Nice place. Good cocktails. Food was good. I had the nachos, being a celiac, I had to question the ingredients and the cheese sauce had flour, so I asked them to leave it off. It was very tasty still. There are no gluten-free options per say on the menu. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person R 100–150 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

We arrived at Fancy Frank's on a chilly, rainy day and were greeted with warm smiles from the staff. Our waitress kindly led us to a cozy corner table near the woodfire pizza oven, adding to the comforting atmosphere on this gloomy day. To ward off the cold, we ordered a beer shandy and Fancy Frank's in-house lager. For starters, we indulged in the Mac and cheese balls and jalapeño poppers, both bursting with flavor and freshness. Spotting a burger special on the menu, we couldn't resist. We ordered two burgers: the Beast and the V Twin. These burgers were truly exceptional, featuring fresh ingredients and chargrilled burger patties. The combination of flavors was nothing short of fantastic. If you're on the hunt for a great meal, I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant. Everything is prepared with freshness and a unique touch. It's not every day you come across a place that chargrills both burger patties and steaks. In summary, an outstanding experience that I'd gladly revisit.

Went there for supper without booking, big mistake. They wouldn't assist to find a empty table although there were quite a few empty tables, reserved for certain times. Luckily 2 of the staff noted and offered a table until a certain time. Armando and Zaundro assisted to save the day. They served us to the best of their ability, excellent service and food. Well done, I'll be back. I left the restaurant after supper, some of those reserved tables still empty.

Not sure how to describe the vibe, fancy Victorian bar but laid back seating area with retro paraphernalia scattered throughout. Whatever you end up calling it, it is my kinda vibe. I did initially thought the portions were a bit on the small side but they did make up for it in quality of ingredients and the preparation. I appreciate that the menu is only one page. It shows that they know what they are good at, without trying to be everything for everybody, and so we tried a little bit of everything. The tots were deliciously chewy, the burger fried to perfection, the ribs drenched in delicious basting with the meat falling of the bone. You won’t go wrong spending a lazy Sunday afternoon in the company of Frank. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person R 200–250
So I've been here a few times and it's a mixed bag depending on the shift that is working. If you want a consistently good experience, ask for Rodney, man is a gem and you will guaranteed get excellent service. I really don't recommend this place when it is busy because the service drops and the quality of food drops. To get more to the point about my visits. Each visit will gain or lose a restaurant stars. Current rating is 2 stars down from 4. 14 Feb 2024 - 2 stars I ordered the three steps to heaven burger. So this is a bacon, avo and feta burger. One expects a certain level of salt on your food but you expect the salt from the bacon and feta, not the burger patty. The first order that comes out has a burger patty so salted that it is completely inedible, I speak to the manager who arranges a replacement burger. The second burger comes out and they have put the feta sauce to one side, I tentatively try a side of the burger patty and it is better. I then out in my feta sauce and begin eating. By the time I am a third of the way into my burger, I can once again taste nothing but salt. I again taste each component individually, it's the burger patty that is so salted that when I take a chip and dip that heavily into the bowl that the feta sauce came in, I could use that to cleanse my pallet as that is less salty than my burger patty. Additionally, in the kitchen's rush to get me my burger, they did not let the burger patty rest, so upon biting into the burger, all the juice from the patty soaks into the bun, making the bin a soggy bottom experience. I have never been so disappointed in food my entire life. Additionally, the waiter had tables all across the restaurant due to terrible management of the restaurant floor. So the poor guy through no fault of his own spent the night running from one end of the restaurant to the other, never really having time to check on his patrons or offer good service. Manager's attitude towards the problems is neither here nor there and although he tries to solve the issue, he leaves you feeling that he really couldn't care and just wants the night to end. Overall the night's experience left me salty and bitter but still less salty than that burger patty. Food: 1 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4
The gratuity calculations are wrong and skelm when you go there with any type of special or happy hour. They work out gratuity on the original price of the food/drinks and not the discounted price. So in essence when you have to pay the given gratuity it is 7 - 10% more than the actual 10%. Im just wondering if they actually share that with the waiters or if the owners pockets the money? Management was happy to listen to my complaint but not able/or willing to do anything about it. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person R 200–250 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4
