Having built a following with its killer craft sandwiches before closing in its former home, Frankie and Wally’s is preparing to reopen as a reimagined concept: Frankie & Wally’s Gourmet Market & Deli. A recent plan review reveals the location: 216 Palermo Ave.
In its previous location, Frankie and Wally’s offered a craft sandwich menu that features cold choices like The Wally (your choice of artisanal bread with golden roasted turkey, muenster cheese, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, mayo, spicy mustard, oil & vinegar, salt & pepper) and The Frankie (your choice of artisanal bread with ham, salami, white American cheese, lettuce, tomato, mayo, spicy mustard, oil & vinegar, and salt & pepper). There were also hot sandwiches like the Key Rat (your choice of artisanal hoagie bread with a golden crispy chicken cutlet, American cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and mayo).
It’s not yet known what we can expect from the menu at the new location. It’s opening next to Ponce Circle Park, where it will join a community of restaurants that includes Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse, CVI.CHE 105, and Americana Kitchen.
Owner Wally Henriquez was not immediately available for comment on Tuesday, but What Now is awaiting further information on the opening.
