Frankie's Pizza & Pasta

MY WIFE & I HAVE BEEN DINING AT FRANKIES SINCE IT OPENED, THE RESTAURANT,STAFF & PIZZA HAVE NEVER FAILED US. WE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED IT TO ALL OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY. I GREW UP IN SAN FRANCISCO EATING GREAT PIZZA AND FRANKIES IS THE MOST SIMILAR TO MY CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES DINING OUT WITH MY FAMILY. THIS PLACE IS GREAT, THE OWNER FRANK IS INCREDIBLE AND THOUGHTFUL, HE ALWAYS REMEMBERS US AND THAT MAKES YOU FEEL EVEN MORE WELCOME. more

The pizza at Frankie's was awful! The pizza was bland and the crust was so mushy. I have to say I thought it was akin to frozen pizza. With such a high rating, I was hoping for so much more - but I was undoubtedly disappointed by how inaccurate the rating was. Cons: Sub-par pizza, Over-rated more

My wife and I have been coming to Frankie's and bringing friends for 7 years and we pretty much have seen the same staff working here the entire time. My wife works at MSFT and always brings in Frankie's Pizza for lunch meetings. Everyone we have exposed to Frankie's agrees it is the best pizza in Seattle, even our 3 year old son. Our new baby son can't wait to try the ""classic combo."" Pros: Kid Friendly, Great Staff more

When we finally got our pizza, it had a pool of grease in the center of it, and was as floppy as a piece of bread left well, sitting in a pool of grease. This place is NOT kid friendly...inattentive staff, slow service, and grease pizza. We may have come on a bad night, but I havent worked up the nerve to try the place again. Pros: friendly staff Cons: , NOT child friendly, GREASEY pizza more

My friends and family and I have always chosen Frankies for our best dining in Redmond. Family-owned, Frankie is often found walking around the dining room asking diners about their experience and soliciting suggestions. Atmosphere is excellent for couples, families, anyone looking for good salads, pizzas, and calzones! Very fresh ingredients and good seasonal menu options. I wholeheartedly recommend the breadsticks, caesar salad, and calzone Veneto. Pizza Margherita is excellent as well! Wine list is top-notch with many local Washington wines. Pros: Great Wine List, Excellent Calzones, Family-Owned more

I have been to every top rated pizza place in the Seattle area including Paggliaci's, Northlake Tavern, Atlantic Street, Piecora's, Bigtime and many many more. Frankie's is the best! They hand toss their dough in full view. Their igredients are always fresh and they use the best cheese. I recommend the Frankie's Special Pizza and the Greek Salad. The wine list is a great value. The people are very friendly, but not anoying like many chain restaurants. They are always busy, so be ready to wait. Pros: The Best Pizza, Friendly Service, Good Value Cons: , No Reservations more

There is nothing special about this place at all. The pasta is fair to bad. The meatball sandwhich is okay. The pizza is just north of acceptable. The wine list is not worth speaking of. I have eaten here twice--once on a date, once with a group of friends--and have been severely unimpressed. If you want something quick and cheap eat here. If you want something exquisite (which Italian food should be) do not. Pros: cheap, fast, parking more

This a great place to get some of the best pizza on the Eastside. The variety is great, the ambience is pleasant and inviting and once seated you are treated better then the owner. I have and several occasions even had Frankie himself stop at the table ask what he can do to make the evening more pleasant. Pros: Food, Ambience, Service Cons: , Getting In more

This is a nice unpretentious spot where you'll see the owner working more often than not. You get a friendly staff, simple but well prepared pizzas and pastas and a nice cozy atmosphere somewhere between Pizza Hut and find dining. Busy at times (weekend nights, lunch) but service is usually quick. Pros: Value, Good food, Nice folks Cons: Can be crowded more

It's our typical friday date night place. The servers are sooo great, the food is amazing... real comfort food!!! The calzone's are wonderful! and the bread sticks and ""special sauce"" to die for. Pros: wonderful food, wonderful people, great location!~ Cons: gets really packed, not many parking spot more

This is one of the true great restaurants in Redmond. Prepare for a wait even if there are few people in the place because the staff is mostly young folks learning the trade. Their hearts are in the right place but are on the learning curve practicing on you the diner. But, the food is wonderful. Pastas are cooked according to taste and sauce, the pizza's come with a chewy/crisp crust and wonderful fresth toppings and the salads are fresh with plentiful ingrediants. For a real treat, try the hot garlic bread - to die for. Prices are reasonable and no one is rushing you out the door which is nice. We love coming here especially for Saturday lunch. Pros: Great Food, Reasonable Prices, Nice spot Cons: Staff in Training, Cramped Parking, Can be quite Crowded more
