We ordered at the window-grilled cheese with ham for me and seafood salad wrap for Jane. We got bottled drinks from the cooler. Our sandwiches were delivered to our table when ready-they were good and served the purpose. The young waitstaff were all very friendly. Plenty of parking in their private lot. Bathrooms are in a separate entrance on the side of the building.

I witnessed their customer interaction after being there for about 20 minutes and ordering, NY sirloin strips, rib eyes, and baby back ribs. NOTICE no mention of any sort of fish order at this point. We did bring home tuna steaks, those of which they sliced to a thickness of my decision. Oh yeah, they did that with the steaks as well.

First and last visit for us! We were really looking forward to a nice dinner, but unfortunately,…read moreboth meals were a huge disappointment. I ordered the shrimp and scallops with linguine. For the price, I was surprised to find only four large shrimp, and the scallops were soft rather than firm. The dish was absolutely drowning in sauce, making it difficult to enjoy. The portion was large enough for two people, but most of it was just pasta swimming in sauce. My husband ordered a chicken and sausage dish that was supposed to be spicy. There wasn't a hint of spice! His portion was ridiculously oversized, easily enough for three or four people. It looked like there were two full chicken breasts plus sausage! We don't mind generous portions, but we'd much rather have quality over quantity. Both dishes were pretty pricey, which made the experience even more disappointing. Sadly, we couldn't finish our meals, and the leftovers ended up in the trash. Definitely a big NO from us. We had high hopes, but we won't be returning

The servers a bartenders were very friendly and accommodating and made sure the food I ordered was safe for me to eat, due to food allergies. I tried the local hockey mom seltzer which was tasty and not too sweet. For my meal I had the maple cider pork chop which was the perfect portion and delicious. The pork was tender and the glaze was the perfect touch. The home made apple sauce was a nice addition and was so fresh. Finally the garlic green beans were a top choice to round out this dinner. If we have time we will go back because apparently they have the best burger in town and it sells out everyday.

Wow, what a transformation from when we last came to Burlington and having breakfast at Penny…read moreCluse, we were pleasantly surprised to find highly recommended Frankie's in the same location! The same large, beautiful windows are there, but the decor is warm, trendy, and modern. Our hostess immediately wished my husband and me happy anniversary and the bartender team Max and Woody were truly outstanding and made our celebration special. They are adept at making cocktails. We tried Blue Bingo and Inside Out. Both were perfectly balanced. The Blue Bingo with fresh blueberry puree, garnished with blueberry and mint was refreshing. The Inside Out was similar to an Old Fashioned. We selected 4 small plates, one large plate, and one side. For small plates, the striped bass collar was meaty and flavored with an herb sauce and punchy blistered cherry tomatoes. The little neck clams came in a broth that was worth sopping up with the grilled sourdough. It was similar to having mussels in a luscious wine butter sauce. I would have eaten like 12 of the clams if they let me but they alas only give you 6. My favorite was grilled Romano beans, slightly crunchy, fresh, and light, with burrata and fried green tomatoes. The breading on the tomatoes was perfectly light and crunchy. The burrata was delicious, and I would have preferred to have it over the barchetta, fresh ravioli like pastas that came with fennel and arugula. The barchetta was missing that creamy element. The served our pork schnitzel as a "splitzel" served cut in half on two plates. Again, it was perfectly crunchy and light. We ordered pomme puree (mashed potatoes) as a side too, creamy and delicious. They had a decent wine and beer selection. We lucked out with our chenin blanc selection, which paired well with everything we had. Eat here! The menu changes every day. We can't wait to come back.

I ordered the Something Fun cocktail, which was fruity, refreshing, and beautifully presented with blue salt speckled around the rim of the glass. For dinner, I had the whole trout in a dill sauce with a side of purple cauliflower. Everything is locally sourced, and while the menu features a few staples, it changes daily. Each menu is date-stamped, which I'm obsessed with--it's a great reminder of how fresh everything is. Vermont generally has a great local food scene, and I really appreciate the thoughtfulness behind the ingredients, presentation, and overall quality. Frankie's is a restaurant I'd highly recommend for groups, family dinners, date nights, or even corporate dinners. I'd love to come back and explore more of their wine selection. The staff is incredibly welcoming, happy to chat, and very knowledgeable about the menu. Expect to spend around $75 per person for a meal, a side or appetizer, and one drink.

After reading Kassidy's review, I brought my family here for my boyfriend's Birthday and I was glad…read moreI did! We were 8 people so we divided ourselves into two groups of four and ordered off the tapas menu. I had made reservations for 8pm, so when we arrived they had a table ready for us outside. Our waiter was also one of the bartenders, so he was not coming around often enough and we called over one of the other waitresses a few times. She was very quick and friendly. We enjoyed some drinks and bread outside, but it was getting a bit cool and the mosquitoes were out, it is also not non-smoking on the terrace and we had a smoker next to us to ruin our appetite, so before we received out tapas I asked to move inside so they gladly prepared a table for us. The inside decor is gorgeous. The tables and chairs are beautiful wood, although the chairs are very upright and not very comfortable. The lamb was a favorite among my fam, cooked in a delicious sauce and really tender. The potatos in tomatoe sauce were too spicy for my liking, but everyone else enjoyed them. We ordered the garlic shrimp which had a good taste. They were the small shrimp, if you're wondering. The eggplant was delicious. The flavors combined perfectly it almost melted in my mouth. I'm not a huge fan of mussels but I tried one anyway, and the taste was good. My aunt and uncle love mussels and they really enjoyed them. The fig chicken is a must for the less daring in terms of trying different foods. The fig complemented the chicken wonderfully. The sauted vegetables are also pretty basic, but delicious. Smoked salmon salad was basically like a Cesar salad with capers and smoked salmon. I don't like capers so I pushed those to the side and enjoyed the rest. Like all the other tapas, the flavors mixed well and the salad was delicious. The 9th and final tapas we ordered between the four of us was the stuffed peppers. This is not something I'd normally order because I assumed it would be spicy, but my uncle wanted to try it so we ordered it, and it ended up being one of my favorites. It was not spicy at all. It was a red pepper stuffed with a tuna salad. Yum. The 9 dishes were plenty to feed the 8 of us. The waiter said to have a full meal, usually two tapas per person is enough. Since it was my boyfriend's birthday celebration, we had him wearing a crown and a Hawaii necklace. At the beginning he asked the waitress if he gets anything for his birthday, then at the end before we left, she brought out a slice of cheesecake with a candle in it which was nice of her. I normally don't like cheesecake, but this one was delicious. Very light and fluffy with a delicious raspberry sauce. I will definitely go back here in the future. A great little Spanish restaurant in the townships which I will be recommending :)

Going go to start by saying the food was great. However, it was the service that lacked - meaning…read morenot enough staff to clients. We ordered food and the wait time was ridiculous. Our waitress asked if we wanted everything served at once or in 2 servings. Given we had ordered 6-7 tapas platters and the small table space, we figured 2 servings was a better idea. The first serving compromised of garlic butter sautéed mushrooms (7/10), maple syrup doused grilled eggplant with goat cheese (8/10) and a Spanish charcuterie & cheese plate with olives (6/10). The food was in all great, we finished the first serving pretty fast. We figured the second serving would come more quickly but it never did! By then we were already full and tired. It could've been that the kitchen had already prepared the food and the waitress had too many customers to serve. I called her over and told her I would only pay for the dishes we ate because the food was taking too long to come out. She got defensive and said the food was on its way and ready. I insisted no. After which, I asked if we could pay right away as we had to head out . Another 15-20 min wait as she served others . My impression would be if I had 2 customers that were upset and ready to leave, I would tell the other table " I'll be right back shortly , I just have to close this table off". She had no sense of time! It's too bad that the service can't match their quality of food and atmosphere. Hire more staff because clearly there is a demand for food but a lack of service will bring the hype down.

We entered in and got greeted by Big T and was offered a pitcher of Sweet Tea or Lemonade -on the house for eat-in service. That was a great pitcher of sweet tea. Not overly sweet. Just right. We each ordered a chicken meal. Two people ordered the barbecue and one ordered fried chicken and another was sticky chicken. Each dinner comes with 2 sides. Macaroni and cheese, collard greens, beans, rice and yams were ordered. Everything was made fresh and hit off the stove. It was really a feeling of visiting family and eating a Sunday family dinner. Big T was so warm and welcoming. The plate was overflowing and I took home a lot for leftovers -enough to serve another 2 meals. Each plate had 3 pieces of chicken. The sticky chicken is a sweet and soy-like Teriyaki style. If you like sweet and salty, this is the one. The chicken was piping hot and crispy. The collard greens were tender but not mushy. The beans were not overly sweet and had very nice spice notes to it. I loved the experience and the place was so homey. I will return for sure. Not to be missed experience.
