Everything at Frankie Bones was amazing! Our servers were friendly and attentive. The portions were huge (even the kids meal!), and the food was delicious. We ordered a few appetizers, and our favorite was the toasted ravioli. I LOVED the prime rib. I got the 16oz so I'd have leftovers, and it even reheated beautifully. Incredibly tender and flavorful at the restaurant and the next day. We planned on getting ice cream for dessert around the corner, but Frankie Bones' dessert menu was too good to pass up. I loved everything about the key lime pie. The carrot cake was a HUGE portion, and it was delicious. So glad we stopped here for dinner. You won't be disappointed if you check it out! read more

We visited for the first time and all I can say is wow! The ambiance, service and food were outstanding. The mussel appetizers were delicious, as were the meatballs. I had the sliders as a meal, which were easily the best I've ever had in my life. My wife had the fettuccine Alfredo which was also delicious. We would happily return for another meal! read more

Today we have our sights set on Sea Pines and the great views from Quarter Deck; however, my Grande Ocean Deck for coffee is 44 degrees. Change of Plans - now off to Frankie Bones, arguably the BEST southern Italian on Hilton Head -Fresh CLAMS in marinara. The BEST Italian on Hilton Head is Ombra Cucina (but no lunch menu.) Some 60 years ago my Dear Wife and I discovered Fresh CLAMS in marinara as a staple at several hole in the wall Outer Banks restaurants; later we found excellent Fresh CLAMS in marinara in the Florida Keys. Georgie's Restaurant in Newport Oregon offers a great plate as well. DiMillo's On the Water in Portland Maine deserves a shoutout. Fresh CLAMS are a must for us!!!! Frankie Bones is a MUST for us - Upscale, deep dark leather. Today is St. Patrick's Day and Frankie Bones offers a special one-page Irish menu, and this menu is worth consideration.... Mom prepared Corned Beef and Cabbage at least once a month, and honestly, I find most restaurant Corned Beef and Cabbage to be BLAND. I know the Fresh CLAMS in marinara is excellent. Frankie Bones is slammed by noon today. About 32% are here for Corned Beef and Cabbage; 27% of locals are here for Fresh CLAMS in marinara. I am the 1% who insists on pasta al dente. Jen does an excellent job, and all servers should be trained to bring cheese and hot red pepper to table with pasta.... Jen, work on this. Ambience - Out of Godfather's.... The vibe Italian St. Patrick's day, and packed by noon. Yes, Russell Crowe should have been nominated and won the Oscar this year - Perhaps, the younger generation is ill-informed on WWII. read more

We had a group of 12 people for a friend's birthday for dinner. Everybody at the restaurant was very friendly and helpful. He worked very hard to make sure ourour dining experience was good. We had a few mishaps with drinks, but they were rectified. The food was outstanding! I had the Redfish Pontchartrain special. It was so good! I would love it if they kept this on the menu permanently. Everybody was very happy with their meals. I always start up with the escargot. It is so nice and garlicy and buttery. A few of us got it. Some had salads. All of the entrees were enjoyed, as well as the desserts. read more

I so wanted to love this place, but the food and my drinks were not so good.

Jacie, our server, was excellent! thank you for making our dining experience wonderful. The food was amazing too!

We have been visiting Frankie bones for over 20 years and it never disappoints. Unfortunately on this visit I was not feeling that well so ordered chicken noodle soup and a fresh beet salad, not the things I would typically order. Fortunately, the two old fashioned drinks lifted my spirits. Tommy was our server and he took good care of the six of us, three petite fillets and one order of their great meatballs and spaghetti. Everyone was very pleased with their meal as well as the service and we would gladly return. I must've been feeling pretty bad as I did not take my usual pictures but everything was presented beautifully And my beet salad exceeded expectations read more

I'd actually rate this place a 3.5. This is likely one of those places where just a few items on the menu are stellar and the rest is meh. So you have to visit several times to find the items worth repeating. The menu has a little bit of everything. Pastas, meatloaf, ribeye, weinerschnitzle, fish and lots more. We started off with the beer cheese soup with rye croutons. It was their soup of the day and if they happen to have it, DEFINITELY get this ! It was excellent. I got the Cesar salad and it was just ok. Not nearly enough dressing on it. The dressing is made in house and was good, what little there was of it. Hubby got the veal parmesean. We both agreed it was very good ! The spaghetti with marinara on the side had a fantastic flavor. The veal was thick and coated in cheese. If they could make the breading just a bit more crispy, it would rival the best restaurants. I ordered the seafood frutti del mar without calamari in it. Just before it was scheduled to come out, the waitress said they changed the menu and they could no longer take out the calamari, so she asked if I wanted to order something else. Their shrimp is local, so I was really looking forward to a shrimp and pasta dish. (besides fettuccine alfredo). She said I could make my own dish, so we decided to get the blackened shrimp with pasta, tomato cream sauce, bacon, and mushrooms. When it was delivered by a guy from the kitchen, it was a POOL of sauce the thin pasta was swimming in. There was not a single shrimp to be found. It took a while to find someone to ask, um where is the shrimp ??? The waitress went back to the kitchen and brought back a small bowl of cooked shrimp. The pasta was still swimming and I wish I had a colander to drain some of it off. The thin pasta basically turned to mush in the pool of liquid. You would think the cook would know better than to add so much, but ... I then asked the waitress for some red chili flakes for my pasta. She forgot. I was 3/4 of the way finished with my meal before she checked on us again and when I reminded her again, she asked if I still wanted it. Then at the end of the meal she asked if I would like a bag for my box of leftovers. I said yes, and she never came back. Haha, ok. We got a chianti with dinner and it was very good. For dessert we got a warm piece of butterfinger cake and ice cream. Definitely get this !!! It was fabulous! My husband and I were almost fighting over the last spoonful. This dessert is made in house. The atmosphere is very comfortable. Nice black and white sketches on the wall, neon lights, and comfy booths. I think once you found the right thing to order here, you'd be very happy. read more

I love that you can make reservations here, especially with a large group! We had a private room which allowed us to talk and hear each other. Deep was our server and did an excellent job! We tried lots of different foods and my husband said his veal piccata was the best he had ever had. My cod Savannah was really good as well. Only thing I would change is have the green beans tender enough to cut with a fork. I had to use a knife and saw them read more

Came to brunch at Frankie bones and it was amazing! The service was top notch, thank you Nicki! Chicken flatbread was 11/10!

Went for lunch. The food was great. We really enjoyed the Pecan crusted chicken salad and the Spring rolls for an appetizer. Andrea was our Server and she was the definition of professionalism. Very accommodating and on top of it. the place has a big locals following and what they lack in a view they make up for in food and service quality. The place also reminds me of a 50s or 60s Chicago/ New York old school Lounge. Very cool vibes. read more

Frankie Bones Hilton Head, SC Food: We had the Veal Parmigiana and Schnitzel. Everything came to the table hot and fresh, I couldn't believe the giant portions.

Ok so 1st class management shout out! Today we were celebrating my son's 13th birthday and he got a pasta dish that separated the sauce and became oily! Not only did they bring home some soup to settle his stomach but they also comped his meal plus threw in a cannoli and a candle to celebrate his B day - that speaks volumes for their customer service! read more

We picked Frankie Bones for lunch because the menu was so big and had a little bit of everything. Salads, pizza, burgers, fried foods, seafood, Italian dishes, etc. I went in excited to try the cannelloni and was not disappointed. My only comment was it seemed a little under-salted but nothing a little table salt couldn't fix. My kids really loved how big the fried mozzarella pieces were and the crazy cheese pull they got. Everyone was happy with their meals and the service was really attentive and pleasant. My son is a sucker for a novelty cup so he was really excited that he could get their light up cup (for extra $ obviously) with just the lemonade. The crème brûlée was also amazing, all around a really nice lunch. I loved the interior design and all the 1960's touches. On an island full of beachy themed restaurants (which I love), it was nice to have a little change in scenery. read more

Interesting bar/restaurant to visit. Named after the gent called the "Godfather of American Rave Music" and renowned party creator/organizer, the walls are filled photos, most signed, of early celebrities, professional sports icons, and noted political personalities, the place screams history.... Think Rat Pack, Babe Ruth, Joe DiMaggio, Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Becall, Marilyn and the like..... The Great Gal went with a Tuna Melt and fries. I ordered a Parlay, 1/2 Reuben and cup of Chicken Soup. We enjoyed both meals which were good, but I would not describe as remarkable. The other two lunches were a grilled cheese with bacon and 1/2 corned beef with a spinach salad.... Both described as good. We were served politely and ably by Allison with the cutest "y'all" accent. We enjoyed our visit. I would think you would too! read more

Dined here last night with a large party and the service was 5 stars, but my steak was 3 stars. Ordered the 4oz filet medium and it was well done. To be fair, I did not send it back, so I didn't give them the opportunity to fix it but I don't like sending food back. I also had asparagus (good) and broccoli (not seasoned and like eating raw - healthy, not appetizing). The Cheesecake is a must get here. We get it every year and it's on point every time! read more

Delicious and great service! We will definitely be back. I had the New York with whipped potatoes and green beans. All of it was good. Food was served piping hot.

I mostly go in for lunch, but dinner also has some good specials.

My Mom and I went there for dinner this past week and it was superb. we both had a hankering for red meat and they did not disappoint: I had the 16 oz prime rib and she the fillet mignon. both were cooked as ordered which is always appreciated. my side of twice baked mashed potato was amazing! and the green beans done perfectly. the extra side of sautéed mushrooms were yummy for the prime rib along with some bernaise. I ordered the calamari as an appetizer - lightly fried and cooked perfectly - not chewy nor too soft, and the marinara with it was spot on. The ambiance is always great there, and all the staff was super attentive and helpful. almost too fast delivering our entrees! This was the day after the Heritage ended and while busy, not overly crowded, which is nice (we are locals). thank you Frankie Bones! see you soon... read more

I used a map app to locate a restaurant near the house where four of us were staying. Then I used Yelp to look at their listing, the photos of the interior and their entrees. Then I looked over their menu via the Yelp app and decided to give them a try. They had a four star rating from 742 reviews. I called to see if I needed a reservation and I did. It was 5:15 pm and they said they were very busy but if I could get there for 5:30 they could squeeze us in. We were three minutes late and they seated us. As we walked through the dining areas, I saw every table full of people in groups of 4 - 6 or larger. Big band music was playing via the ceiling speakers. Each booth was covered in button tucked brown leather and could seat six comfortably. Service was quick and attentive. We decided to skip the appetizers and order our drinks and entrees. I ordered bottled water and received Saratoga Still. We ordered the Caesar salad and added the Grilled Chicken, two orders of Fettuccine Alfredo and I ordered for myself the Petite Filet Mignon, and added the Grilled Local Shrimp. I substituted the Rice Pilaf for the Whipped Potatoes. The rice was very tasty in a butter sauce. The petite filet was only 4 oz and the right size for me since I had two sides and French Bread. It was cooked exactly how I ordered it and came with a steak sauce. The grilled shrimp were cooked perfectly and delicious. Everyone else ate at least half of their oversized portions and all of them brought their leftovers home. For dessert my granddaughter ordered the Tiramisu and her friend ordered Vanilla Ice Cream. I ordered the Butterfinger Crunch Cake which came with vanilla ice cream. We all thoroughly enjoyed our desserts. The Butterfinger Crunch Cake was unique. I had never tasted anything quite like it. It was very good. Parking was a bit of a challenge. Two spots I passed on would have been very difficult to fit my minivan into. As I was turning around to try again, I got lucky when another van was leaving and gifted me their parking space. read more

We had a fantastic meal here this evening. We began with martinis which were made to perfection! We delved right into entrees - I had the brick steak with stuffed shrimp and my husband had the weiner schnitzel- a surprise at a steak house. Both entrees were delicious! My steak was cooked perfectly to medium rare and my husband was thrilled with all parts of the weiner schnitzel- especially loving the red cabbage. Our server, Gerard, was very attentive and made sure everything was great with our dinners. The manager came by to ask how we were doing - a nice plus in the restaurant business (IMO). We ordered a bottle of Super Tuscan red wine - absolutely yummy! This was our first time here and we have already decided that we will be back. If you enjoy higher end meals and service, definitely come here! read more

Sauce is weird. Tastes like tomato soup. The margherita pizza while said it had fresh mozzarella (as any margherita should) did not in fact have fresh mozzarella but just regular sliced. Kind of awful to imply it's fresh but it's not. The cannelloni were disgusting, just mushy inside and kind of like a cat food consistency. The atmosphere is great. The food not so much. read more

It was my first Frankie bones experience and my group of 6 loved it! From the moment we walked in, the retro atmosphere set the perfect tone for a fun and elegant evening. The cozy booths and classic decor made it ideal for our gathering and the service was great despite them being pretty busy. The food was excellent--everyone in our group raved about their dishes. The steaks were perfectly cooked and seasoned, and the seafood options were fresh. The appetizers, like the calamari and crab cakes, were a huge hit and disappeared quickly with our group! We appreciated our servers recommendations. Our servers were incredible--attentive, friendly, and efficient, ensuring our large group had everything we needed. The restaurant handled our group seamlessly, making it an stress-free and enjoyable evening for everyone. Check it out next time you're here! read more

Been a long time having lunch here my bad as it should've been sooner. Great place for a nice lunch. Easy parking, nice eating rooms with seating at a large bar.

Don't forget to start with great calamari. Prices very reasonable. Of course best service server Stephanie was great. Try lunch next week:)! read more

We visited here after (living about 40 minutes away) three years of 'thinking about it!' Big mistake in not acting far sooner. First, it's comfortable, convenient (to find parking), accommodating (from entry till departure. Everyone we encountered was sincerely interested in our having a great experience, and exceedingly proficient in the culinary arts of food preparation and service. In short we had a great experience, and will do so again and again! (Note to self: Do Not Wait So Long to Eat at Frankie Bones Bluffton!) First, it was my wife's birthday and I alerted them in advance--as they said they'd not that on the reservation. Second....perhaps best of all: One of the few truly fine 'Early Dinner specials' Places around! Thirdly: it is exceptionally fine dining, at exceptionally fine prices, served (in our case) by a young server who was knowledgeable, gracious, educated and a trusted advisor on the menu! We had a great dinner salad which was big enough to split. We both enjoyed the prime rib special early diner portion (big enough to have each of us to carry ample amounts home for a lunch the following day). As a Birthday surprise my wife got presented with a dessert sampler which was greatly enjoyed! AND will be repeated on our next visit! Full bar and wines of course, but NOTE during 'Early Dining hours there are wine by the glass specials to go along with the real-deal dinners. Early Dining Aficionados....you've got your place! It's....Now, OUR place too! read more
