Met with a friend at this restaurant which I hadn't been to since my mother moved out of Coral Gables, before Covid. had fond memories so this is where we went The room was as charming as I remembered. The service was efficient and cheerful, but best of all the food was delicious and I think at inappropriate price. I had the Coq au Vin; my friend had the Confit de Canard. We were very happy with our choices. Best of all and a welcome surprise was a dessert. I had the warm bread pudding, which was absolutely delicious but the crème brûlée was a complete surprise. It's a dessert I seldom order because it is rarely well prepared. This was perfection. A hint of a fruit flavor in the background the texture was light and fluffy, and the caramel glaze was not heavy, but perfect. A wonderful meal and the next time I'm in the Gables, I will stop in again read more

Working in the Gables for years and I never knew about this place. I was living under a rock! Frenchies is a cute and cozy restaurant. You feel tucked away in a little Paris. Their menu is amazing. They have something for everyone, but the must have is their French onion soup! Omg! Also, it's off the menu, buy their duck sandwich is a must try. The service was impeccable. I will be coming back for sure! read more

Tisk Tisk Tisk!! I expected way more from Frenchies. With all the great reviews, this Coral Gables staple turned out to be purely disappointing. We started with the mussels, and the broth was utterly FLAVORLESS. I had to resort to using the butter provided on the table, melting it with the mussel broth just to elevate the taste a tad--it was horrible. For the entrees, we ordered the steak and the roasted chicken. Both meals were incredibly bland--I could not believe they were trying to serve French food. The steak lacked any distinctive seasoning or marinade, and the roasted chicken was equally uninspired, missing the rich flavors one would expect from French cuisine. It was a complete waste of money and time! Given the hype and the high expectations set by the glowing reviews, the experience at Frenchies was a major letdown. This place clearly does not live up to its reputation, and I won't be returning. read more

I just have to say this place is one of coral gables's best gems. It's a small restaurant quite often full with locals. It's privately owned by a French man a who's just awesome, he makes you feel at home. The food is always great, it's a not your usual French restaurant menu it's an authentic menu that you would see in a restaurant a France, and always fresh. They have a good wine list as well for wine lovers. If yo want to make sure you can get a table make sure to call in for a reservation, if not get there right when they open as they get full quickly! read more

As little pricey but everything was great! Service, food, ambiance and location with plenty of convenience street parking everywhere.

Today was my first time at Frenchie's. I consider myself somewhat of a croque monster aficionado and, after numerous disappointments in Miami, wanted to see how they are here. They are, by far, the best BUT the owner is from France and knows authentic French food. Everything I saw on the plates of other diners looked fantastic. I will surely return and bring friends and family. The food is the real deal. Everything was excellent - food, service, cleanliness, professionalism. read more

We enjoyed a tasty dinner here on a Saturday night in January. The food was sublime. My husband and I started with the excellent French onion soup, which had a savory broth topped by a delicate, nutty Gruyère. Our daughter tried the soup du jour, a light and creamy celery root purée. We also had the pâté with fig jam, a delightful combination. For the entrees, we ordered the coq-au-vin, duck confit, and filet mignon au poivre. The chicken was as moist and creamy as butter with just a light taste of wine. The duck confit was also moist and tender. But I think my filet mignon was the best dish of the evening. The meat was perfectly cooked and accompanied by a luscious cream sauce with just enough pepper to add a subtle kick. "Subtle" is the word here; French food is not supposed to be spicy, salty, or drowning in booze. Prices were not cheap, but I thought the entrees were a good value. The steak was served with fries, sautéed carrots, and a light, tangy salad of mixed greens and green beans. The duck also came with a salad, and the chicken was served with mashed potatoes and carrots. We took home boxes of leftovers and some chocolate mousse for dessert. The restaurant is small with a cozy bistro vibe. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the place was so noisy I could only hear half of what he said. Still, I would happily go back to Frenchie's for the yummy food. read more

A small, authentic French spot in Coral Gables. We thoroughly enjoyed our food from the classic French onion soup to the escargots and my favorite the duck. Gilberto, our waiter, was patient with us as we had a couple questions about the menu. He provided fast, good service. It is on the pricier side but I think it's worth it. read more

We had a truly great meal & experience here. The food was great. The service was great. Kind of felt like we were in a Brasserie in Paris. We started off with a glass of Sancere each. We both had onion soup, I had beef Bourguignon & my other half had the croque Monsieur. For desert the most incredible decedent dark chocolate sea salt mousse. We got to chat with the owner. He was very nice. read more

I told my husband that I was craving beef bourguignon. I was so excited to find a restaurant near us . As you can see by the photo this is NOT beef bourguignon! It was a tasteless, bland braised meat with some bland sauce that DID NOT have red wine or pearl onions and the price was ridiculous. Sorry but not coming back . The server , Mario was very nice but the chef should look up Julia Child videos . read more

Brought me back home! If you're a French Canadian or like French Canadian food and culture, you should definitely stop by when you're in the area. By No means is this a high end restaurant, but it's as close to French Canadian authenticity as you're going to get here in Florida! read more

I hate writing a bad review of a place I expected to absolutely love, but this is a place you should absolutely skip. First, I LOVE French food and was excited there was one in the Gables that I had not tried yet. No surprise, when I arrive (along with two friends) we knew someone at nearly every table. As locals, I love when locals support. Although it was early in the night and less than 1/2 the tables seated, they insisted that our reservation for 3 ppl was to be sat at a tiny two-person table, with a third chair stuck in the very narrow aisle of where the waitstaff must pass as they run from kitchen to the dining room. Although we asked to be seated at a table for 3, they refused despite that our reservation was made over a week ago. As one might expect, the person who sat in the "extra" chair, was hit each and every time by waitstaff as they passed. Then the food. I was so excited, as I love everything listed on the menu. I ordered escargot and steak frites. Escargot was plain awful. Some of the worst I've every had. Steak frites was edible but overcooked for medium rare (which is how i asked it be cooked) but at $42/plate, should have been near perfection. My friend had French onion soup (without the bread) and the fish special. She ate it because she was starving but the entire time said it was underwhelming. The waitress asked her how her soup was, and when my friend said "just ok" the waitress blamed the taste on her choice to have her soup bread free. Wrong way to handle. Don't blame the guest for their food preferences. Our third friend enjoyed her filet but also hated dinner since she was the one who got banged in the back every time someone walked by. Skip this place, awful service and mediocre, overpriced food. read more

The only thing to consider when contemplating Frenchie's for lunch is the price. If you are prepared for a $50 (1 person) lunch, you are fine. Does anyone really need to spend $50 for lunch??? If you're thinking about a normal $20 lunch, DON'T GO TO FRENCHIE'S. read more

Although the onion soup was delicious and service was good, the evening was ruined by the next table hen party who was extremely loud and yelling through the evening. If you want a good quiet meal, this is not the place to go. read more

Simple and delicious family style dishes, well presented, and greatly prepared. Nothing pretentious. The type of "hole in the wall" you want to keep secret and bring only your good friends and family. Gabriel the owner, is a perfect host, his staff is warm and friendly and very professional. They truly make you feel like you are dining among friends. I am French and every time I feel a little nostalgic and homesick, I go visit Gabriel at Frenchie's and get a dose of good old heartwarming French home cooking. read more

This place is a hidden Gem! I had dinner here tonight with some friends who took me here, I'm from out of town. We started with the cheese and meat platter and fragua, followed by the lamb, steak frites and salmon with goncchi. The food was fantastic and very fresh. The salmon, steak, and lamb were cooked perfectly. Service was top shelf too! Next time I'm in town, I'll be back. read more

I haven't left a review in a long time but I had too after leaving this restaurant. The place is not as big and there were some empty tables so it wasn't at full capacity. We order the onion soup and bone marrow to start. It took 15 minutes to bring bread (which was cold and tasteless) then we waiting 50 minutes to get the appetizers. We noticed how the tables around us got appetizers, entree and dessert and we were still waiting for just soups. The waiters keep telling us 2 minutes every 15 minutes until 50 minutes passed and finally got the soups. The cheese was horrible, the broth tastes it like pure melted butter and to top it off wasn't even hot. Then the bone marrow was cut in 4 little pieces instead of just two long pieces. Never had seen bone marrow presented this way which was extremely hard to take out to eat. We took not even half of a teaspoon all together from the 4 pieces and half was just pure sea salt. Too expensive and not worth the $24. Then we finally got our entree the filet and the steak fritters. The filet was okay. The potatoes tasteless and the salad had a little dressing that was tasteless too. The steak was just as hard as a rock and it was medium. I could barely cut it with the steak knife. I ate two pieces and the taste was horrible like low grade meat - the most hard medium steak I have ever had. The salad had no dressing at all zero. I waited for any of the waiters to come and ask us how was everything but none never came so I couldn't even ask for dressing to at least eat the salad. I wanted to let him know I couldn't eat the steak but he never came. When he finally came to take the plates he saw I didn't ate anything ( same as the soup) but never even once asked us how was the food or everything he just proceeded to bring us the check. $220 for the worst food I have had in Miami in 20 years. We felt completely stolen with this type of service and food. We eat out every Friday, Saturday and Sunday and we try our best to try new restaurants every time but this was NOT worth it. read more

Few weeks ago, my friend and I came to this restaurant for lunch. When we entered, we were greeted right away. The waiter was really kind and explained the menu and told us about the Specials. He brought waters and little bread pieces with butter, which were delicious. We ended up ordering 2 French Onion Soups and a sandwich. I don't remember the name of the sandwich but when it came, it was HUGE. The soups came first though. I was starving so I began tearing up the soup right away. The melted cheese were amazing and I loved the little bread pieces inside the soup. After a while, I had to stop because I was really thirsty. I think the soup made me even thirstier because of the saltiness from cheese and broths. When the sandwich came, I only had a bite because I was already full. It was also a bit salty, so I ate some fries instead. Overall, the food was great, but too much sodium for me. The restaurant is really cute and the employees were nice. read more

Not much to look at from the outside but it's been around forever and there's a reason for that. Come early as it tends to get full quickly especially during lunch hour in the Gables. The menu is short, sweet and bursting with flavor. There are always incredible daily lunch specials to choose from as well. A bit on the expensive side, $29 for a tuna Niçoise salad but it is absolutely full of flavor and done with sushi grade seared tuna. Flavor is on point. And still amazing the following day (I had leftovers). I have also tried the goat cheese salad, the escargot, French onion soup and I recommend them all. Looking forward to trying the pâté next .... They serve it in a cute little coffee cup read more

Great food the best onion soup and mussels in Miami Service was excellent and easy parking

Frenchie's goes beyond fine French dining to a perfection. The atmosphere is cosy and comforting as if you are actually dining in France. Open for lunch and dinner friends, my wife, and self enjoyed the dinner scene outside. Service was excellent and attentive. My wife had the pork chop with salad garnish and I had the Duck Confit also with a salad garnish accompanied with a bold Cabernet Sauvignon. Frenchie's is perfect for any occasion. read more
