated cheese. Never checked back after food delivery. Calimari was extremely rubbery. Red sauce had metallic taste and was exremely unseasoned and bland. Mistakes expected at Olive Garden....not a premium pricepoint restaurant. Overpriced andcpoorly managed..front and back of tbe house.

We were a party of 3. First time eating at Frank and Dino's. We liked the ambiance. Wait staff was friendly. We didn't have to wait long for the food after ordering, but our reservation was at 6:00pm which was probably the first seating. Our waiter wasn't very attentive. He didn't deliver the food, he came by and asked how everything was after we had eaten about half the meal. We ordered a bottle of wine which the waiter delivered to the table and opened it to let it breathe. The waiter never came back to serve the wine, we had to do it ourselves. We got the distinct impression that a lot of the patrons eat there often and the wait staff pampered them at the expense of other diners. I really like having a good salad with pasta. Unfortunately, the Caesar salad was nothing to write home about. Small portion, no anchovies, and the waiter did not offer to grind pepper or add more parmesan cheese. There are a lot of high end Italian restaurants in Boca. We have eaten at a three so far. I'd rate Frank and Dino's at the bottom. The food for the most part was good, not great.
