Love the remodel and am sure the food is a huge improvement. <br />For those idiots that liked the old food, seems they have never had anything but frozen microwaved meals, probably never had home cooked food, ever.

If 5 minutes could not be allocated to fix this, I wonder what else is not being done. We entered to find an empty house except for a man at the bar. We were greeted promptly and seated. A very friendly waitress did not know the soup of the day....trip to find out....she did not know what beer was on tap....trip to find out....2 more trips to find out which beers were included with happy hour and a beer ordered....oops that beer is full price she says after putting our order in for onion rings. Onion rings were good but not great and we decided not to order anything else because as we heard when others came in, ordering could be a real chore. One of the owners was nearby as we left and he remained silent but he was not friendly looking for sure. I had greater expectations for folks that have been enlightened.chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-68533568653414174632013-12-06T18:05:05.642-05:002013-12-06T18:05:05.642-05:00Just went on Frankie's site to see reviews and...Just went on Frankie's site to see reviews and most were great ( new reviews from this yr) so seems like bad reviews are people with no knowledge or no taste in good food) good going Frankie's !!

I'm so sorry to say that I know some American like can food and microwave food. Maybe that's why they have problem with Franky now. There is nothing better than home made. It's good for your health.

I am disappointed at all the negative reviews! Remember the saying, "Rome wasn't built in day?" When turning a restaurant around, you have to allow time for the changes to set in. I hope with all the publicity Frankie is enjoying, they will use the profits they make to further develop their restaurant, and not depend on what the show has done for their business to bring them continued success.hanger_minionhttp://profile.yahoo.com/WDXZ3SBFYRX5TRKACL4AEZSSOMnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8808060991534955915.post-37131559278304850202012-12-21T04:13:55.789-05:002012-12-21T04:13:55.789-05:00I like the tagine, slowly roasted goodness.

I had never been to Three Rivers before, but I was really impressed with Frankies. Our service was good and the food was really good. They mark the menu items from Chef Irvine, and I tried his meatball sub. The flavor was great and the bread was really fresh.

I feel that the few customers that they had are worth losing , considering that the nasty food they were serving much putting them out of business . after all if the people loved the food so much and the atmosphere so much before the changes why was the restaurant going out of business and reaching out to Robert for help? these people really need to get a grip !!kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09254395164527922461noreply@blogger.com
