Frankie's Italian Restaurant
Reviews
A few years ago, Dover Downs had decent restaurants and Frankie's was one of them. We were there in the summer and it was atrocious. Waitress admitted it was her first night, but did not know what a Dewar's and water was! My daughter had to explain same as rum and coke but water and scotch....then she brought a glass of water in a tall glass with half glass of scotch on side and no ice! Dinners were terrible. Chicken piccata tasted like chicken and dumplings with a slice of lemon and capers. Hands down, the worst food I have ever eaten. Service was terrible. The Maitre d was the man who usually hosts at Michele's upstairs; he was very busy handling complaints that night. Table next to us complained of undercooked chicken. That whole track has gone to the dogs. Restaurants are bad, class of horses is down also. It needs to be "reinvented" before it goes down the tubes.
Very Nice dinning experience. Always pleasant waitresses, manager checks on folks, great food and very reasonable price. All our friends love it there also
First, let me say that the rating system should include quarter stars. I went to my first boxing match at the casino last night. It was great. It was late and me and my wife had not eaten. We decided to check out Frankie's. The food was absolutely awful. The calamari contained little to no seasoning. We ordered this dish called, "Pollo Limone." The chicken was bland and we could not taste any lemon. The waiter, "Daniel", never asked us how the food was nor did he check on our beverages for refills. We had to ask him for refills. Finally, I said to him, "You know, you never asked us how the food was." The waiter said, "Well, you were eating it, so I assumed it was alright." I laughingly responded, "No, the food is actually quite nasty and bland. We are only eating it because it's late and we are really hungry. Do you eat lunch here?" The waiter said he doesn't eat at the restaurant and agrees that the food is bland. Avoid, this place when you are in town. Italians across America should come together and protest the restaurant's insistence in being identified as an Italian restaurant.
Crappy place to eat, service is the worst. They need much improvement!
Terrible. We went there with a party of 6, and all of the plates we received were dirty with visible grease marks all over. We asked the waitress to change them, and the new plates were still dirty and greasy. The waitress left immediately after taking our orders, and never showed up again. We asked her to refill our drinks and she never returned. The food tasted like they were fresh out of a can. During dinner, the microphone system broke multiple times and screamed loud music in the room. No one bothered to fix it. This was by far one of the worst places I have ever been to.
