The reviews reflect a generally positive sentiment regarding Frankie & Benny's approach to food allergies, with many customers praising the attentive and knowledgeable staff who provide a welcoming environment for those with dietary restrictions. Several reviews highlight experiences where staff members actively inquired about allergies and offered suitable meal options, making diners feel comfortable and valued. This level of service reinforces the restaurant's reputation as an accommodating choice for families navigating food allergies.

Numerous comments appreciated the thoroughness of the staff in addressing specific allergy needs, showcasing a commitment to ensuring safe dining experiences. Notable mentions of employees like Phoebe and Sophie underline the effectiveness of having knowledgeable staff who can empathize with guests’ concerns, enhancing overall dining satisfaction. For families with children, this support is particularly meaningful, as indicated by positive sentiments expressed by parents.

However, not all experiences were positive. A significant complaint centered around a family's struggle with gluten allergies, where poor communication and food safety protocols led to a serious issue. This resulted in a child suffering from a gluten reaction after being served food that was not fully safe, raising important questions about the restaurant's training and handling of allergies. The negative experience serves as a cautionary tale, highlighting the critical need for consistent adherence to allergen safety measures.

Ultimately, while the majority of reviews commend Frankie & Benny's for their allergy-aware service and accommodating atmosphere, the stark contrast of a detrimental experience reminds potential patrons to remain vigilant regarding allergy protocols. The establishment may need to enhance training and communication specifically concerning dietary restrictions to maintain their reputation and ensure the safety of all diners.
