Review Frankie's Lobstah Trap - Tampa

Uri nun
Nice new restaurant. The price is a little high compared to the portion sizes. Kind of a small restaurant. Only one unisex restroom. The taste is definitely there but not suberb. I loved the the tenderness of squid as calamari and grilled. The fries were good with the truffle oil. Old fashioned was a little expensive for the taste and portion size.

The food here is really good. The restaurant is kept open, which is nice on a cool day but it was a little hot. They have multiple flat screens nice the bar to enjoy while you eat. Overall, it was a good experience and I would come back. I ordered a lobstah roll with the garlic butter. I really enjoyed the roll and definitely think you should upgrade to the truffle fries because they are delicious. Last time I got the mac nd cheese as an upgraded side but it was okay. The mac and cheese did have multiple pieces of lobster which was good but the flavor was not exactly what I wanted. I didn't order a drink so I can't comment on how they are made but the bar service seemed pretty good for the people around us. Staff was nice but we did have a bit of a wait. I had to move my drink in order to show that I needed a refill and the same thing happened the last time I came. But overall, it was good and the food was tasty.

Went to Frankie's for lunch and the food was excellent. Our server Anishah was outstanding and very attentive to all our needs. I read all the negative reviews and still decided to try it out and I'm glad I did.

This restaurant was very scrumptious. The waiters were very attentive to our needs. I came here with my girlfriend for date night and we had a great time. I would definately recommend this place to anyone looking for a night out! The prices arent crazy either! Great restaurant overall.

I would give it 4.5 stars just because they were out of oysters during happy hour ;) But the lobster bisque was excellent (if a tad on the salty side) and the grilled octopus was juicy and not rubbery: just right. I was concerned about service, given the other reviews but Nikki has been very attentive. Will visit again.

Our seafood pasta and steamed clams were just amazing! The owner, Frank, was very nice and always at disposal. Considering the quality, the price is justified.

Great lobster chunks, decor is super cute and the bathroom is clean. Perfect for outdoor dining, sharing apps & cocktails with friends.

Great little no fuss spot for seafood dishes. Everything was very flavorful and fresh. Real crab in the dip and perfectly cooked lobster in the rolls. They have a housemade sauce that's served with fries, but it goes great on everything. The service was amazing and attentive, even as things got busy.The restaurant is small, so seating for 12+ may be tight. Definitely going back.

The food was delicious. We visited this spot with 27 people in tow for a birthday and the customer service was impeccable. Frank and his team made a great first impression on us. I think we must have ordered an item from each section and it was all delicious. But let me just brag on the truffle fries.... The best I have ever had! We will definitely visit again.

I don't really care for seafood myself, but I enjoyed this place. We ordered a tempura shrimp roll, lobster bisque, a lobster roll, lobster mac and cheese, and truffle fries. Lobster was not fishy and clearly fresh. Everything came out quickly and the service was great. Atmosphere was comfy and the decor is fun. Great for a quick lunch but would make a nice date night dinner too.

Food was better than expected. Had the yummy clam chowder-lots of clams and not overly creamy and thick. Chicken fried rice came out hot and tasty and lobster tacos were a good deal at 2 for $11. Biggest disappointment was service - no one brought crayons for kids until asked, food took a long time and server was very inattentive. Otherwise, a nice addition to Bay Street.

Food was delicious, had the crab artichoke dip, calamari and surf and turf fried rice. Lobster was cooked perfectly, steak filet medallions cooked so they still melt in your mouth. Calamari was also cooked well, not rubbery. Service wasn't the best but we had a large group. Server could have been a bit more attentive but overall not bad. I would definitely return as there were items others ordered that looked and said were delicious.
