These days singular, yet dependable dining experiences seem a thing of the past. However I keep returning, for the very reason that Frankie Bones have successfully bucked that trend. The ambiance, and food-both in quality and preparation-when coupled with dependably attentive and the personable serving team DO make dining here delectable and a desired place to celebrate those special occasions as well as those 'just me' times. The menu it wide enough to please meandering taste buds (Schinitzel) Italian Saltimbocca, Liver & onion) or their superb prime rib! We have never seen an unhappy diner during our many meals here! Want your dining 'Cake' and save dollars to?? Check out their Early Dining menu. Full size portions, pint sized prices. Even the wine has reduced prices. Daily 3:30-5:30 pm. You'll thank me! read more

We made reservations on a Saturday night and we sat a few minutes early. The outside dining area was perfect (and they allow dogs) . Our waitress was amazing! My husband ordered the special drink called Elijah Craig Mulligan and LOVED it. We shared the calamari as our appetizer and it's good. Heavily breaded and came with a small sauce. We could have used a second sauce. My hubby loved his crab cakes and I had the gf pizza margarita. The basil looked like micro greens and were odd. It needed more sauce but overall the crust was fine for gluten free. Overall, 6.5/10 and I'll be back. read more

This is the first time I visited for lunch. They have quite an extensive menu which include weekly specials and daily specials. I ordered the dough pizzette Primavera which was a personal pizza covered with asparagus, peppers, onions and mushrooms. It was very good. For an extra $5.00, I added the caesar salad as well. At 11:30, the group of 6 of us had the place pretty much to ourselves. Our waitress was very attentive and easily provided separate checks. She takes your card and processes right at the table. With the Serg rewards card, I also was able to turn the 25% discount into a nice tip. read more

Well, decided to come here on Valentine's Day so I can't really say much for an atmosphere because it was packed so inside looks good but I did not dine inside. Dined outside which was adequate. The service was good, atmosphere outside was average.The food was pretty tasty and made to order. Overall really good. read more

We took some friends here for a nice dinner and were pleasantly surprised. Maria was an awesome server who didn't have any problem making some changes to our sides. The warm, delicious bread with herbed butter was a wonderful way to start our meal. The food was delicious and cooked to perfection. The Butterfinger Crunch cake that's made in-house was incredible!! Prices are reasonable We got there at 5:45 and by the time we left, the place was packed on a Tuesday night. Now we know why. read more

Great food! I had the portabella sandwich special which was great. The service was wonderful! Loved sitting on the patio for a nice lunch day. read more

Meh. Very average, at best. Fettuccine was a little undercooked. The side order of pasta, was smaller than a kids meal portion. Portion sizes have gotten smaller. This place definitely isn't what it used to be. read more

Pleasant surprise on our drive south to Florida. Looking for something local and not fast food. Kim had a great salmon dish and I had... wait for it... wiener schnitzel ! How often do you see that on a menu! Huge menu, lots of steaks and seafood, but I don't get wiener schnitzel too often! Nice place! read more

I had the Monday pot roast special. The meat was lukewarm to cool and nothing special flavor wise . The carrots were overcooked, overly sweet, but a bit warmer than the meat. The mashed potato's were average. My companions' chicken Parmesan and salmon salad were considerably better. Service was good . read more

We've been serg customers for many years, have bought the community card every year. Ordered a slab of ribs and they were literally unable to eat, hard and dry. What was more disturbing was the attitude of the manager on duty. I did not ask for him but he came over and acted like I was exaggerating. Asked if wanted anything else, I did not cause I was in the mood for ribs. I know there is a chance for a poor meal but at these prices the manager should be committed to a better customer experience. read more

The waitress was so tired and disinterested with her job. My drink order came out wrong! Our dinner came out in 5 minutes yet was still barely warm... My wife sent hers back and the nice man who brought it back apologized but gave a reason of the colder weather(It's in the low 50's)? We've been coming to visit Sun City since 2006 and now know why no one has ever recommended this place read more

Enjoyed the fish and chips, spinach dip, Caesar salad, and cheesecake. Our server was great, appetizer took a little while to come out but was a great portion size and very tasty! Can't wait to come back and try more items off the menu. Also seating on the patio was very nice especially with the fans on even on a warmer day in May. read more

WHATS THE RUSH... I have dined a Frankie Bones numerous times, but the same thing happens EVERYTIME! You sit down the server rattles off the specials and asks for drink orders before you have had time to review the drink list. Fast forward, we place the dinner order, 5 minutes later your appetizer is on the table. 10 minutes behind that out comes your dinner while you're still trying to enjoy your appetizer. So, you wolf down what's left of your starter to make room for your dinner plate. Then, once you finish your meal, stand back, as the server now wants to clear your plate while others are still eating. Proper etiquette is to wait until everyone is finished!!!! read more

We have been to Frankie Bones before on several occasions. However, our experience tonight has taken this place off of our list. When we arrived (without a reservation) at 17:05 and announced to the hostess that we were requesting a table for two, she asked us to stand a side. Then a party of three came in (also without a reservation) and they were seated before us! When we inquired as too our table for two we were told that they were waiting for a "two top" to be cleaned. Then we were seated at a both in the hall way behind the hostess stand at a table for four (as the hostess cleared away the other two service settings. Brittany our server started out strong. She was on top of her game, then unfortunately seemed to disappear. I guess this could have been because she had other tables that were out of our site? As we had to wait for our check for several minutes, etc. As we were seated in a booth in a hall way behind the Hostess stand the ambiance was nice and quiet. I grew up in a predominately Italian neighborhood in Queens in NYC I know good Italian food. I can honestly state: That the veal parmesan was the worst that I have ever had. Thankfully they served it with a steak knife, but even with that it was hard to cut. We will NOT be back! read more

Thank you so much for accommodating 30ppl. Service was magnificent, patient, polite, friendly and extremely professional. Everyone enjoyed themselves and the food was tasty. With the soft music playing and the sports on, we were all elated. Congratulations to Anya & Monte on their engagement. read more

Thought I'd try out Frankies in Bluffton. Nice looking place but not much more to be happy about. From the dispassionate hostess to the half heated Lasagna ( the special by the way) only the atmosphere was acceptable. Our waitress was friendly but slow she seemed to be on her own so maybe not her fault. Sadly, the food wasn't worth the price read more

We just went for 4:00 dinner (had reservations, since Valentine's Day) got seated immediately at Frankie Bones in Bluffton. Checked out the menus they gave us, ordered a drink; then when waiter came back asked if they had ''Early Bird Dinner Menu's and he said No, they thought they considered Valentines Day a holiday (which we didn't think was, but accepted what he said). Anyway, ordered from the regular menu, and had therefore had to pay $10 extra for salads, which are included in Early Bird Dinners. Couple came about 30 minutes later and sat at table next to us, and asked for Early Bird Menus; AND THEY GOT THEM, so tell me where the 'fairness' is. Seems to me staff ought to be trained to know when and if what Menus should be available. We probably paid $10-25 more for dinner . . . Not Happy Camper's. read more

Lunch was awesome. Cold brew boot love me, some Frankie bones and Bluffton. Bartender was great love all the local taps read more

The food was delicious I actually went with a large group of women for a birthday celebration. The service was exceptional. I had the rainbow trout with risotto and it was cooked perfectly. I was so impressed I took my husband back 4 days later and it was just as good. He had the schnitzel and the German noodles and red cabbage were outstanding. read more

We have been to Frankie bones twice now and had positive experiences both times. The parking lot is ample and there is indoor and outdoor seating but we have eaten inside both times. We did make reservations both times, but we probably could have walked in and been seated. I have tried the prosciutto pizza and loved it, along with a special that they had one evening, gnocchi, and pesto, shrimp. Look at my pic! It was to die for. The ambience of the restaurant was casual with softer lighting. I wouldn't call the restaurant intimate, but it definitely wasn't boisterous. It was the perfect vibe. The wait staff was attentive without being overwhelming. Definitely will return! read more

Our two couple visit occurred the evening of 10/17/25. The first issue was poor service. Even after a reminder, I never got an ordered tea and after reminding about the appetizer, it showed up after we were eating our entrees. Service was erratic from the time we ordered all the way through to waiting for the bill and payment processing. My wife and I found our food to have only a just okay Italian taste and my egg plant parmesan was barely warm. My friend's per the menu, "one ice cube" old fashioned came with many ice cubes. The outside sitting area was nice, but based on our experience, we do not recommend this restaurant. Side note: the other five different restaurants we visited that week were great. read more

This place is always a must stop at least once or twice when we are in town. The servers are friendly, drinks are cold and the food comes out quick. We ordered the potato spring rolls and bacon wrapped shrimp. Both were flavorful and hit the spot. I ordered the Trifecta pasta as I wanted some variety along with caesar salad. Wow what a meal! All the dishes were solid and very filling. Love this place keep up the good work!! read more

This restaurant was recommended to us and it didn't disappoint! My wife is Italian and she usually doesn't care for restaurant pasta sauce... so we asked for a small taste before we ordered. We were immediately brought two small ramekins of sauce and a basket of warm crusty bread so that we could try it. It was wonderful! We each ordered a pasta dish.. my wife selected eggplant Parmigiana, and I chose Veal Parmigiana. I also added a Caesar salad. We really enjoyed our meals. We topped off our dinner with a slice of their Italian cake. It too was delicious! Our server was Elizabeth, and she did a great job. Nice comfortable restaurant. We plan on going back! read more

The atmosphere is amazing! There's tv screens to catch a game and a patio area. There's room for a casual or intimate dining experience. Service was great. I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door and seated promptly. I ordered the pasta trifecta. The clear star of my plate was the cannelloni. The veal osso buco ravioli was underwhelming. It came with a gravy-like sauce whereas I was expecting a tomato or cream-based sauce. The spaghettini with meatball was okay. The cannelloni is a great concept of a crepe with chicken, beef, and veal in a bolognese and bechamel sauce. My oh my!!! The cannelloni alone added an extra star. read more

Super atmosphere and great food. Service good too. Prices reasonable. Early bird dinner menu has good selections and pricing.

Jill, our server was knowledgeable, helpful & had a great personality! Octoberfest food menu was fantastic! read more

The food was cold when it arrived to the table. The service was very slow. For the price they charge I recommended going somewhere else.

Food was good. Asked for extra gravy and was charged another 75 cents for 1.5 tablespoons....I felt that was petty Server was attentive even though it was busy read more

Service is timely and efficient. My seafood platter was delicious; the scallops were perfectly prepared. The restaurant is one big open room, and it was packed so the noise level was high. That is my only complaint. read more

Saturday or Sunday Morning Late Brunch is a great way to Start with a Bloody Mary, which is delicious as well as prompt service to match. Sitting outside on those rare cool mornings in Bluffton feeling a breeze makes for a great place to relax. read more

I love this place. My go to is the chicken Marsala. It is superb. However, never once have I had a decent dessert from here. It's always a minimum of a week old and always tastes like the refrigerator. read more

Had dinner tonight as we were told a great restaurant. Food was good but problems with our order. This restaurant has a new computer system and we got nothing but excuses on delays of service. Managers give nothing but lip service. Here's a suggestion, think about design and training before implementing any new computer system like a real corporation. Total frustrating experience !!! read more

Megan is so awesome. I come in every week because she gives such good service. She remembers my name, my drink and my favorite meals. She suggests new choices. She is my favorite server in Bluffton. Good job Frankie Bones for hiring Megan! read more

Prime Ribeye steak lived up to the hype! The Manager, Doug, made a wine pairing suggestion of the Syriah and explained why it worked well and what to look for. That really elevated the experience. Our server was professional, food was delicious, and the ambiance was relaxed and easy. The dark ceilings make for a cozy feeling and acoustically the restaurant was very quiet from sound absorbing materials. In past experiences at other restaurants I have had a hard time conversating because the cafe was too loud. My wife and I shared easy conversation here and it was a wonderful overall Valentine's Day dinner. Highly recommend. read more

The server neltoya was phenomenal, I came with my family (who lives here) and knew what I needed. I she was absolutely amazing! Food was almost as good as her! read more

Back again for Mother's Day family dinner. The place was packed which supports the quality of the food. See my previous review. Yes, it's not cheap, but you get what U pay for. The waitress was attentive and professional. Lots of local support. It's a well organized restaurant. read more
