Upon walking in i was greeted with a hello. As I was only getting two slices of pizza the gentleman and young man at the counter were welcoming. Smiles and all. As you enter you walk into a counter with some delicious looming pizza. I ordered two regular slices which they warmed up to a temperature that I love. Not very hot. The right amount of sauce and cheese. very good. Definitely would come back. There is a big dining room area to eat in. Tables and booths. plenty if seating. The dining area was a extremely clean and neat. It doesn't appear to be a new place, the booths seem to be very retro, but very clean. Nice place read more

Most times when I visit Franks, I get a to go order of a slice of meat lovers pizza and a slice of margarita pizza as well. Everything is usually a 9/10, and the service is always very polite and friendly. For the most recent visit, I decided to dine in and had the Spaghetti and Meat Sauce lunch special, which was a reasonable price, considering the current economy. My only suggestion would be to add a soup or salad for a few dollars more, but I'm no economist. This had to be some of the best spaghetti and meat sauce I've had outside of home made. The sauce was flavorful and the pasta was al dente. I also ordered a slice of margarita pizza to go, and that would be my only gripe. The slice was cheesy, the sauce flavorful, but ultimately way too floppy. Despite this, I'll rate the experience as a 8/10, and will continue to recommend Franks to anyone looking for a solid mid range pizza/Italian restaurant. read more

My wife calls me and says, "at Franks do you want anything" I said a pepperoni roll. Whoever served her on a to go order told her the roll just came out of the oven. So out of sheer laziness and or stupidity, he didn't bother putting it in the oven with the slices. When she got home (3mins away) their slices were hot and my pepperoni roll was a solid chuck of mozzarella. Had to heat my oven and bake it myself. 20 minutes later, they were done eating and I was just starting. Angelo, check your employees if you care. Whoever sent my wife out with a cold item should not be in food service. read more

We want to Franks to celebrate my moms birthday and I was excited to try a new pizzeria! The staff was very friendly and attentive and the restaurant offered a great atmosphere. My mom kept saying that she was going to get 4 cheese pizza. I thought she meant 4 cheese pizzas but it was actually a 4 cheese pizza. I thought the cheese pizza was delicious although some people thicket there was too much ricotta. The antipasto was also very good. I was disapproved that I didn't get to try their regular cheese pizza and ordered a margarita pizza. If you are reading this and between a margarita or regular pie, go with the regular pie.... Somebody was also celebrating their birthday in the back room. We had to walk through their party to use the bathroom. If you're in the area and looking to get a quick bite, give Frank's a try. read more

Fraudulent pricing and add on charges. Watch your wallet and check your receipts with this place. The food is actually pretty good but they are scammers. !!!! Franks website advertises 10% off if you place your order online. Well thats a scam. After placing my online order, the final price appeared higher than anticipated. I checked my receipt and saw that there was no 10% discount. There was a 5% discount . Ok that s fine, but the total still seemed too hight. After further review or my receipt Frank's conveniently adds a 20% tip for pick up orders. Im not dinning in. Not sure when tipping for everything became a thing but they certainly should not be automatically adding it to online orders automatically. I confronted whoever was in charge when picking up my order, and got the run around. He did admit that the 10% off is actually more like 5%. Apparently these days people just blindly pay whatever they are charged and due to this ,restaurant's like Franks make a killing on already high priced take out food. I was going to make Frank's my go to pizza spot in the area but I refuse to give my money to scammers. read more

This is a nice family restaurant with plenty of seating. I saw a family enjoying a Mickey Mouse birthday party with about four tables put together at lunchtime. I found a loaded vegetable slice with no cheese that makes it vegan for me! It hit the spot and as I was heading to the back to freshen up some of the plates looked good;, I saw a Primavera. And I could tell the pizza Masters behind the counter, took their job seriously So if you're in the area stop in for a slice of bring the family! read more

We have been to Franks multiple times with a large group as a family dinner. When there, you feel like you are at someone's home having a nice Italian dinner. They set up a large table in the back room, which is nice and spacious so you have room to move around. The place is BYOB, which is always a plus. We go so often that we know some of the waiters and waitresses, they are so friendly and attentive. For appetizers, I really enjoy the calamari salad that comes with peppers and arugula. They give you bread and a salad with your entree. The food is good, nothing fancy, but the prices are very reasonable. Additionally, they allow you to bring in dessert for special occasions. read more

Order over the phone to pickup one pizza when to pick up I waited 40 minutes they asked me 3 times my name and order. I must have seen 20 people get their orders I felt like I was not getting the service I was expecting. When I got home the pizza was over cooked, I will not be returning. read more

just way too inconsistent to recommend. You never know what you are going to get pie is either fine or unfortunately undercooked, sloppy, or burnt and dry. read more

Garlic knots burned to hell, wings were so overcooked they were rubbery and forgotten items in the order. Half of it went in the trash and the other half didn't show up lol. Also "garlic bread" is just a whole loaf of bread with some garlic seasoning on it it's not really garlic bread. That was good though! read more

If you haven't had salad pizza you will get NONE BETTER than at FRANKs in Oakland. It is a thin crispy crust with a thin layer of sauce then cooked to perfection. Out of the oven they top it with fresh lettuce, tomato, roasted red pepper, onion, thin strips of fried eggplant and fresh mozzarella, then drizzled balsamic! My mouth waters just writing this! Best pizza you will ever have! read more

Food is great and so is the service, Mr Angelo Grecco is a really good man who cares about the community of Oakland. I have been here multiple times and every time has been pleasant. This is a spot that can be relied on for a good slice or a dinner. read more

Don't bother. It had no taste, barely had any sauce or cheese. Crust tastes like cardboard. Paid hard earned money for a GF pie that was not edible. Why does GF have to be made with no flavor. Obviously, no one that prepared this has ever tasted it. This was a one and done. Find better ingredients or a different vendor. Otherwise don't offer GF pizza. read more

2 rice balls and a 20 ounce soda is $17.50?.. they came out cold and were not worth the money. Sorry.

Their thin pies are delicious. Overall good food. The only thing they need to adjust is not closing at 9 PM on a Saturday night.

I read some old reviews on Frank's after I had experienced eating there a while back and frankly that's what led me to write this review. Everyone has an opinion, so be it, but mine is in support of this establishment as are so many others. Every other Thursday or so , a group of my friends frequent Frank's and are treated royally. It's good, no matter what we order. Personal size pizzas, dinner entrees or sandwiches are all excellent at a fair price. read more

Jumped off the highway passing through with a van load of hockey players. This was perfect. Tons of slices ready. Sandwiches, Stromboli's. Fast and best of all--delicious. Marked for the future as we will be returning. read more

Discovered Frank's on our way to the Poconos. Stopped for a quick lunch and it was terrific. Our little guy enjoyed the arancini (biggest risotto balls we've seen to date!), chicken tenders and fries and we each had a wrap- Turkey club and buffalo chicken- so good!!!Service was very friendly, lots of space and booths and clean restrooms. Five stars! Thanks Frank's! read more

Standard pizzeria fare. Maybe one dish that's good enough, the rest are eeehhhhh. This photo was a cheesesteak wrap with the works. This was dry, bare and veryyyyy disappointing, as many times. Menu reads "cheesesteak wrap wirh peppers, onions, mushrooms and loads of melted cheese". Really??! That being said, I am VERY lenient w mishaps. issue lies in that EVERY TIME we order at Frank's past 5pm, there's a major mishap. Every time, and that's IF I get the order delivered at all. Franks, you guys can be great... locals want to give the business but consistency in your menu is all anyone would anticipate. read more

Stopped here on the way to PA for a basketball tournament. It's in a strip mall, but very spacious inside, comfortable and airy. One waitress for the entire place in the afternoon makes for a longer than expected stop. There was also a very busy counter service and the girl working there was on the hop. Working super hard and keeping the line moving. As there was only one waitress, we had plenty of time (about 10-15 minutes) to figure out what we wanted, but there were some confusing options. The menu listed the pizza crust choices as small and large sized square, pan or Sicilian crusts. I asked what the difference was between the pan and the Sicilian (I was assuming thickness) and was told they only make square and Sicilian- they don't have pan (despite what the menu says). OK. I then asked if we were ordering a Sicilian, which was definitely my preference, would a small be enough. I was told there's only one size and it has nine slices... which was too big (despite what the menu says). OK again. So then I asked if a large or a small would make sense for us and she just stared at me... so we ordered a large, square, half pepperoni. And when it came, it was...round... Of course. Bizzareness aside, the pizza was OK. Typical. Average. Pedestrian. The crust was OK, and fresh. A little over cooked in places. The sauce was fresh, with a fresh basil aftertaste. New York style, thin crust. Greasy. Very average, but also large... at least that was as on the menu. The people at the table ordered pasta and it looked and smelled great, with very large serving sizes. They also left a $2 tip for their order. They must have felt the service wasn't great either. read more

Visiting family back in NJ and we were dying for NY/NJ style pizza. Frank's really came through! It's fantastic thin crust pizza, the kind I grew up with in Northern NJ - loved Frank's pizza. And the friendly reception I received the moment I walked in the door was much appreciated. Thanks guys! We'll definitely be back next time we're in town. read more

Not sure why attitudes when no tip?? Simple, no Mask, no tip, no return! Whenever I see anyone near kitchen area without mask it set my decision, not sure why good people to get the key to their own success & earning. Shame, my daughters favorite place read more

The waitress we had was the absolute rudest waitress I've ever met. She took 20 minutes to get us our menus, but it was me and my friend alone in the restaurant. No one else was there, it's not like she was busy... we saw her talking to the co workers the whole time. We had to call her over, and when she finally showed up to the table she threw the menus down and disappeared for another long period of time. When the food came out, it was bland and cold, and I ordered 2 plain slices, while my friend ordered a sad excuse for a lasagna. This waitress then proceeded to rush us out of the restaurant, which was fine but where was this speed when it was time to take our order?...? read more

Great pizza! My son was converted to being a Sicilian lover because of Franks. From pizza and chicken parm (hero) to wings and calamari, everything was so good. Just wish the meatballs were a little better, but hey overall they do an excellent job. read more

Please know that I'm only giving one star because I can't give less. They burnt our pizza! They offered put in two more slices for my wife, but they didn't have any more of what I ordered. I said we were in a hurry. If we weren't in a hurry and starving I would have demanded my money back and gone next door for sushi. They told me they were making a fresh pie of what I ordered; and I told them again I don't have time, just give me the burnt ones. At least my wife didn't have to eat burnt pizza. As I was finishing my burnt slices the owner comes over with two new ones and asked if I wanted them. I said no. Why would he add insult to injury and offer a man who's full of burnt pizza fresh pizza? Now that I think about it, maybe I should have accepted the two slices and thrown them in the garbage in front of him. read more

We only got half our order, none of the pizzas were made and we waited for an extra half hour. We were totally ignored by the staff and didn't even get an apology! Never ordering here again! read more

In the waiter's defense, he was serving an impossible amount of customers. I blame the management and kitchen for this review. 10 minutes before being acknowledged. Salad was tiny, plus two tiny pieces of bread. Coke in a bottle was so warm it melted the ice without getting cold, taken from the "fridge" (probably not plugged in). Wings took forever and were so dry I think the chickens they came from lived during the Pleistocene Epoch. Two pizza slices that were to be served 'right away' have not been served though it has been 20 minutes since they were ordered. Caesar chicken wrap was lettuce and same dry chicken, nary a hint of Caesar. Was asked again if I wanted the slices and said yes. That was 5 minutes ago. Friend's chicken parm -his words- pasta was good, sauce was good, chicken is terrible. Ate half my wrap, slices finally came. They were very good. Frank - get fresh chicken and cough up the extra $2 an hour for more wait staff instead of having one person serve a whole dining room. There is a help wanted sign in the window. The food did come out hot, so the kitchen is probably understaffed as well. I am taking the second half of my wrap to have the chicken carbon dated. read more

Wow!! Best pizza ever! I haven't tried anything else yet because the pizza is amazing!! Sauce crispy and consistent flavor every single time! read more

Franks pizza is the best in town. The crust has great flavor and texture and love the pizza varieties from there. I live 3 minutes away and sometimes I'm to lazy and just order delivery which is convenient as well. I'm really picky with pizza and tried another place in town and didn't like their curse or sauce at all. Frank's is where it's at. By the way if you want some pasta order the Shrimp Fettuccini Alfredo! Generous amount of Jumbo shrimp in the dish. The staff is great and always smiling. I met Angelo the owner as well and spent probably around 45 minutes talking with him. Great atmosphere, great staff, and great food. read more

In the land of a thousand pizza shops, it can be hard to find one you love. Franks is it for me. It's food in North Jersey Italian style. Mostly inexpensive except the seafood dishes. Choose to eat in because then you get the bread which is served with a roasted garlic bulb in olive oil. The bread is served fresh and hot. The italian sub is my favorite here. At $7 it is basically two orders in one. Perhaps for locals these are called two "halves". But I eat one and take the other home. Make sure to ask for extra oil and vinegar as a proper North Jersey italian sub should be sour and smooth. There are also a ton of pasta dishes and of course pizza varieties. Again the $9 personal pizza is two meals, unless you want to down the whole thing and crash happily. Who am I to judge? read more

The young female at register is very rude., works like she hates the place and the slices are small and expensive, thumbs down.

Ordered garlic knots and a vegetable calzone. Garlic were very good. Vegetable calzone was ok but hardly any vegetables. Reason for the 3 star the sauce that came with the order was terrible. Watered down, no taste. For a pizzeria gotta do better with the sauce guys. read more

I stopped at Frank's Pizza (Oakland, New Jersey) for a couple of slices back in March of this year (2018). The pizza looked really good. Ordered two (2) slices, but then noticed the female attendant was handling both money and food without wearing gloves. I asked her about that, and she simply brushed me off by literally stating "we're too busy for that." Okayyyy. Well, I am too busy to risk getting sick and catching other germs. No thanks!! Disgusting! read more

Im gonna give this place another shot because I believe it has potential and the amount of crazy specialty pies they have is insane which is a big plus for me. Im gonna do it right though and order a fresh pizza for pickup instead of buying a slice and having them heat it up. The slice just got way to crispy when they heated it up which means their oven is dirty or it was already a well done pizza. I got a slice with vodka sauce and fresh mozzarella which was decent but the bottom of the pizza was way to crispy and flaky. I must say though the crust was good because it wasnt too thick for how crispy it was. The vodka sauce was alright ive had better and the mozzarella was pretty good. Place is nicely set up with plenty of tables and conveniently located next to the dmv which makes for a quick slice after being miserable for hours. Staff was friendly and service was adequate. read more
