Lil' Frankie's Grocery offers a charming atmosphere with spectacular sandwiches and attentive service. The sandwiches are well-priced and well-portioned, with standout options like the chicken parm and the Ricky. The Fran is an Italian spin on the classic bacon, egg, and cheese. The quality of ingredients is notable, and the front of house staff and chef are both hospitable and friendly, often going the extra mile. The deli space upfront is where the sandwiches are made, and there's a large communal table for seating. In the evening, the menu shifts to focus on pizzas, and the narrow space also offers Italian groceries. With quick and friendly service, Lil' Frankie's Grocery is a delightful spot for both a daytime sandwich and a late-night pizza slice. The sandwiches are truly outstanding, made with freshly shaved tender meat on crisp, just baked bread. The manager was very attentive and welcoming, making a whole new sandwich when a husband arrived later. The sandwich menu itself is a comprehensive set of finely tuned sandwiches, each unique and delicious. Favorites include The Employee of the Month, Brown Butter Steak, Hot Thanksgiving Sandwich, and The Fran.
