Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Chez Fred is a wonderful restaurant for a traditional French meal. The staff were charming and very friendly. The food was quite good and plates are substantial (so try to save room for the amazing cheese selection)! The restaurant’s interior is nostalgic and comfortable. Looking forward to another visit soon!"
"Visited for for a few days in France and wanted to try something where the locals eat. The service was wonderful and in particular one of the staff had an English menu just to support our order. I was very surprised as I have been in France a week and often just guess based on my very poor interpretation. I was not shunned or embarrassed for lack of fictional France rather they were happy to see us enjoying our meal. In addition they supported us with choices of drinks and even offered we try before which was just so lovely. The recommended white wine was delicious and beer too. We ordered two entrees and a main as we had already eaten late in the day. Therefore I can not give 5 stars for the food as we only sampled a few. However it was all delicious!"
"Been there for both lunch and dinner and absolutely love it. If you want authentic french bistro experience, this is it."
"I have eaten at this restaurant several times, always a great meal! I had the filet w pepper sauce and it was delicious. The cheese board is extensive, our server was a big help in selecting different types of food. The service was very efficient and courteous. Cozy quiet, not tourist loud. I recommend it."
"We had a wonderful time at Chez Fred! It’s a real French experience. The food was delicious…don’t miss the cheese!! The service was outstanding. The waiters, Thierry and Arnaud, were so fun and entertaining and also our kids had a blast!!"
"Outstanding meals. Flavour for days. Lovely authentic French Bostro. First time trying snails- I was worried- surprisingly good though!"
"A restaurant with a charming vibe. Matisse our server was courteous and attentive. She gladly explain the menu to us. The food was exquisite and the dessert recommendation was a hit. If you’re vegetarian the options are limited."
