I was told not to miss Frank & Helen’s Pizzeria. So for my solo meal of the week, I stopped here. A bit busy with a brief wait for a table because they just don’t have enough servers. Still, the young lady who served me was fabulous perhaps because she wasn’t completely overloaded. After I arrived at 7pm, only two other parties arrived after so I would suggest arriving later and you shouldn’t have to wait.
The reviews of the creamy garlic salad dressing are legit. The salad itself is nothing special. It could just as easily have been from a bag at the supermarket and the same with the croutons. But don’t miss the dressing.
I chose a Frank’s Special pizza in “mini” size which arrived about five minutes after the salad. Perfectly topped and cut into squares, it was excellent. I did not notice the anchovies at all which was the only disappointment. Delicious toppings, perfectly cooked and not at all the “cracker” crust that Saint Louisans seem to like.
It’s unfortunate that I didn’t have a dining mate with me or we could have split a larger pizza and also tried the broasted chicken which looked and smelled amazing but I just can’t eat that much food by myself. Maybe next time!

I had the Frank’s special which was very delicious. The staff is very kind and accommodating. The pizza crust is crackley, crispy and flavorful. The toppings were fresh and generous. I ordered the chicken wings which were not good. They were very unremarkable. The pizza however was great. This place is special and it has a unique and homey atmosphere.

When it comes to Stl Style Pizza, Frank and Helens is a staple for the region. When inside, the resturant gives off relaxing, homey vibes and has those awesome red cups you use to be able to find everywhere. You can definitely tell that this place has been in business for a while.
The food and drinks are great, especially the pizza. For this trip, we had a meatlovers and supreme pizza, both of which were excellent. We also tried their salads and toasted ravioli, both of which we can definitelyrecommend.

Fairly good pizza with a great crispy thin crust.
They also have fried chicken.

Friendly service.

The wings & stuffed mushrooms were good, but the pizza was really good. It had a nice crisp crust which my wife really liked. I thought it was a little light on the sauce, but it was good, and plenty of cheese – we chose mozzarella tonight, but they have 4 options. Toppings were plentiful, and tasty.

The potato sounds were possibly the best I’ve ever eaten. Of course the pizza was divine as well. They also had crown candy ice cream on the night we were there. Not sure if they have it all the time but what a treat!

I ordered a pizza. It was my 1st time at the pizzeria. The toppings were delicious and fresh. Basil, mozzarella, tomato slices, a balsamic glaze, but the crust was the blandest dough I’ve ever been served. It had absolutely no flavor. Not even salt! I took home most of the pie, but honestly, I won’t eat it.

Old school St. Louis style pizzeria in the U City area with broasted chicken on the menu as well. We had a house special salad with house creamy garlic dressing, large cheese pizza, and Frank’s special pizza. This pizza is a thin cracker crust with a homemade tomato sauce and St Louis cheese combo. Nice atmosphere, hometown feel.

Long, long time neighborhood pizzeria. I just heard it was closing up permanently, so I guess not much point in writing a review now.

I grew up eating frank and helens. Went back while visiting over the holidays and not much has changed (except the restaurant is much brighter!). Still the old (kitchy) decor, and the pizza and chicken are just like I remember. Pizza can be a bit bland, but still enjoyable. The broasted chicken is great – crunchy outside, very moist inside. Toasted ravs were great! I live outside STL now, and these are better than I remember!
