   Excellent service, the appetizers and dishes were delicious, nicely prepared and tasteful. I found their wine list to be pricey but it is Manhattan. Didn’t have a problem booking a table for 3! Will go back!

   Had a nice family dinner with my 3 children and spouses; all in all it was a great evening; drinks were very good, enjoyed the smooz moov very much ;-) As for dinner, we tried several appetizers, all excellent and we all tried a different dish so we could taste. No complaints from anyone. The meatballs, as everyone mentions, were indeed delicious as was the gnocchi. We also had the pasta with linguini, cavatelli with sausage, eggplant and the bolognese, all were delicious. Nice wine list too. Service was very good, some noted noise level was loud, I did not notice that; although I did sometimes have a hard time hearing our waitstaff, I think more because of the high ceilings than anything else. Would def recommend.

   As always, the food is sublime. Tonight we celebrated a friends-birthday who loves the meatballs and the Montepulciano! I was enthralled with the polenta/ braccoli rabe. Magnifico, Thanks for the birthday ‘huge’ slice of ricotta cheese cake...the candle a perfect touch. Shame on me for not hearing the name of our most pleasurable lady waitress...sincere, warm and a very generous lively personality. Kudos to all for a perfect birthday night celebration with Sam, our sweet friend.

   Inside is usually too loud for us, must be the acoustics in there. We love sitting outside thought it's always delicious and love the sidewalk seating when available.

    Truly delicious food, especially fish dishes. Good cocktails. Professional service. Why not five stars all around? NOISE level. We love a busy restaurant with a pleasant buzz, but this night was more like buzz saw than buzz. Pick a time when it’s less busy, order fish and you’ll be happy.

    Made reservation with notes about birthday celebration and included names of the 2 guests with birthdays- had to ask for a dessert with a birthday candle at the end of our meal because they never looked at the reservation apparently. Service was just okay- they were very attentive when it came to filling up our water bottles that are previous wine bottles - but not our cocktails and when ordering- you need to give your full order upfront because that is what the chef wants - which is not preferred as we wanted to have time between apps, salad and dinner., was told no. And then everything came within 15 minutes of each other. The restaurant ambiance is great. It wasn’t very busy but our waitress made us feel like it was a packed house the way she was abrupt in taking our order and answering our questions. They have meatballs and they have spaghetti but when you ask for spaghetti and meatballs which my son wanted they said they did not have it until I pointed it out on the menu and then they agreed to provide spaghetti with sauce and meatballs in a separate dish on the side almost reluctantly.

    The food was good. My daughter and I had the gnocchi which were excellent. My brother and my son-in-law had the meatballs and very much enjoyed them. My wife had branzino which was excellent. And my mother had the eggplant about which she wasn’t crazy but she’s 97 years old and tends to be a bit hypercritical, especially about my wife’s cooking. (My wife is an excellent cook.) The waitress was not very responsive. When she was asked about the meatballs, her response was, “they’re meatballs.” Another one of her responses was, “Look at the menu.” My son-in-law thought she reminded him of a server in a Communist kibbutz. She probably is studying for her PhD in astrophysics or something.

    Our service was barely adequate and the noise level in the restaurant was ridiculous. We could barely have a conversation at our table over the din of the restaurant. I was hoping that Frankies could be a reliable go-to in the neighborhood, but I doubt that's going to happen now.

    I really love Frankies. Frequented the Brooklyn location for many years, and was delighted when I realized the Manhattan one offered food as consistently fantastic. The service is also dedicated, with intelligent staff and easy choices for wine & cocktails. The one drawback to the Manhattan location is, in my humble opinion, the set-up of the space. The low ceilings make any noise echo like a megaphone, so if you have the misfortune like I did to end up next to a table where a wedding party was seated, you won't be able to hear a word from the people sitting across the table from you. You can nod along happily with a forkful of cavatelli (amazing, by the way) but don't plan on doing too much chatting.

    We had to request to sit outside because the noise level inside gave me a huge headache. Way too echoey and loud. They did manage to accommodate us and seat us outside, which was a really lovely space. Food was good but not especially memorable. I would only return if it’s a nice night for sitting outside.

    The ambience and service were good. BUT, the proportions were insanely small. Paid $18 for a tomato salad that was made of maybe one tomato (not exaggerating). And paid $30 for three small scallops and some mushrooms. Don't go here, unless they increase their proportions.

    FOR BRUNCH ONLY: It was Easter Sunday so I was surprised that the restaurant was more quiet than crowded at 1pm when our party of 6 walked in. I made the reservation early enough before Easter and requested outside seating so we can bring our dog along (this was a very common place to see dogs hanging with their families during weekend brunch before, which is why I selected it!) We had originally requested with OpenTable for outside seating so our dog could just hang under or around the table. The morning the day before our reservation, I was called and told that neither of my requests were possible., NO way- we aren’t doing dogs on the patio anymore plus NO parties of 6 fit outside on the patio, That’s not even possible!” (Though upon arrival, there were many ways to accommodate the request.). So that was the biggest disappointment-they waited until the day before Easter Sunday to tell me this news- making it impossible to get a different outdoor seating table elsewhere that allows a dog or could even take a new table at all in that matter! Oh well- we stayed, dog-in-car, us indoors,anyway. Service was ok, took awhile for all 6 drinks to show up on time or ever in sync. Beer was so warm the first one was sent back when it was ordered at the bar.. Good food, just so deathly basic- nothing I couldn’t have done at home on my own. No instagram pics or stories were taken. The gnocchi needs way more sauce and less cheese. The best thing on the menu is the Kale Salad, don’t miss it. Otherwise this place is better for dinner.

    This is the third or fourth time we've been here. Incredible dinner, incredible ambiance. Every time we go, the menu is slightly different based on the season, but there has always been amazing options. We always get a starter, two entrees and a side to share so we can fully experience the menu. Nothing short of great on all fronts. Definitely, recommend.

    Love this place! Menu changes regularly, wine list is good and moderately priced but the service is the best part of this restaurant. The hostess helped accommodate our reservation when it changed from 2 people to 4 and couldn't have been nicer about it. And the waitress was so knowledgeable about the menu. Definitely recommend eating here!

    We go to Frankie's 570 about once a year for its authentic food, relaxed and cozy atmosphere, and professional, friendly service. The entire experience is always a happy one, and the menu is well worth exploring for its seasonal dishes and old favorites like the meatballs.
