Visited the beautiful bar with my husband for a few drinks and the cocktails were expertly crafted by Tony. He's so knowledgeable and manages an amazingly stocked bar - we were pleasantly surprised to see a bottle of La Vieille Prune there, since it comes from a very small town in France! Highly recommend!
Good food. Very limited menu. On the pricey side!! I ordered the filet mignon and was expecting to see at least some veggies and potatoes with it. So I’m still trying to get over the fact that the dish came with just the meat with some sauces… that’s it! Not even onions. On the brightest side, the filet mignon was cooked to perfection, just as ordered: medium rare!
Franks Wine Bar is SO lovely, I recently attended a wedding reception here and the whole experience was so incredible!! The whole team took amazing care of our group for the event. Each staff member was so attentive + kind - special s/o to Will & Noah (I hope I'm recalling their names correctly) for doing a great job behind the bar!! :-) The food was amazing (the branzino alone was unreal), and the atmosphere was SO beautiful. I highly recommend this spot if you're contemplating hosting an event or gathering here - but, I also recommend this place if you're just looking for a nice spot in Brooklyn to dine!!
Good food, but nothing special. The pizza wasn't great, the crust was too bready and hard. The portions are shareable (i.e. on the smaller side).
The place gets really loud before it's full. I felt the waiter was rushing us out while there were plenty of tables and we hadn't even spent a full hour there yet.

Great service, great food, great atmosphere! On their menu is pizza from F&F’s next door, and it was excellent. We got the spicy sausage, which is a sauce on top pie. Excellent chewy crust with a perfect snap to it. Good stuff!
Was in search of homemade pasta on a rainy day and was not disappointed with visiting this establishment. The interior was interesting, service top-notch, atmosphere laid back, but most fortunately - found the meal desired.
The description of this paragraph is note to self. The tagliatelle was delicate, reminded me of tofu sheet texture; whereas the rigatoni was chewier. Boar ragu was meaty. The rigatoni flavor was light, perhaps had a hint of lemon, that reminded me of summer sunshine. Suffice to say, both were satisfying on a cold, rainy day.

Franks is a very upscale yet relaxed wine bar with a focus on Italian wines. Their cocktail list looks great but I haven’t tried any either. One of the few places that has actual Champagne by the glass. The place is on the corner and has a great outside and inside. Great date spot or dinner & wine spot.
Delicious cocktails, wine, little bites to eat and the small to medium pasta meal. Also really great deserts. Nice atmosphere and booths with a large roomy bar. Very clean, good service, a great little wine bar. The Burrata with caviar was my fave.
