Frank Marinis, the patriarch of the Marinis family, established Frankies in 1978 in the vibrant Queen West neighbourhood. Though Frank is no longer with us, his legacy and tradition continue to thrive. Frankies has been a home away from home for many locals and a destination for tourists and foodies alike.
The restaurant is renowned for its mouthwatering burgers made with the freshest ingredients and served at reasonable prices. Frankies' commitment to quality and consistency has made it a staple in the community, and its loyal customer base is a testament to its success.
Despite its popularity, Frankies remains a family-owned and operated diner that values the importance of personal connection with its customers. The Marinis family takes pride in providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes everyone feel at home.
Come and experience the magic of Frankies, where Frank's spirit lives on through the food, service, and family traditions that continue to be passed down from generation to generation.
When we use the term "homemade," we are not simply referring to the fact that the food is prepared in our own home. Rather, we view our customers as an extension of our family, and our comforting dishes are crafted with care and affection, as if we were cooking for our own loved ones. After all, we consider you to be a part of our family.
