Wine on tap is awesome, gnocchi was silky and smooth - in and around my mouth - and probably the best I’ve had in my life. The butter and sage sauce on the tortellini is delectable and worth cleaning up with the fresh bread afterward. Service was friendly and efficient, we were easily able to finish three courses within the set two hour booking time without feeling rushed. Great atmosphere, modern and warm.

I've followed the progress on whoismsfrankie and cannot believe the transformation from the former warehouse that it was. I was beyond impressed with the service, ambience, food and drinks. Each dish oozes passion & love and you can pull up a stool and watch your pasta being rolled before your very eyes. It's hard to pick a favourite because everything is amazing but I cannot recommend more highly the truffle & porcini gnocchi and the spaghetti marinara- paired with one of the amazing TAP wines, it doesn't get much better than that! Oh wait it does... the cannoli are to die for! This new kid on the block is fast becoming one of the best pasta bars in Melbourne #WillBeBackInAProsecco

Best place for lunch on a Summer's day - or any day for that matter. Speedy service that makes you feel like one of the family, absolutely beautiful food, and an endearing setting. I'll be back more than once.

Had the absolute pleasure of sampling Ms Frankie's brand new Menu last night. Incredible Authentic Italian Hearty Food in an amazing setting. Melbournians, add this to the top of your list for Italian cuisine this summer! ���

I just got home from my first visit to Ms. Frankie and I’m still thinking about the incredible porcini and truffle gnocchi � The Aperol spritz was the cherry on the cake. Definitely the place to go for great food, vibes and gorgeous layout. Will be returning soon!

I absolutely loved my visit to Ms Frankie and was raving about the experience for awhile afterwards.
A friend and I got the Sicilian Street Food Board to share as entree which was a great way to sample a range of different items.
For my main I couldn’t go past the Rigatoni Oxtail Ragu - it was AMAZING. A rich dish, full of flavour and the pasta was cooked beautifully. It all melted in my mouth.
For dessert we got cannoli to take home. I am a huge fan of traditional Italian cannoli and this did not disappoint.

The venue itself was nice and cosy with a great vibe. Staff were friendly and helpful when asked questions.
I would definitely recommend to family & friends and look forward to visiting again!

The food here is delicious - a real flavoursome treat for your tastebuds! The fresh pasta melts in your mouth and the tiramisu is sensationally creamy.

The staff were friendly but getting service was a little hard; however, once we were served the food and drinks came out fast.

The dark setting and dim lighting make this restaurant perfect for a really cute date night.

What a lovely gem. Move aside Tipo 00, this is my new favourite. After a long drive round the small streets we finally found parking and it was well worth it. There is no question this place oozes coolness. The share platter at the start was abundant and interesting. I learnt what Pane Panella actually was and how it was meant to be eaten. The waiter was very eager to explain certain dishes which we weren’t accustomed to. The rigatoni oxtail Ragu was sensational! Burst of gelatinous flavour. Highly recommended. I’m not usually a fan of gnocchi but this one was light and fluffy. The beef Ragu was packed full of flavour. The gnocchetti was also a nice surprise and a first first for us.

Food was good, amazing Italian food. I absolutely loved gnocchi. Tho a lil bit on the small serving size. The waiter was very helpful in explaining to us what each dish was 🍝

One thing I disliked is that we were not consented if we wanted plain water or sparking water 🍸 Plus we were not aware that we were charged a price of around $5-7 for a whole bottle 🍾 & we requested for refill and hence got charged again 😡

So happy to have found this place, absolutely loved all the food from start to finish. Antipasto board was great, all cuts of meat so fresh. Both pasta dishes were absolutely beautiful especially the gnocchi ragu, meat was so tender and the sauce was perfect, amazing homemade flavours. Cannoli were the best I have had by far. Ricotta filling was the perfect amount of sweetness and so fresh and the shell was light and crunchy, my parter is from Italy and agreed and he is very hard to please !! Can’t wait to return

A very cool place to have an excellent Italian dinner. The place is very inviting and it was fully booked the night we were there. The food was tasty and it was a great night out. The service was very good and happy to help with any questions.

Food was great and was quite busy yet still managed to get out food quickly. Quick walk from Richmond station and was happily surprised by the bill at the end, very reasonable for the quality of food.

Wow wow wow! Went to ms Frankie over the weekend and absolutely loved it. Their wine list is to die for and the food is amazing! So many yummy choices so we all ordered a pasta each and shared. The staff are so lovely and love the venue. Only thing I didn’t rate as much would be some of the tables are too close to each other but didn’t mind too much just was hard to get in and out of my seat. Well done guys, def recommend and will be coming back soon!

Great customer service on top of delicious food, porcini gnoochi was so good, needed a little salt but overall very tasty. The burrata board with olives was equally pleasurable so good we had two serving of house bread. Italian wine and rose to finish off this perfect meal

Went here on Friday night with Vinh and we absolutely loved it! We had really great attentive service even though the restaurant was busy, I honestly don’t understand the bad reviews regarding the service. We ordered the prosciutto which came with a creamy mozzarella that melted in your mouth it was amazing !! We also ordered a gnocchi and spaghetti dish both were equally good and the sauce tasted just like Nonna’s!! I will definitely be back :)

The food was up there and definitely has potential to hit the 5* score. What they lack in service (a bit scattered) they make up for with passion for their food. Looking forward to trying more of the menu!

Absolutely love Ms. Frankie - amazing food in a beautiful setting, with attentive service. Have been here quite a few times, and it's now my go-to place for pasta when in the city. Have tried almost all of the pastas and cannot fault them - soooo amazingly good!! Arancini are also a highlight!

A bit underwhelmed by my Ms Frankie experience. I’d heard such fantastic things about the pasta here but it didn’t really match expectations. I ordered the tagliatelle bolognese and felt that it needed a lot more flavour. I also unfortunately found a hair in my pasta. I really like the concept of Ms Frankie though and my fellow diners really loves the gnocchi so I plan to go back and give it another chance.

My partner took me here for dinner tonight and we have left super impressed.
The fit out of the restaurant is so lovely and the artwork through the big glass windows looks amazing.
House Pinot Grigio was delish!
Now the food- oh my goodness!! We had a couple of entre’s which were great but the Mariana pasta was the winner for me, it was the best I’ve ever eaten and the perfect size. My partner had the seafood special pasta with scampi and Morton bay bugs and it was just as good!
I’m not one for desert so we shared the Nutella sundae, AMAZING!! I honestly regret sharing..
such a beautiful place and the staff just topped our night off.
Can’t wait to return, hopefully when we can watch the pasta being made through the big glass windows. Will definitely be recommending this to everyone!! Have not found an Italian restaurant I’ve like as much as this.
Thanks guys!!

Went with a group of 10 and we were so well fed from their set menu of $65pp. Very worth it and the pasta was amazing! Bit of a wait inbetween entrees and main but overlooked that as the wait staff were fantastic. Will be visiting again.

Now THATS a serving 😂👏🏽 You definitely won’t leave here hungry with these portions. Nor will you leave dissapointed - we both loved our dishes! The deep fried olives and cheese were the perfect side along with the simple offering of complimentary bread for our pastas. Service was at its best, very honest, friendly and helpful with dietary requirements. They have changed their menu since we have visited, so these dishes are no longer available. However I have no doubt you will find options just as good!

Been to Ms Frankie several times and last night we tried the new Carlton venue for my birthday. The ambiance is stunning at Ms Frankie Cremorne, and although Carlton is different in style, it also has a great ambiance, with a nod here and there to nonna's house, from the wallpaper to the rosary beads, and it's very chic as well. The food was sensational as always. One of the owners, Wani, was front of house last night and she runs a smooth operation, always professional, in control and always friendly. The antipasto dishes are delicious, we had the potato croquets, and the arancini. Some of the best we have eaten. I had the spaghetti marinara. In an instant I was taken back to Italy. Homemade pasta and a delicious flavour. My husband had the mixed grilled fish - another winner. My daughter basically inhaled her gnocchi (she says they're the best she's had here and in Italy). The desserts are definitely worth fitting into your already full tummy. My GOD those pistacchio and nutella donuts are sensational. All I can say, is thank goodness, Ms Frankie is in Carlton, breathing life and all things Italian back into Lygon street and Carlton. It's what we've all been crying out for. This block / corner of Carlton is coming back to it's Italian roots. Thank you Mel and Wani (and Enza for all the inspiration). Grazie
