If you’re hankering for East Coast Italian food, Frank Competelli has you covered. The Big Apple transplant relocated to California two decades ago and decided to bring the food he grew up with to a new audience, which has received him with open arms. At Frankie’s New York Italian Restaurant, you’ll get the classics prepared with great ingredients and fine attention to detail. Regulars rave about the many lobster preparations on the menu, including a tender stuffed tail and a spicy, hearty lobster fra diavolo. The linguini with clams is also excellent, as are the black Angus aged steaks and the tender osso buco. Portion sizes are large, as you'd expect from an Italian place, and prices are fair. And just like dining in the city that never sleeps, Frankie's is open late—the kitchen doesn't close 'til midnight.
