Great local diner with a rich history. very small so depending on the day and time you may want to defiantly plan to wait but you won't be disappointed! Have the Wow Burger or if in for breakfast have a Garbage plate. more

The food was good , and watching it's production is quite entertaining. However, if you consider yourself to be a person of larger than average proportions you will not be comfortable here. The entire setting is extremely claustrophobic and the barstool I sat on sloped backwards which had me clinging on to the bar so that I did not slide... more

We had breakfast at Frank’s Diner mid-morning on a weekday so it was not too busy. The place was full of regulars and the staff was super friendly. The place is small – situated in an old, long and skinny building – but the portions are huge! The Mickey Mouse pancakes were as big as the kids’ heads and were... more

All the reviews are right - you will be waiting a long time to be seated and for your food. We got there about 10 am on a Sunday, and waited about 35 minutes for a table, and then about 40 minutes after ordering our food. The place is very small. It literally looks like the inside of a train... more

Warning - don't go as a single! After dropping my kids off at Great America Memorial Day weekend, I headed over to check this place out. After waiting half an hour, when I told the young guy seating people that I was a single, he clearly wasn't happy. He proceeded to seat others and when I offered to take my... more

Be ready to wait, but worth the wait! As previously mentioned in other post, the Garbage Plate special is great and make sure you order the home made bread! They ran out of cinnamon buns early which is another signature side. My only complaint is that after our order was placed the wait staff seemed to disappear. We had to... more

The Garbage plate was to die for, no really it almost killed me. Almost hade a heart attack right there on the stool! It was awesome! more

I spent four years at Carthage College in Kenosha and there was no better hangover place than Franks. The garbage place is awesome, and this sounds dumb to everyone I tell, but they have the best bread in the world. Yes, it is their bread that makes the meal! Do yourself a favor and head over to this little hole... more

Ridiculously good breakfasts in a hip setting. If you want good food, executed well and friendly service, check this place out. If you want glass, chrome, ferns and a sterile, stodgy environment where beehived waitresses wear name tags, go elsewhere. Everyone knows about the garbage plate and it's outstanding. The burgers are good, too. If you're lucky enough to be... more
