Food was good. The restaurant/bar was nice. It was pretty chill. We had a nice time. We had to request the third bottle of champagne but we totally enjoyed ourselves and would recommend. read more

Drinks were very good ! The seafood macaroni and cheese and the fried rice I highly recommend. The lamb chops are okay just very small and not filling. Overall good service & Live Dj is also good and plays a good mix of everything. read more

By far the worst place in the city. The food was super expensive and they served box mashed potatoes on a $50 plate. My old fashion was a half of a cup. I'll never go back to this restaurant. And it smelt like funky weed the whole night. read more

Food: 7.9 Cocktails: 8.1 Service: 8.3 Vibe: 7.7 Spanish Octopus and Espresso Martini both a must. It was cool, low key, music was excellent, on the darker side with some led lights and interesting interior design. A good date spot but a little bit pricey. Worth a try for sure. read more

This was my first time visiting Frame and it was just decent. From a design/architecture standpoint it is wonderful and has a lot of great decorations and construction. The food, while limited and somewhat pricey, was delicious and unique. Overall Frame seems like a good place to come before a night out to get a quick bite to eat. Although there was almost no-one in the restaurant by the time my party and I arrived, the food still took a decent amount of time to come out. We got multiple small plates including the lamb chops, tuna tartare, and braised pork belly. All were delicious but were on the smaller side given the price point for each (around $20 each). As for entrees, they have something for everyone. From bronzino, to burgers, to ratatouille, they do cover most of the bases one would want when looking through a menu. I regret not taking pictures of the food because the plating was thoughtful and above average. All-in-all I would like to come back and give Frame another try. When my friends and I went it was the first week they had opened to the public and might have still been working out a few kinks. The manager told us they previously had only been open soft openings in the style of private parties in order. Give it a shot, it may impress you! read more

We had a resi for 6pm and the place was closed when we arrived. We had to knock and the hostess said we could wait inside "if we wanted" even though it was down pouring rain. While we were eating our appetizers, the hostess came out and snatched our menus despite us not being ready to order. Not only did the staff survey the place like big brother, they took our plates while we were finishing the last bite like vultures. Highly recommend skipping this place. read more

I came here for brunch last Sunday and got the meat lover's omelette and fried French toast. Everything was delicious, and the service was amazing from the start. Our host and server was extremely sweet. I definitely recommend getting the bottomless mimosas, it comes with your choice of cranberry, pineapple, or orange juice. The atmosphere is chill and they play great music to set the vibes. read more

I would give this place 0 stars if I could. Do not come to this place for New Years Eve. There was a big party hosted there for new years and we got there right when the event started. My group bought VIP tickets and when we asked them what we had access to, they were clueless. The upstairs bar was super tiny and very limited on drinks they could serve. We had to wait for them to close the restaurant so that we could go downstairs to the regular bar. One of the bartenders was very rude. My group stood at the bar for about 10 minutes letting everyone in front of us order. When it was my turn, a couple stepped up to the bar and she instantly tried to take their order. When I told her that we were here before them, all she said was " the man is trying to order" instead of apologizing. We stepped outside so our friend could take a smoke break. The manager came out, a guy in a velvet blazer , and told us that re entry was allowed, especially since we paid for an open bar. We came back and the event still had about 40 minutes left. The manager told us we couldn't come back in . We paid a 100 dollars for admission and were bewildered that the manager wasn't sticking to his word and didn't apologize either. This was a very bad experience. Poor service and staff who were clueless about the event they were holding. read more

I came here on memorial wknd Thursday to grab some food before a show. I made a reservation because that's just the times we're in and didn't wanna risk running into a crowd and having to wait. Got here at 7:30 and it was literally empty which was a shock to me. However, the place is nice and has a sexy vibe and intimate feel to it. I did notice a dj station so I'm not sure how the noise level is on a regular night or busy it can get. I'm not a fan of dj's in restaurants because it can really loud and obnoxious and I'm good. After I was seated by my server i ordered a drink, once i saw how much ice they packed in the glass i knew it was gonna be eh. To my surprise, it was a decent drink, However , it was NOT WORTH $25 . They included service and tax fees or some foolishness. I can assume that cuts into the servers tips because... why?! I didnt have an food as i decided to go elsewhere and have a bite to eat so I'm unable to speak to that. I doubt I'll come back here but the place was sexy though. Can't lie. read more

The two stars are for the food only, everybody at the table enjoyed their dish but all three of us agreed it was underwhelming. We had calamari, lamb, seafood scampi & shrimp fried rice. The real problem here is the service! I ordered no mushrooms in my shrimp fried rice. So I pulled my 2nd shrimp off the skewer & took a bite of my rice only to bite into a mushroom, I was grossed out but I was also hungry so I decided to just pick them out which became tedious.My server had gone MIA which was not okay but okay cause it's a busy Saturday night so I got the attention of the heavy set man in the wrinkled blazer pacing back and forth,who I assumed was the manager. He asked me what I wanted to do with no apology, I said please remake it without mushrooms. Then the server comes over after being MIA to tell me that the manager isn't taking the entree off my bill. AS IF I ASKED and if I still wanted it remade. Well DUH I came to eat! (I didn't say that) They bring me back a new bowl of rice with the SAME skewer of shrimp.Never got an apology I could have at least got my a fresh skewer of shrimp. The whole ordeal was tacky and for that reason I'll never be back. read more

Went upstairs to find a $14 baby pour into a plastic cup. This ain't crobar or limelight kids shape up.

For it to be the first time visiting this place and state as a whole, my friend and I were just casually walking down the street trying to find another place to go to once we found out the original place we planned on going to was closed. I believe we stumbled upon the owner I assume, and he suggested we come into Frame, once we went in the service was on point they clearly showed great customer service from the host allll the way up to bar and management!! If you go be sure to ask for Max at the bar!! The food was good, ambiance was real cute and a vibe, most def will be back to visit this place. read more

Love this place. Went to dinner here before , the food 10/10 Went here another time for a brunch and it was a vibe! The DJ was great, our server was sweet and the overall atmosphere is amazing. Will definitely celebrate brunch here again. read more

We went for brunch, the food was good. I loved the bar/lounge. The service was quick as well. It's small but very nice. I think as the place matures things will continually get better. Make sure to get the French toast. It was delicious. Oh and the fries were really good too. They have super thin fries. read more

It is such a cute spot for drinks and food. Even for a date night. The presentation of the food is really nice. And it also tastes good. They sometimes have a DJ which is a nice read more

Just bad food tacos where store bought taco shells from elpasos and the music was so loud you couldn't hear the people at your own table

Great food and amazing service! Live DJ with really good music. Its very clean too! Love it coming back

I TOOK MY WIFE THERE FOR MOTHERS DAY's dinner. Service was great, food was great, and comp is desert for Mother's Day.

Came here yesterday for Sunday Funday. Initially we booked dinner reservations but were told Sundays they only do brunch. We decided to just keep the reservations and try it out. The vibe check was great! And the music was on point (hip hop and R&B and pop). The drinks were fun and creative. They offer bottomless mimosas for $40 pp but we just opted to try some cocktails (espresso martini and mezcal margarita). The menu itself for brunch was very different from the dinner menu. It was way more casual and uninspired. I got the fried chicken tacos which weren't anything to write home about. My date got the burger which he said was really good. Overall I probably wouldn't do brunch here again but I would def stop in for cocktails and I still want to try the dinner! Also to note at night this turns into a lounge also with bottle service and there's a beautiful rooftop space they'll be opening soon! (Full reel-view on IG @everythinganythinganyone) read more

We visited Frame on our quick weekend trip to Philly. We sat at the bar because we didn't have a reservation. The restaurant is pretty small but we were comfortable as it wasn't packed . The food we had was really good, I had the fish tacos and my bf had the steak, eggs and French toast. All really good, would definitely visit again. read more

I was really surprised at how poorly this turned out. Very limited wine selection some of which they did not even have. When they brought my wife their Austrian Riesling, it was so bad that we thought it was a Chardonnay. The cheese board was fine but the spaghetti was not actually spaghetti. Just undercooked, bland, egg noodles. The final straw was that the service was quite poor. Among other issues, we could not get water refilled at any point in our meal despite asking multiple times and then were surprised when the bill came that a mandatory 22% gratuity had been added. This seems like more of a bar/nightspot then a restaurant. If that's what you are looking for, more power to you but if you are looking for a nice meal, this is not the place. read more

Great place for cocktails. Food 7.0, drinks 8.8, atmosphere 8.5, service 6.5, chairs 7.4, overall rating 7.7.

Great experience here. Wasn't crowded at all on a Thursday night. The roasted cauliflower was the star of the show w Brussels as a shining second. We only wished we would've been told how large the cauliflower was (an entire head of cauliflower) as we would have made that our entree as opposed to ordering more. read more

This was my first time going to Frame. I really was amazed by how much detail was presented in each and every dish. The amount of flavor in the food was outstanding. I would definitely recommend trying a bunch of the appetizers. My family and I really loved the ambiance too. The service was great and they were definitely on top of things. Overall if you are in the area you definitely need to give it a try. read more

spent $600 on a mother's day dinner only to be served salmon and filet mignon by people wearing nike sneakers and "anti social" brand tshirts. the prices didn't match the atmosphere. no masks, random guy on his phone sitting at the bar would hop in to help put food on the tables but no clue who he was, owner maybe? he touched his nose alot. NO SOAP IN THE BATHROOM, even worse is i went to use the restroom and there was an employee coming out of the restroom which means she DIDN'T WASH HER HANDS (sink was dry) gratuity was already included @ 22% 1000000/10 would NOT recommend read more

Overall, Excellent service! However, the food is subpar. The price and environment does not justify their pricing. If you come during the evening, the atmosphere becomes that of a lounge. read more

Frame is an interesting place. was I at a nightclub or out to dinner, I'm still not sure. the plastic chairs sent me. the drinks were actually pretty good. the food was decent- but WILDLY overpriced. the saving grace for all the overpriced food was the sauce, if not for that it would have been bad. the service was great, and our server seemed to be the only one working there. cant say i would go back here unless it was to have a good laugh. read more

Classy. Great service. Great food. Great DJ. The place where I take all of my friends to experience a great time!

My buddy and I visited from DC for my Birthday. The manager V was our server and took great care of us. The brunch experience was better than any brunches I had experienced in DC. Would definitely recommend! read more

Good food, watered drinks, good service, random dj. He was all over the place with the music choices & the music was so loud I couldn't think. read more

If I could give 0 stars, I would. Last night was my birthday and I decided to book two tables to accommodate my friends and I. I made my reservation on 11/4 but on 11/5 Frame made the decision to rent the place out for a private event. Instead of informing me about this, I had to walk up to Frame last night and be turned away along with my friends because Frame's lack of communication. The bouncer was kind but provided little help and when I requested to speak to the manager, I was surprised to see him smoking weed right next to me. He then proceeded to ignore me and only responded to my questions through the bouncer. It was the WORST experience I've ever had on my birthday and I highly suggest not booking any reservations with Frame. It was really disappointing because I called and emailed Frame multiple times before my reservation to ask questions but the calls went straight to voicemail and I never received any email responses. In fact, the manager who was 5ft away from me smoking a blunt lied and said that everyone who made reservations were contacted about their reservations being canceled. I looked through my emails and phone calls and NEVER received any calls, texts, or emails from Frame. While explaining this to the bouncer, he informed me that this wasn't the first time the restaurant made this mistake and has had several people deal with this horrible situation. I'm not surprised. Unfortunately, it was very late at night and I wasn't able to make reservations anywhere else so my birthday was ruined. Thanks a lot Frame. For your own good...please don't go to Frame it was classless and unaccommodating. read more

My first visit to Frame restaurant tonight was a wonderful unexpected pleasure. We arrived early at 6:30 and there was no one else in the restaurant at that time. So it was quiet. We had the shrimp and scallops in scampi sauce with garlic French toast appetizer, the dinner for two was the French chicken with wonderful mashed potatoes and perfectly done broccoli. Everything was absolutely delicious served hot and graciously. Then we decided to have bananas Foster for dessert and what a treat! I will definitely be going there again and recommend it highly. read more

I visited Frame Philly with a party of 12 for my stepdaughter's graduation from Saint Joseph University. The food was great! The drinks were great! The atmosphere was great! We had a ball!!!! read more

Booked the patio for brunch. The seat were damp and the overall seating was not conducive to an eating environment. My group was moved to the bar and even after asking if we could occupy numerous open tables, we were denied. A staff member informed that because of time restrictions, it was just not possible. Regardless, it did not make sense but no need to make a fuss. Our waitress was a bit unaware of the menu and came off a bit nervous - she may have been new. The food was ok and the menu seemed very limited. The French toast was very sweet and covered in syrup. Overall, it was a one and done for me. read more

Service is ok, food is meh for the price, wouldn't recommend but 2 additional stars for our server

Service was good but the food is average. The calamari was really good. The mushroom tacos were terrible. Everything else was mediocre.

I came to Frame for my birthday brunch. It was so much fun! The environment, music, and the service was great. If you go, you should ask if Vee can be your server! He took great care of us. read more

Personally, I think the menus you find online should always be updated so you are prepared with the choices. When we got here the menu was completely different which threw off our expectations. The menu was also unclear and did not the describe the food as presented. For instance, the stuffed mushroom was one giant impossible burger patty with a flatten oyster mushroom on the bottom. The scallop crudi was under seasoned and lacked acid. The "handmade" pasta was NOT handmade fresh spaghetti. I will say the salmon dish was the best as it was well portioned and well seasoned. I gave another star for the atmosphere which aesthetically pleasing and tastefully lit. The service was ok but it was obvious the waitress was nervous. Once it got busy our second round of drinks took too long and finally came once we finished our entrée. read more

Went for brunch, way too overpriced. Your paying for the vibes not the quality. Fried chicken tacos were literally a chicken tender in a flour taco, very bland. $40 for bottomless mimosas in tiny glasses, not worth it. Also only played beats for music, nothing to sing along to which didn't really match the whole vibe. read more
