Nice location. Easy to find off of Hwy 78 with plenty of parking. Friendly staff however my waiter didn't disappear his name and he wasn't wearing a name tag. Which bothered me because I like to acknowledge the wait staff in my reviews by name. I ordered the appetizer "street corn" aka elotes. I will be honest the street corn recipe needs to be upgraded. Because this corn was a bougie version of elotes. Lacking the accurate amount of mayo and cheese to actually call it street corn. I was very disappointed especially for the price of $5.00. My main dish was the brisket chimichanga laid on top of a tomato sauce over in queso cheese and garnished with pico. AMAZING would be an understatement because the crispy on the shell and tenderness of the brisket was OUYMT OF THIS WORLD. I would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a quality restaurant with a low key atmosphere. But avoid the street corn. read more

Best Mexican in this area! Real Tex-Mex! Brisket Tacos are outstanding. Fajitas are great. Nachos are really good. Fresh ingredients. Bar is outstanding. read more

The food is good, most stuff isn't homemade, probably frozen, but it's alright because it's good. Service is alright, and there have been bad servers, and there has been really good servers, depends on who you get. Not the best place overall, and everything feels kind of sticky. read more

Well I popped in with the kids after spending the day moving in July. The service was good and the food was decent. Quantity of food was decent. My son did have a very irritated stomach after eating there so although the experience there was fine, afterwards not so much. read more

WONDERFUL FOOD. Fabiola is amazing and always entertains our daughter when we are there. We ask for her by name now. The food it fantastic!

We love this place. Have not had anything that was not good. Margaritas are point on as well as the service.

While visiting family north of Dallas, we decided to stop at Frankie's based on all of the high ratings. What a disappointment! First, we were told that we had a 15-20 minute wait, which ended up being about an hour. I was ready to leave, but it was getting late and my family kept saying it would only be a few more minutes and it must be good since they were busy. So, finally we're seated and drinks come out quickly. We place our orders and wait just a few minutes for the food to arrive. Maybe I'm spoiled since I travel all over southern Texas and I know what good Tex-Mex is.. and this isn't. I tried to play it safe and order the tacos which weren't even as good as Taco Bell (a place I try to avoid as well). They were very greasy and lacking filling and flavor. The beans weren't refried.. they were more like very thick bean soup. I couldn't eat it. The rice, way overcooked. No flavor.. unless you consider sticky a flavor. I do not know how this place has such good ratings. The service was good, the atmosphere was casual, cramped, and loud, and the food was mediocre at best. Maybe this is the only so-called "tex-mex" place around the area? I kept hearing how they served a strong drink, but I wasn't drinking. Maybe I should have been! read more

Food was good, found that our rude waitress, nickeled and dimed us on our meals without informing us of any additional charges? Example; ordered drink 10 minutes prior to end of happy hour, we were charged full price, salad instead of vegetables, charge full price for substituting veggies for a salad without informing us at the time of order, and we order the same each time we eat there. I will consider other locations in the future. read more

I love the brisket tacos they are really good. Also check out the sour cream enchiladas they are great also. This is the best Mexican you can get in north Dallas. Luna is the only one that comes close. read more

Food was ok. Our server was good even though she was really busy. Much more expensive to come here vs Papasito's when you factor in kids meals with drinks not included and the cost of the alcohol drinks here. My plate was really hot but the actual enchiladas was not. Also charged an extra dollar to put a small amount of queso on kids enchilada. read more

Fantastic Experience! Went with a large party, service and food were outstanding. We had queso and guacamole to start. We ordered the brisket enchiladas and the Chile relleno stuffed with brisket, both were amazing! Will definitely return! read more

I don't give out 5 stars often, but I have no problem doing it here. Love the place. Nice and quaint. Love the staff. Very nice and attentive. And the food is great. Come for happy hour and have a cheap top shelf margarita. My wife and I come here at least once a week. The bartender, Lucas is awesome!! And Frankie is almost always there. By the way, the manager is Jesse, but my wife and I call him Chorizo. So, when you come, please refer to him as Chorizo, and look for me at the bar!!! Oh!!!

This place is just The Bomb! Everything is just fantastic! Cucumber & Jalapeño Margaritas, dreamy queso, veggie enchiladas, fajitas. Salmon tacos....

Was tracking down a tractor supply and ran across this place. It was a great find. It was a small building off to itself. The outside was well maintained and the decorations was a mixture of reclaimed wood and rusted metal. It was nice. Had brisket tacos and loved it. The salsa was good the chips were fresh and the wait staff was on point and flawless. Everyone here was friendly. We were seated on the patio and with a warm breeze blowing, it made for a very pleasant afternoon. The beer was cold and wet just the way I like it. It was also happy hour at the time which meant $3 drafts if I am not mistaken. That is a great bargain. I will definitely be back suggest anyone driving by to pay them a visit. read more

I'm not sure where the 41/2 star average came from. My grand children live in Wylie so I was excited to see such a highly rated Tex mex establishment close by when I wanted to take my granddaughter out to eat. My standard gauge of any Mexican food place that wants to claim some fame is, they have to bring some good cheese enchiladas with chili con carne. Of course it goes without saying the rice, berms, chips and salsa have to be solid also. When you walk in the front door, the bar is right there. Small with 10-12 spots it was already full with the after work crowd. We sat in the small dinning room to the right. It has the requisite televisions that every place seems to have these days and is alittle on the dark side. My cheese enchiladas had sparse cheese with no onions. The chili con carne on top was watery and flavorless. My granddaughters chicken enchilada was ok according to her and the green chili enchilada remained untouched. Bottom line here is we agreed there is no compelling reason to return to this establishment. We rated it a 5-7 on a 1-10 scale. I'm not sure if the Richardson location has the same owners but we had a similar experience there. read more

The family really enjoyed Frankie's. The service and food were both great. My son and I shared nachos while my husband order a burrito ranchero (I believe that's the name). My husband and I also ordered a frozen strawberry margarita as it was happy hour. With the recent reviews, I was afraid our experience would be dreadful. Fortunately for us, it was not as this is nearly walking distance from the house. We will definitely be back! read more

We love Frankies!! The best service at all locations. Always amazing food and the bartender on weekends ROCKS!!

Food too greasy. Grease was running off my tortillas. And when I got them home, the grease had turn thick and white.

This place has it going on! The food is good but not unbeatable. The place is mostly clean. The ambiance is good. The waitstaff is very pleasant and knowledgeable. I will recommend this place and return myself. The bar up front is neat. A couple of big TV's and a young talkative bartender that has a good attitude. read more

Been here few times.. Nice place for Mexican food. Food is good but can't definitely say it's the best. Little Better than the regular Mexican chain restaurants. read more

If you like hot sauce, don't eat here! The amount they give you is a joke. They serve their hot sauce in a little, plastic "nut/mint cup". You have to break 1 chip into 4 pieces to even dip it into the cup. They'll give you a refill but they're definitely preferring that you don't want much. Also, their brisket tacos tasted good but the meat was tough, stringy and dry. They give you a serving of lettuce for your tacos but the lettuce is chopped up really tiny and it's also served in one of those little plastic mini-cups. There are much better Mexican restaurants around! Try Ernesto's on NW Hwy! read more

Great food. Insane fast service (almost, but not quite, too fast). Attentive staff, even when crowded. Also, if you don't get the sopapilla bites (bites-sized dough balls, rolled in cinnamon and drizzled with honey and then served with ice cream), you're missing out. I would seriously come here just for those some time. read more

Frankie's - Get the sopapilla bites. Seriously. - Mexican Near Me - Sachse, Texas

My wife and I love this restaurant! Their brisket tacos are the best in town but we especially love their brunch options. They have several different breakfast skillets as well as some traditional breakfast options, all of which are delicious. Margaritas are excellent too!! read more

We came for dinner on Mother's Day. This was my second visit, and I am happy I chose Frankie's. My wife said get taco was the best taco she has ever had. She ordered the tex mex platter and I ordered the brisket enchiladas. The chips and salsa are well above average and the mini sopapillas were excellent. My wife has a new favorite Mexican restaurant. read more

Looks are deceiving!! This joint is da bomb!!! You will not be disappointed!! Everything tastes great!!

Great brunch today, fairly priced. I had the migas and they were perfect. Waitress was super friendly plenty of seating so no wait. Chips and salsa stayed full the entire meal. Water refills came right on time. Not my first visit but so glad we came today. Love the fact ALL the waitstaff was wearing cowboys gear. Go Cowboys!!!! read more

The food here is above average, but don't look twice while you drive by or you'll miss the place. The place seems to be crowded every night, especially weekends. We were told it would be 30 - 45 minutes before we were going to be seated. There were about three open tall tables in the bar so we sat there. The staff was attentive and friendly. My wife and I split the Brian's Enchiladas. Our daughter had the soft fajita tacos (chicken). The server had the kitchen split our plate for us. That was very nice of them to do. My daughter's tacos came with soft corn tortillas. The tortillas were falling apart. The only disappointment was the Tres Leches cake we ordered for desert. When it came out it seemed very "professionally" made so I asked our server if they made the tres leches in-house and she admitted they did not. It was not horrible. It tasted like a tres leches cake that you would buy at a grocery store. It was a let down to have everything else be above average and then have the dessert be below average. We will go back again and we will try some other items, but we will skip the tres leches. read more

i got food poisoning. horrible service too, the servers poured my drink on me. but the food was at least good, so five stars.

Waiter coulda cared less about helping us. Was more interested in his conversation in the kitchen never refilled my salsa. Enchiladas were cold and food is too bland for the price. Lived out here for 20 years and this place has gone downhill. read more

Great food and great service! Several options to choose from standard classics TexMex to very tasty different takes on enchiladas and tacos.

We love Frankie's! The brisket enchiladas are our favorite but I also love their breakfast. The menu offers so many options! And if you sit at the bar, it's always a pleasant experience with their great staff. Definitely try one of their Bloody Marys or jalapeño margaritas! read more

Awesome food and amazing customer service! I hope this covid mess doesn't close them. Great Margaritas too!

Popped in for a surprise dinner last Wednesday because the wife forgot to thaw the chicken. But really, any excuse is a good reason to go here. The queso alone is enough reason. You will order.
