"Price: $$ With its prime location among Downtown’s buzziest bars, Frank’s is synonymous with late-night eats. The decades-old pizza parlor, situated at one corner of Market Square Park, prepares its own dough and sauce in-house daily and offers a menu of mouthwatering pies up to 18 inches. Must-try dish: Plain cheese and pepperoni slices entice from behind glass cases, but specialty pizzas, like the Cajun-inspired boudin and bacon pizza, or the Scrumptious Supreme, loaded with the works, are also available." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Maybe you went out after the game and need some ‘za before sliding into a rideshare you should have called a couple hours ago. Or maybe you just want pizza—who doesn’t? Hit up Frank’s Pizza in Downtown for a couple slices to stay, or on a folded paper plate to go. And if your whole team needs some greasy carbs, get an entire New York-sized pie late into the night. How to get there: Walk (16 minutes) or take a pedicab (seven minutes)" - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
"For a casual, late-night bite, visit Frank’s Pizza, where New York-style pies are a guarantee. Nestled near Market Square Park, this longtime favorite serves up giant, foldable slices perfect for satisfying cravings. Dough and sauce are prepared fresh daily, ensuring every bite is flavorful and authentic. Specialty options, such as the Cajun-inspired boudin and bacon pizza and the Chicken Fiesta pizza with fajita meat and jalapeños, offer fun ways to switch up the average slice. But classic pepperoni and plain cheese slices remain perennial crowd-pleasers." - Marcy de Luna
"Frank’s Pizza in Downtown serves up a reliable, consistent, classic New York slice. Somehow, pepperoni and mushroom taste better in a place like this, which is to say, a tiny counter-service restaurant that’s open for lunch and until 3am on weekends—there’s always a throng of weekend bargoers lining up for a sobering slice after last call. Go classic, or opt for something a little different, like the house special boudin and bacon. Exactly what you need after a long night or for a quick lunch on the go. Just make sure to keep the line moving." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
"Open Until: 10pm Mon-Wed, 1am Thurs, 3am Fri-Sat You might think you’re just stumbling into another bar when you visit Frank’s Pizza after the Downtown bars close. Pretty much everyone who just got kicked out after last call made their way to Frank’s for a sobering slice of New York-style pizza. Frank’s is reliable. Just as the sun rises each morning, Frank’s bakes off extra pizzas at night—especially on the weekends. Grab a couple of slices, served on paper plates in case you want or need to eat outside while waiting for a rideshare, or a whole large pizza if there’s a crew of mouths to feed. Frank’s doesn’t ask why you need six slices of pepperoni at 2am on a Saturday, but they do want to keep the line moving." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
