Frankie's Italian Chilliwack - Chilliwack, British Columbia

SWA

I felt like some Italian food and wanted to go try a new restaurant. When I arrived at Frankie’s Italian restaurant in Chilliwack, it was moderately busy, yet I was still able to get a table right away.

I ordered the Shrimp Tagliatelle for my entrée. It came with Focaccia bread and balsamic vinegar for dipping. The bread was very good, especially paired with balsamic vinegar. The entrée, however, I did not enjoy very much. The white cream sauce lacked flavour and consistency, the pasta tasted like rubber and the shrimp (prawns) are overall average at best.

The service was very good, and the establishment seemed clean and nice-looking in its countenance.

I do not know if it was what I ordered or something else that was wrong. However, it will be a while before I try Frankie’s Italian again.

Had a dinner/date night here last week. The service was solid and food was tasty. We just beat the rush and were able to get a table right away. My husband really enjoyed his pizza. Would return no problem.

Great food and drink, lots of gluten-free options.
It sounds cheesy to say, but I'd give more stars if I could. Had a small grad celebration for our oldest child last night and the server, Jewel, was absolutely amazing. Seriously the best server I've ever had
We were in the side room so it was quieter, perfect for my grandma who joined us.

This restaurant has a great atmosphere. It was an excellent experience for a date night, and the food was off the charts. The best steak I have had in years from a restaurant. Was so worth it just having a chef that knows how to cook a steak perfectly! I will recommend this place to anyone!

We spent three weeks in Italy and have been looking everywhere for a good carbonara ever since. This is the closest we’ve had to authentic yet! It was amazing! The service was lovely and the prices were very reasonable. We will definitely be back!

We had an excellent time at Frankie’s last night for our 27th wedding anniversary. We were delighted with our server Kelly, as she was energetic and fun.
We ordered the risotto balls and calamari to start, as well as 2 Aperol spritz. Then the carpaccio and a Caesar salad. Our mains were the shrimp tagliatelle and the Alfredo tagliatelle with chicken, as well as another Aperol spritz and a lemoncello gin spritz.
Desert was the flourless chocolate tort with vanilla ice cream.
All in all an amazing night for our first visit to Frankie’s. We will definitely be back as soon as many other things looked so good.

One of Chilliwack's few classy dining places and its not overpriced. The food served is of great quality, the wait staff professional, and the drink list covers all likes. There is a lounge, and main dining area which has large booths for family dinners. I enjoyed my carbonera, and sangria. Bon appétit!

Ordered online. Food was ready on time and hostesses were polite. However the food is sub-par.

$20 Calamari was soggy like it was cooked at a lower temp than needed, I had to put it in my air fryer. Only 10 pieces.

$10 Kids Alfredo was fine, plain noodles and garlic sauce.

$22 Pepperoni pizza was overly greasy.

$24 Steak and beet salad- steak was medium rare at most but decent size

$35 BC salmon entree didn't come as listed in online menu, I thought I was missing the 2nd half of my meal. Turns out it now comes with a pile of shredded hash browns that are only partially done, topped with sliced tomatoes and some form of unidentified julienned white stuff. It was so soggy with grease that it turned to a pile of mush. Salmon is dry and overcooked.

I spoke with the manager, and she issued me a $40 certificate as reparations which was appreciated.

We were originally given a gift card to go here but have always thought it was overpriced for basic food, and this order supported my impression.

I still have $100 to spend here.... Going to be safe and use it on drinks
