I have eaten in many European based restaurants while living in Europe and here in the US. The quality of the ingredients used in making some of the dishes I've tried has always been very high. The service and ambiance are great so you can relax and enjoy your meal. I also found this restaurant to be very clean all the time!!! Very nice job Fromage! Hope to visit you again read more

So many things to say about this place: -They were one of the only restaurants in the area that wasn't blasting loud music and overflowing with college kids looking to party (which is a positive) -This place is quite small and we had to sit at the bar since they didn't have many tables -The service was good, when the wait staff actually spoke to us. We felt bad since there were only 2 men working for the whole restaurant. Hard to provide good service if you're understaffed. -The wine was good! I recommend this place if you want good charcuterie and wine. Very tasty! -The portions are pretty small so either don't come very hungry or get an appetizer! -The Nutella crepe was the most delicious thing I ate! Save room for dessert!! read more

Nice evening out. This place is always empty when we go by and we decided to give it a whirl. I've lunched there on my own a while back, but first time we've had dinner there. Atmosphere is lovely. There were only two other tables on a cold Friday night. We had tried to reserve online and it wouldn't work so we showed up without and were easily seated. The service was exemplary. He was very friendly, made recommendations. We had the appetizer sampler, choose 3, we had the arancini, mozzarello wrapped in prosciutto ( which was fried) and truffle fries. This was supposedly homemade, but tasted reheated and I disliked that the prosciutto being fried. The entrees were much better and we enjoyed beef stroganoff and shrimp scampi. We then enjoyed his recommendation of nutella crepe for dessert. read more

This place was amazing. The owner is really nice and she makes sure you are taking care of. I definitely had a great experience dining at this restaurant. read more

Fromage has a cozy atmosphere and good vibes for cheese and wine. Their cheese boards were good but I've definitely had better, same with the kale salad. Overall good place but I've had better charcuterie boards and share plates. Also wine was overpriced, they were selling $15 bottles of wine for $60. read more

We were served wine that had gone bad. Cheese looked and tasted like it was left out for a while, also looked like some pieces had been melted and then refrigerated... meatballs were both over and undercooked. Nothing was homemade, completely processed. The only thing good was the service.... because we were the only people in the restaurant. read more

cannot recommend this place enough! great food and drinks and even better vibes. Theo was our waiter and he was exceptional. we will definitely be back! read more

Really great food and ambience. This place is like a cute hidden gem in Southie. I think some of the food needed a little extra seasoning like the beef stroganoff and escargot but overall we had such a nice experience dining here. The baked Brie was a fun appetizer but needed something a little sweet to balance out the acidity from the fruit. Service was also great- we had a nice server. read more

I'm so surprised this place isn't busier on a Friday night! We had the best dinner experience and our waiter Teodor was exceptional. He gave us all the best recommendations and our food was so great - the appetizers especially, we got the escargot and baked Brie with lingonberry. The wine flights were a great experience and the banana foster for dessert. Will definitely be coming back! read more

Cons: Unfortunately, this restaurant didn't meet expectations. Marketed as a wine bar, our server was unknowledgeable about the wine list and every glass we tried tasted like the bottle had been opened awhile. Pros: The food was redeeming after our drink experience. We tried the Italian wedding soup, truffle kale salad, arancini, and the baked Brie with strawberry. All plates were flavorful, appropriate portions, and tasty. Lastly, the ambiance was amazing! Quiet and intimate. It wasn't packed and we weren't rushed. read more

The food is a 5+! Exceptional!!! The wine selection wasn't up to our tastes. The server William was excellent we will definitely return for the exceptional taste of the shrimp! read more

Really delicious food and wine, and pretty good service! When we got here for dinner on a Saturday night, the entire place was empty and we got seated right away. The wine flights offered 4 small wine glasses for $25 and there was a white, red, and rose set. To start off, we got the antipasto platter, which was amazing! We then followed with a bunch of apps to share and 2 entrees (also to share). The best apps we're the the pork belly, burrata plate, and calamari. The duck entree was also incredibly delicious. I would give this place 5 stars except the wait staff didn't seem to know much about the menu and the price was a bit too high for the food and drink (and location). But overall a good experience! read more

Our dinner at Fromage Wine Bar and Restaurant was simply a delight. We were originally looking for another restaurant, but accidentally walked into Fromage. How very fortunate! The surroundings were warm and welcoming even with social distancing. Our server was friendly and attentive, with a great sense of humor. My husband ordered the risotto with grilled chicken. The risotto was hot and creamy and the chicken, tender and well-seasoned was cooked perfectly. I ordered the Crepe Stroganoff with a side Caesar salad. The crepe was tender and generously filled with Fromage's signature beef stroganoff. The salad was perfectly proportioned and not overly dressed. Their Caesar dressing was surprisingly refreshing. It was much more like a vinaigrette than the usual heavy creamy Caesar dressing, and yet had all the flavor you'd expect. At the close of dinner we ordered two cappuccinos and they quickly came piping hot. My husband who likes his coffee hot was delighted. Honestly, it was a happy mistake that we had dinner at Fromage. We know how hard it can be to keep a restaurant going any time, let alone during COVID. This truly hit the spot. read more

I went to Fromage with a friend after it was highly recommended from colleagues and I think this was on of the worst dining experiences I've had in Boston. We started with the appetizer platter and baked Brie, which were both delicious. It took about 30 minutes to get our food. We then ordered the saffron risotto and gnocchi, this is where they lost us. It again took forever to get our food and the risotto was horrible. The chicken was over cooked and the risotto tasted like chlorine (cue childhood memories of a public pool). Gnocchi was good, not great. Wine was good, but we spent over two hours there, had slow service and mediocre food. In a city full of great Italian food, I'd go elsewhere. read more

Fromage Wine Bar and Restaurant - peach bellini - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Very trendy and way overpriced. Reservations are only taken on line. It was getting late so we waited and waited for a seat. Another couple waited as long as we did, and had reservations. They had no ginger ale. The food portions were small (and I don't eat big. The service could have been better. They had kitchen help and only two servers for the entire dining room. The food was just ok. I was still a little hungry when we left. We couldn't wait until we got out of Southie. read more

My boyfriend & I went to dine for the first time here and we had a delightful time. It was very quiet and it was just the two of us, since we went for a late lunch. We got the three-cheese platter for starters paired with a glass of rosé (I believe it was Rioja Bordon) to go along with it, as recommended by our server who was super friendly and professional. Followed by the Zesty Beet Salad for me and the Beef Stroganoff for my boyfriend -- both dishes were tasty and fresh. I rate my overall experience at Fromage 4 stars, despite the delicious dishes and amazing service, I didn't really like the interior and the vibe of the restaurant. Just a small subjective opinion! I would definitely come back and try more dishes from their menu (and order their cheese platter again!) read more

This definitely is becoming our favorite Wine and Cheese Bar. We were looking for a nice place for Friday dinner among friends and we came across this place in Yelp. This place has great reviews and after we tried this place we understood why!! The place was very nice. Ambiance was good. Staff was friendly and food and wine were GREAT!! They have many many wine and cheese selections. We pretty much loved everything we ordered....however, the highlight dishes are; the baked brie and plateaux delice (with truffle cheese....yummmm!). MUST TRY!! We strongly recommend this place for a date night, friend gathering or evening for a relaxing night out. read more

There's a large selection of wines and cheese, so you'll def find something to whet your appetite. My friend and I came on a Friday night around 7pm and the place was totally empty! By the time we left around 9pm, there were a couple more groups there, but really - you don't have to worry about a wait because it's a large space with PLENTY of seating. We ordered a cheese board with 3 cheeses, the Baked Brie, the crab cake, and the Arancini (rice and cheese balls). All were good, but short of amazing. And across the board, portion sizes were SMALL! The cheese board is very customizable - just let your waiter know what types of cheeses you like / dislike and you'll get some highly recommended options. The Baked Brie was super heavy on the preserves and more reminiscent of a danish than anything. The crab cake was decent, and not large enough! And the Arancini was also decent - its main purpose was honestly just to fill us up because all of the above were simply not enough. Overall - not a bad stop for some light eats and drinks, all the while avoiding the crowds! read more

The food was horrible, it tasted like frozen food that was warmed up. I found a fly frozen in the ice in my sangria which makes me question cleanliness in the kitchen. Staff made inappropriate jokes. It was expensive and I'm shocked they are in business. read more

This Friday I was walking around with a friend trying to find a place for dinner and all the gentrified newish places were so packed. So when we stumbled on Fromage we thought we would try it out. We got a couple small plates to share and dessert. I loved the risotto rice balls (I forgot the name) they were stuffed with mozzarella and deep fried. The chorizo and shrimp was really good also. The asparagus plate was under whelming. The creme brûlée was decent but not that good and the sugar topping was a little thick. Otherwise service was good and they had a good selection of wine and beer. read more

Fromage Wine Bar and Restaurant - Baked Brie and red wine flight - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

We were a bit hesitant walking in, since the place was empty, but clearly it's just a hidden gem! Food: We got the baked brie and the 5 cheese cheese monger tasting platter. The baked brie was lacking in brie so i would suggest skipping that, but the cheese plate more than made up for that. So good!! Our tasting plate had a triple creme French cheese, a Danish cheddar, a cloth Vermont cheddar, an Italian cheese with white truffle, and a blue cheese with honey. Drinks: I got a wine flight with a les violettes rose, a viogner/chenin blanc blend, a nobila chardonnay, and a nahe riesling. They were all delicious and the waitress was incredibly helpful in picking wines we would like. Service: Other reviews complained about the service, but the service was actually really great. Very friendly and knowledgeable. I'll definitely be coming back next time I'm in town! read more

Fromage Wine Bar and Restaurant - Cheese mongers delight!! - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

This place is fantastic! We stumbled in randomly just to have a glass of wine and ended up ordering a cheese plate and dessert. Hands down, the best cheese plate I've ever had (and I've had many). We ordered the Italian cheeses, which came with assorted fresh fruit. The truffle cheese was incredible and the fruit was fresh and full of flavor. We also had gelato- the pistachio was delicious. Overall I was extremely impressed pleasantly surprised. I've walked by and overlooked Fromage many times since they opened. We will definitely be back. Also of note, they have an excellent beer selection. The owner must be after my heart-- Duvel and Dales Pale Ale? Yes, please! Add Chimay white and I'll be there every day! read more

They open at 12. We had a 2:30 reservation. We arrive at 2:30 and they are closed! The lights were on and the sign on the door said open.... But the doors were locked and no one was there. Pretty upset about this. It was also a horribly rainy day so we were stuck out in the rain. read more

Had family visiting from canada and we couldn't decide on what to eat. Walking by saw that it was quaint and quiet unlike other restaurants on the street. I like to be able to have a conversation with who I'm having dinner with. I just have to say the owner Tatyana knows her wines and her menu. She was super friendly and i recommend this cute little place to anyone. Every thing we ate was amazing and i mean amazing that it has been three days since i visited this restaurant and I'm craving everything we ate read more

Fromage had been teasing us Southie residents for years before it finally opened a few months ago. Unfortunately, it hasn't quite lived up to everything I hoped and dreamed it would be (two years of waiting and speculation will do that to you). Service overall has been OK, but spotty at times. I've heard this from friends on various occasions as well. The food for me has been hit or miss -- the charcuterie options are high points on the menu and the staff is actually pretty knowledgeable about the products. Drinks wise, I was hoping for more craft beer as it was heavily advertised before the opening. I'm not typically a wine drinker but they have a ton of wine taps behind the bar, and the bartender seemed to know what he was talking about when it came to the various options and pairings. I still have pretty high hopes for Fromage and I'm sure will keep giving it chances every time I walk past hungry. read more

Fromage Wine Bar and Restaurant - "Firenze" on ciabatta - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

The first time I went to Fromage was for my 22nd birthday about 2 years ago, and ever since then I have been consistently going back. The inside does not appear to be much, 2000s Italian Kitchen decor vibe with deli like seats, however, this place is nothing less than the best. Today, my boyfriend and I came in but unfortunately 2 of their servers called out sick; leaving the manager, Tatyana, to run front of house AND back of house, by herself. She said it was takeout only, which we were going to do, until she said "have a seat, order whatever you want". We were shocked by her hospitality, but nonetheless felt welcomed and cared for. We ordered a bottle of the Chateau August's Bordeaux, a dry rose, which Tatyana kindly recommended. We thought it was delicious. For food, we ordered the Plateaux Delice, which came with assorted meats and cheeses, beautifully presented. We went on to order the Gambas al Ajillo, Arancchini, and french onion soup, all rating a 10/10. This place is like no other southie establishment. It is better. Come here for your girl dinner ;) , your date nights, or a long day after work needing a glass of great wine. They will take care of you!!! read more

One of the worst establishments I've ever been to. The "cheese platter" was 4 slices of the same kind of cheese and 3 crackers with a few grapes. It should have been a red flag to us when we were one of the only 2 tables in this entire place at 7 pm on a Thursday night but this was BAD. We got charged a $20 reservation fee becuase we made a reservation on open table (should be doing the restaurant a favor) and when we asked for an explanation the manager told us we needed to spend at least $50 per person at this restaurant. She told she was losing money by us being here. The cheese was bad and service was worse. Do not go here!!!!! read more

Fromage was an interesting place. It was fun to visit as it was within walking distance to my hotel, but I probably wouldn't go back. The experience was just "okay". I didn't feel wow'ed by the service, pricing, location, or the food, but it's worth a visit if you think their menu is going to appeal to you. PROS: -They do offer a happy hour pricing (half price small plates form 4PM to 6PM) and a cheaper lunch menu. This helps bring down their not-horrid prices even further. -The restaurant is very cute, and it has a small, classy atmosphere that seems very misplaced in Southie. The store-front seems fancy, and there are table and booth combinations inside the restaurant to choose from. -Their crepe was pretty good. It definitely had a nice, light desert taste to it - it clearly wasn't designed as a full meal, but it did still run over $10 just for the crepe. -Food presentation here is pretty nice. Food is served on nice, clean white plates with garnishes and attention to detail. You'll feel like you're receiving a high-end meal when the food is served. CONS: -Don't sit by the window. Not sure what it was, but there were a ton of bugs and flies buzzing around the window. Seems like a cute seat, but after they landed on our food and made those portions unedible, it wasn't so cute anymore. -We were one of two tables in the restaurant, but we had to wait a relatively long time for our checks - and didn't receive drink refills. It looks like the sole waiter was chatting up the kitchen staff without paying too much attention to the tables. When we gave our credit card to pay, it took an abnormally long time to get it back as well - again, with a nearly-empty restaurant. -They don't open until noon. This is relatively late for a restaurant that offers some breakfast-type dishes. -Their water isn't filtered. This is coming from an out-of-towner, but Boston's water tastes horrid. Some restaurants have offered filtered, but this one does not. -Bill wasn't cheap. It wasn't horrible, but it seemed relatively overpriced for the area that this restaurant was in. It was next door to a liquor store and some of the area seemed like old, closed businesses. read more
