Frank Restaurant Review

Frank takes the lowly hot dog and gives it a newfound, well, maybe not elegance, but certainly showmanship. Aptly billed as artisan sausages, house favorites include the Jackalope, a smoked antelope, rabbit and pork sausage with cranberry compote, sriracha aïoli and cheddar. The Creole gator is, you guessed it, an alligator sausage dressed with popcorn crawfish, slaw and Creole rémoulade....

Like their motto says, Frank = Hot dogs and cold beer. They also have a plethora of bacon and fried everything options on the menu. In addition, they have one of the coolest changing art walls in Austin - that features new talent each month.

Frank just does so many things right, it almost isn't fair to other restaurants. There's the killer location (4th and Colorado), their sharp, hip branding, their glorious craft cocktail menu (bacon-infused vodka Bloody Mary's, anyone?), and finally, their food. Oh, their food! Frank has an in-house sausage program, and their specialties include a pleasantly sour pork and beer brat, as well as an antelope, rabbit and pork sausage (that isn't overpoweringly gamey). Frank wasn't the first beloved hot dog institution in Austin, but since opening four years ago, it has upped the game of every...

Eating artisanal sausage makes you feel less like a pig. Throw in a "rec room" and you have a way to work off some of it. Offer a dozen high-end coffee drinks and your energy is restored. Get a good graphic designer to accent the place with slogans that champion pork to ease your conscience. That is how you rationalize eating hot dogs.

Faux old-timey upscale hot doggery shows deep dedication.

In spite of obvious efforts to present an old-timey front, there is a distinctly nouvelle feel here. White-washed brick walls, a lovely old butcher counter and faux-vintage signs lend a clean,...

The place for hot dogs

Average Rating
100

Awesome custom made hot dogs. You can try their exotic combinations if you are an adventurous eater. I had jackalope and could taste the difference between the meats. I plan to go back to sample their other offerings. This was a team lunch & we car pooled. Parking can be challenge so plan for it. It also gets pretty busy...

Great selection of brats & beers

Average Rating

First of all, a great selection of canned beers & draught beers. But the food is even better, with many great options. I tried two: the Jackalope (deer & rabbit sausage topped with cranberry sauce, cheddar cheese, siratcha aoli), and the Fico Anatra (pork & duck sausage topped with goat cheese, italian fig sauce, shallots). Oh, and bacon chocolate chip...

Great stopping point for the Bar Crawl

The girls needed to sober up a bit after some serious drinking and dancing ... what better way than to have a bite.
We had pretty low expectations for this place ... merely caloric intake; but what we got was so much more!
The wait staff was amazing and very capable of handling the drunkenness with acute skill and tact....

looks kind of suspect but it is delicious. Also the bacon chocolate chip cookie is tasty. The hot dogs are fabulous by the way.
