Frenchie Covent Garden in City of London, Westminster

Elegí Frenchie debido a la buena relación calidad-precio fijo menú, fuerte marca y ubicación cerca de Covent Garden. Desafortunadamente, después de nuestra experiencia es poco probable que recomendaría el restaurante a un amigo. Los entrantes estaban bien. Eran ligeramente agobiantes en comparación con otros menús pre-teatro en Londres (algunos de los cuales están a un precio ligeramente inferior) , pero los sabores de los platos eran decentes y estaban bien presentados. Llegaron nuestros platos fuertes y dos de nosotros (ordenando el bacalao y la panza de cerdo) pensamos que el nuestro venía con una salsa. Las salsas llegaron por separado, unos minutos después de que llegaran todos los platos, cuando ya estábamos a mitad del plato. Mencioné esto a nuestra servidora cuando se recogieron nuestros platos, diciendo que la salsa debía llegar con la red, pero no parecía demasiado preocupada por nuestra decepción. La red era agradable en general, pero el plato de bacalao no estaba tan caliente como debería haber estado a la llegada. Sin el jus desde el principio, el plato de cerdo comprendía un trozo de vientre de cerdo poco sazonado, aunque con una bonita piel crujiente, y un pequeño lado de puerros y manzanas que curiosamente no parecía agregar mucho. Una vez más, en comparación con otros menús pre-teatro que he probado (por ejemplo, Wild Honey, Café Murano) , los principales se presentaron bien pero carecían de profundidad de sabor. Pedimos otra ronda de bebidas al comienzo de nuestro plato principal. Después de haber preguntado varias veces dónde estaban, finalmente llegaron cuando casi habíamos terminado nuestros postres. El postre de banoffee estaba bien presentado y sabía bien, pero lamentablemente esto no fue suficiente para recuperar la comida para nosotros.

Already bee here various time through the years....time after.time i habe noticed the slow go down....especially for the service ,...the few people in the restaurant.....until tonight. Ready fir dinner ,after reservación and reservación comfirm.the day before.....arrived 5 minutes before.....Buy Door closed and light off. By by france

I won’t return and wouldn’t recommend this restaurant. On paper it’s all great but the actual experience was very hit and miss. I feel like a restaurant with a small menu should have honed the dishes but it wasn’t the case. It was such a disappointment. Positives: Great location. Nice decor. Cod brandade starter - loved it. Dessert was delicious (banoffee). Food presentation is lovely. The non alcoholic cocktails are lovely. Set menu price is very reasonable. Large bottle of sparkling water with complimentary refill, less than £4. Once seated, service was good. Negatives: Restaurant called the day before and once I confirmed my reservation they hung up without saying goodbye; I laughed it off but it was dismissive and rude. Absolutely no staff upstairs at all when we arrived at 12pm and we were left waiting with another 2 bookings before finally being seated. £28 for a glass of Meursault which wasn’t chilled. The food presentation was lovely but a lot of it lacked any flavour/seasoning (beetroot salad, pork belly, salsify tagliatelle). Food wasn’t particularly hot, I feel the salsify tagliatelle should be cooked a little softer if it’s mimicking pasta and the sauce should have some flavour, the pork belly was barely warm, skin was soft and not crispy. No salt and pepper on the tables. £9 for a tiny side of potatoes.

We were really looking forward to Christmas Eve dinner here, but things were really strange here. - Waitress we had seemed like she couldn’t care less. It was almost as if she was tired and not wanting to work even though our reservations were at 5:30 and it was the beginning of dinner service. - They only offered the Christmas menu. No other options. This information was not updated on their menu. - The food tasted above average. We ordered several scones (very good). My husband and son ordered the pork belly and monk fish and they shared their entrees. I’m not sure what was contaminated, but both of them got severely ill with watery diarrhea the next day all day. I was ok, but I didn’t eat the same food as I am vegetarian and ordered the salsify “pasta.” We traced back all of the food they both had and the only thing that was the same was the shared entrees at Frenchie. Be careful of what you order here.

After initially being met by a pleasant front of house staff member who apologised for not being able to seat us earlier due to the overrunning lunch service we were seated. To note the tables are close together so you are seated close to other diners. We waited……and waited and then managed to get the attention of a waitress who wasn’t that interested in taking our order and cut us off when we tried to confirm our order. She repeated our order which was wrong, we corrected her and awaited our meals from the set pre- theatre menu. In the mean time we asked what champagne was available - the response was just one - no detail etc provided so we asked for a drinks menu. The nibble was lovely and we then were waiting for 30 mins for our starters, we enquired were they were as we had a show to get to, the waiter advised he had checked……but wasn’t able to advise on when we would expect the dishes 😹 We were awaiting our starters ….instead our main dishes came out. We advised we were waiting for starters the waiter informed us that there were none on our order….we corrected him. There wasn’t really a response on how they planned to handle, or mains were out on the table and then starters arrived. Crab starter was inedible - pepper and other seasoning dumped on top with no flavouring to the dish , it was a mouthful of powder and bland paste. The main tagliatelle dish was inedible- just tasted of pepper, the diner next to us burnt her throat and was unable to eat anything else. We struck up conversation to confirm it wasn’t us and that the dish was inedible. We asked the staff if it was meant to taste of pepper - they confirmed the dish wasn’t right. We returned the dish and the pork belly was a nice replacement. They did bring two glasses of champagne however it was a chaotic experience. Initial waitress uninterested in listening to orders and getting them right, second waiter trying his best but not listening or resolving the issues, inedible food, lack of engagement from management when we were trying to explain that we just wanted what we ordered and to have it in the appropriate order and for it to be edible, a side dish never arrived and there was no explanation. We asked for a reduced bill due to the issues we had experienced. They tried to charge us for dishes that were inedible and food that never arrived. We asked asked again for those to be removed they then decided to add back in the drinks that hadn’t been included on the bill so it was then double the original bill price. I challenged this again as it was illogical to not charge us and then decided to add detail back in, they also tried to charge for tap water. I think to avoid any more discussions they gave us the meal complementary which was finally a nice gesture and recognised the issues we had had. We empathised as it had obviously been a challenging session due to overrunning lunch service however from other reviews seems to be regular disappointment. Avoid at all costs - go to the Chinese restaurant down the road

Very disappointing supper. The restaurant ambience was great, but the staff were aloof and genuinely uninterested. The food was basically strange and minimalist, we all left still feeling hungry. In summary incredibly limited menu, bizarre dishes some of which were generally vile. Sadly I cannot recommend this restaurant.

Just awful. The staff ranged from charmless to incompetent. Plates and cutlery plonked down on top of the menus. No attempt at politeness or conviviality. The menu has a limited choice which may indicate that the food on offer will be of the highest calibre. Unfortunately, the reality was a pretentious mixture of either disappointing, weird or horrible. And it all came in tiny overpriced portions. Oh no sorry ….the cheese gougeres and potatoes were good.

There was a group of eight of us, very excited we were going for a meal then the theatre. A couple from our group went there about 15 mins before and were told not to come back until the allocated time. When we all arrived we were taken to our tables and were given the menus. Two from our group had dietary requirements and the restaurant was called up on numerous occasions to check that they could cater for them. The waitress didn’t have a clue about what was what on the menu and took her about 15mins to come back with what the two dietary people could have. The menu itself isn’t very big, from the pre theatre menu to the main menu. Seven chose from the pre theatre menu and the dietary people only had one choice from each section. I chose from the main menu. I had the chicken in a brioche with the trimmings. When all the food arrived (which took such a long time, especially when we know we had a show to go to) the fish mains were cold and my chicken was cold. When asked about it the waitress said that they should be hot. She took the food back and we didn’t get our food again until 6.50pm. When our food was returned to us my chicken was half the size I was given before and the two other dishes didn’t even look like the ones they were given before. On returning the waitress then retracted and said that the fish is meant to be served cold (if that’s the case, state it on the menu) We had to eat it so quickly that to be honest couldn’t enjoy it. So disappointed with the service and after care they gave. No sorry or even come to the table to see if we needed anything else. Can’t say I would Recommend this establishment to anyone. Over price and service terrible for what you pay. We were nearly 2hrs there and the show was starting at 7.30pm.

We were served by a lady who had the most disgusting nails ever, chipped nail polish & all.....Not a great start of our experience. Portions are very small, and no red meat to chose from. We asked for bread with our main course & discovered on the bill that the 3 pieces of bread we got was charged 6 Pounds...... If you take Foie Gras from the 34 Pounds Menu, there is a 12 Pounds extra on bill, it is printed on menu but if you chose a menu you don't look for that. In that case make the menu more expensive. Then to top it all, they automatically charge you a pound for Charity, I asked to have it taken off, by principle........Just ask 1st! Experience was very disappointed & there are lots of other French places to chose from so no big deal.......Just lost time & money there!

Went for pre theatre meal. Nice set up and contrary to some other reviews service was very good. Food was the expected good quality. Downside was the house wine at £50 plus 15% service- also noted that service was taken on the £1 charity donation which was added to the bill! Seemed excessive, even for this part of London.

I visited Frenchie at the end of November on a Friday evening for dinner. A member of my party arrived early and was seated at the bar, she was handed a wine list (not a drinks menu) and had to wait a long time to even be acknowledged by the bar staff (let alone served). When we all arrived, we were seated near the door. This was very cold. There is no curtain or real divider between the waiting area and the restaurant so when the door was opened (or left open by other customers) there was a terrible draught. I had to ask at least twice for the wine menu and three times for a drink to be brought to one of my family members despite the drinks being brought out for everyone else on the table. It took the staff around 10-15 minutes to take our drinks order and, at the same time, our food order. She did not write any of this down which we thought was impressive until the main courses arrived without any of sides that we had ordered. Clearly the waitress had forgotten to send the sides order through to the kitchen. It took about another 5 minutes for the sides to arrive (at which point our food had been sat on our table for almost 10 minutes). The food was ok, it did not blow me away and, as we had had to wait for the sides to arrive, it was cold by the time we came to eat it. The puddings were tasty and probably a highlight of the otherwise dismal evening. When the bill came there were mistakes - there was a £27 glass of wine that had been added to the bill (we had ordered a bottle of completely different wine that was also on the bill) and the sides that had been delayed in being brought to our table were on the bill (despite being told by the waitress that they would be complimentary due to the delay). These items were removed from the bill but then a separate member of staff brought along the card machine and no one apologised for the error with the bill. In all, the service really let the restaurant down. Despite it being a Friday evening, the restaurant was not busy but a combination of being served by at least 4 waiting staff (meaning that no one really seemed to know what was going on) and the delay and lack of an apology from staff for their very poor service means I will not be returning.

Unfortunately I have to agree with many of the reviews on here that the only thing letting this restaurant down is the service. And one particular waitress who was so shockingly rude I genuinely couldn’t believe the arrogance on her. I’ll definitely be taking this further as I’m sure the owner would be mortified knowing how she’s treating customers. FYI she has brunette hair and a lip ring piercing. The food is absolutely delightful- 10/10, the bacon and maple syrup scones were one of the best things I have ever eaten! But I just can’t bring myself to be positive about Frenchie due to the rude waitress. There were 9 of us and we asked 4 times for a dessert wine menu, they forgot to bring out our puddings, the waitress made comments when we asked where our sides were ‘uhhh yeah I haven’t brought them out yet’ and to top it off she rolled her eyes at us and said ‘are they still here’. If I wasn’t with my work colleagues I would have dealt with her in a different way, but that’s another story. Anyway- if you want fabulous food give it a go but be aware of the shocking service you’ll receive

Really awful. Took a while to be seated after the time we had booked. Then took 15 minutes to be offered a drink . After we requested spoke to the sommelier who was brilliant. Beyond this food was really bad, I was served undercooked chicken and when we complained staff avoided us for the rest of the night. Really awful experience and very upset.

So disappointing! Totally disinterested staff. It went from bad to worse. It felt like the staff had all been told they were working their last shift. No one cared. Things were forgotten, service was rude and disjointed. We couldn’t wait to get out of there.

This lovely restaurant on lively Henrietta Street carries the baton from Frenchie's restaurant and their wine bar in Paris with distinction. The service is flawless, offering a warm and welcoming atmosphere that enhances the dining experience. We shared the Sunday lunch special of chicken stuffed with brioche, accompanied by celeriac in a delicious sauce, and crispy roast potatoes. We were given their signature dessert of banofee with nutmeg and caramelized pecans. The chicken, served with a rich jus dotted with ginger, was spectacular. Quite incredibly tender and succulent. The celeriac was marvelous, and the potatoes were perfect. The dessert was a sublime end to this fantastic lunch. It was just-right sweet, seductively creamy, and with a variety of textures. Hidden inside the globe was frozen banana. We loved this restaurant and recommend it without hesitation.

Such a shame as the potential for excellence is definitely there. The food was absolutely delicious and the decor/ambience inviting. However, our main courses were brought to the table barely warm which I suspect was a service issue rather than a problem with the kitchen. We toyed with soldiering on but (now regrettably) decided to send two out of the four back. Therefore the meal was disjointed - two of us finished whilst the other two were still waiting and the sides were then stone cold. There was a lack of communication once the wheels fell off which nearly spoilt the evening - no one took charge of the situation. This highlighted the already noted indifference of the waiting staff which could have otherwise been overlooked- generally a charmless, unhappy 'going through the motions' vibe was sensed. I note the previous comments on service. The restaurant was pretty full on a Friday night so perhaps the incentive to improve is just not there. I felt compelled to review as the flaws could so so easily put right and then all would be well.

We went for a pre-theatre meal - so an early 5.30pm table. The service from start to the bill was great, on point, polite and friendly. The set menu was short but the courses we chose were beautifully presented, timely and tasted great. The wine...

We ate here pre theatre on a cold wet October night. The staff were welcoming, attentive and polite. The food was excellent, we ate from the set menu, and in my opinion was reasonably priced. I would not hesitate to return or to recommend.

We were disappointed compared with previous visits. The set menu had only fish or pork and lacked a veggie option. And we felt that £9 extra for 2 potatoes which were really essential (and which should have been included by normal standards) was unreasonable; and...

Good food, no doubt. But small portions, and some heroic prices: a 37.5cl wine caraffe comes for 45 pounds. 15% service charge added by default to the bill.

Very disappointing. Service was terrible with the most rude, surly waitress. Really shoddy for such a high end restaurant. Food was ok but not memorable except for the delicious bread. Rather surprised to see £2:50 added to the bill for tap water. Will not be...

Three courses - Nibbles. Main, Desert - delicious food, nicely presented, if quite pricey. But the most disappointing aspect was the service. Our lifeless waitress didn't smile once. No apology when we asked why we waited 40 minutes for our main course. (It was due...

Although the food was great, the terrible service made this visit a bad experience. We were here for lunch and only 4 tables were occupied. But still the servants managed to ignore us. Even after we ordered the food, we had to ask twice if...

Left the restaurant feeling still very hungry after a starter and main, all for a tidy sum. Why serve frozen butter with the bread, why not clear the starter plates before delivering the main, just odd. Disappointed and underwhelmed.

I was lucky enough to have the 5 course Tasting Menu here. Normally I can never finish but here, I just about managed! Each course was exciting and perfectly presented. It would have been good to have at least one drink included. Service charge is...

Our expectations for this place were high after reading some reviews... Unfortunately experience was very average.. Value for money is not great.. We felt restaurant is too hyped and overpriced

I've been eating at Frenchie since it opened and hosted several birthday parties at the restaurant. Came for a quick business lunch today, sat outside, not sure what happened but the service was abysmal. For somewhere serving a £29 two course set lunch, the service...

Went for the pre theater menu. The food was good but there weren't a lot of options and the portions were on the small size. Overall there are better options out there.

This was our second visit, the first being 2017, and the service has gone down hill. We brought our own wine (for a corkage few - no problem) and the somm(?) that looked after us was on point. After talking about the wine we brought,...

We had the 3 course set menu and bacon scones as nibbles. We told the staff that we had to leave by 7 for the theatre and they made sure that service was speedy to allow this. The bacon scones were incredible. The 3 course...

VERY DISAPPOINTED!! BE FOREWARNED!!! Saw @gregorymarchand recently on @saturdaykitchen and was very impressed. Since recently having throat cancer my zeal for eating has greatly diminished but really wanted to try this restaurant. My partner made us reservations for today 16/8 but regrettably I woke poorly...

Fabulous food, very friendly staff but a slightly disjointed service. We had the pre- theatre fixed price menu at £34 for three courses. Excellent value for interesting, flavoursome and imaginative dishes. The ‘Frenchman in NY’ gin cocktail was delicious and the banoffee pudding was something...

Had lunch here yesterday before going to the theatre. Excellent value (for Covent Garden anyway) set lunch menu. We had three course plus a snack, a glass of wine and the lemonade mocktail plus service for just under £100. Great service all around and a...

Went here for lunch on a Sunday, and initial impressions were outstanding - in the beginning we had great service and the food was simply stunning - best I've had in ages. Unfortunately it all went downhill later on - not sure if it was...

Suggested to us by someone that lives in London. As mentioned in my other reviews, coming from Australia, our dollar is terrible (actually worse than terrible) and therefore I cannot comment on what is reasonable to high. Everything costs us so much more. Moving on...

Booked a week in advance at Frenchie to celebrate my sister’s birthday - she can over from Spain. We’ were offered a tiny table for 2 people, we were 3. The general manager had nothing else to offer us and although he apologised, was unable...

The food and drinks were delicious but the service was horrible. We ordered bread and nibbles which took 45 minutes to be delivered when we finally asked someone about it. Otherwise, we were never checked on and had to flag waiters down to order more...

Food is lovely but service is average to poor - not worth the money. Watch out for the “optional” service charge they add to the bill

We went pre-theatre, and they did a great job of serving us efficiently. They also had a nice pre-theatre menu. Service was good, food was delicious, portions were on the small side, but we were fine with that.

Disappointing menu the mackerel being the worst starter served The mussels were delicious how ever the man in courses were lacking of good choices pollocks not being a good main meal All friends struggled to find anything to eat of our choice realise it was...

The lunch menu is excellent value ,for delicious food , prepared with care , the sort that makes you feel happy and well nourished in every sense. I love the fact that there is a variety of seating , including the downstairs area where there...

Great service and outstanding food. I loved my bacon scones and my pollock main course. My friends were also very positive about their food.

excellent food, fantastic service and the wine was to die for ... there's a sommelier who'll suggest wines for you based on what you like and/or your food and their choices were spot on!!

It’s such a delightful place to eat. Music doesn’t drown out the chatter an food is beyond scrumptious. Eaten there many times with friends but the first time I remembered to review. The bistro is small, the staff are welcoming and look after you throughout....

The food here was delicious, the bacon scone to die for. The set lunch menu was a really reasonable price for the quality of the food. Would definitely visit again.

Good food marred by trash service. This is my 4th time visiting frenchie because I love the bacon scones and generally think that food is high quality. However, I will not be returning. The service has consistently let me down and when you’re paying over...

Food was delicious and service very good but I didn't understand as a single diner why the manager had to be asked if there was a table available for me. Place was at minimum a third to a half full. I often find it difficult...

Was recommended by a friend, so we booked a week in advance for lunch at Fr for GBP34 each. We added drinks and also added a bacon scone as a nibble which we heard was a signature dish of their restuarant. The food was excellent....

Lovely food and really nice staff. Had the three course set lunch, everything was delicious. Only thing i would change would be to give bread to customers, rather than charge over £5.

We met relatives from Australia at this superb restaurant for lunch, it was a memorable ocassion with the exquisite food and the superb location matching perfectly. We had a very friendly greeting on arrival, an attentive waiter who was a good balance of being attentive...

Apart from location, I can find little to recommend this restaurant. Food and wine are very expensive, and whilst passable certainly not worth paying Michelin Star prices for, with only a very small selection of choices. Service is perfunctory and a bit chaotic, lacking the...

Popped into this restaurant as we couldn't get into another one prior to attending at the Savoy theatre to see a show. We were really impressed with the restaurant. They managed to squeeze us in for food and we were provided with the set menu...

Im so sad! I loved this restaurant and last visited pre covid. I wish I had thought to check reviews before booking. Nearly £200 for two minuscule mains, a side, two (tiny) scones, and three slices of cheese. A few glasses of the cheaper wines....

My wife and I are on holiday to London and Paris, exploring the food culture these days as the world gets back to its old self from the covid times. Frenchie here in London is back on solid footing. The kitchen continues with excellent dining...

Disastrous experience, probably the worst value for money meal we've ever had, and we're regulars on the fine dining scene. Sommelier was good, friendly, passionate and wine tasting menu was decent, if unspectacular. Tasting menu was horrendous, which is disappointing but can perhaps put down...

Booked 2 weeks in advance. Set Lunch is at reasonable price, 3 courses are just £30+. Tasty french dishes and services is up to standard.

We had an amazing meal here yesterday. The food was absolutely delicious - every morsel was truly fabulous and we were all blown away by the variety and quality of the dishes. Extremely good value for money if you choose the set menu. The service...

We recently visited London for a show at the O2, but what to do beforehand? Frenchie at Covent Garden stood out straightaway whilst searching for a good lunch, it had belly pork on its set menu so it was a no brainer! We reserved a...

We had a very enjoyable meal here. The menu was short but had good choices, the wine list was long and probably a bit over the top and atmosphere was good. The seating at the bar was a nice touch for solo diners and couples....

I siting the city for a pre Xmas shopping trip we booked the Michelin stared Locatelli’s and Frenchie’s restaurants. Albeit Locatelli had the slight edge on “the experience “ factor Frenchie’s won hands down on everything else. Light, flavoursome menu served in the vibe of...

I've visited Frenchie in the past before lockdown but always for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed it. Food and atmosphere were brilliant. I was very excited to take my new partner there for dinner and it was very disappointing. Atmosphere was uninviting. The maple bacon scone...

Was after a decent lunch on a busy Saturday and happened on this nice restaurant, pricing was quite london, but food was good with very professional service. Yes, portions weren't big, but the quality more than made up for it.

Dined here with family. The staff was pompous and not particularly welcoming. The portions are microscopic and greatly overpriced for an overall average meal at best. An extra 5,5 quid for bread and butter! Are you kidding me? Also, the service charge is set at...

Booked a party of 4 with friends on a weekend London visit. We chose the taster menu which was served with good descriptive professionalism and was very tasty. The restaurant is smallish with a good ambiance and friendly staff. Though a trifle expensive the experience...

If your a fan of Frenchie in Paris skip this location, you will be disappointed. I have eaten at Frenchie in Paris many times and recommend it to friends and family often. I was very excited to try the Covent Garden location on a recent...

We visited Frenchie on Friday for an annual family meal. From the time we arrived until we left, service was excellent and all members of staff that we saw were pleasant, friendly and helpful. The menu was explained to us and we were delighted with...

Small restaurant with tables inches apart…even in non Covid times this would not have been a great dining experience. Food and service was good…. Just very uncomfortable about seating.

We went on business lunch. Interior is okay. We waited quite a lot to receive the food and the portions were…miniature. We had to laugh with our business guests over how small they were and order a lot of bread. The fish I had was...

Our first visit here and hopefully not the last. The food was superb, particularly the lamb belly which was outstanding. The service was impeccable even after I clumsily knocked over a glass of wine. Assistance appeared immediately and the spillage cleared. Great attitude from all...

I dined here with friends and found the service personnel were shirty. The food was mediocre. People were smoking in tables close to us outside a pet peeve of mine.

Third time at Frenchie. We had the set lunch menu and the food was superb. Lovely atmosphere. All staff were really friendly.

Very average restaurant! It was recommended to us by friends and we went there for lunch. Portions are tiny!! Super tiny dishes, the food quality is average and staff not friendly. We couldn’t wait to get out! The portions were super tiny and we left...

Visited over the May Day bank hols & thoroughly enjoyed it. Atmosphere is relaxed, staff very friendly, food awesome! Nibbles - bacon scones (my fav), parmesan gougères (Jess’ fav) Starters - lamb ragu pappardelle (oh my days! get it!) Mains - the turbot was epic,...

Frenchie was recommended to us by family who eats out in London and we understand why. This modern and young restaurant in Covent Garden served delicious food prepared in an artistic way. We had some "yummy" mixed starters and I had the Truffle Sabayon Agnolotti...

Very good tasting menu, varied wine menu and truly some surprising tastes. The service was excellent. I will definitely come back here.

First time here. Our friends had heard/read about it. Nice location in Covent Garden. As often in London they have seating upstairs and downstairs. We got downstairs… Which was OK with view to the kithchen but I do miss a bit Of the ambiance we...

This is a very casual but outstanding modern French restaurant. It is the best meal we have had in London including Michelin rated restaurants. We were handed the tasting and ala carte menus deciding on what to have when a manger or owner came by...

Amazing evening yesterday. Food and Service were both exceptional. Wine recommedation was perfect. Nothing to fault at this place. Would definitely recommend.

Although the food and ambience are good, they are altogether spoilt by the focus on extracting as much money from customers as possible without showing the true cost. Examples include an £8 supplement for the vegetarian option on a set menu, as well as a...

When you walk into Frenchie, you don’t expect such a relaxed atmosphere. The food was really really good. Some interesting flavours elevated the food. I would definitely recommend the bacon scones, Parmesan gourgeres, lamb ragu, sea bream carpaccio, pork loin. Couldn’t have dessert because we...

Food was beautiful to look at and to taste - balanced and subtle flavours, imaginative flavour combinations without being too odd. Staff were courteous, charming and helpful. Timing was perfect for our pre theatre dinner, we had plenty of time to enjoy our meal and...

Nice dining room but the tables are very close together which in time of Covid is a bit unnerving. Quite pricey but good wines and really interesting food.

Not a great evening ... rather a pretentious restaurant. Having had excellent meals at Mon Plaisir and The 10 Cases on previous nights this was a letdown. The menu was limited and food was just serviceable.

Disappointing service not helped by an aggressive and unhelpful maitre d. Portion sizes were small. We will not be returning.

Overall a very mixed evening. I had booked a table for 5.30pm as we were attending the opera at 7.30pm. I received the obligatory email about them requiring the table back at 7pm (really?). Anyway I turned up 5 mins early and went in. I...

We were there for dinner, the pinsa was very tasty and the service very nice to us. He recommended us a pinsa with cream and chocolate as dessert which was very good!! I also very liked the location, very modern

What to say, Frenchie keep teh standards hight and it will my remain my favourite. Well to to the team and I love the new cocktails.

I struggle to find one thing that is outstanding about the Frenchie. To start with the food… The bacon scone taste like a pecan cake with bacon and a lot of salt. A complex too sweet and too salty thing that is hard to say...

This was our first proper lunch and day out since restrictions eased. Frenchies was recommended to us and it is always good to try somewhere new. It is in a Good location for theatres with indoor and outdoor seating. To begin at the beginning with...

The set lunch menu was delicious and really good value. The staff were great, and there was a lovely atmosphere even on a quiet summers day.

This was our first time visiting Frenchie in Covent Garden and we will definitely be returning. The owner, Greg Marchand defines the restaurant as a modern french brasserie, both refined and relaxed. It was a wonderfully warm evening so we dined outside. Only a five...

Properly lovely food. We both had the 3 course set lunch menu, having all options between us. Beautifully presented, tasted amazing, nothing to fault. Service was impeccable and friendly. Great value overall. Even the toilets were nice. Excellent.

What can I say!? I had the seabream carpaccio to start, and the monkfish for main. The seabream in particular, accompanied by a few strawberries, chive sabayon and jalapeño was just mind-blowing. My partner had the lamb ragu for starter (amazing) and the duck breast...

Amazing food and lovely staff. I’ve been to Frenchie twice now (once for evening and once for the set lunch menu) and both times were equally enjoyable. Would recommend to anybody wanting a fine dining experience.

We were given a gift voucher which comprised 2 tasting menus with 2 wine pairings. We also took along our daughter, with the obvious understanding that we would pay for her tasting menu and any extras. Everything about Frenchie was excellent. Charming and attentive staff...

Mediocre food, unfriendly staff and poor wine pairing. My boyfriend had booked this for my 26th birthday and we were so excited for a fine dining experience after staying indoors for so long. When we came into the lobby, we were ignored by 2 members...
