You can really never go wrong here! If they don't have the slice with the toppings ready at the front, order a cheese slice, and add your own. Two slices usually does it for me,...

Great Pizza And Green Salad 2/17/2010

I visited this pizza parlor today during my lunch period and I must say it was pretty awesome. The pizza was good and the mixed green salad was fabulous. Although I must admit the ambiance was not so traditional where u needed a waitress but maybe the location makes the owner feel that a waitress is need, Idk, but I do know the food was acceptable. Will go back again..... Pros: Great for lunch / Great Walk for my lunch period. Cons: IDK....... more

Good food, horrible dining experience 9/16/2009

The pizza is great. Pros: Pizza is great! Cons: Waitstaff are incredibly rude! more

Great Ceasar Salads (with Grilled Chicken) 7/18/2009

One must try the ceasar w/ grilled chicken. I have had it at least twice a week for the last 3 weeks. Combined with a frosty cold Barq's Root Beer makes an enjoyable lunch indeed. They also have pizza and beer if that's your thing :) more

Good pizza, bad waitresses... 3/21/2009

Years ago, I went to this place with a few friends. I thought it was super cool...all the signatures on the wall and everything... I moved out of the area, but moving back recently I went again... The BBQ chicken pizza was alright, the waitress was a bit slow.... I went here again last night after a show down the street at the Key Club. Wow. It was probably the most horrible dining experience ever. My frined and I stood at the counter waiting to make our order. There were three people working. None of them were busy. I said to my frined ""Is this what it feels like to be invisible?"" Still, no service. Finally some blonde waitress asked what we want, and took my order as if she was doing me a huge favor. She gave me a large to go cup of soda 99% filled with ice. There were about 2 sips of soda in the whole thing. My order was to go, but she served me on a paper plate. When I asked for a box, she stomped back and got it for me, again, as if she was too good for the joint. \r When we finally left, I said thank you to her she responded with a snarky ""yeah."" and we left. \r The pizza was pretty good, but I will never go there again. There are a millon pizza places around, I'll just choose another one where the wait staff doens't treat people like they don't exist. Pros: Really good pizza Cons: The snarkiest waitresses around more

This place needs help! 4/21/2008

If you are looking for an evening of receiving unpleasant service from some waitresses that are apparently too good to work in a pizza shop (but actually do), and having some horrible pizza, this is the right place for you. I know Frankie & Johnnie's for over 7 years now but must admit that their service and food is getting worst everyday. I am sure that I will not go back there for Pizza. Pros: Nice Name Cons: Service & Food more

Horrible customer service 3/25/2008

I ordered a pizza to-go for myself and my fiancee, and the girl working was very unpleasant on the phone. When I got there to pick up the order the service was not any better. I was not greeted by the girls standing there doing nothing and the girl that rang me up acted as if I was being a huge inconvenience to her. The only thing she said to me the entire time was how much my order was. And the pizza, just average. We got a half hawaiian half pepperoni and it wasn't great. The crust was extremely hard. Zpizza on Santa Monica is much better, both the pizza and the service. I will definitely not be returning to Frankie & Johnnie's, which is unfortunate because it is right down the street from us. more

Fast and convenient, but if you have the time, go elsewhere. 1/19/2008

The pizza is really just okay. A bit on the oily side, and has a funny ""twinge"" to it -- you know, the kind of thing you can tell other people may LOVE it for, but just doesn't strike you quite right. Since a lot of the other reviews are so glowing, I guess it's best to give it a try yourself -- maybe the aforementioned ""twinge"" WILL be your thing, even though it certainly wasn't mine. Also, when we visited (1/19/08), the restaurant currently had a ""B"" health code rating, just so you are aware. Pros: Fast and convenient, by-the-slice Cons: Better pizza can be found elsewhere more

Best slice in town! 12/18/2007

You can really never go wrong here! If they don't have the slice with the toppings ready at the front, order a cheese slice, and add your own. Two slices usually does it for me, and if I have room for dessert, I get the cheesecake. They give you two slices, so it's worth the $6. I usually take the second slice home. This is a must for NY style pizza lovers! Pros: Toppings, cheesecake, cute girls working. Cons: A little too bright inside. more

Awesome pizza, cute staff 11/23/2007

Frankie & Johnny's is the best pizza on the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood. The little location is cute with it's signed walls. The best pizza here is the Little Pauli's Special. Mmm-hmm. They can handle large groups too. more

A Good Lunch Spot 10/30/2007

I've worked down the street for a couple of years but only tried this in the past couple of months. The pizza is yummy - I'm not sure how to describe it but it's different than the chains. I love the one (Pauli's) loaded with different meats. Last time I ordered a sandwich (Jimmy The Greek). It was fantastic and I couldn't believe how generous the portions were. It was a nice spicy sandwich topped with sliced cherry peppers. I will definitely be going back for more of that!\r \r You can buy pizza by the slice and they have a nice selection so it's not just the run-of-the mill pepperoni, cheese, and veggie options. \r \r For the star-struck, the walls are filled with autographs from celebs. \r \r 3/12/09: Downgraded my rating to 3. The last few times I've gone I've ordered by the slice and the pizza just hasn't been that flavorful. Yesterday I got the $4.95 lunch special: half a Caesar salad (big portion and yummy), a slice (might as well have been cardboard) and a soda. Pros: Good Food Options Cons: On the Pricy Side, Mopped Floor While Patrons Ate more

Best Pizza in Brentwood!! 7/12/2007

Frankie and Johnnies has the best tasting pizza in the Brentwood area. They have many different toppings and the pizza is affordable. They even have a wall that they let customers write/draw on. I recommend Frankie and Johnnies for anybody looking for good pizza in brentwood! Pros: BEST PIZZA FOR SUCH A GREAT PRICE Cons: Parking, and they should paint over the wall so customers can write on it again. more

horrible customer service 4/23/2007

I had ordered one pizza from Frankie & Johnny's when I was at my friend's house, and therefore had it delivered to their address. For whatever reason, they stored my debit card information, without my permission. Not only that, but they didn't even put the card under my name, but rather put my card information under my friend's name an address. They then claim every time someone orders they ask for the last 4 digits of a card before they allow the order to go through. However, there is no possible way my friend would have my card info, and therefore apparently someone forgot this ""procedure."" My friend and his roommates actually order from there on a regular basis, so when they call the employees know their name by now, and that's probably why they didn't ask for confirmation when placing an order. Now I have a $55 charge on my card that Frankie & Johnny's is refusing to refund me for, and the manager herself didn't even call me back, but had the general manager relay a message for her. In my opinion if you have faulty procedure in the first place, and a customer who is greatly upset because they were wronged, it might be a good idea, as a business owner, to do whatever you can to resolve the issue and make your customer happy, as to avoid complaints such as this one and loss of further business. more

Very tasty, big portions, large selection! 4/6/2007

This is a great New York-style place to grab pizza, a sandwich, or a salad. The pizza is hot, fresh-made, and gooey, and the servings are ENORMOUS - ""one slice"" is actually two large slices placed next to each other. $3.50 for the equivalent of two slices of pie is a total steal! They have great specialized options, like pesto chicken, as well as about 20 large and filling sandwich options. I got a Caesar salad there the other day that was delicious - the croutons were fresh and oily (mmmm), there wasn't too much dressing, and the large chunks of chicken were juicy and piping hot! One caveat: it was a little expensive (almost $9). Still, hearty fare at a clean and fun location - good for stopping by, but not really a destination spot. Pros: food, selection, freshness Cons: very casual - more of a grab-a-quick-lunch spot more

One of the better Pizzas in L.A. 10/17/2006

While going to the strip is usually as much fun for me as having a black tooth pulled, Frankie and Johnnie's makes it okay. The crust is actually crispy (imagine that!) and thin and the amount of cheese and toppings remind me of your average NYC pizza joint. While there is a place like this on nearly every corner in Manhattan, L.A. for some reason can't get it right. When people here think Dominos, Pizza Hut and La Pizza Loca (Yikes!) makes good Za, maybe all hope is lost. Pros: A nice slice Cons: location - the belly of the beast more

Recent weekday lunch 8/16/2006

Wow - this place has really gone downhill. Walked in on a Thursday at 12:45 PM. Not that many customers. I grab a seat facing the windows and the waitresses in there are clueless. Two of them in the place and focused their time on each other standing around. Waited 45 minutes for eggplant parmesian sandwich. Complete garbage. \r To sum up: bad waitresses, worst eggplant parm ever, waste of time. Overpriced for what it is but they have to pay somebody rent for a trendy spot on the strip Pros: pizza Cons: everything else, waitresses more

Enormous CALZONES 5/22/2006

I love their food. Best slices around. However, be warned about their calzones. They are HUGE. Bigger than a football...really the size of a newborn! Enough food for 4 people. It's really quite startling. But yummy. more

Two hour delivery time...and counting 3/8/2006

Buyer Beware! While Google Maps says my home is six minutes away from Frankie & Johnnie's by car, it has been a full TWO HOURS since I ordered and the delivery still is not here. 45 minutes ago, the driver called to ask for directions. He did not know the area well at all. Fifteen minutes after that, with no driver in sight, I called the manager and was told they'd make it free. Now, twenty five minutes after being told it'd be free, I'm still waiting. They'd have to pay me fifty bucks to order from them ever again. Insane! And it's only a Wednesday night. Excuse me--Thursday. It just passed midnight. Cons: Insanely slow service more

Go for the calzone, stay for the calzone 8/5/2005

So delicious! I like to say that it's the size of a sleeping cat. One of those is the best deal in town for a casual dinner for two. Their salads and pizzas are also great. more

User review by muzikchix 6/6/2005
