Chicken Lollipop
Apex S.

The meal was exceptional. We tried three different dishes and literally each one was perfectly made. I could not and would not want to change anything. Flavorful, perfectly spiced, filling, and yummy. Chicken lollipop Manchurian Frankie Burnt garlic fried rice with egg I usually end up with one dish that inches to the top of the list but I could not pick one here. Would easily recommend everything we ate. Service was super friendly, welcoming, and we were served with a smile. You order at the counter and they bring the food to you. Restaurant was quiet when we first arrived earlier in the evening around 7 pm but quickly filled up and was buzzing on a weeknight. Would suggest dining in for a piping hot delicious meal!

Chicken Lollipop

I was seriously craving Indo-Chinese food, and a friend suggested Frankie's. I'm so happy I decided to try this place! It's a very simple, no-frills restaurant. You order at the counter, and they bring the food to your table once it's ready. It's pretty much a self-serve setup, but the process was smooth and quick. We ordered chicken lollipops, chicken Manchurian (semi-dry), and combination rice--and honestly, everything was so delicious. The flavors were very close to what I used to enjoy back in Mumbai, which made the experience even better. That perfect balance of spice, tanginess, and Indo-Chinese flair was definitely there. The portion sizes were decent, and the food really hit the spot. If you're craving authentic Mumbai-style Indo-Chinese, this place is absolutely worth trying. I would definitely go back for more!

A hidden restaurant but such a gem! We really enjoyed the chicken lollipop and the chicken kebab frankie. (p.s you can order a chili chicken frankie that's not on the menu!)

Absolutely delicious and well worth the drive! I decided to go with my friends to have dinner and we enjoyed everything we had. The aloo and paner chilli frankies were mouthwatering, the chicken lollipops were fresh and delicious, the burnt garlic rice with chicken and hakka noodles with shrimp were tasty and thums up soda was refreshing. You order at the self check out register and grab your own plates and sauces. Utensils are at the table and water and cups were brought to us. We went later in the evening so service was fairly quick. The server was kind and efficient. The establishment was clean and bright. A delicious night out!

Chicken wrap?
Michael S.

I roll into Frankie expecting fireworks... but it kinda fizzled out like a wig in the rain. Here's the deal: That Chicken Kebab Frankie? WRAPPER game on point. Thin, sturdy, held everything without falling apart--which is like expecting your pants to stay on at a party and it actually happens The noodles and chicken pops though? Man... DRY. It was like they were makin' 'em on austerity mode. I was halfway through the bowl and felt like dunking them noodles in my tears just for moisture Service was pretty okay. No wild highs, no dumpster fires. Just there. Like the chair you sit in when you're tired--but also kinda forgetting why you're there. So, would I come back? Maybe. If I'm craving a Frankie specifically, or my noodle lust is low-key--I might swing back. But if I'm hungry and thirsty for full flavor drama? I'd probably bail and hit somewhere that understands sauce. With today's prices, you can't be throwing away money on lackluster food, bruuuuuh! TL;DR: Mikey‑Scale Summary * Wraps: Legit, don't flake out. * Noodles & Pops: Dry AF. Need water. Or gravy. Matter of choice. * Vibe: Meh. Flavor needed to show up better.

TLDR: Great find for Mumbai style Indo -Chinese street food. The place hits the right spots with the limited menu street style Indo - Chinese restaurant. It's a quick service options with self-serve appeal. The staff was good and the ambiance was nice and pleasant for a Sunday lunch. Chicken Lollipop - 3.5/5 Burnt Chili Garlic Fried Rice - 4/5 Schezwan Noodles - 3.5/5 Paneer Chili Frankie - 4.5/5

Chicken kebab frankie
Vicky Y.

Tucked in a corner of a small plaza, Frankie is an unassuming restaurant that I wasn't expecting too much from but I was intrigued by what frankies were so decided to give it a try. So glad I dragged my friend here-- it was delicious and I'll be back! We ordered the chicken lollipop and the meat was super juicy, fell off the bones, and the skin had that perfect crispy bite with just the right kick of spice. We also shared the chicken kebab frankie -- the chicken was a little firmer but still really flavorful, and the wrap itself was eggy and soft, almost reminded me of the wraps you'd find in East Asian/Taiwanese street food. Such a fun and tasty combo. Would definitely come back to try more dishes!

Hakka noodles with chicken
George C.

Came by for a quick dinner for some indo-Chinese food. Only a few parties at the restaurant at 630pm on a Friday so I assume it never gets too busy. Based on other yelp reviews we got the Hakka noodles added chicken, the chicken kebab Frankie, and the chicken lollipop. Once you choose what you want to eat, you order at the counter. There's a side bar that has plates, cups, utensils, to go containers, so it's all self-service. Chicken kebab Frankie - 5/5 - this was the best dish and tastes like a butter chicken wrap Hakka noodles with chicken - 3.5/5 - tasted pretty good and large portions but quite oily Chicken lollipop 3.5/5 - skin was well fried and some pieces were juicy while others were a little dry. Pretty oily as well All the dishes come with a small dish of some sort of chili oil. I do like that all the flavors in the food were pretty strong. That being said, they are all prepared in an oily manner and you won't feel great after eating it even though it is tasty in the moment. Wouldn't mind coming back if I was looking for indo-Chinese food fast.

Chicken Kabob Frankie
Bindu A.

We gave this another chance with the same exact order. This time it was mindblowing! 5 stars for the rice that was done so well!

Noodle Frankie
Neeta M.

The Frankie at this place was really good! The wrapper was super thin and didn't fall apart. The noodles were spicy and yummy. The host was very nice and gave me some extra sauce that I relished! The chicken kabab seemed a little harder. Limited menu - but it hit the spot with the Chinese flavors from India! They have made an effort with the indoor for a fast food joint - but also have left over decor from the old Chinese restaurant. It's cute - since they are catering food items that we call 'Indo Chinese' food items :)

burnt garlic fried rice
Michael L.

Frankie is the sister restaurant to a bunch of authentic Indian places: Puranpoli, SOLKADH, and SURMA. It's indo-Chinese meaning that is Chinese food made the way they make it in India. Now I've never been to India, but it seems authentic to me for whatever that's worth lol. They make the spicy stuff spicy . It is a very casual restaurant you order at the counter and they bring the food to you. They have wood tables and you have to go outside to get to the bathroom.

I visited Frankie Restaurant on a Friday evening. It's a decent spot to hang out with friends--nothing too fancy, with casual music playing in the background, though it was a bit loud at times. It's a self-service restaurant, but the service is good. We ordered the burnt garlic fried rice, which was quite good and came in generous portions. The chilli chicken was also decent. Overall, it's a casual place for a relaxed evening with friends--not exceptional, but good enough for a laid-back outing.

Chicken Kebab Frankie
Sharan N.

Newly opened sister restaurant to Puranpoli and Surmai, located in a quiet strip mall close to Costco Sunnyvale. We visited early Friday evening and found a couple of tables taken up. The vibe indoors is more of a cafe. We were given the menus for browsing and requested to order at the counter when ready. We found an interesting item Veg Chowmein Samosa. Unfortunately, it wasn't available. We loved the Chicken Lollipops, reminded us of Chinese cuisine restaurants in India. The Chicken Kebab had the right balance of flavors and the best Frankie I've had in the Bay Area. Veg Manchurian fry was delicious as well. The menu could do with a few more drink options than just soda. Wish the restaurant all the best!

The older female staff granted us right away. They need more training in how to communicate with customers and be accommodating and considerate. Later on this unprofessional amateur gave me a dissaproving look. Since when did service become a dumpster fire?? Did he buy this place? Definitely taking ownership in a twisted manner. Remember Customers are always right in almost any circumstances. Your job is to make me happy. Food was still ok. There was no service yet they engerly expect you to tip them 18% for non existent service. What a lazy place.

The meat was so tender, the rice was the perfect amount of the softness, and the flavor was so satisfying and 香. Every bite melts in your mouth. Had a piece of popcorn chicken which was decent. Friend ordered one of the house special rice noodles which looked good as well, I'll probably order one of their noodles next time to try out. Service was friendly, they refilled our water twice!

The place is clean and spacious with plenty of parking. Ordering is via QR code which I am not a fan of. I ordered the Rice noodle with beef ribs and pickled mustard. The broth was rich with flavor but I still added green onions and hot sauce. It was a big bowl of soup which I took home 1/2 for another meal. I ate carefully so as not to soil my special outfit. Kudos to me. Good food, good place. Too bad we forgot to take a group pic of ourselves.

The beef was tender and coated in an addictive sauce, while the onions complemented it perfectly. The green beans were also good, although the XO sauce was spicier than what I'm used to. They were supposed to be cooked with minced pork, but there was barely any in the dish. The beef chow fun was just okay--I've had better elsewhere, so I'll probably skip it next time. I'd come back for the black pepper beef and to try a few other dishes on the menu.

Large quantity which was the only saving grace from this long wait. Food was decently good. We were given tong Sui at the end. I don't think I will return. Waiting 25 minutes for our food was too long.

My friends and I shared a ton of dishes to try, but my favorites were the pork jajang mein, spicy jjamppong, dry cooked string beans, and mongolian beef. These all had excellent flavor. I appreciated that the pork jajang mein was more savory rather than sweet. The spicy jjamppong had so much seafood and the broth was actually super spicy and good! Green beans and mongolian beef were great explosions of flavor. I thought the fried items like the salt & pepper fish and kan ping gi were just okay though. The service was pretty standard but they did check up on us a few times. It was just hard to get their attention when we wanted takeout boxes. It's a very casual spot with a small parking lot out back that might be easy to miss. Prices are more on the expensive side, but portions make up for it. Great for family style! Overall: 4/5
