   It’s so disappointing that Bar Frites has extensively curtailed its menu. Seems like they’ve cut about quarter of the dishes from the dinner menu, a lot of them French classics, like the foie gras mousse, frisée salad and omelette. Provençale pizza is gone too, sadly, as are the short rib sliders. Menu is just pretty basic now. They execute it competently and the service is usually attentive.

   Love Bar Frites. Food is always really good. Service is top notch. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

   Hamburger was raw. Size of hamburger was downsized and cost $25. Not even the size of a McDonald’s Quarter Pounder. Server after he delivered the food - disappeared. Noise was deafening. Have been going to Bar Frites for many years and have noticed a difference and not in a good way.

   The place was insanely crowded and loud. Why would they put a table for 2 right in the middle between 3 very large tables of teenage girls? But it’s not about that. It’s about my dinner arriving and within 2 minutes of the plate hitting the table I took my first bite which included a very long course hair wrapped around the fish on my fork. Obviously I sent it back. I did not make a scene. Then the manager came over and said these words to me that he has no idea how the hair could have gotten in my food because “everyone in the kitchen wears hats and no one has that color hair”. I asked what he meant by that but he would not elaborate. To me that implied he accused me of somehow planting my own hair inside my own food. To what end? We immediately paid the check (which was not comped) and will never return. Despicable.

   My husband and I ate at Bar Frites for a pre concert dinner. Everything was great from the service to the food. We’ll definitely be back again.

    Bar Frites has been a favorite of ours, for brunch, for a few years now. We especially like when we can sit outside. The food is great and many good choices. Today we had the French toast, our favorite! I must commend our server, Alvaro, who was so friendly and accommodating. It is a bit pricey but we like enough to keep going back.
