First seeing the restaurant from the outside, it seems like nothing extraordinary, but once you step in you're hit with nothing but great smells & smiles on everyone in the restaurant. I had ordered ahead via Toast, grabbing a cheesesteak on a seeded roll with extra meat, onions and a light spread of mayo--assuming the seeded roll would be very crusty & rigid and need the spread to moisten it a bit. I was wrong! The roll housing the fillings was perfectly soft and able to contain all of the meat juices and cheese throughout the sandwich. I got a 9" small with extra meat assuming that's how they're presented on their social media page, and it's more than enough for one person. I'd recommend NOT getting extra meat unless you're coming with a huge appetite! I've never had a proper cheesesteak in my life until today. Truly deserving of the awards they've received. Will be back whenever in the area as a treat; gotta walk this current one off by the waterfront lol Thank you all at Frank's Pizza & Pasta for a great first experience! read more

Frank's Pizza & Pasta - 9" Small Cheese Steak with onions & extra meat - Pizza Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I finally decided to try Frank's Pizza after hearing so much hype. It's a nice, cute family carryout with a few tables if you want to sit and eat. I ordered the small cheesesteak, and even though the initial hype has died down a bit, it's still pretty popular because there was still a bit of a wait after ordering. The sub was a nice size, so I have no complaints about the portion. However, I felt like it was missing something when it came to flavor. It wasn't bad, but it just didn't have that extra seasoning or taste I was expecting. For $18 for a small cheesesteak, I was hoping to be wowed but it was just ok. Overall, it's worth trying if you're curious. I look forward to going back and trying their pizza and other menu items. read more

As soon as you walk through the door, you are greeted with a "hello" and of plenty pizza/ pasta aromas...not that I could tell them apart. Also, all hot and bubbly cheeses from tĥe oven. You order and pay at the register, they have 3 ways of ordoring...walk in, online, and. Off to the side they have a running log òf In prògress and ready ordeŕs. I was astonished to see our order ready so quicķly. I got the lg cheesèsteak and this was the best one I have ever had. Ŕaw onìons and provolone. The bun was fŕesh and the entire sub was massive!. Hubby went for thè cold cut sùb his all time favorite. It was standard and again, massive. The staff was well prepared in making everything on the menu and remained busy nearly condstantly, so customers never went by the wayside from ordering to receiving. Seating was fairly limited and every bit of space was in use. Free parking in front of the short strip. Check out the bathroom. We will be back for sure. . read more

After seeing all the hype recently I decided to have a go at Franks. Now bear in mind that I am no supreme taster, but I still know when food tastes good and when it doesn't, so bear with me, gentle reader, as we negotiate the twists and turns that make up Frank's Pizza and Pasta. After seeing the TikTok videos extolling the virtues of what many are considering "The Best Cheesesteak in Town" (TT's words-- not mine), I thought perhaps I'd roll down there from White Marsh, since I had business on that side of town today. I had called in my order from the car on the way there so that it would be ready for pickup when I arrived. My order consisted of a 12" Cheesesteak with extra meat ($21.99 + $3.25 for the extra meat bringing the total to $25.24), a 12" Italian Cold Cut, add pepperoni ($18.55 + $2.00 for pepperoni comes to $20.55 for an Italian Cold Cut. Yes, you read that right), and lastly a 16" Cheese pizza ($22.00). I wanted to order a Veal Parm sub, which is my absolute favorite sub, but I was disappointed that currently they do not stock veal, even though it's on all of their menus online and in house. Bummer. I was told by the very sweet counter girl that it would be about 30 minutes. A bit long I thought, but hey, I can wait. Upon arrival, I was surprised to find that it's just an average, nondescript strip plaza type establishment, and fairly worn-down looking to be honest. I don't know why I was expecting more, but I'm open. The parking is tight since there are so many businesses there, and it's not very comfortable to get in straight off a very busy Belair Road, but I managed to do it and find a spot on the lot. My arrival was a Friday early afternoon, so it was only moderately busy inside the restaurant. I waited in my car another 15 minutes since the girl told me it would be 30 minutes to get my order. Right around 30 minutes I went in and having the slightly nagging feeling of being ripped off, I paid for the order. Now, one thing this place does that I really fuckin hate is that the card swiper has that "Would you like to leave a tip?" thing. I don't think I should have to tip for someone handing me a bag. In fact it pisses me off, especially when the cashier girl that will be handing you your bag can see if you do not leave a tip. So, against my better judgement, I left 10% on top of what was already in my opinion a far overpriced meal. I felt abused. But I remind myself that I asked for it, so let's move on.... After being handed my receipt, I was told that my order will be ready soon. There are at least a dozen employees back there, all working in a sort of chaotic confusion. I overhear a lot of "Did you make this?", "Is that ready?", "Huh? What?" etc... Seems to be some language barrier issues also. Bear in mind that 30 minutes plus have passed. I'm seeing pizzas go out that look dry and rather average, not real appetizing. I'm scared. I took a seat and waited. And waited. And waited some more. 55 minutes total have passed, and I am called. Whoopsy. They forgot to make the Italian Cold Cut. 15 more minutes pass, and finally I'm out the door. I immediately inspected the pizza and ate part of a slice. As my instincts had warned, the pizza was just meh. Bland on a good day, with no seasoning and a floppy thin crust that tasted of nothing. In fact, trying to discern any flavor was impossible. At the price charged it was a monstrosity. I thought about how damn good the Domino's Deluxe Pizza was that I had ordered a week ago, At home, the cheesesteak was good-- but not outrageously good, especially for the mind-numbing price of $25.24. I've had cheesesteaks just as good, if not better, for much less (Middle River Pizza I'm talking to you). The real disappointment was yet to come, in the form of the Italian Cold Cut sub. The small proportion of meat and cheese filling to the overly large roll was completely off. Not to mention as soon as I unwrapped it, a coarse, curly black hair made itself known right in the middle of the sub. We were both disgusted and of course the sub was thrown out. A 100% waste of $20.55. See photos (Bear in mind reader, a Wawa 10-inch Classic Italian Cold Cut WITH EXTRA MEAT AND EXTRA CHEESE is only $9.99 and it's so big and full of meat and cheese that you can't even pick it up). So there you have it. Curiosity satisfied. Wallet gouged. Is the cheesesteak good? Sure, Exceptional? No. Worth the price? Never. Will I go back? Probably not, considering you can get as good or better for less elsewhere. And that tipping thing... pisses me off. I don't like feeling ripped off, and I really don't like to eat hair. tl;dr: Franks has a decent cheesesteak but at a premium price. Don't believe the hype, better or equal can be had elsewhere for less. Other foods show poor quality/value. Long wait times, card swipe begs for tipping suggestions for mere cashiers where there is no table service, it is all self-service. Hygiene questions arise with hair found in food. read more

Ordered a pizza, cheesesteak, and fries. Food was pretty good overall. Cheesesteak meat was a bit chewy but thats ok. The reason for the 3 stars is that i waited 30 minutes past the estimated ready time. It was 5pm on a Saturday so a bit of a delay is ok but the item holding the order up was cheese fries. I told them to cancel the fries as i wasnt going to wait any longer but it had to go to a manager and by the time that happened the fries came out. read more

First time ordering from Franks. Heard the rave so been wanting to try. So ordered the Italian cold cut, fries and pizza. First I eat out often and gotta say it was one of the best subs I ever had . The flavor was so point on. Every bite was so tasteful. The roll was so fresh omg the Best. The fries again wow. Never had that type of fries very good. The pizza was everyone's rave but I have to say it was ok. I had better but not hateful. read more

For sure a contender for best cheesesteak in maryland. They're using the coopers sharp white cheddar and the seeded amaroso style roll. I don't particularly like the big square size that they cut their onions. I personally prefer eatliano in Columbia but franks is certainly a top 3 for me. The pizza was great, good char, medium flop, and solid sauce. Service was good although do expect it to be busy since they've been voted best cheesesteak in bmore. read more

I walked in and it was packed with so many people that I wanted to walk out but I stayed on line. The service was not quick and not slow. There are a few seats but you're better off getting your food to go. The veggie pizza was delicious and they sell pizza slices and whole pizzas. The prices are pretty high but kind of worth it. There's not a lot of parking for the customer volume but Popeyes next door has parking. They take cash and card. read more

Frank's Pizza & Pasta - Pizza Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

This is the only place in Baltimore that offers cheesesteak subs prepared just like they do in Philly with Cooper Sharp cheese, thin-sliced ribeye, long green peppers, but with sesame seed rolls and grilled onions! The taste is actually better than most of the Philly places because I think Franks adds just a touch of meat seasoning. The flavor pops in your mouth with an energy that says "Hey, you don't have to drive to Philly for superb cheesesteak!" You can watch them prepare the cheesesteak subs, and it's like you stepped into a Philly joint! The positive energy and vibes from the cooking and serving staff is palpable and genuine! You can tell they love to prepare the best-tasting food they can, to go right into your mouth! Their pizza is most excellent too, as also reviewed by Dave Portnoy, but their cheesesteak is, IMHO, even better than Angelo's (Philly) and DelRossi's (Philly). My Philly fave cheesesteak vendor is still Gooey Looey's, but Baltimore's reigning champion of cheesesteak subs, is humble, little Frank's in Parkville/Overlea! Oh, and the steak pinwheel for only $5.99 is a sleeper hit! You get the flavor of a Philly cheesesteak, plus the semi-delicate pastry of the turnover style dough--fantastic combo of textures and flavors! read more

Went there for pizza and a cheesesteak sub and Franks did not disappoint. The sub was stuffed to the top of the roll with tender juicy steak and my veggie pizza slice was piled high with veggies on a thin crispy crust. The house salad was fresh and large and had a nice house dressing. And the only item that we did not enjoy were the very very hot hard fried french fries. Will return when i need a pizza fix. Great service and friendly staff in a clean environment. Highly recommended by my taste buds. read more

I'd heard a lot about Franks recently and wanted to give them a try. I ordered the sandwich via a delivery app. It came well packaged and hot. I enjoyed the flavor and texture of the seeded roll.

Mission accomplished! First visit called for their famous cheesesteak subs! Three of us ordered and savored. One of us said they liked real mozzarella cheesesteak subs. Some may like it better than Frank's Cheese Au Jus. I liked it just great, with nearly 20 minutes to wait as most customers wanted cheesesteaks.

Frank's Pizza & Pasta - First time! - Pizza Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I've heard great things about Frank's. We stopped in on a weekday while in the area. It's a small spot in a little plaza. You order at the counter and there is a small amount of seating at the front and at the back of the restaurant if you want to eat in. We went at non-peak time; there was still a bit of a line for takeout and some people eating inside, but the line went quickly and there were awesome staff at the counter and in the dining area to clean tables and make sure orders were taken quickly. We decided to try a small pizza with mushrooms and sausage. It came out hot and fresh. With my first bite, I nodded at my bf with enthusiastic happiness. This pizza is the best I've had since moving to Baltimore, and in the top 5 of pizzas I've had overall. The cheese was good quality and perfectly melty, the sauce was a great ratio on the pizza and had a great flavor, the toppings were generous and good, and the crust was delish. Overall, Frank's is worth the hype I've heard! I've heard their cheesesteaks are great also and saw another customer was eating and can't wait to go back and try that! read more

My aunt and I decided to try Frank's Pizza and Pasta and they did not disappoint! My aunt ordered the steak and cheese, and you could instantly tell they used a high-quality cut of steak--it was packed with flavor. I went for the Honey Boo Detroit-style pizza and also tried the Buffalo Chicken Pinwheel. Both were absolutely delicious--fresh, cheesy, and full of flavor. The spot itself is on the smaller side, but there is seating available. Since they tend to get busy, I recommend going right when they open for the best experience. The customer service was also excellent--the staff was friendly, welcoming, and gave us great recommendations on what to try. If you're looking for fresh pizza, amazing cheesy goodness, and a place that truly takes pride in their food, this is definitely the spot. I'll definitely be visiting again! read more

Ordered a pizza for takeout for our first time at Frank's! It was ready right on time - we got the chicken Parmesan pizza. The chicken itself was tasty but I felt there were not enough pieces. I also liked the sauce - a bit sweeter, and the entire pizza itself, but also felt there was not enough cheese. The crust was great - crunchy yet doughy and soft. We did also get a salad which was sparse and small for about $11, I'd nix this. Ultimately we did like all the flavors in the pizza and I'd come back to try more pizzas and the cheesesteak! read more

Frank's needs no assistance getting hype. Food influencers promote it extensively and of course, one bite put them on the map. I've been meaning to order for a while but haven't got a chance until recently. Ordering online wasn't available, so I had to call. They said my order would be ready in an hour and 45 minutes - it was ready in under an hour. So, be flexible. Everyone there was super friendly. I got the beloved cheesesteak with wet hots on the side. They forgot my hots but I always have some in the fridge 8) - it was great! $20 is steep for a sandwich but it's delicious. highly recommend the seeded roll and wet hots. we also got the big mama burrata - soooooo good. the perfect glob of burrata on there with vodka sauce and pep. again, expensive, $32 for 6 pieces of pizza. a great place to splurge on. everything is made with love, care, and fresh ingredients. can't wait to try the original crust! read more

The pizza here is seriously the best in Baltimore , I'd even say it's the best in Maryland. It's always busy but you're getting fresh food, and the inside is cute. I wouldn't recommend sitting in just because of how busy it gets so definitely get a pick up! read more

Second time visiting Frank's, and what a difference this time from the perspective of how busy they were. Seems the trick is to order between lunch and dinner and weekdays have much less wait than weekends. The last time I ordered it was a two hour lead time, this time about 35 minutes. Smaller spot with limited seating and located in a strip mall so nothing fancy. It seems they're constantly busy for pick up/takeout First visit, we ordered a 12 inch pepperoni, sausage pizza and really enjoyed it. It's more of a lighter/thinner crust and closer to New York style with just the right balance of toppings and sauce. Second visit, we ordered a bit more for sharing and tried a few of the other pizzas. White pizza was a hit & we added basil which paired well with this no sauce pie. Another pizza that we enjoyed was the Mediterranean-we added black olives and ground beef just to add more protein and really were impressed with this pie-mostly because we haven't been able to find a proper pesto sauce Pizza and this definitely was the one. We also tried the Gino -Detroit style pizza with pepperoni, sausage and it was tasty given the crispy crust edges and spicy cup pepperoni. Last but not least we got a 12" cheesesteak since we heard so much about this sandwich. Solid seasoned steak and the portions were generous-took a double take at the $20 price but this is a two person Sub. If you order online, have your number ready for pickup. Both visits, It's been quite chaotic, again, second time less given around 4 pm. Service has been friendly and quick but would advise paying attention to the lead time for your order which is shown on their website. Solid spot for tasty pizza and cheesesteak -we will be back! read more

Delicious pizza, lowkey better than L'industrie (for those in NYC who've tried). The owner is so sweet and genuine. He loves to talk about his food and it is really all just amazing. Ordered their cheesesteak, which was so flavorful and not dry AT ALL. The wait was like an hour though, worth every minute!! Also got the regular cheese pizza and the burrata one. I freaking loved the burrata pizza with pepperoni, basil, and hot honey. The crust was so crispy and tasty. The tomato sauce is so fresh and goes so well. Balanced pizza slice with the perfect flavors in my opinion. Don't be scared by the lines inside; most are for takeout. I will be back to conquer more of their menu.... read more

I was in town for work and ordered Frank's for lunch one day. The pizza was decent especially for Baltimore. I loved hearing about the story during Dave Portnoy's visit and I always support + root for small businesses, but overall the pizza was not that impressive. I definitely had higher expectations than what it delivered. read more

TLDR: Came to Frank's after getting the nod from Dave Portnoy. Place is always busy so be prepared to wait. Apps were solid (buff chicken pinwheels + calamari), but the pizza fell short of the hype by being floppy and somewhat undercooked. Hit up Frank's Pizza & Pasta on a Thursday night and the Portnoy effect is real. The place was slammed from the time I got there around 4pm until I left. I managed to snag a small 2 top while my dining buddy ordered. Staff was super up front about the kitchen being backed up (45 min wait), which I appreciated. We weren't in a rush, so all good. We kicked things off with the buffalo chicken pinwheels, which may be one of the best things on their menu. Huge popover style buns overfilled with buffalo chicken, sauce, and bleu cheese. The calamari was another win. Lightly fried, not greasy, and came with a great marinara for dipping. Perfect apps to hold us over. Now for the main event, the pizza. We split a medium eggplant parm pie, which sounded amazing on paper. Unfortunately, this one just missed it's mark. Even though I asked for it well-done, it came out super floppy and messy. We tried letting it cool hoping to crisp up, but no luck. Needed a fork and knife for most slices, and the eggplant was kind of sparse. Flavor-wise it was fine, but not the level of execution I expected from such a raving review from One Bite. To be fair, the kitchen was clearly overwhelmed, and I get that this kind of sudden fame most kitchens are not staffed or equipped to handle. Overall, was satisfied with the meal and I will definitely give them another chance, however they are not even in the same conversation as some of the pies I have tried in Brooklyn and New Haven with similar One Bite Scores. read more

Ordered takeout delivery tonight while recovering from complex foot surgery and unable to be on my feet for long--and I'm so glad I did.

It was exactly what I needed at just the right time. Delicious, satisfying, and beautifully packaged--Frank's Pasta & Pizza did not disappoint. Highly recommend. read more

Dave was right. This was a matter of thorough discussion with Jeremy before we went to Frank's. If you follow Mr. One-Bite, you may have seen that he gave both Pizza John's in Essex, and Rocco's in Glen Burnie high marks. Jeremy and I hated both (Rocco's pizza was burnt, Pizza John's is highly over-rated), so Jeremy refused to respect that Dave gave Frank's high marks for both the pizza and the cheesesteak. The restaurant was crowded when we arrived, and we had to ask a regular how to go about ordering. You order at the counter and they give you a number, which they will call out when your food is ready. You seat yourself. Although the front door was open, it was super warm in the restaurant, which makes sense considering the pizza oven never gets a break. We got a plain cheese pizza, wings, and a cheesesteak. The pizza was incredible; the crust is impossibly thin, yet remains straight when you fold it. Not greasy at all, and flavorful. I could have probably eaten the entire pie myself. I had two slices while in the restaurant, and another later at home, room-temperature and still perfection. The wings were good, but not stand-out. The cheesesteak (grilled onions and cooper sharp)... I'm sad that Frank's is in Overlea and not in my town. Or maybe that's for the best, because I'd eat them all the time. The best cheesesteak that we've eaten outside of Philly. Service is a little spotty. I can understand that it gets confusing when so many orders are coming in all the time, but we dined with a friend, who ordered a stromboli but Jeremy and I were halfway done eating and our friend's food hadn't arrived, so he asked them to box his stromboli. He watched the employee box it, and then she disappeared. It took asking three more employees before they could find it because they had labeled it as for Clark. Our friend is not named Clark. And when we asked for boxes for the remainder of our sandwich and pizza, the employee only brought one box for the sandwich. The three remaining slices of pizza wouldn't fit in the box, and the employee seemed slightly annoyed when we asked for another box. Again, I can understand that the dinner rush must get overwhelming and tiresome, so we just shrugged it off. I would definitely order from Frank's again. I don't think I would dine in again, though. Simply because the warmth of the restaurant and the small size of the dining area. I'm definitely going to need another one of those cheesesteaks. And a customer who told me that she has been ordering from Frank's for over 30 years highly recommended the pizza (they have it by the slice, too, by the way) with the eggplant and I adore eggplant. Would recommend read more

Franks was a delicious experience from start to finish. It's a cozy, family owned spot where the service feels genuine and welcoming. The atmosphere has that nostalgic old school pizza shop charm but with a bit more personality and heart. The cheesesteak on a seeded roll with Cooper Sharp was perfectly seasoned and full of flavor. The pizza was phenomenal crispy, cheesy, and clearly made with care. The Tuesday deal of two pies for $22 is a steal and a great way to sample more of the menu. It's a bit of a drive for me, but parking was easy and stress-free. I'll definitely be back. read more

This cheesesteak really is the truth. Many say Cheesesteak & Co is better, but I've tried both fairly recently and I gotta say Frank's really edges out the competition. One - the bread is better than Cheesesteak & Co's bread. They have seeded rolls. Two - the steak has more of a bite to it. Not tough, but firm enough that it gives an attractive bite. Cheesesteak & Co's steak is more chopped and mushy (not that it's bad because I really enjoyed theirs too). Lastly, the Cooper Sharp Cheese is just the icing on the cake sealing the deal for me. Hands down best Cheesesteak in Maryland!! read more

Normally we order pizza which is exceptional and this time tried Cheesesteak subs. Both my wife and I enjoyed them and they were delicious. We also tried delivery service and we received our order in a reasonable timeframe with food still hot! Delivery driver was great, polite and called us just before arrival. Only displeasure was with online fees for ordering and also delivery. Those don't include a tip for the delivery driver who in our case was great. I didn't let those fees prevent me from still giving a generous tip but could see how it could affect you. Great Foods, Great Delivery Service but unreasonable fees. read more

We came with a friend to Frank's Pizza and Pasta. Now, we came from Southwest B-more so we were like, "the food better be good!" We arrived and it was a small place with limited seating. We chose a cramped booth in the back, surrounded by empty, ready for takeout, pizza boxes. We placed our order (cheesesteak sub, chicken parm sub, and pepperoni pizza) at the counter and sat back in our booth waiting for it to be prepared. We were called when our order was ready and got our food and came back to the booth to eat. I asked for my sub on a seeded roll, which didn't do anything special for it flavor-wise. The steak filling was massive and we could only image what the double meat would have been like. The taste was good with a nice helping of Cooper cheddar cheese to give the sub the depth of flavor that was needed. Not half bad. The chicken parm sub, was massive drenched in a red sauce and lined with meaty cheese on a decent roll. It was good. The pepperoni pizza arrived piping hot. To avoid "roof of the mouth with hanging skin" we waiting a minute for things to cool down and then got into the pizza....nice fermented dough flavor with a smooth red sauce and pepperoni that were not overly salty...nice pizza. All in all, a great place to get a cheesesteak sub, chicken parm sub, and pepperoni pizza, but we definitely need to come back to try out more of the menu items. read more

I have been waiting to try Frank's for a long time and even made a Partiful invitation for this event with my friends. The menu looked amazing and even the pictures online looked impeccable. We cultivated the perfect order for our pizza party and we were SO HUNGRY AND EXCITED!!! Until... we ordered delivery and the estimated time of arrival was in FOUR HOURS from the time of order. HUH???!! I get that it was the weekend, but four hours is absolutely insane. We then tried to call the restaurant to switch it to pick-up or at least determine if that would be faster and we were on hold for over 25 minutes so ended up just hanging up because it was clear no one was answering. It's also safe to say that all of our food was cold by the time it finally arrived to our house. In regards to the food: the garlic bread was pretty average. The meatballs were a flavorful, juicy, and the red sauce had a really nice spicy kick to it. The cheesesteak was actually really good-- probably one of my favorite things. The bread was soft, but crunchy, and the meat to cheese ratio was perfect for my personal preference (70/30 meat/cheese). As stated, the food was cold so we had to reheat everything. The Margherita pizza was my favorite out of the two. I enjoyed the red sauce and the crust, which was super crisp and held up well under the toppings. The big mama burrata was wayyyy too sweet of a sauce for me personally, but my friends loved it so I would recommend it if you like a Detroit style, sweeter vodka sauce. It was $32 for FOUR SLICES though so that's a little insane (especially because it is mainly bread). Anyways, it seems like my partiful invite for this was not worth it because my friends and I were pretty disappointed overall. It did not help that our experience started four hours after we ordered. Probably would not try again. read more

*Quality over Quantity*..Long review. Placed a pick up order via Toast Tab, 2 cheese slices and 1 cheese steak with green peppers and fried onions. The initial wait was 1.5hrs. When arrived, there is no where to park; folks are also waiting for their order. Popeyes has over flow. I walked in 10m before the order was said to be ready, thinking the 1.5 was the shop giving themselves grace and food would be ready to just pass out to customers. Wrong lol I didn't get to speak to anybody behind the counter for about 15m as it was complete chaos inside. Dine in orders, online pick up orders, delivery orders, and in store to go orders being filled at the same time? One has to go. The space is too small to do it all (with the hype). When I inquired about my order, I was informed slices cannot be accommodated due to size of oven with whole pizzas being made. Either I can take it off my order or get a small cheese pizza and pay the difference. I opted in for the small pizza as I already waited this long, what would it hurt? LOL. Waited another 20m for the small pizza to be done and that entire time the cheese steak was "still on the flattop". Cheese pizza: nice sauce, barely can taste the cheese, crust was tough. Cheese Steak: nice bread, No taste, onions and peppers large and did not mesh well. The cheese sauce was a bit loose so it didn't stick to the meat as much as you would have liked. While this was my first and probably only time visiting, for regulars-this moment in time will have lasting effects on future dining. read more

Great pizza in Baltimore. Mozzarella cheese was spread out evenly and the sauce was also tasty. The crust can be more moist. Cheese steaks are huge and expensive but you get lots of meats !!! It was a bit salty and meat quality is meh. If you are in the area, it's worth a trip. read more

Frank's Pizza & Pasta - Margaritas - Pizza Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

On a quest to find the best cheesesteak in our area led me to Frank's. What I liked was it's a Mom & Pop shop with a massive menu & friendly customer service. It wasn't the best cheesesteak that I've had but certainly one I'd have again. My daughter gave her slices of pizza a 9, they were huge and filling. Frank's is tiny... quaint... not a lot of seating, but from my observation, they seem to have a good relationship with the community, remember their repeat customers, and on my way out, one customer raved to me about the quality of the food, including the sauce that they use on their pizza, and to me, that speaks volumes. read more
