Such a wonderful and special restaurant. Returned for the first time in a long time, and the meal and experience never disappoints!

Frankie's 457 Sputino was exceptional and absolutely delivered. The whole vibe was laid-back but thoughtful, and the service was incredibly friendly and attentive, just the right amount of check-ins without hovering. We started with the mozzarella plate, which came with three different kinds—all super fresh and each with their own flavor. The sweet potato ravioli in a parmesan broth was unique and comforting, and I can't stop thinking about the meatballs with raisins and pine nuts—seriously, that sauce was something special. My girlfriend had the eggplant Parmesan and loved it, tender, thinly sliced, light cheese,not greasy, in a sweet sauce and really well done. I also had the lentils, served more like a soup, and it was simple, hearty, and just right. The Frankie's Iced Tea (their twist on a Long Island) was smooth and sneakily strong, one of the best cocktails I've had in a while. And even the bread stood out, fresh, crusty, and worth mentioning on its own. For dessert, the tiramisu was light and just sweet enough—not overdone. We also had these marinated dates with mascarpone that were rich and unexpected in the best way. Honestly, everything we tried hit the mark. The food, the atmosphere, the service—it all just worked. We'll definitely be back.

We have been coming to Frankie's for years. Nothing has changed, thank God. Everything is very good, very welcoming, very satisfying.

Frankies Spuntinos never fails to impress with their food and service. The Eggplant Parm we had for dinner was unforgettable. Their sauce is so delicious! I said to my husband during the meal I felt like it was a meal straight from Italy. We love going there and highly recommend. Our waiter was friendly & attentive and we hope we get him again soon!

The food is great, the noise level is high, but that is also dependent on the volume level of the clients.

Maybe I caught them on a bad night. First time eating here, and unfortunately, it was underwhelming. I was with a party of 6, and the food took a long time to come out. They were hosting a private party in their catering area. They probably should have taken fewer table reservations, as the kitchen could not keep up. As a result, many of the pasta dishes we ordered were just meh. Patio was nicely decorated.

Our server was excellent. Food was good but I wouldn't rave about it. I thought the portions were a bit small and the presentation poor. The dessert made up for it though. Prunes in wine and mascarpone. Absolutely delicious

Frankies Spuntino is my favorite Italian restaurant in Brooklyn—consistently outstanding, authentic food; attentive, knowledgeable service; a convivial, warm-hearted ambiance. Frankies has it all!

I know this has been around for a long time, but this is my new favorite spot! The food is incredible and the staff is so kind. Ambience is a 10 -- can't wait to come back.
Great food !! Best burrata ever . Highlight of nite was meeting Howard Schultz CEO of Starbucks . A trust genius

Chef Chasteen does an amazing job. This is one of the best Italian restaurants in all of NYC. The appetizers were fresh and light for the summer; the pastas delicious without being overbearingly heavy. The desserts were some of the best I've ever had. Absolutely fantastic!

We love Frankie's. We were married here 2 years ago and we come back every year on our anniversary. The service, food and wine are top notch. It has a neighbourhood feel - warm and welcoming like you are dining with old friends. As someone who has been in the hospitality industry from a very young age, I can say that Frankie's has figured it out and excels in hospitality.

It's hard to find the words. Frankie's never disappoints! The food is outstanding. Simple. Just majestic. Already dreaming about our next visit.
