“ This small but efficient place is a gem. Great food. Service was quick, and the cook (1 guy) was slinging all the orders by himself. The food was delicious. If you need a quick bite stop by. I will be recommending this place to friends and family. ”
“ I really enjoyed my visit to Franks restaurant here in central Tucson, AZ. As the sign says this is not for you if you want a fine dining experience. But if you want good food with an authentic Tucson flare, friendly staff, and reasonable prices. Then Franks is for you. My waiter, Andrew, was friendly, fast and attentive. I had the Green chili and cheese omelette with chorizo and locally made tortillas. I also tried out the fresh made biscuit. All was wonderful. I’ll eat there again. ”
“ What a dive like out of a movie but really great. Staff and food great! Sat at the bar. Had a ham club sandwich. Love how they used ham steak for the ham and not a bunch of the thin sliced stuff. Reasonably priced too. ”
“ Stopped by Frank’s Restaurant in Tucson for breakfast while visiting for the weekend—and I’m so glad we did! The food was delicious, the OJ tasted fresh-squeezed, and my whole bill was only 21. Great service, amazing value, and tasty comfort food—definitely worth a stop if you’re in town! ”
“ Being born and raised in the South, breakfast spots are a must. More 'hole in-the wall' vibe, the better. I saw a video posted about this place and knew I had to pay a visit. Went on a Friday morning, it was packed but we got seated fairly quickly. Service was fast and kind. Our food came out hot and in a timely manner. I was in shock over the portion sizes, as our waiter just kept the plates coming. We had no idea how much we had ordered! Everything was delicious. We will be back! ”
“ Just left here and my husband and I can’t stop raving about it Small, comfy, and amazing service! All the staff were so sweet and helpful. The food came out super quick and it was absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered had great flavor. Best breakfast we’ve had in such a long time and the staff topped off our great experience. They even helped us pack our leftovers. I can’t reiterate enough how much a good staff just makes the establishment the best it can be, and this staff does just that. We already have plans to be here every morning the rest of our vacation! ”
“ Yes, looks can truly be deceiving. Frank's seriously lacks any snazzy curb appeal. If you're coming for the aesthetic value you're certainly not at the right place. Architecturally Frank's is beyond unimpressive. If however on the other hand you're searching for darn good food, you've just hit the motherload. I was immediately welcomed upon entry and advised to sit wherever I could find some room. And while crowded, the small dining room wasn't cramped to the point where there wasn't an open spot for me to sit and call my own. I've been meaning to get to this place for several years and just never made it until today. I normally would drive by and see that the parking lot is completely full, so I would skip it and go somewhere else. Today was no exception the parking lot was full but again there was room for one more. Frank's offers an impressively large menu selection with abundant variety. I elected to partake in the chicken fried steak, over easy eggs, hash browns along with the sourdough toast. The lag time from ordering to table presentation was minimal at best. My food arrived at what I considered to be record setting warp speed. My selection arrived hot, fresh and delicious, and visually appealing. I simply could not clear my plate as portion control at Frank's apparently doesn't exist. I would highly recommend visiting this Tucson original. Now I'm intrigued and I will have to come back for dinner next. Overall highly pleased with all aspects of my visit. ”
“ Ate here twice while seeing my dad. Food was fantastic, staff was friendly & you can tell that they love there job and have been there (9yrs-40yrs). If you don't mind cleaning your table you will be seated faster also & get to chose your spot... if the table is open. They are hopping 3 ”
