I would be eating alone on Thanksgiving. Do they have a bar to eat at? What is the dress code?

They have a small, quaint, bar area. For a guy, I would wear nice jeans and a sport coat if you want to dress casual. Oxford or polo shirt. Try pulling up their website to see some shots of the bar area.

Im a big guy and like to eat big. Do they have like a captains platter or seafood boil?

I believe that they create very flavorful and filling plates that are not really based upon volume as much as quality.

Where can I find a menu? Trying to plain a work Hoilday dinner

Calling is the best plan of action to get the available menu plus make reservations for your party

There was 8 of us for dinner last Saturday night and we each had different meals and everyone of us had food poisoning. It was so bad, 3 of us went to the Emergency Room. None of us will go back. They obviously don't properly handle their food correctly.

I only had the Sunday brunch and it was fantastic. Worth every penny! So many choices and flavorful dishes. Everyone was extra nice and the historic house tops it of. My partner enjoyed a mimosa, as for myself bloody Mary was on point. I am looking forward to trying dinner here 🤤

Will not go back! My husband ordered chicken and it came out not cooked in the middle. I ordered medium well steak that came out bloody, sent back, which is something I do not like doing. Second time, it was still not cooked right. I told them I was done. Waitress apologized and offered to cook it more. I told her NO thank you. They did cook it more. When they brought it back it looked like a brick. Staff was nice and said they would send manager by. We never saw a manager, only was charged for drinks, and got coupons for brunch. I still wont go back.

We made arrangements a week prior to our visit to have a private room upstairs for our party of 10. We also asked the chef make us a custard pie for dessert. His custard pie was the very best we'd ever tasted. Everything else was also delicious. This is a very uncommon type of restaurant for Bristol, which is a definite plus.

Food was excellent!! A lot of choices. My wife and I ordered lobster scampi and baked Brie with berry compote both excellent choices and cooked perfectly for the main meal we each had field and stream which comes with a piece of trout and a tenderloin steak and our sides were southern Brussels and smashed potatoes, both steaks were seasoned excellent and cooked perfectly. So much food we weren’t able to eat it all but we ordered Key-lime cake to go which turned out to be amazing. We look forward to visiting again!! When traveling through the area this is definitely a must stop for anyone passing through it’s a very great place to have a private dinner with out feeling like you are being rushed. Thanks J Franks this was our first time but definitely will not be our last!! Looking forward to stopping by

The coffee was the best by far! The owner and staff went out of their way to make us feel at home. What a great experience! Will be back again!!!

First time here, great food, great service. Husband had the “very large” ribeye and I had a mahi-mahi/lobster tail special. Both were delicious. Cheese grits were a great side choice. Waiter, Josh, did a great job. Will recommend and return.

The brunch this morning at J Frank's was nothing short of amazing! A perfect place to celebrate a special occassion with our family in the upstairs room. The food was fabulous! The special touch was all the freshly squeezed juices.. especially the watermelon flavor! Josh handled our lively group with the utmost professionalism. Certainly a place I will return on my next visit

This restaurant has very good food and the potential to be a really great restaurant. Unfortunately, the service has not kept pace with the kitchen. Last week we brought out of town guests to the restaruant and two of us ordered the mussells all you can eat. After bringing our food the server did not return to our table for over thiry minutes during which time we were trying to get her attention. We finally just gave up... additionally one of our guests did not get her salad, but she did not notice till we were about to leave. I just hope it is growing pains, because we love the food!

The food and the service is always excellent. They change the menu so it's something tasty and different. The steaks are always cooked to perfection. This is the number one place to eat at in the trip cities.I definitely recommend the caesar salad.Also it has a warm and cozy setting. If you're looking for fine dining this is the place to go. I'd recommend dressy casual.

This place is a bit hidden in a residential area but it's worth the find! The food is incredible! They have stellar customer service. Each dish was a treat for my taste buds. I'm sad I didn't have room for dessert. The prices are decent for a high quality steak house. If you're in Bristol and want something a bit more upscale then look for this hidden gem!

My wife and I come here frequently but on Valentine's day the food was simply terrible from missing side dishes, over cooked dry fillet, black blobs of something in my water, incorrect side dish, bland tasteless risotto, uncooked brussel spouts and the 2oz glass of beer that was just foam. The fact that they act like they are doing you a favor by letting you eat at their restaurant We will NEVER go back here.
