Frankie’s NY Style Pizza & Pasta resumes service in Georgetown after months-long repairs from shopping center fire
Restaurant returns after closure tied to October 2024 fire damage
Frankie’s NY Style Pizza & Pasta has reopened in Georgetown following an extended closure that began in mid-October 2024, after a shopping center fire damaged the building. The restaurant is located at 1211 Leander Road and lists operating hours of 11 a.m.–9 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday, with the business closed on Mondays.
The reopening follows a renovation timeline that restaurant management previously anticipated would depend on construction and permitting. In early March 2025, management said repairs were expected to begin the week of March 10, with a goal of completing renovation work and required approvals in roughly two months. Subsequent updates in late March 2025 indicated renovation work had begun.
What the repair process involved
While specific details of the restoration scope have not been publicly itemized, the closure was tied to fire-related building damage and required rebuilding work before service could resume. In similar cases, reopening depends on a sequence that typically includes structural repairs, interior reconstruction, installation of kitchen and dining equipment, and final inspections tied to local permitting requirements.
For customers, the practical result is the return of a neighborhood dining option that had been offline since the fall of 2024 as the shopping center space was restored.

Why the reopening matters locally
Independent restaurants in fast-growing Williamson County often serve as long-tenured gathering places, and unplanned closures can reshape customer traffic patterns across nearby retail centers. A months-long interruption can also impact staffing continuity and vendor relationships, as operators manage repair timelines that can shift based on construction scheduling and regulatory review.
The return of Frankie’s adds to a broader set of business changes in the Georgetown area, where new openings and renovations have continued alongside occasional closures driven by property transactions, redevelopment, and unexpected events such as fires.
Reopenings after fire damage frequently hinge on the pace of reconstruction and final approvals—two factors that can extend well beyond the initial closure date.
As of Tuesday, Jan. 20, 2026, the restaurant is again listing regular service hours at its Leander Road address, marking the end of a closure that began in October 2024.
