About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
  • Good for groups
Like so many Melbournians, we are the daughters of Italian and Greek immigrant parents, coming from a family of “contadini” (farmers) who lived and worked off the land. During our childhood there was never a great deal of money, but being constantly surrounded by family, love and LOTS of food made up for that. The inspiration for Ms Frankie comes from the Italian side of our partnership, heavily based on Melinda’s experiences and heritage. The parents of Ms. Frankie co-founder Melinda migrated from Calabria in the South of Italy in 1976. In search of a new life, Mamma Vincenza still brought with her a lifetime of family recipes and traditions. To this day, she continues to bake her own bread in the garage of the family home, a very #WogLife tradition. Cooking only takes place in the garage – keeping the kitchen nice and clean for any “visiti” (visitors).

    Really poor service absolute tasteless Marinara didn’t get what we ordered. Asked three times for more drinks. Was a shame for the single poor guy trying to do everything he was a lovely fella. The marinara was square chunks of fish and calamari strips. $135 one dink each awful food never again. Disappointing to say the least.
