My friend brought me here for my birthday, and it was such a lovely night! When you get to the spot, you'll be greeted by someone in the gallery space, where you can admire some of the art pieces. Once confirmed, you will be led through a hidden entranceway behind one of the portraits. The space itself was stylish - very cool and minimalistic. My friend got us a spot at the counter, which let us watch the chefs in action. The courses were all really well done and delicious. While some of the dishes were a little overpowering (specifically a bit too tart or salty), there were some standouts. I especially loved the Madai and Carrot courses, and my absolute favorite from the night was the Milk Bread. The service was outstanding, as expected. And to keep things interesting, they change up their menus every season. All in all, it was a great experience, and I'm definitely curious to try some of the other seasonal menus in the future. read more

WORTH THE HYPE. I love the art gallery and wish I spent more time there before/after the meal. I love the "secret door" that opens to the restaurant. I love all the decor, dish ware, bathroom soap, service, and all the different flavors that complemented each other. It reminded me of Alinea; you'll just have to see for yourself. One of my favorite restaurants ever. read more

4.5 but rounding up to 5 because of the the beautiful space and art gallery. I came here to celebrate my birthday and had an amazing time!!! The dishes were so unique and presented beautifully. My favorites were the artichoke donut with truffle and cuttlefish, but most of the dishes were delicious. My least favorite was the 36-month cheese dessert. I personally thought the cheese was too overpowering. Regardless, I would love to come back to try their different menus -- definitely recommend!!! read more

Easily one of the top 3 meals I've had in NYC. From start to finish, prepare to be wowed. The restaurant is sexy and elegant with perfect lighting. The service and hospitality is some of the best I've experienced. Then the star of the show, 10 courses of imaginative, creative and delicious food. Each course pushes the boundaries and makes you think outside of the box. Sitting at the bar and watching everything being prepared is better then a Broadway show! Every bite was fresh and full of flavor. I can't wait to go back one day and bring new first timers to this next level dining experience. read more

We came here for my partner's birthday for the 9 PM seating. Located behind an art gallery, everything is flawlessly executed from the moment you walk in. You get seated in the order that your party arrives. This tasting menu is ($198) a person with the option of a wine pairing. There's a ($135) and ($290) wine pairing. This was both of the best meals we have ever had. Beautiful presentations that were equally delicious. The Amberjack course was like art, so beautiful I did not want to eat it. Each piece was thought out, and combined made sense. The service was also the best we have had, with each team member genuinely enjoying explaining the courses and wine pairings. I highly recommend this place for date night, a celebration, or any excuse you have to dine here. We will definitely be back. read more

We decided to celebrate at Frevo. The food was very good. However our experience was hindered by the lack of consideration from the serving staff. We notified them that we can't drink 2 wine pairings since it's too much alcohol for us. We asked, like we did at many of the Michelin star restaurants we dined at around the world, to split one wine pairing. We offered to pay extra for being able to sip from two separate glasses of wine. The staff strongly refused. We were left with one wine pairing in which one of us drank from the wine glass and the other from a water cup. We came to a high end restaurant, willing to pay a lot for the food, experience, atmosphere. We were left angry and humiliated. The food was good. But how could one enjoy it in this circumstance?! When we left they explained that it is very hard for their waiters to regulate how much wine they pour and therefore it increases their cost. My advice, hire wait staff you can trust to cut the cost. And maybe don't shoot for the stars but open a taqueria. read more

Frevo - Fish dish - French Near Me - New York, New York

Very cool 14-seat speakeasy-style restaurant behind a small art gallery. Brazilian-owned, much of the staff is foreign, so it was hard for us to understand some of the dish explanations. However, service was truly excellent. It's worth checking out. The food was very good, modern and nicely designed. Heavy on the nut-based cream and we were very full even before the 3 dessert courses. Each course comes with its own silverware, which I thought was cool. They were also able to substitute dishes for kosher style. I didn't find the actual proteins of the dishes to be anything out of the ordinary. Some of the fish served had more value in the prep than in the fish itself. Some of these sauces were absolutely amazing. Emulsions and creams galore. They did a lot of grilling on a Japanese Yakitori grill, which provided excellent flavor and crunch to some dishes. All in all, we paid about $430 excluding gratuity and excluding the extras. The wine pairing add on cost about $150 which we declined. Instead we got a few glasses of wine, which were pricey ($34 for a glass of champagne). Beverages are excluded, so look out for that. read more

I'm a restaurant snob. Fortunate enough to have dined at some of the world's greatest restaurants, I know what superlative dining is. Hey, 71 years on this planet should count for something in this youth worshiping world. Frevo provided a Michelin starred experience on par with the best in the world. Skeptical at first, the gallery entrance a gimmick making me wary, but after the first couple of dishes I didn't give a rip about any gimmick. The food was amazing, the room sultry, music continental, and service polished. I was the only uncool thing in the space. Franco, the Brazilian chef, is a future star of the restaurant world. He can cook his ass off. The six course degustation menu was diverse, unique, and most importantly delicious. Some degustation menus in their search for innovation forget about taste (Alinea in Chicago), but not Frevo. I loved everything, with the Botan Ebi Prawn and the supplemental cheese course tied for first place. Often bar/counter dining can feel obtrusive, but Frevo allowed plenty of space between diners, and we felt very private. As the evening progressed, I became tipsy, emboldened by alcohol, great food, and a wonderful moment to be cherished. I hope my exclamations of joy weren't too loud. I am a passionate human being and have no linear restraints. Frevo was expensive, due to the supplemental items we ordered and my cocktails. If you are careful at Frevo, the bill will not become stratospheric. Frevo is a magnificent dining experience. read more

Amazing place. From entrance to end the culinary experience was outstanding. They get 5 stars doe food, service, knowledge and skill in all categories of what makes a restaurant great. My wife and I felt like we were treated to a special culinary and wine experience coupled with the ultimate in classiness, service and knowledge about all aspects is the food and wine served. It was a night to remember. We will be back kudos to the chefs and sommelier. Outstanding! read more

VIBES: Everyone waits together in the gallery space, then each party is seated by order of arrival. It's a nice way to make sure things aren't hectic, and that people are paced for dinner. Once you get inside, there is a long bar where you sit while the chefs prep and cook. It's darkly lit and not the best lighting if you want pictures, but romantic and quiet and intimate. So intimate, in fact, that my partner proposed during dinner and no one seemed to notice! It's a good middle between too quiet and too loud. SERVICE: Service was great, with attentive soms and chefs and servers. Occasionally a chef would explain a dish to us, while usually a server did. Also, my boyfriend secretly reached out to the restaurant to plan the proposal dessert, which was thoughtful of them. Sadly, they didn't let our friend come inside to take pictures, so he ended up waiting for an hour outside... and we ended up with no photos of the proposal. But it ended up being lowkey and quiet, which I prefer. DRINKS: We did the wine pairing. The sommelier explained each wine to us and tried to keep us on pace even as I fell behind. Mostly white wines. One was a Santorini wine that we had just drank during lunch at Milos, which was a cute coincidence. FOOD: Frevo is probably one of the best restaurants I've been to in the past year, including the fine dining restaurants I visited in Korea (aka not on my Yelp profile.) I've noticed that a lot of Asian-inspired fine dining can be too thick on the creativity and not pure enough, if that makes sense. All of the dishes at Frevo were amazing in that you could really taste each individual ingredient without any one being too overpowering. I'd say the only one I was meh on was the wagyu. Everything else was very fresh and truly delightful. read more

Every bite was simply stunning and the service was impeccable. Had the best, most memorable time!!

Not our favourite restaurant, unfortunately, as the restaurant itself was beautiful, but the food fell flat for us. To see a video experience of the night - https://youtu.be/pbbh6gETMSA This was our personal experience, as we know this restaurant has some amazing reviews, and it is a beautiful and fun restaurant. Unfortunately some of the dishes fell a bit flat and tasted one dimensional and lacked depth and flavour, while other dishes were quite fishy and unpleasant. We did love the lamb and the dessert, but most of the dishes didn't leave a lasting or positive impression. We don't want to take away from the restaurant experience, as the atmosphere itself was so fun! A beautiful speakeasy behind an art gallery and front row seating to the kitchen is definitely a wow factor. read more

I had dinner at Frevo in early October and had a phenomenal meal. I was initially wary of the speakeasy concept (I love speakeasies when done right but not when it's too gimmicky). I kept going back and forth between dining there and not but I'm glad I pushed through with our reservation. While I forgot to take a photo of the menu and could not remember every single dish, I do remember being impressed by each one. I think we had like 5-6 courses, which was pretty filling. I was so charmed that the staff was so engaged with us and took to heart my request of expediting our meal as we had a magic show to get to. The chef kept coming to us and giving us an update on when the next course was coming, and he made us feel very taken care of. They also made sure that my dietary restrictions were honored. Oh, and it doesn't hurt that the chef and staff are quite good-looking. read more

11/10 would recommend (only if you have the budget for it because it is $$$$). My boyfriend found Frevo and so generously made a reservation for us to celebrate our anniversary. He made a reservation for 6pm on a Tuesday night (they only do seating for 6pm and 9pm and I heard weekend reservations are pretty hard to come by). I absolutely love how "discreet" the restaurant front is - a gallery entrance! When you "open" one of the art pieces, you will walk into the restaurant itself - an intimate 18 seat in front of the counter space. You will then be seated and be presented with the pre-fixe menu. Oh, I forgot to mention you get to see the team prepare each dish too! The menu itself changes every month. We went in October and had the following: Tapioca: Kristal Caviar, Smoked Eel, Sake Live Maine Lobster: Curry Breton, Dill Santa Barbara Sea Urchin: Maritake, Fennel Maine Blue Fin Tuna: Coconut, Lime Caviar Octopus: Lardo, Iberian Chorizo, Red Pepper Wild Black Seabass: Chanterelles, Vin Jaune, Miso Long Island Duck: Pistachio, Sichuan Pepper, Lavendar Chocolate: Cocoa, Vanilla, Salted Caramel Vanilla Ice Cream: Mango, Passionfruit, Guava (this was complimentary and they gave it to us for our anniversary!) Honestly, all the food was *chef's kiss*. There was not one dish I didn't like. All the ingredients paired very well with each other. I love how they don't rush you at all and spaced out bringing out each dish and really let you enjoy and pace yourself. The service was also immaculate! Everyone knew what they were talking about and were extremely friendly. I definitely want to come back another month to try another menu! read more

Deserves a Michelin Star. Hidden gem and truly one of the best dining experiences I have had right from the start. Enter the restaurant through a mini art exhibit, giving speakeasy vibes. We sat at the chef counter though there were a few tables in the corners. Every dish of the tasting menu was well thought out and bursting with flavor. We had the regular wine pairing, which was very unique. Would definitely go again! read more

If I was reviewing just the food, I'd give Frevo 5 stars. The reason it is only 4 is due to the wine pairing. They have 2 choices, and we picked the cheaper one at $135. Of all the wines, we really only liked 2 and didn't finish most of them. A wine expert that I showed the list to called them "hipster wines" meant to impress with their obscureness. Having said that, the menu, service, and creativity was definitely Michelin quality. read more

Frevo - French Near Me - New York, New York

If you're looking for a unique experience, head over to Frevo where all the cool kids are dining. Hidden behind what seems to be a small art gallery on the bustling street of W 8th by NYU, you'll find Frevo, a beautiful speakeasy restaurant. Depending on the size of your party, you'll either be seated at the counter or walk past to one of two booths. Listen, you'll have to appreciate the dark evergreen walls embellished with gold hardware and DO NOT skip the trip the the bathroom! Regardless of where you're situated in the restaurant, you're in for a luxurious meal - oh yeahhhhh! Luckily, the only hard decisions that needed to be made for the rest of the night are a choice between only 2 dishes and if you wanted to include one additional signature dish. Listen, ALL the dishes were phenomenal. The ones that really left an impression on me were: - the salmon: the cute little bite-size taco had a nice crunch - the asparagus: whoa, you can sense how fresh those stalks were! - the langoustine: I truly was not expecting so much bits of meaty lobster hidden in my ravioli - the pistachio: the perfect way to end the meal & holding onto that true pistachio flavor I'm truly lucky to have amazing friends who took me out for my birthday. If you're looking to celebrate a special occasion, I'd highly recommend Frevo. The food was outstanding, the service was top notch & the decor was impeccable! Thank you for an amazing night out! :) read more

Had a six course meal. The concept, ambiance, service as well as the culinary aptitude was outstanding.

Interesting concept, but I think the concept is stronger than the food. I will have to respectfully disagree with whoever says Frevo is on its way to a Michelin star - they definitely still have some things to iron out. Frevo is a speakeasy restaurant that's hidden behind a painting in an art gallery. If only the art gallery were a little bigger! The restaurant itself was beautifully decorated. Navy blue walls, brass finishings, marble counter, dark wood shelves... you get the gist. Most of the seating is bar-top (about 4-5 pairs), with just a few tables. This way, you can watch the kitchen do their plating. Of the six course menu (with amuse bouches and a little cake pop bookending the meal), the calamari with cauliflower and the duck was my favorite. I liked the complexity of the smoked butter cauliflower purée, and the squid had just the right balance of tenderness and chew. The duck was served in a couple of different preparations and I enjoyed the morels. The hamachi and sole dishes were underwhelming. The hamachi had a grainy, cold texture, and perhaps could've used some acidity and/or crunch. The sole suffered from the same lack of variation and had a soft mushy texture throughout the dish. I did enjoy the wine pairing and the sommelier's knowledge, though I'm not sure that alone was sufficient to have me come back here. read more

Wow. Wow. Wowee. This place is really good. You walk into what looks like an art gallery and voila...1 of the paintings is a door to a hidden restaurant. There will be someone there to greet you, so no worries about figuring out which painting opens. It's a very intimate spot. It's basically like 1 long bar. I did notice a table for a group near the back. It was quiet, the service was excellent, the food incredible. If you have any dietary restrictions, let them know ahead of time and they'll accommodate. I'm a pescatarian and there was no problem substituting the meat course, just let them know when you make the reservation. Onto the food. This is a tasting menu, so I'm sure it changes up a bit. I won't go into a huge amount of detail here since the dishes may change. It's a 5 course tasting menu, you'll get an amuse bouche to start. They also offer wine pairing and a cheese plate. I went all out and did the wine pairing and we also got the cheese plate. All of the food was incredible. Every.bite. We had a Hummus and Quiona salad, followed by Lobster, Fluke, Halibut, my friend had Chicken while I had Scallops, closed out with a cheese plate and Dulche de Leche. Highly recommend. read more

Overall dining experience celebrating our anniversary at Frevo earned a 5 stars review. The decor and atmosphere were intimate and trendy. Service was first class and attentive, Chris and his team were attentive, engaging and friendly. Each dish was creative, beautiful and detailed. The mixed of ingredients were creative, full flavor profile with a few surprises in a good way. Flavors we didn't think would go with each other until your tongue and brain made the connection! Definitely worth the splurge for a special occasion. It was entertaining for us to watch the chefs in action! read more

This place can be a bit confusing to find, they put an art gallery up front and one of the doors takes you back to the food. I thought that was a nice touch. Be aware that they actually offer you the choice of still, sparkling or tap, but our server conveniently left it off the options when he asked and only the chef asked us if we wanted tap. The appetizer was a type of mousse quinoa salad, and it was very nicely done. There were crunchy pieces mixed within and the texture of the mousse paired quite beautifully with it. The next dish was the lobster which was the highlight of the night. The lobster had a nice, almost tomato like sauce on top of it and was paired with a lobster emulsion and potatoes underneath. This dish was beautifully made, though I thought the potatoes were a bit too salted in certain parts. Still, a top notch dish. The dish after was the truffles and it was alright. It came with brioche covered in truffle oil and that was a bit too overpowering. On the dish the egg and the spices end up covering up a lot of the taste of the truffle which was quite mild in comparison. It had the nice nutty and mushroom taste of a truffle but lacked that smell so characteristic of a good truffle. The next dish was halibut and fennel and that was probably the most disappointing dish of the night. The halibut tasted rather plain, although it was cooked well and had a nice crunchy texture at the bottom, with a taste reminiscent of a pecan pie. The fennel was alright, it was covered with a sauce that tasted like one of those ones from the Japanese curry boxes. The final main course was the duck, and while it was relatively simple, it was beautifully executed and tasted excellent. The textures were on point, the seasoning complimented the dish and really brought out the flavors of the duck, overall really well made. Things wrapped up with a dulce de leche dessert, which was delicious albeit very rich and sweet given the amount of dulce de leche. It had a nice crunchy piece on top, then a nice whipped cream followed by the dulce de leche and hazelnut spread and ice cream on the side. I enjoyed it though it can be very sweet so if you like dulce de leche and Nutella you'll probably love this. Overall a great meal, but outside of the lobster nothing really blew me away. read more

Mind. Blown. Being one of those ppl who have been to almost every dope spot in nyc I have to say frevo lives up to it hype. Interior is gorg. The fun of walking behind a painting to get to the resto, also a vibe. 10 courses w 2 optional wine menu parings. Everything was perfection. Reservations open the 1st of the month with seatings at 6 & 9pm. We were lucky because we were able to get something for the same week. Such a great bday celebration! read more

Back in May, I was able to try their takeout meal from Frevo at Home, which was such an experience. Now that limited indoor dining is open, I had the opportunity to get the full FREVO experience. Discreetly and so creatively, the restaurant is actually located behind a painting in an art gallery in Greenwich Village. You're first greeted by the hostess, where she then reveals the entrance to the restaurant by swinging open the painting. We were greeted by the friendly team, and because it is a counter space, you get to see the team prepare each dish and interact with them. We were treated with the amuse bouches, followed by the six-service menu. The menu changes every month and serves seasonal ingredients, so it is interesting to see how ingredients are used to craft the meal! Every bite was a pleasant surprise and left us wanting more. Aside from the food, the ambiance is also truly worth noting. The music, the lights, the air of friendliness makes you forget the fact that this is one of the busiest and most energetic cities in the world. At FREVO, you feel so comfortable and at ease, which I loved. Would highly recommend FREVO to anyone looking for a whole-rounded dining journey beyond expectations. read more

Cool, smooth, polished and delicious! 5 stars - something new and fresh, even for veterans of tasting menus and Michelin Star dining. We entered through the brightly lit art gallery where the hostess, who could pass for Zendaya's sister, welcomed us warmly. After a few minutes a hidden door swung open and we were shuttled into the restaurant which has a cozy, trendy vibe. There are only 16 counter seats and two tables and we really appreciated being able to see the chefs prepare each course. Service from start to finish was warm, professional and efficient. The chefs not only cook your dishes but present them to you and explain each course. The food was excellent, novel and surprising! My favorite dishes came in the first half of the tasting. A highlight was the amberjack with jalapeno gazpacho and fried curry leaves. Delicate fish, crunchy fragrant curry leaves and a subtle, rich creamy jalapeno gazpacho - so different from anything I've ever had. The second course was a two parter with wood ear mushroom, satay and salty iberico ham paired with a lobster, coconut, makrut lime foam. Light but rich, perfectly cooked lobster with a hint of sourness from the lime make the dish pop. The 3rd course was naan with tofu and shabazi. It doesn't sound very exciting but the homemade naan was delicious and the tofu and shabazi spread was so creamy and delicate, like the best cream cheese you've ever had! The protein courses (scallop, madai and zabuton wagyu) were all cooked perfectly and paired with rich accompaniments (sunchoke, koshihikari risotto, maitake). The madai was grilled on a Japanese barbeque and had a nice smoky flavor. It's so fun to watch everyone in the restaurant work with such precision and efficiency. Dessert was incredible -- chocolate, porcini mushroom and wasabi ice cream. It sounds weird, especially the wasabi ice cream, but it all works and is memorable. The meal was closed with some petit four and a copy of our menu enclosed in a mini print of one of the art pieces from the gallery. Very cool! Their menu is constantly changing but we were advised a completely new menu is rolled out each quarter. We definitely will be back! read more

Frevo - French Near Me - New York, New York

Frevo is a small restaurant with counter top seating within an art gallery; it is definitely considered fine dining and exudes an intimate ambiance. The best part of this experience is watching the chefs prepare everything from the start to the end. The opening small bites were delicious and my boyfriend also really enjoyed the squash soup. What was also a highlight is the quail dish along with the dessert with a hidden caramel sauce tucked underneath. The overall meal was very good but the remaining dishes I didn't mention felt either unmemorable or one noted. That's not to say it wasn't good, it just means it didn't blow my mind. The round ball looking dessert is also pretty bland with only a slight sweetness from the cake at the bottom. That said, there's definitely a lot of potential for Frevo to become great. I also feel the chefs should try to be more personable and social given the counter top seating with the diners but that's just me. read more

If you have a controlled sodium intake diet this isn't the place for you. We arrived first yet we were seated later on in the worst seat with the speakers blaring. Kindly asked to switch seating and was able to get a open kitchen facing seat in the center of the bar. The pour of wine is very stingy. Each plate from start to where we decided to end our meal was beyond salty. So salty my throat and tongue was numb. Now for the worst of it all.... The cooks have stainless steel containers on their counters and they use and reuse the same spoons to stir, taste, plate and serve. All 5-6 cooks just grab the same used spoons to slurp, stir and plate. The wave of nausea came over me when I saw this happening. So if you need to keep your blood pressure at a healthy level and you like to not consume everyone's mouth germs in your food then avoid at all costs and the cost is not cheap. read more

Frevo is a special place. We have been here twice, and both visits were 10/10 amazing. Chef Franco is a creative and you sense it, taste it, savor it from the first bite to the last. My favorite bites are always the openers, in our two visits I remember standout ingredients from the sea - uni, lobster, kelp, caviar, fluke, foie gras... well foie gras is not from the sea but always deserves a shout out none the less. The presentation of each dish is delivered with delicacy as if each course is an invaluable gift. We are just as enamored with the glassware and the plating as we are with the food. And everyone there is so nice and down to earth. It is an elevated space but there is no air of pretension. It feels like such a warm and comfortable, space. Oh and the wine, we have enjoyed some delightful French wines while visiting and the sommelier is so sensible and knowledgeable- happy to assist in helping you choose a bottle or two for the night. When someone asks what my favorite meal is in NYC, the answer now is always Frevo. read more

The dishes they serve are art. So beautiful and flavorful at the same time. And the ambient is excellent. I cannot wait to go back.

Waiting to travel, enjoy the best cuisine, or any experience for that matter until you're entangled in a relationship is just wasting the limited precious time you have. That time is finite, at least until we develop Altered Carbon. One aspect I admire & follow from the leaders I seek to emulate they always carve their own path even when solo. In fact, a large amount of data exists that demonstrates that being successfully independent, happy, at peace, outside the constructs of a relationship will yield a far more successful partnership when one decides to pursue it. It took me too long to realize this. Now I regularly practice self-dates that include all sorts of variety. I value peace over chaos. So when I came across a concept that merges cuisine and modern art at the @michelinguide Michelin Star level I had to experience it, to feel it. @frevonyc in Manhattan from Brazilian chef Franco Sampogna and Portuguese restaurateur Bernardo Silva absolutely blew my mind. It felt like I was dining in an exclusive underground room at the Moma. The food was exquisite, and perfectly paired with the best compliments of wine I've had from a sommelier. I'd list the entire fixed price journey of tastes but I included a picture of the menu this time. This spot is a true gem my friends. It was the perfect self date! Perfect flavors! Most importantly, your take away from this, never wait to live, ever! You could die today. Now I need to find those wines here in Vegas. read more

3.5/5 stars more accurately but more notable to round up. 7 out of 10 scale. Concept is super cool and ambiance is like a romantic Art Deco type of vibes. Food was good but just not spectacular if you're comparing it to many other fine dining restaurants. People who said they'll be on a way to a Michelin star, honestly disagree coming from someone who's been to countless of Michelin starred restaurants. In my opinion, don't think it's a Michelin Star quality, but still solid food and experience nonetheless so I do recommend worth checking out once. Value of the meal for what you get is just alright, price for what you're paying to the portions and quality you actually get isn't on par compared to other Michelin star place that are at this same price point (very small serving, slightly above decent in quality/technique/taste). However the wine pairing was amazing, truly did brought out the dish so well! Dishes out of the small 8 courses that I did love that I thought worked nicely: Caviar with tuna on nori crisp, below oyster with raw beef, sea urchin with razor clam & mussel, & especially the scallop dish with the salsify brown butter sauce topped with truffle for additional $40. Also the açaí with white chocolate mousse cream and buckwheat crisp was so great! Dishes I wasn't crazy about: The pre supplement choice before your dessert course: a shaved 36month aged manchego cheese with honey drizzle and honey Icecream. The cheese was sooo salty, it's great with truffle honey but there was way too much of the cheese and wayy too skimpy on the honey ice cream and truffle honey drizzle. My partner and I didn't think it was worth the $30 supplement for this dish. Al read more

Frevo exceeded my expectations. My boyfriend and I went for dinner on Sat at 6pm - they have two nightly seatings (6pm, 9pm). The entrance to the restaurant has a wow factor, but that is only one of very many you'll experience. Service was incredible and the open kitchen format was fascinating to watch. Not only were the servers friendly, but the level of attentiveness was exactly what you would expect for high end dining. From refilling water, to explaining each dish - the dinner was excellently executed. The food is experimental, which can be a hit or miss for a lot of people, but Frevo does each dish exceptionally. The flavors are deep and intricate and the add-ons, usually not always worth it on a tasting menu, were all worth it at Frevo. Despite my disinterest in chicken, my favorite dish of the night was their main chicken dish. It came prepared three ways - chicken breast, chicken liver ravioli, and chicken skin. These were prepared in a squid ink sauce. I usually hate chicken breast.... however, chicken breast was breathtaking. I'm still thinking about it. Some other food highlights: caviar to start (obviously), lobster, gruyère dessert (this is unique and insane). The sommelier was incredibly helpful finding the right wines for us and answered any questions we had. This was a special meal, and with the quarterly rotating menu, we'll definitely be back. read more

The entrance was the coolest part of this dining experience. Thought the food was mediocre to say the least, and the juice pairings did not align with the food at all and came served at random times instead of the transitions per se. The venue itself was EXTREMELY HOT, and with an open kitchen like that you are going to boil up in no time. A/C finally got turned on towards the very end of the meal. Did not understand the selling point of their menu/restaurant - which was the asparagus. I mean... it's asparagus and honestly tasted overcooked. read more
