to wonder why the hell someone would CHOOSE to go out for dinner at Frankie & Bennies

[GetOrfMoiLand]

It has got to be the worst restaurant on earth.

And it's not even cheap.

Vile food, and every 20 mins the lights dim and 'happy birthday' gets sung out the loudspeakers.

It's up there with Harvester and Bella Pasta in my opinion.

F&B's can be good fun.

A couple of years ago I stopped in for a quick lunch. At another table a couple (middle aged) were having their wedding celebration. Clothing on the couple could only be described as "through a hedge backwards", bridesmaids were obesity and bare midriffs plus tatoos, relatives and friends varied dress. It was topped off by helium balloons behind the happy couple identifying bride and groom for those not in the know.

Speeches were hilarious as no-one was able to speak without at least one supporting hand on the table and even this was not enough for the groom as he took one fall.

The only thing that spoiled the occasion whilst I was there (I stayed an extra 30 mins to see the fun, as did several others) was that no fight broke out.

I have stopped in several times since in the hope that there might be more entertainment but have been out of luck.

Yes the food leaves much to be desired.
