FRANKIE'S Fabulous Italiano

We had a wonderful evening here! The pizza was delicious, but the real standout was the fresh cheese—any place that takes the time to grate fresh Pecorino Romano, Locatelli, or Parmesan right onto the pie is a winner in my book. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her tagliatelle bolognese, too. We were lucky enough to be seated right next to the fireplace, which was the perfect cozy touch for a cold winter night. The service was lovely and attentive throughout. We’ll definitely be back!

A wonderful spot for authentic Italian cuisine, featuring cherished family recipes passed down from the owner’s Nonna. The dishes are delicious, the service is outstanding, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting.

The service was friendly and attentive. Overall, it’s a great place for a satisfying Italian meal. The new drink (Grinch Margarita) is delicious.Thank to the bartender

I can't believe we only just found this place. This is the Italian I grew up on that is hard to find in the Hamptons. We had the chicken parm, meatballs, Ceasar salad and a margarita pizza. All very well done -- the red sauce just works. Lina was great and very attentive throughout the night. Only suggestion would be to add a kid menu, particularly during the offseason to make more family friendly. Highly recommend!

Every dish we tried here—and we tried most of them—was outstanding. The wild-caught tuna was incredibly fresh, perfect both in the tuna tartare and as a main course. The pastas were perfectly cooked, and the pizzas were classic New York style—better than anywhere else in the Hamptons. This place easily ranks among the best Italian restaurants in the area, and I’ve tried them all. I’ve even been to Tutto Il Giorno and at Arthur’s, and frankly, I left unimpressed—until I came here. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the drinks are spot-on, the service was flawless, and the food feels like a true Italian Sunday dinner at home. I strongly recommend coming here for a family dinner—you absolutely can’t go wrong.

This is our second time visiting in the last month or so and wow, I just can’t be more delighted to have Little Charli’s around the area. It’s a reprieve from the atmosphere at most east end restaurants without suffering food quality. The chicken parm is unbelievable. Seriously. It’s as good as any chicken parm on the planet in my opinion. The pizza is great too… the dough is incredible. Unique. Light. Cooked to perfection. If I had to change anything? My wife would like some different wine options. Other than that, we will be back many times over the course of this summer. Keep up the good stuff, Lil Charli team!

We had an outstanding meal here last night and can't wait to go back. Our waitress was excellent from the moment we stepped in the front door until we left. We got the fried zucchini chips, the wood fired quattro formaggi pizza, and the ricotta gnocchi...everything was incredibly flavorful and not too filling. Will 100% be recommending Frankie's to the local community, hope they're here to stay!!

Owner requested additional details for my review, happy to help. Overall nice people work there, service was kind and moderately attentive as we waited a while for service between courses and the restaurant only had 3 active tables. The restaurant atmosphere rating is based on the restaurant's condition....it is old, dark, seating is uncomfortable....room needs a coat of paint and an upgrade.....the food is overly breaded and the actual food is buried....you only taste the breading, not the zucchini or veal cutlet below it. Food was mainly breading and my chicken parm was burnt on the bottom. Meanwhile my half order of pasta was less than room temperature when served. Clearly there was a mistake in timing in the kitchen even though they were not very busy. Pardon my honest assessment but the staff seemed to try. I am also very picky and critical of good food. The effort was clearly there, but fell short imo. Hope this helps and good luck in the future.
