    I love this restaurant. I eat there all the time whenever I’m in town. My only complaint is the noise level is louder than I prefer. I do prefer quiet dinning so I’m not saying others may find it too noisy. It’s just not my preference.

    Frank Fat’s always delivers! Extraordinary service, amazing food and a warm, welcoming environment that never feels rushed. Great for a special birthday dinner and we always get enough to take home with their enormous portions. The Seafood Pot was perfect and my Immigrant’s Beef, one of my favorites, was excellent. BBQ Pork Fried Rice is a must, of course. A wonderful experience all the way around!

    We arrived a little early for our reservation and they were more than happy to seat us early. James was our waiter and he was AMAZING. So insightful and offered such great advice on what to order. He was very prompt in checking on us throughout our dinner experience and continued to offer his expertise. Ella is very lucky to have James! The food and drinks were great, and it sounds like they have seasonal offerings in both so we will definitely be back.
