Nestled in the heart of Hillsboro, Texas, Frenkie's Pasta & Pizza stands as a genuine celebration of Italian culinary tradition. This inviting Italian and pizza restaurant offers a warm, casual dining atmosphere where you can savor some of the most authentic and flavorful dishes reminiscent of a bustling Tuscan trattoria.
At Frenkie's, each plate is a testament to time-honored recipes executed with passion and precision. Their menu is a treasure trove for lovers of Italian comfort food. Dishes like the Lasagna boast rich layers of savory sauce and melted cheese that melt on your tongue, while the Tortellini Modo Mio delights with perfectly al dente pasta encasing flavorful fillings. The Chicken Alfredo is luxuriously creamy, enveloping tender chicken with decadent, cheesy sauce that invites you to savor every bite. For pizza aficionados, Frenkie’s offers a wide array — from the classic, thin-crust Pepperoni Pizza and the fresh, herbaceous Margarita Pizza, to the indulgent Frenkie’s Special topped with generous layers of premium ingredients. The crust strikes that ideal balance between chewy and crisp, crackling slightly at the edges and providing a perfect base for the vibrant medley of toppings.
Start your meal with handcrafted appetizers like the savory Stuffed Mushrooms or the irresistible Fried Ravioli, which customer Clay Bradley rightly describes as “OMG… awesome,” served with a tangy marinara that perfectly complements each bite. Homemade breads such as the Garlic Cheese Bread and Garlic Bread provide the perfect accompaniment, ideal for dipping into sauces or simply enjoying on their own.
Frenkie’s culinary offerings extend beyond pasta and pizza. Dishes like Chicken Piccata and Veal Marsala showcase sophisticated flavors with tender proteins bathed in zesty, wine-infused sauces, while the unique Cook a Steak and elegant Beef Wellington add a touch of refined indulgence to the menu. And for a sweet finish, the Great Tiramisu offers a classic, creamy dessert layered with coffee-soaked ladyfingers that leave a lasting impression.
What truly sets Frenkie's apart is not just the quality of their food but the heartfelt hospitality that infuses every dining experience. As Bianca shares, the owner and chef’s friendly demeanor creates a welcoming vibe that makes every guest feel like family. Reviewers consistently praise the staff’s attentive service and the way the owners go above and beyond, ensuring satisfaction with every visit—a sentiment echoed passionately by Yaser Alshoumali, who describes Frenkie’s as the "best pizza place ever."

Sharing a review on behalf of my husband and his coworker who are in town for work and decided to have dinner here. They said everything was delicious and genuinely authentic. It was either the owner or chef or both that they encountered but had nothing but great things to say about him and his very friendly demeanor. Definitely recommend stopping by and ask for the Frenkie's special!
Best pizza place ever without a doubt, i wish i lived near by. The food was beyond great and the staff was amazing and the owners would go above and beyond just to make sure that you’re satisfied. I’m definitely going to stop there every single time im in the area
Frenkie’s catered our small office party, and every bite was pure perfection! The food was absolutely delicious — hands down the best lasagna I’ve ever tasted, with layers of rich sauce and perfectly melted cheese. The Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo was creamy, tender, and bursting with comforting flavor, great for dipping the homemade rolls in. The entire experience felt like a little trip to Tuscany, with Frenkie’s warm and inviting atmosphere adding to the charm. I can’t wait to return and explore more of their incredible menu — it’s a true hidden gem!
Really good pizza. Strange how the best pizzas or just anything are in the most unassuming locations. Probably the most new York style pizza outside of the north east ive ever ate. Lots of toppings, great crust, and don't let me forget to mention those fried ravioli. OMG... Those were awesome. And with that marinara sauce, Not too bad. Definitely a place you'll wanna try out if you're coming thru hillsboro. Great service, clean restaurant and a great pizza pie. O...and try the Italian creme cake.
They have the best pasta and pizza I've ever tasted in town. The pizza is delicious and thin. You can't stop trying Frankie's pizza, it's out of this world. The best pasta for us was tortolini. They have a delicious homemade bread that we all love. If you pass through Hillsboro you definitely have to get to this place.
This was undoubtedly the best Italian dinner I have in a very long time. Large portions, salad included with entree, and very reasonable prices. Home made sausage was delicious and the Baked Tuscany was superb!! Met the owner and his wife, Sonila. Very hospitable and welcoming. Relaxed atmosphere. Angela ,our server, was very attentive and adorable!! Great overall experience.
