    Very enjoyable evening. The staff were all very friendly, welcoming and attentive. The portion sizes were very good, a lot larger than most places for comparable price. The view from the 40th floor adds to the atmosphere. My only criticism is that lack of enforcement of appropriate dress code. The confirmation email mentions a dress code of smart casual & clearly states what is acceptable, however whilst sitting in the dining area it was evident that the dress code stated was not being enforced. There were fellow diners in very causal attire, like faded, ripped fashion jeans and hoddies and trainers. Nowadays there are not many occasions to dress smart to dinner or at least smart casually, but to have a dress code and not enforce it only seems to send out the wrong message and destroys the ambience the restaurant is trying to create. Sometimes it’s not always about gaining the last buck out of any punter that walks through the door. Standards will always speak for themselves. Other than that, myself and my party had a lovely & memorable evening for the right reasons.

    Frank’s was an absolute treat! Every dish we ordered was flavor packed and delicious. We had tickets for a show at the Park Theatre and thought it was a slightly closer walk and there was a train delay so we ended up in a bit of a rush to make curtain time. The staff was knowledgeable, accommodating and very kind. We plan on coming back when we have a bit more time to savor the full experience. I can’t recommend this charming place highly enough.

    A relaxed & welcoming restaurant- helpful & cheerful staff, ready when needed, but not at all intrusive. I had the best bbq steak rib ever 👌& my sisters Sirloin was perfect also, and if we are ever back in Stratford, this is where we'll eat. Thank you all at HS&Co, a dream team & perfect food & ambience.
