Food as usual exceptional. Had to ask for menus, refill on water, bread... Shouldn't have to ask for these things at a restaurant of this quality. It was a special occasion and it was not acknowledged by the waiter
Food is always reliably delicious. Annette was our server, and although she was pretty busy that evening, she served us with personal attention and friendly courtesy. We really enjoy dining at Froggy's!
Wonderful restaurant to have a dinner with your wife and friends. Food is good, ambience terrific, and service terrific.
Although our experience there was very pleasant, the bathrooms could use a bit of sprucing. It was very odorous toward the end of the evening. The service was very good and as usual, your food was excellent.
Amazingly, you always find something incredible when exploring places. This Gourmet French Restaurant has tasty appetizers and entrées. As you get in, you can listen to a guitarist playing lovely music. The beautiful arrangement inside is best for special occasions or celebrations.Highly recommended.✨✅🎉

Wonderful dining experience all the way around from the drinks to food to desserts. We had a fantastic server whose name escapes me, but he was warm and funny with just the right amount of attentiveness. We will be back for sure!!
A wonderful French Bistro with many traditional French dishes and French inspired dishes. The service and service were very nice. The decor had a great French theme and conversation friendly as the room filled.

We love this place. The guitar player/singer was a great addition and he was at a perfect volume.
Service was spectacular. Peter is the best waiter we have ever had. Food was excellent. One of our favorite restaurants!
My wife and I had dinner at Froggy’s this past week. This was our first visit, and expectations were high. At first impression, we were surprised at the dingy, dark decor and outdated atmosphere. All staff were friendly and knowledgeable, but empty glasses weren’t removed and additional bread wasn’t offered. We shared an appetizer, however, no clean plates we placed to share it. We had to use the small bread plates. I liked that our food was served on warmed plates. The mushroom ravioli had a really nice sauce. The house salad consisted of two ingredients, a dehydrated, inedible, beet slice and some greens. I enjoyed the dressing. Perhaps the beet was refrigerated too long. My whitefish was over-cooked and extremely salty. My wife commented that her shrimp linguine had no flavor. We ordered a couple of mocktails. They weren’t freshly-made, but rather a bottled white tea beverage. In the drink’s description, there is no mention that it’s a white tea-based beverage with caffeine. There seems to be focus on artistic food presentation, rather on flavor. It’s not 1985. We left without ordering dessert and chalked this one up to not doing my research. Take a look at the photos of entrees on line. You’ll repeatedly see mashed potatoes with a tomato, a carrot, zucchini, and broccoli. Zero creativity.

Froggy's is our "go to" restaurant for special occasions, great food perfectly prepared, outstanding service from Rodrigo (and even his current "trainee"), reasonable prices (except for the new wine list), an authentically Parisian ambience, and one of the few high-end North Shore restaurants where you can still hear others at your own table. Every experience at Froggy's is sheer delight.
Our dinner was wonderful. The zucchini flower appetizer was a new taste delight. Chef visited our table a few times just to check on us. This restaurant is a jewel of the North Shore.
We chose Froggy's for our wedding and we couldn’t be happier! Thierry, the owner, is an absolute professional—clear, consistent, and incredibly easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. He runs a smooth, seamless operation; if there were any hiccups, we never knew about them. Thierry worked with our price points without compromising on quality, and our guests raved about both the food and the service. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. Highly recommend Froggy's for any event!

Overall, our dining experience was decent. Nothing was terrible, however it was not as good as I had heard, expected, nor remembered (it has been over a decade since I dined here, and I now remember why I do not return on a regular basis). Our server was very good, however he was put in a difficult situation as the kitchen was running behind as they had a larger party to care for.... they should have been better prepared. Yet he did his best to provide us that which we asked whilst we waited. The food was fine, just not great. The salad is very good and nicely dressed, the fish was a bit dry (fortunately the sauce helped), and the steak was unevenly cooked. The ambience seems a bit dingy/dusty... not as vibrant as I had remembered. And the prices were fine, but the food was just nothing special.... the recipes are probably wonderful, it was the preparation and quality that was lacking. I would dine here again if someone else really loves it, but otherwise, we will seek out another establishment for French cuisine.

My wife and I celebrated our 7th yr anniversary with a simple, casual lunch. With Froggy’s being aware of our special day, they elevated their game and made our lunch experience unforgettable. Thanks crew, you’re top tier in the industry.
