    Been meaning to go to Frank’s for several years and finally had the opportunity. Given it’s a steakhouse that’s been around for 85 years, they must do some things right and we found that to be the case. All meals include rolls and two side sides in addition to your entrée. We had the house special sizzler, which is a 15 ounce New York strip cooked on a sizzling platter as well as a filet mignon.. for sides we had the red bliss mashed potatoes, french fries a salad and cup of chowder. Both steaks were cooked to perfection and were flavorful and well trimmed. I especially liked how crispy the exterior the steak was. French fries fries, and mashed potatoes were excellent although the portion size of the french fries was a bit small. The clam chowder was good but did not have a strong clam chowder taste to it. It was thick and full of potatoes and could’ve benefited by a few more clams and a little bit more liquid.. Our server was friendly and efficient and overall we had a great meal. I would very much expect to come back…Franks delivered a great meal at a more than fair price.
