We finally tried this place after we always pass by it frequently. The place is not hard to find and the place is cool (really appreciated during summer time) , clean and got a lot of sitting options. The menu got good variety but this time, we orders the Chimichanga and pan seared tilapia. The food came out fast with good proportions. They have free chip and salsa for our to go order and the salsa is really good! The people are friendly and do not rush you to order at all. We will definitely try other food next time or maybe try eating there for a change... read more

Why oh why did you change the menu? We haven't been able to go to Frankie's in a few months because my husband had broken his leg. We have missed it and discussed it many times over the last few months. We had our wedding reception here. It is a beloved restaurant, so imagine our disappointment when we go in today and find that the menu had been changed. The food is still good, but I am highly disappointed that I no longer can get street corn with my flautas although our favorite waiter said that he would make an exception for us. Please change the menu back to the authentic Mexican food that we love. read more

This is not Mexican food, it's all Tex-mex. It may all seem like Mexican ingredients but idk what they're doing or not doing to this food. I'm a big guy and I ate less than half my meal. There are so many better options in the area, don't bother stopping here. Service was good, atmosphere was very... melanin deficient. read more

When traveling to Texas to visit family I asked ro have authentic Mexican food since we do not have much in Florida. This place does not look like much but it is great! Very authentic, great food and drinks. read more

Been a while since I've been to Frankie's...like since COVID. They have enclosed the patio since I was there last, which has at least doubled their capacity, which is great! I ordered the fresh lemonade w cucumber and they aren't kidding, it's very fresh and refreshing! I ordered the brisket enchiladas and they are amazing! They have just a bit of kick to them but not overly spicy at all. Their fresh guacamole is so creamy and best of all (for me) no cilantro. Their service was quick and they are very professional and friendly. Even if they don't know you or remember you, that treat you like they do! read more

So it has been a minute since this visit, life is getting a little busy, recently engaged and currently handling some minor health issues. That's enough of that. We love Frankie's and there was a festival Holiday atmosphere. The service is always top shelf. Waiters / waitresses are always attentive. Fresh chips and wonderful and flavorful salsa. I enjoyed some tamales. Prefect just like grandma would make. Sweet tea to enjoy as well. We are looking forward to our next visit to Frankie's. I expect You and Your Family should too. read more

This Frankie's, I'm 90% sure anyhow, is unaffiliated with the Frankie's set of restaurants in Sachse/ Wylie. Those two would be my top pick for Mexican near me. This Frankie's is amazing too. The chips and salsa were delicious, and I loved the chicken tacos with beans I had here. I found the interior to be very standard festive Tex-Mex restaurant fare. Our server was great, checking in on us many times! Would give this 4.5 stars if possible. Highly recommend to satisfy your Tex Mex cravings! read more

I was expecting to much because of the great reviews, disappointing. Order enchiladas with poblano sauce and it was flavorless and kinda salty, no poblano taste. Chicken with mole, it was dry and salty, do not recommend this plate either. So, overall, my Mexican palate refuses to give it above 2 stars. read more

This is one of those "if-you-know-you-know" kind of places. It's easy to miss if you're just driving by. I met someone there for lunch and the first good sign was the crowd fill of construction workers and laborers. Always trust the working lunch crowd to know what is good, fast and filling. The service was great , everyone was smiling and said hello. It's an unpretentious place with a warm local feel. For lunch I had the build your own enchiladas special. I had 3 chicken enchiladas with mole sauce plus a side of rice and borracho beans. You can mix and match fillings, sauces and sides so the combinations are endless. My lunch date had the ceviche, which also came with mini tostadas with guac, and a side of chicken stuffed deep fried jalapeños. Those were a hit. Service was quick, the food hit the spot, and it was a relaxed vibe. Frankie's has been around for a while for good reason. It's a no frills Tex Mex place. read more

Picked up lunch at Frankie's. Had a number 3 special. It was very good. And enough for my husband and I for lunch and another meal for tomorrow. I ordered some of the Serrano hot sauce! Wow! Tasty but VERY hot. I really liked the refried beans because they were chunky with beans and not just a pureed paste could have used more chili sauce on the enchiladas. Overall a good lunch. I'll order from them again. Try it. read more

Texas has great Mexican Cuisine, likely the best in the US. Visited Frankies this past weekend. As with all good Mexican restaurants, it looks just okay inside and out. It's kinda the way you want Mexican restaurants to look. We were a party of four with a baby. Our party was promptly seated, even on a busy Saturday evening. The infant chair was promptly delivered with along with freshly made tortilla chips and hot/mild sauces. After a recommendation, we all had the Brisket enchiladas served with beans and rice. The brisket was pulled and shredded, then wrapped in slightly crusted tortillas. The food was awesome as was the service. You gotta try Frankies. read more

Very comfortable environment. Attentive, but not intrusive, service. Good food. If this is in or on your normal traffic pattern, go for it. I went out of my way to try Frankie's based on reviews and wasn't disappointed; but, my regular haunts are equal to the task and closer. All in all, a good experience. read more

food and frozen margaritas were fine but i couldn't look over the roach crawling across the wall that the bartender tried to swat but missed so it just continued across the wall while i tried to eat my food. i dont like leaving negative reviews but unfortunately i wont be back. read more

We drove in from Dallas after a night of college athletics under the advise of one of our executives. Fine choice indeed! We were seated quickly in the main dining area, which is cozy and dim lit. The chips and salsa came out quickly, and we ordered queso. Delicious. We had the enchiladas, which are easy to build. There's three tier of choices. We also had beef tacos and the fettuccine dish. The food is amazing. It's also well priced. We need to visit again. read more

The food is always great. We sit at the bar and the bartenders provide great service.

The people here are nice and friendly. They make you feel welcome and acknowledge you. The guiso stew isn't for everyone - it's savory, but thicc. The crunchy ground beef taco has a lot of flavor and I would get it again. This place used to be a Dairy Queen but then they took over and I think it's in a great spot. I would definitely come back !! read more

I believe this is a new Frankie's Place now. The cheap margaritas are actually refreshing, not tart. We had tacos and margs in honor of Cinco de Mayo. I had yummy grilled shrimp tacos and my husband had brisket tacos; both delicious, served fast n hot. The salsa and chips are delivered upon being seated and updated throughout the seating. The waiter was fun and professional as he kept up with our table of two as well as all the others in our section. My only critique is the cheap cutlery. This place deserves good table service. read more

What happened? You ask the bartender for the happy hour specials. He doesn't know. He gives you a menu with the specials. But he cannot give you the wifi password to access the menu. This is not service! Oh well, plenty of other Mex places nearby read more

My favorite Mexican restaurant! The food it amazing and the staff is super friendly. Also, love the drive thru margaritas!

Such a cool spot. Really welcoming staff and thankfully we got there on a off day as it was half empty. We started with House margs, frozen margs, and a strawberry jalapeño margarita. All were fantastic and strong. The guac was super fresh and so was the salsa. Everyone shared the Mexican lasagna (table favorite) and the brisket enchiladas. So flavorful! Can't go wrong with anything on the menu! read more

Friends and I went for Brunch. First, the owner and staff were really friendly. They were straight up honest about their mole and let us taste it. They said it's good but not the best you'll taste. I appreciate that. Our food and there recommendations were great. We ordered the Elsa and the Augustine. Great dishes. Finished with sopapillas. I will not hesitate going again read more

Highly recommend the Brunch on Saturdays and Sundays. This is one of my wife and I's favorite Mexican restaurants.

Some of the best margaritas in Dallas! I usually don't start restaurant reviews by starting with drinks but the margaritas here are so good they deserve the spotlight. The brisket queso is some of the best in Dallas The nachos are also really good and they let you customize them. Knocked one star off because the service could've better the few times I've been here. read more
