This is the restaurant to visit when you want a fancy night out, great drinks, and a trained staff that is friendly. It's great for business dinners, celebrations, or if you're concerned with allergies. There aren't many restaurants we can safely eat at, but this tops them all. It's a Roanoke staple—we love Frankie's.

Frankie's is a must stop if you are in Roanoke. Service is top-notch. The cocktails are excellent. The food is amazing. The scallops are exceptional. They never disappoint.

We have eaten here many times, and I will be honest sometimes over the last few years the service has been really off, but on our last visit, everything was exceptional! Absolutely great service, great signature pineapple martini, great oysters rockefeller, phenomenal filet & onion rings & potatoes au gratin! One of the best restaurants in Roanoke!

On 12/23/24 we ate at Frankie Rowland’s downtown. Had a 730 reservation and arrived at 7pm for drinks. It was an awesome experience from start to finish and the food was phenomenal. The professionalism and culinary knowledge of the staff was unsurpassed. Our main server, Sara, was the bomb. She made it a Fun time and was very interactive with the table!! My compliments to her and all those who support her efforts!! Sara…..Carol still thinks a fish sandwich from McDonalds is seafood :):)

This is the second year we've hosted a company celebration at Frankie Rowland’s in Roanoke, and once again, they exceeded our expectations. The service from the entire staff was impeccable, and the food was nothing short of amazing. Many in our group commented that it was the best steak they’ve ever had! The sides were equally impressive, and the desserts were decadent. A special thank-you to Mary Kathryn, who was instrumental in making our event seamless. From reserving the room to helping us pre-order starters and select a variety of menu options for the evening, she made the entire process effortless. Her attention to detail and willingness to help was greatly appreciated. We can’t wait to celebrate at Frankie Rowland’s again in the future. If you’re looking for a venue with exceptional food, service, and a stress-free planning experience, look no further!

First time experience and it set a very high bar! The service was exceptional. You could tell the team there takes working together seriously. Our drinks were never empty, our table was kept clear of clutter and the food was EXCEPTIONAL!!!! My husband got the tomahawk steak and I got the filet. My filet was juicy and didn't have a single bit of fat on it. My bread pudding was more than delicious. I honestly can't think of a word for it. My cappuccino was so perfect! Overall, a date night to be remembered!!!

Expected to have a decent dinner and it turned out to be a very good one. Since we didn't make reservations, we walked in and sat at the bar. Bartenders were very personable and prompt. All the food came out in just the right timing and were tasty. My steak was seasoned and cooked right. One complaint would be the meat was tendon running through and could not be cut with a knife. Next visit, we'll share the main dish so we can try their desserts.

My Boyfriend and I celebrated valentines here on 2/10 and had such a wonderful experience. Neither of us had been here prior. All of the staff were very kind and attentive. Our server was training someone and both the server and trainee were welcoming and knowledgeable! I got an espresso martini and my boyfriend got the Anti-freeze and both drinks were tasty. He opted for the Ribeye and I got the salmon. The maple bourbon sauce was amazing! Very flavorful. They were sadly out of au gratin potatoes so we got mashed potatos and the Baked Cavatappi & Cheese. Both were great portions and tasted great. We split the molton chocolate cake for dessert and it did not disappoint. The ambience of the restaurant really set the mood and made the night enjoyable. I'm looking forward to going back.

Frakie never fails me. The service was top tier and the food was amazing. Their cocktails were especially tasty. I would recommend anyone to eat there so you can have a reliable baseline for decent steak.

We enjoyed a very nice date night evening here. The servers were knowledgeable about the menu and very sweet. I had the steak my boyfriend has the salmon. Both were very yummy. We will definitely be back

The lobster bisque soup was not good and definitely not worth the high price for the flavor. The porterhouse steak was good and we enjoyed that. The Pineapple drink was good. The biggest disappointment was the side dish of scallops we got 3 small ones for $39! I feel I've been robbed to be honest! For our 18th Anniversary they offered a complimentary dessert the molten chocolate (we got the molten chocolate) or cream brulee cake. It tasted rather old & dried out not fresh like you would expect. We have been here a few times and do so on special occasions. This will be our last time at Frankie Rowland's and we won't recommend it to family or friends anymore.

So disappointed in the food. The porter house steak thay we ordered was just terribly dry and burnt from the outside. So odd for an award winning restuarant to serve their customers such steak. It was flavour less. Barely even salt. Even the butter they served with bread did not taste like butter. As you can see in the pic around the steak is all burnt.

Aspires to be something they are not. Worst Caesar’s Salad I have ever had. Steak was overcooked. Sommelier charged corkage when bringing in a $3000 bottle of wine commemorating the death of a 97 pillar of the community. Even when explained the circumstances, sommelier with no heart refused. It’s not about the minor fee but the unfeeling treatment of a regular on an extraordinary occasion. Will never eat there again.
