I would give 6 stars if I could! Highly recommend both for excellent food and wine but truly wonderful service! I made a mistake on our reservation and not only were they very welcoming and accommodating but they opened up Little Frenchie to give our group a better place to socialize and enjoy each other's company. Thank you very much for a wonderful evening with truly excellent service. The Frenchie's fondue is a delight, highly recommend with the apples on the side!

The fondue was very good, I recommend getting the side of baby potatoes! We also tried the Croque monsieur and they were delicious. The prawn and nduja brûlée was good but very salty. Deserts 10/10 we got the hazelnut cake and salted caramel. We sat at the bar and service could’ve been better, bartender was busy we understand, but he could’ve been more attentive. They have a big variety of wine which is nice.Overall the restaurant was great, good vibes, perfect for a romantic date!

Ok experience overall. Thought it'd be a bit bigger from online pix and really wanted more Frenchie decor. There's a large image upon arrival then nothing else, felt like the designers wanted to play off the popularity of the trend without actually commiting to a theme. Next let down, asked for a sancerre and was met with wine/ champagne tasting from same region, then a bright sauv blanc, then a fruity something... Settled on a nice chill dry french - not memorable enough to note but was tired of making requests. Don't come here for food! It's a pre dinner bevvie place or possibly a private event place (if they offer a different menu). I'd bring out of towners to look cool for an hour then split and go to a real dining experience. Our server was excellent!!! But omg owners - please let her not wear a Barret. It's forced and stereotypical. The pommes frites were great but avoid the putanesca toast. Overall, wish I didn't choose a memorable occasion to celebrate here but glad I know what it is. Could be cool... ? Maybe some currating is in order?

It was a great place to meet up with colleagues/ friends to enjoy some drinks & good food :) Happy with the drinks I ordered - 1) Happy hour champagne deal 2) violet hour . We all ordered a variety of items off the menu & I can say nobody was disappointed yum

This is a hidden gem right out of Europe. Tucked behind Una, frenchies looks like an authentic French bistro. Thursday is 1/2 wine mite-paired with fondue ( a decadent indulgence). Music, style, food, and services were really top drawer! It was a lovely spot to enjoy a beverage after work.

Wouldn't come here again. As the previous review said, the service was awful - specifically from the girl with the brown hair, after dealing with her at the door, we were about to leave but a male server brought us to a table and flipped the mood - drinks are good.

Such an authentic, cozy, and vintage-feeling space. Cheese fondue was to die for! Just wish there was more room between tables (had to keep my coat on my lap).

Girls night - we shared a bottle of white & 3 small plates. The potatoes & cream cheese (it has a more fancy name) was awesome, chips & onion dip good & chicken liver & skin thing meh.We also each got a cocktail later in the night. The violet hour - awesome cocktail imo.It cost a quite a lot but was a great experience.

Frenchie Wine Bar is hands down THE best speak easy experience in the city.We hosted a party there in mid November 2022 to celebrate me winning an award in my professional field.The ambiance is warm, inviting and very intimate with dim lights and a beautifully decorated bar space. There's adequate seating and standing room for a party of 20 - 25.You can order off the UNA pizza menu which made for an amazing spread for our guests and the wine, bubbly and cocktails were all sooooo delish.The best thing here is their service, from emails with the event manager to the staff on the night of, everything was amazing. They were organized, efficient, made each guest feel comfortable, played the music we wanted, boxed up leftovers so each guest had something to take home.On top of that, we settled the bill that night but our credit card company thought it was fraud so it didn't go through. They patiently waited a week to keep trying the card before I went back in person to pay. They were so gracious and encouraged us to come back another time.I have some family visiting soon and we are definitely going to Frenchie.Do yourself a favour and experience this hidden gem ASAP!
