The cocktails were delicious, every dish we tried was was so tasty and when we switched to wine, the delightful server was very helpful and guided us through choosing a bottle that I may not have chosen myself but that I very much enjoyed and was a nice compliment to our meal. This is a fantastic place. My only suggestion would be for them to turn the music down a little so guests don’t have to speak as loudly. It was not horribly loud but we had quite a boisterous group next to us and between them and the music, the volume in the room was higher than it needed to be. I will definitely be back though. This place is a gem.

I’ve only gone for their 1/2 price fondue - twice close together as the first experience was so good. The location is small so the seating is a bit awkward and not the most comfortable, and it’s a little too dark to read the menu, but these things are easily overlooked because of all of the pluses. Great place for a date night and a nice change from the other trendy 17th Ave menus. You should check it out!

I can’t believe Frenchie has been open this long and it was my first visit. Solid 5 stars! Special shout out to the Frenchie Gnocchi. Pillowy soft on the inside, beautiful crisp on the outside. A lovely take!

Admittedly I didn't have the food here, but came for some wine (including the wine flights) on a date and was not disappointed! Ambience was fantastic - super cozy and intimate. Our server was so prompt and super courteous. Gave us a great selection of wines and seemed quite informed about their different histories! Also, loved the Frenchie decor. 5/5

One of my favorite hangouts. Took a vendor for dinner from Montreal. He quite liked the location and the ambience. Reminded him of his home city. Great food and great energy. Very attentive staff. Kudos to the chef for making tasty and delicious menu items which are easy to share over a couple great cocktails.

Get the grilled cheese. That’s the best thing I have likely ever consumed. And champagne. Grilled cheese & champagne. There isn’t a better winning combo! Brought some friends from Edmonton and they were floored and how cool and quaint the restaurant was. Awesome experience.

Service was impeccable. Food was amazing. Really good value on Sundays for the 50% off cheese fondue. Drink selection/ wines / cocktails round the menu out quite well. Staff are quite knowledgeable about what wine pairs well with what you’re ordering/ helping with cheese board selections. We will definitely be back
