Great food and service. Unfortunately, felt a bit nickel and dimed in the end and don’t plan to be back. Extra charge for more bread and they ask for tip at the end. Only place we were charged more for bread and asked to tip during our stay in Paris. Would recommend only if money is no object.

Excellent service, very cozy atmosphere, food was good especially the starter's. Well balanced flavors and food presentation, but both of my main dishes were salty. The skate wing fish and rabbit.

On my fifth visit to Paris, I finally secured a booking at the Michelin-starred restaurant Frenchie, known for its intimate setting with only 20 seats. Despite the challenge of getting a reservation, the overall dining experience was mediocre.

Frenchie's unique surprise menu, where dishes are explained by the server as they're served, wasn't impressive at all.

The set menu included amuse-bouche, two appetizers, two main courses (one of which I couldn't eat due to personal preference), two desserts, and chocolate petit fours.

The service was exceptional, and the staff were fluent in English.

We enjoyed a bottle of Condrieu.

While it was an interesting experience, I felt satisfied to have checked Frenchie off my list after one visit.

Recently visited Paris and had a great dinner at frenchie ! The food and atmosphere were great. I also added the wine pairing which offered a great selection of quality wines to fit the food. With my wine pairing, however, I was asked if I wanted to start the meal with a glass of champagne, not realizing it was not included with the already pretty pricey pairing, and did not know until the check came that it was an additional fee, as well as additional fee for additional bread during the meal. Otherwise, it was a great night!

Fantastic food, service and atmosphere. Loved every moment. Skate was divine and wine pairings really made the experience better. Thank you for a wonderful evening

I can’t even begin to explain what an amazing experience dining here was.

The attention to detail, the flavor and quality of the dishes, the knowledge of every single one of the staff and the synergy to which they perform is out of this world.

Will come back every single time I visit Paris.

Period.

Some places.live up to the hype and some do not. This place absolutely does.
Small restaurant with 9-10 tables, was able to get a reservation online with a little persistence, definitely required keeping an eye when the reservation window opens.

The night we dined there it was a 100% American crowd of tourists, some clearly had no idea what the place was about, which was a shame.

Important to note that when we dined there, it was a blind tasting menu, in which they accommodated dietary restrictions.

The food was outstanding, the execution perfect, and with great creativity. The eggplant (3 ways if I recall) was perhaps the most memorable bite for me, with a crispy skin component and a warm fleshy component in 1 bite was awesome.

The service was absolutely fantastic. I find sometimes the service in Michelin starred restaurants to be too stuffy, formal, and even unpleasant. Not the case here, wait staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly courteous to all guests.

We dined in a few of Paris' top restaurants during our trip, and this was the best meal we had.
