Frankie's Uptown - A Neighborhood Bar

After not having eaten much while on the road for a day and a half due to limited options, I was so happy to have such a great meal in a fun atmosphere at Frankie's! I had the cauliflower crust Philly cheese steak pizza and an order of fries! The pizza was fantastic and the fries (not shoe string like a regular other would be), were fried in a dedicated fryer! Service was great and they were very knowledgeable and helpful! No reaction or illness!!

Waiter was super knowledgeable. He actually gave me suggestions, reassurance and substitutions to make me more than happy. They say directly on the menu they have a gluten free fryer and prep area. I’ve been there multiple times and I’ve never been disappointed! GF cauliflower pizza was the best cauliflower pizza I’ve ever had. And I’ve had a lot of them. Shoestring fries were also amazing!

They have GF items marked on their menu as Keto, and it states that they have a dedicated fryer for GF diners. None of this is said on their website and I would not have gone here if it were not for this app.

All salads are marked as Keto, and you can do their burgers with a lettuce wrap. You can ask for fries done in the dedicated fryer. Not many options beyond that.

I had the Ms. Greek salads which was huge and really loaded. Dressing was very tasty. There was enough left over for lunch the next day.

I also got the shoe string fries done in the dedicated fryer and they were good, I just like REALLY crispy fries which is hard to find anywhere. Theis ketchup was very good too.

I informed the server I had celiac and was "allergic" to gluten. He made a note on the order. When a different server brought out my fries he specified, "Here are the gluten free fries," which was really appreciated and put me at ease.

I am a silent celiac so I can't report if there was any cross contamination.

Also a note, it was a Friday night and very busy. Between the packed house and the loud music, it was hard to hear. This might make it hard to have a full conversation about cross contamination protocols.

I will be going back.

They were very busy on a game night (right next to baseball stadium) but my son had cauliflower crust pizza that he loved. They also made him a Cesar salad without croutons. I had a burger “keto style” wrapped in lettuce with fries- dedicated fryer. Delicious and no issues.

This place is the best! They have a separate area in the kitchen and separate fryers. My waitress happened to have celiac too which made it even better. It’s not often that you can sit at a bar and eat fries and wings.
