    Meal was very good and lovely ambiance. Service was slow though. We had told waiter we were going to a play and he said he would keep an eye on the time. But, perhaps he had too many tables to service. When we had finished our meal it was time for us to leave and although our plates had been taken, had to flag someone down so we could pay. We were there almost 2 hours and allowed ample time for the meal.

    Great service, excellent filet & eggs, and the bottomless Mimosas are the best in town! A " must do" in downtown Lexington!

    Waiter was inattentive, I had to ask for bread, never got a steak knife that I asked for.... food was fantastic. We were underdressed, but still spent over 250. I expect better service.

    Love the atmosphere, food is always delicious, waiter wasn’t as attentive as we have had in the past and it was slightly cold where we sat , but we love this place.

    The ambience was charming, the food was excellent, the service was excellent, and John W, our server was awesome. It was our first time visiting Frank and Dino's and we were not disappointed. Incidentally, I just edited the review on 3/25/2025, because I forgot to click on the correct number of stars on the original. So I will say again, it was an amazing, romantic, delicious date night for us!
