Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 5

Check sides. Ask whether your chosen burger includes fries and corn before ordering; one diner had to buy fries separately.

Check charges. Review the bill carefully and ask about service charges, which diners reported as separate additions to the advertised prices.

The Bottom Line

Frank Meat & Taps is built around substantial meat dishes in a lively, hip-hop-influenced setting. Beef ribs, lamb chops, steaks and beef tartare are the main reasons to look at the menu; the ribs range from fall-apart versions with a sweet, smoky glaze to Japanese-style oversized beef ribs mentioned by diners. Cocktails and a broad beer selection add appeal for an evening meal or drinks with friends.

The atmosphere is one of the stronger parts of the experience. Reviews describe stylish interiors, pleasant music and enjoyable outdoor or upstairs seating, while families have found a children's menu, colouring books and a kids’ entertainment area. The music can be loud, however, and one diner found the interior too dark.

Service is usually described as warm, fast and attentive, but the consistency matters. A group of eight reported waiting more than an hour and a half for ribs, while another table waited 30 minutes for desserts. Portions and value are also debated: some diners call them generous, while others found the short ribs, shawarma and sides surprisingly small.

Check burger sides and the final bill carefully; reviews mention separate fries charges and service fees, including one reported total increase of 17%.
