The ladies were amazing - gladly took our order with 25 minutes to close. Our first visit and the triple cheeseburger and sausage with onions and peppers rocked our evening - tasted fresh and the sausage snapped - love it. Potato salad was yummy. This is a cute well kept hidden secret. Thank you ladies for accommodating Angie and me. read more

Took over 50 minutes to just get 2 hot dogs. 4 girls working but service slowwww. Sat 15 mins until someone came over to just take our order. Young girl cooking seemed more interested in flirting with the 3 guys sitting at bar than cooking more than 1 hot dog at a time. At least the hot dogs were good. Won't come back. Not worth it. read more

I had the double cheeseburger and it was outstanding. The burger tasted like in n out burger minus the special sauce. Friendly staff. I will be back read more

Perfectly Frank - New American Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

I love this little hot dog joint! It's a no-frills dining option that people really seem to enjoy. It's usually pretty packed when the hubs and I stop in for the occasional lunch. What I particularly like is that the hubs can get a hotdog fix and I can get a burger fix without getting outlandish proportions and we can leave without feeling overly guilty. I usually opt for the #3 daily lunch special, which comes with a perfectly sized double cheeseburger, a side (I'm partial to the cheesy tots!), a drink, and a choice of cookie (Chocolate chip for me, please!). It's really the perfect little burger meal that sort of takes me back to my childhood. The hubs always goes with one of the hotdogs or hotdog-infused concoctions (most recently Magic Mike). One of these days I need to try the grilled chicken wrap. I watched as one of the girls made the wrap one weekend and it looked SO good. Speaking of the girls. The ladies who operate this place work their booties off and do it with smiles on their faces, even when it's a madhouse. They're on the go nonstop. So make sure you tip 'em well!!! read more

Burger tasted good and they cook it fresh in front of you. Better than fast food. Took a little while because it was a good amount of people there. read more

I've been to the location at ODU often and always had (and still have) an excellent lunch there. We were going to the Cinema Cafe for a movie and I noticed that this location was right down the road. I thought, "why pay so much at the movie when we can have a nice, inexpensive meal before we go?" We were not disappointed! A great, easy dinner before the movie for much less than we would have spent at the theater. I had two hot dogs with sauerkraut and mustard (a must for this ex-New Yorker), along with crispy fries and onion rings (ask for a half order of each). My partner had the egg salad plate and said it was fresh and delicious. Service was attentive and fast. Highly recommend! read more

Try to visit once a week for my Hot Dog fix. They have a nice menu with some fresh pasta salad, potato salads, etc. hot dogs are excellent as is the chili for the dogs. Burgers are also great. It's a great place to bring your family. read more

Absolutely love this place! Everyone is so kind and food is always on point. If in the mood for easy simple food highly recommend!

Yummy food with a huge selection. The workers work hard to provide fast and courteous service!

I've seriously been missing out by not coming in sooner! Located in the Edinburgh shopping area of Chesapeake near Target, this place is the epitome of lunchtime diner - long bar for patrons with tables lining the opposite wall. It was hopping yesterday (Mon 12/27) at lunch time. I figured it would be busy considering the holiday, but I had no idea it would be packed full. And the entire visit, I saw 3 young ladies busting their booties to make sure everyone was taken care of! I know a lot of places are struggling right now with lack of hired help, but these 3 should be commended for their hard work! I don't know how they kept up. My hubby and I were meeting some family friends (collectively, we had a party of 10 and managed to steal 2 tables at the back of the place as another large group was leaving. One of the servers was quick to get the tables cleaned and reset for us. There's a digital menu by the grill and printouts on the tables available. They have a lot to offer aside from their hot dog varieties - burgers, wraps, salads and the like. They also have combo lunch specials to keep things simple. And they have desserts, cookies and milkshakes. Most everyone we dined with had a dog or burger. I opted for a grilled chicken sandwich, which was perfectly cooked and good size for the price. I was excited about some crinkle fries (it reminds me of childhood at Irwin's counter in Chesapeake). Hubby had the chicago dog, which he really liked. Nothing fancy here - you'll get your order on a paper plate. Condiments and napkins are available on the tables. Overall, a great experience and we will definitely return! For the price and service, it doesn't get much better. read more

Tater Tots! I was told that PF had great Tater Tots! So I ventured in. I sat at the counter and was instantly amazed by Ashley and company. These young ladies had everything in control. The flow of orders just rocketed out. I opted for the cheeseburger with onions....which surprised me when the onions were cooked on the grill with the burger. Cheeseburger is not fancy, but tasty, especially with those onions! With my cheeseburger, I went with fries. Yes, I wanted tater tots, but unfortunately, there were out. Fries were tasty, still trying to decide if their secret sauce is good. Figure it has to be, I ended up splitting my fries, either dipped in ketchup or the secret sauce. So try it. Lastly I was very impressed with the way the ladies handled a customer who was "challenging". I thought they handle themselves very well. So, with tasty food and great customer service, I will have to come back....and I'm coming for those Taters! read more

if I could give a negative review I would cause honestly my experience at perfectly franks was terrible, owner was a real piece of work she wasn't the owner/ manager I would have reported her but I can, def do not recommend at all. if u end up going I hope you don't run into the owner/manager. I will never go to any perfectly franks again because of her she's just ruined my whole love for the place. also mostly everything you get there u can get for cheaper at a grocery store there no point in spending money here just take ur 5 bucks and get two bags of frozen fries. read more

I wish there was a way to put 0 stars, this place just serves frozen food that's been reheated, and wait time is ridiculous for something I could just buy from the Walmart frozen isle. read more

First time here and n it wasn't bad at all! Placed an order for to go. Their hot dog definitely has a snap when you bite into it which I loved. Ordered the Chicago dog and didn't think much of it. But I am planning to go back and see how the other food items are read more

Our group, which ranges from 25 to 45 retirees, meets here a few times a year for an early lunch. The staff is amazing. The young ladies who wait on our tables have plenty of patience with us. Not only do we talk a lot but we move around. However they find us. They have the order/checks organized well by names. The food is always delivered hot and fresh and my food has always been just as I ordered. My boyfriend had a hot sausage and a Chicago dog today. He said they were delicious. I ordered a tuna sandwich with home fries. I didn't know about their home fries before. They are freshly cut potatoes that are on the thinner side. Their regular fries are crinkle cut. I had the home fries today. They were very tasty, especially with their special sauce. The tuna sandwich was delicious. It isn't often I say a tuna sandwich is delicious. But this one was. I will order it again the next time I visit. read more

Love this place!! Always friendly and fast service with good food! Can't wait to go back!

Good food, good service, seemingly always busy but not overcrowded. Could be a little cleaner but it is definitely not filthy.

Spectacular staff and food...I always have an enjoyable time when I go. They do treat you right there.

Great local diner with the best snappy Hormel dogs in Chesapeake, Virginia! The chili for the dogs is top notch and the special sauce (which you can buy by the bottle for $5 and bring it back for a refill) is one of favorites for dipping home fries. This spot draws a big local crowd and it always seems busy. They have a pretty decent sized menu, but my favorite is their snappy dogs! If you are a Tony's Hotdogs or Jimmy's Hotdogs fan (both closed due to retirement of the owners), you will love Perfectly Franks! They serve breakfast and lunch and prices are very reasonable. Unfortunately, they, like everyone else, seems to be suffering from lack of staff, so don't expect "fast food service". The folks who work there bust their butts and still remain friendly. I definitely recommend this little gem! read more

Just plain great food and the ladies are always very nice and deliver great service! We love the Chesapeake location! read more

Perfectly Frank - a plate of fried tater tots and a hamburger - New American Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Great service! Super affordable. I love just going there randomly when I am craving some food and simple food!

Went out to lunch today with my sister. This is the kind of lunch place you wished you knew about a long time ago. I had a double cheeseburger a side of fries. Sister had hot dogs and a side order of both fries and onion rings. A great side to order when you can't decide which item you crave. Our server was Paige, and she was very efficient, had a great smile and personality. Food was excellent, hot and fresh. Even better was if you ordered a daily special it comes with a FREE cookie. Yummy. Not A fancy place but food is excellent and service outstanding. You will love it I'm sure. read more

Overall: Pretty good. We stopped off here before hotting up Cinema Cafe. Nice place to stop and grab a cheap yet tasty meal. No complaints, everyone's food was good and fresh. They delivered the food as it was done. Nothing to write home to mom about but it will make my return list on occasion when I go out to Edinburgh to see a movie. read more

There were 3 long curly hairs in my moms wrap horrible service slow an also in my dad fries there was like short curly hair but there was only a long hair curly and short very straight I do not recommend read more

Food was tasty and reasonably priced my food came out quickly. Waitresses were very attentive to all customers

Great little spot if you're looking for a well priced breakfast or lunch (they have a few breakfast items). If it's on the menu, you can pretty much ask for things to be customized a bit. Like I got an egg and cheese sandwich that isn't specifically listed on the menu. If you're in the southern Chesapeake area you should definitely check it out. read more

My husband and I go here all the time but unfortunately they have changed their hot dog brand and it is no where as good as the boars head brand. I still love all the girls there but we won't be back for a while read more

Stopped by this place while waiting for my hair to be cut at the great clips a couple shops down. Typical hot dog style eatery. Service was good, food was fast. About what you can expect as far as a restaurant hot dog experience goes. These are MUCH better than what you get at home but as far as restaurant dogs go, this was A-OK. Good quality, but nothing that really separates them from the other two dozen hot dog eateries in the area. If you are craving a dog, and are in the area I wouldn't have a problem recommending this place. I got my food in less than 5 minutes, and was out the door in 15. In response to another reviewer: They do change their gloves in between orders, I witnessed this myself. read more

Idea is great, but implementation is poor. Overall, it's not a very clean facility and after observing the cook with gloves on I felt a little better, until I watched her playing on her phone and then right back to cooking. An anomaly...no, I saw it happen multiple times. The grub was ok, but it's no better than buying dogs at the grocery. I've seen much worse (BWW), but for the money, I'll go elsewhere. read more

The woman who im assuming is the manager is very rude and has no idea how to speak to customers. Would not recommend going if shes there.

I ordered the #1 lunch special. Portions were super small. Cheeseburger was the size of a child's Happy Meal burger (and burnt), i only got about 6 small onion rings, and a cookie that was about half the size of a normal one. Bottom line, i will still be hungry probably the rest of the day at work, so dont order this if you are hungry....super slowwwww service as well. Probably will not order from this place again. For $9 i could've gotten more somewhere else. So disappointing. read more

My little man and I decided to get some lunch and really wanted some chili cheese hot dogs. Food: I ordered a chili cheese hot dog with cheese tots. My hot dog came with a slice of American cheese and no chili. The tater tots were very yummy! Especially with that mayo sauce on the table. My son had the kids meal hot dog with French fries. Service: I was not very pleased with the service. Our server (young brunette with long hair) never greeted us with a hello the whole time. She never smiled either. She absolutely had no personality whatsoever. I'll come back again, I want to try more items on the menu. I'm just hoping we don't get the same server. read more

Went there earlier on a first date. Devoured two juicy weenies in the restaurant. Barely had room for the third one after we left! French fries mediocre. Staff super nice! read more

I have been looking for a good hot dog place since moving here so I decided to come here, well I was pleasantly surprised by perfectly Frank. It reminds me of a local spot back home that follows the same simple concept. So If you want a good fast bite to eat there is no other place that will give you this level of freshness for such a great price. I had the New York dog with cooked red onions and mustard with chili cheese fries on the side. Definitely stop by and grab a dog from these people you will not be disappointed. read more

Have been here many times before, but probably won't return. Service has been lousy the last few times with waits of over 20 minutes...for hot dogs! The staff needs to stop talking to each other constantly and start waiting on customers! Hustle up on the grill, like you used, and improve food delivery times... read more

Wasn't bad, wasn't great.....I think it would have been much better had our food not been over cooked. My bratwurst was great but they over toasted the bun. The fries were cooked perfectly, and although I usually love chili fries, I wasn't a fan of the chili. I was hoping it would be fresh, and I'm not 100% that it wasn't, but it tasted like processed canned stuff. My fiance's corndog nuggets were so dark they looked like pretzels. I'll try it again the next time I'm in the area because all the other reviews have been good. Maybe I just came in on an off day? read more

Perfectly Frank - Bratwurst with sauerkraut and mustard with chili fries - New American Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Wow...five years since my last review here! The atmosphere is relaxed, staff is nice, still love the fries...etc... So why lose 2 stars? Well, they need to add more beef to their 2oz burgers (yes, they advertise their burgers are 2oz) to justify the price and the atmosphere may be casual, but the staff on cleanliness should not be. I watched one staff member put a drink in her armpit area and carry it to the table with the other drinks. Here is a thought. Put all drinks on the counter, near where the table is located, walk around and grab the drinks from there. It is unsightly to see someone be given a drink from the arm pit. Not very professional either. Then the same staff member dropped one of her post-its, that is where they write the orders, in the trash can, she reached in, grabbed it, didn't wash her hands afterwards and went on to handle/fulfill orders. The other person, the one making the food, wears gloves...which is awesome. However, the problem is that she never takes them off. It amounts to bare hands never being washed. She touches everything with her gloved hands and then handles food. Not sanitary. I have no idea why they have gone down hill on taking simple precautions with food prep, but it is not okay. Will we go back? Probably not. read more

We are fairly regular customers and ended up walking out this past Sunday after waiting 20 minutes for our order. All tables were filled with customers, but they had their orders, we did not. They usually have a young waitstaff, but on Sunday there was a really young server and she had no customer service skills. Had to ask twice where our food was and was told "we're busy". We figured they were too busy to take care of pretty regular paying customers, so we paid for our drinks and went elsewhere. Get it together, Perfectly Frank's, or more customers will le read more
