Frankie's Italian Bar and Grill Review

Portions were small food was tasteless...butternut squash soup was just cream....was not worth the price..

Place is clean and staff we're friendly and happy to serve us. And I had the best person in the world with me so it was great :) The food wasn't too shabby either lol

There have been times where I haven t been the greatest fan of Frankie s but today changed my mind! We went for lunch and the food: mussels, shrimp pasta (the baked tomatoes add a delicious amount of flavour) and the tiramisu and cheesecake were all fantastic! Service was prompt & professional. More willing to go back now than ever before. A bit on the expensive side for the portions but if you get an appetizer you won t leave hungry.

Amazing food amazing environment. Little noisy on a busy night but not unbearable. Food was presented flawlessly and servers were professional.

Going to be a bit of a stickler here. The food was on point. Everything edible was incredible and presented well in that 'casual fine dining' style. The service was great in terms of speed and attention but they missed a few little touches that I like to see. Our server may not have been aware of or perhaps forgot that it's fairly common to have oil and vinegar on the table with bread during an Italian meal. We eventually got some but I had to ask and I wish it was just delivered with the bread. A little clumsy while pouring beverages which is not uncommon but still takes away from the experience a bit imo.
Beyond that the meal was excellent and as we left we discovered they have a very reasonable corkage fee for those who cellar their favorite wines like we do.
Will definitely be coming back.

It was really good food, good prices and excellent servers.

Great environment, great food and consistently good service. Their patio is one of the best in chilliwack in the summer as well! Had the beef carpaccio and it was some of the best I've had. Great experience! Family owned and operated I'm told!

We ordered a lasagna and a gluten free pasta for pick up. We usually order from a different Italian place across town, but they're closed on Sunday's. The prices were very similar, but the portions are not! The lasagna was $17 plus tax, and we only got 1 little square. At the other Italian place you get your own lasagna for that price (6 squares worth)!!! And the bolognese sauce for the gluten free pasta ($17 plus tax) was kinda ok. When I order from the other place, a pasta portion will give me 2 full dinners and a snack! And it tastes WAY better! This was a large lunch portion at best. They can't say your paying for freshness, because the other place makes it fresh too! We will never be eating here ever again. Keep googling

Excellent appys and drink specials. Nice place get drinks with friends after work. Nice ambiance.

I had the beef carpaccio and it was loaded in salt my friends and I couldn't finish a whole bite. I also had the seafood linguini that tasted like it had gone bad. Food was overpriced for the quality and service was meh. Super disappointed we decided to have dinner there and will definitely never come back.

The pasta was good but I found the ceasar salad pretty lack luster for the price of $12. You get like 8 leafs of lettuce and for cruttons....

Love the atmosphere and the food is outstanding. Love their wine list too!

Best Italian food in Chilliwack, and it's nice to have something a bit more upscale in town, as well. It's also open later than most restaurants in town. Check it out!

could not eat my meal noodles not cooked, disappointed, expensive

Great food, lovely modern decor, I recommend the lasagna.

Service was good. Very considerate/accommodating about food allergies. Food was excellent.

Always a good meal. The service and ambience are perfect.

Never had bad service or food; staff always great and food is fantastic. Highly recommend Frankie's!!

Celebrated a milestone 70th birthday for our brother in law . Big mistake worst meal in a long time . Food was very low quality 2nd rate , portions were small price was way over the top. Charged nickle and dimes for everything. Wife had a chicken breast that looked like it had been boiled not broiled. My steak 8ounce sirloin was not even nice to look at . For the two of us the bill came to 93 dollars with a nice surprise of a gratuity added in the bill because there was over 8 people. For 93 dollars we could have went to dennys or rickeys and brought food home with us. Lots of young people working in the kitchen with one adult supervising. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone . Disgusting!

Very nice food you have try the dessert...which I have attached.

Great food, friendly environment. Knowledgable staff and a great happy hour menu.

Had the bruschetta, chicken pasta and lemon tart. Everything was delicious ! Will recommend

Super impressed with everything! Great atmosphere but casual, kids menu and food service was prompt! Even our server, Josh, split our orders as we shared a salad and lasagna. And yes, the food was awesome! Would highly recommend this place, especially those who have young kids in tow ;)

Such great food at happy hour. I'll be coming back to try dinner.

Excellent service and food. Had a peach bellini and the avocado focaccia. Fabulous!!! Our server was the best!!!

Food was fabulous and service was prompt. Caught the tail end of happy hour and the appies were tasty.

Service was great, as was the atmosphere in the nicely decorated dining room.
I have enjoyed the food here a few times but the meal this time did not meet my previous experience.
The noodles in my lasagna were too el dente. Made for a very chewy experience.
The portions are good. I will try them again as they are generally really good.

Best meal in some time. Great service and the staff worked hard to get a large group in with no notice. My new favorite restaurant... sad I don't live in Chilliwack.

Top quality food in a clean, inviting surrounding with helpful staff. Had lunch here with a group of 4 and a baby. Were accommodating of the baby and all 4 of us had excellent dishes, presented beautifully. They definitely know what they re doing. Highly recommend.

Amazing food,amazing service,and the setup in there is beautiful!!! I definitely recommend it!! Five stars doesnt do it justice

Went out to Frankies for date night. Everything was awesome. The servers were attentive, professional and friendly. The food was phenomenal. The decor and ambiance was perfect for a romantic date.

Great service great food, had a table of 20 and they brought everything out really quickly once we place the order and the top sirloin excellent and is probably one of the best places in this city

The bar side at Frankie s is probably one of the nicest places to have a drink in Chilliwack. Ambience and interior design are fantastic and the menu is even better.

The restaurant side could be improved with some more privacy. It feels a little bit like a fancy community hall.

Good service. Good food. Caring staff. Nice decor and atmosphere.
Competitive prices. Had a great time.

Great food, and a nice clean and modern restaurant.

Every time I go, there is quality service and amazing food. Never disappoints. Would recommend to anyone looking for fresh, delicious Italian food. Love Frankie's!

it's just delicious and it's the best food in town ..

Overrated. I've been here four times hoping it would get better but each time was a disappointment.

Great service and delicious Italian cooking. Very nice interior.

Chicken linguini with cherry tomatoes and antipasto platter are very tasty.

Service was bad and food was cappy for what you pay for.

Weren't to Frankie's with some out of town guests. We all impressed with the food. Ingredients were fresh and tasty. Service was very good as well.

Great food pmus good music. Eorodance .Good stuff. :)

Overall it was a good experience. The steel & oak dark lager is a really good beer. I went then for lunch and was craving the beef dip, it was not as good as I expected. The beef dip itself lacked flavour or maybe they just didn't put enough dressing on the bun. The service was really good and attentive without being overbearing. Would definitely try again, but most likely won't end up getting the beef dip again.

Ordered through skip the dishes but called prior to request a dish which isn t on the menu. I was dealt promtly by host, haley? on the phone and amazingly as always by Luke whom i was passed on to and takes my orders when dining in.
The chef cooked my spaghetti aglio e olio to perfection with that kick of spice! Reminds me of the days when I lived in Europe.
Skip the dishes was promt and delivered the food warm and well presented.
Also, the cheesecake is heavy, as it should be! But is delicious and fresh. Thanks!!

Food was kind of bland, shrimp whatever it was called, lacked good flavour, and the Italian chicken thing could've been better too. Atmosphere is pretty good, and the drinks too. Had three waitresses today, which was interesting and fun.

Great food and affordable. Good date night restaurant.

This restaurant was awosome, great dishes with reasonable price. Clerks were all kind. We definitely come here again and again. Very family friendly place!

Small portions, and tasted bland! Couldn't believe it for the price they charge.

Good Italian food with reasonable size portions not Anton's size but tasty. I had the seafood fettuccini and it has crab, prawns, and mussels in it that were reasonable size not small. Nicely decorated restaurant and catering for the more upscale from Earls or Cactus club scene.

This place is a real treat in Chilliwack. The interior is well decorated with professional staff. The food is excellent - beef carpaccio and filet mignon are well made. Halibut is awesome. Lemon tart and creme brule are delicious. Good wines in large stemware; linen napkins; fresh-baked focaccia bread; all accompany your meal. I highly recommend this restaurant if you enjoy decadent Italian cuisine.

Unreasonably overpriced for quality of food. I wouldn't mind paying more as long as the taste, quality and service justifies the price. Service was not bad but after paying $26 (including tax & tip) for an average quinoa salad, I am definitely not coming back

My prawn and salmon salad was delicious! The daily specials are wonderful.

My husband and I finally went here after its opening, never got around to checking it out but we were missing out! Ambiance is very nice, our server Josh was very knowledgeable and made for a great experience. Our food was delicious and we left full and satisfied, we will be going back.

Been here a few times for dinner. Clean and spacious inside, the servers are always very nice and so far the food has been nice. Here is my "keto" option, had to say no to the delicious bread that came with it but my friend had no problem devouring it.

Great atmosphere, service was excellent and food was delicious.

It was phenomenal . Really romantic going there with my husband and great service
We will be returning for date nights!

As a well travelled Canadian that can recall the amazing quality and magnificent pasta from Italy especially, Roma. I am here to inform you that Frankie's has done it, they are making high quality authentic Italian dishes using high quality ingredients sourced from Italy ( San Marzano tomatos, cured meats, durum ) all makes for an incredible Italian gastronomy experience. The bruschetta was truly amazing drizzled with there unlimited supply of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. As well their antipasto and Cesar salad were the best I had in Canada. Their pizza was truly an amazing recreation like the ones I had in Naples, Italy. Pasta was the same truly authentic Italian. I spent 4 hours sampling the menu for holes and none were found. If you like traditional Italian food this is the place.

Unimpressive service, menu kept changing, food was meh.

Excellent authentic Italian foods. Great menu and superb service. The terimasu is very very good.

Server was good, service was so so. Food was pretty good, but not great. Appy ordered came mid through our entree, oops, but at least they apologized. Offered a free dessert since it was our anniversary which was a nice touch, then charged us for it. Can't see us going back again.

Main dishes are delectable! Appys are okay. Service is typical. Ambiance is perfect!

Food is soo good,wine is excellent,and a dessert is fantastic.Five plus stars

The old location, though in an undesirable area, was a much nicer ambience. The new restaurant resembles a White Spot. The lounge looks nicer, but is ridiculously loud. The staff has gotten younger, ruder, and no one seems to know how to operate a Pos system. Yesterday was my second time dealing with rude employees, who's attitude would not fly at Mcdonalds.
The only thing that hasn't changed is the food, which was never their strong point. I'm curious to know if management has changed since moving to Sardis. I'm so disappointed with the new Frankies.

It was my birthday dinner and I decided to come here because my mom had been to the one in Vancouver and thoroughly enjoyed it. The food was tasty, but the portions were ridiculously small. You paid $16-$20 for an appetizer sized meal and we all left hungry. I don't think we'll be coming back again.

Excellent pasta. Went during happy hour and was excited to find beers for only $3.
