Customer Reviews
Great tasting food and bread with the dip they provide! I got the shrimp paste with mushroom and stuffed mushrooms as a appetizer. The food was delicious beyond words! Other then that the place was empty which isn't bad no wait to get a table we just had to wait for someone to notice us waiting to be seated. That a side its a must try Italian restaurant, you won't be disappointed!
Delicious Food We had the spinach artichoke dip for an appetizer which had plenty of sauce for dipping. Ce out bubbling hot. Husband had tossed salad with Caesar dressing (tastes homemade and delicious) and the side meatballs which were moist with lots of sauce. I had the sampler with lasagna, manicotti and ravioli. Hot and flavorful. The knot rolls and dipping oil was really good also. Not a lot of garlic in any of it which is good. I would definitely go there again. Place was clean and the waitress was very friendly.
This is a culmination of our last few experiences as we came back to give them a fair second chance. To begin with, we've been fans of this establishment when they first opened. In the beginning the food, service, and atmosphere was top notch. Recently my wife and I stopped in like we often do. I ordered a Franks salad and she got the tortellini alla panna. Her dish was satisfactory. I tried to put the oil/ vinegar dressing on my salad, and the vinegar was having issues coming out of the dispenser. I opened it up and a black sludge came out with the nozzle. They replaced the vinegar and I finished my meal. We tried them again tonight, hoping to give them a second chance. The wife got the soup and Caesar salad and I got the Franks salad again. The vinegar was solidified in the bottle an
We met at Frank’s place for a family Christmas get together. All the food was excellent. The service was great and they have a separate Room for parties in meetings. The 2 1/2 hours we were there all went well. The food was great. The place was clean. I’ve been going to Frank’s place when it was north of the interstate and now south of the interstate for several years. Part of my family lives in Oklahoma City. Part of my family lives in Conway and it’s the nice halfway spot.
The atmosphere and service were great, but the food lacked flavor and substance. The only good thing was the bread and dipping oil. My husband's chicken fettuccine Alfredo had chicken that was crunchy and overcooked and not even blended in with the meal. The Alfredo sauce was watered down and flavorless. We should have known when we went in and there was no one else seated in the entire restaurant.
