About Frenchie

At the Paris end of Collins Street, Frenchie pulls off a neat trick—every plate and cocktail sits at a flat $14. Diners pack the dim room for supper-club energy minus fine-dining bill shock. Dishes arrive in fast waves, built for sharing across small tables: baguette with smoked butter, seared tuna, steak tartare, and crisp frites. Floor staff keep the room humming, wheeling a roving trolley between tables to serve caviar and champagne.

  • Uniform $14 Flat Pricing: Small plates and mixed drinks sit at a flat $14 each, with frites and bread at $7 for effortless tasting spreads.
  • Roving Caviar Trolley: A roving trolley circles the dining room offering tableside caviar bumps paired with champagne or chilled vodka.
  • Paced Sharing Plates: Dishes like steak tartare, Parisian gnocchi, and seared tuna leave the pass at high speed for rapid-fire group sharing.

Before you head over

Practical advice to help you manage rapid kitchen pacing, portion sizes, and table reservations—book your table early to join the party.

  • Stagger your orders in courses

    Dishes arrive rapidly from the kitchen and table surface space can be cozy. Pacing your selections in courses ensures your plates arrive hot without crowding the table.

  • Secure reservations well in advance

    Collins Street tables book out weeks in advance and dining slots operate with set time limits. Secure your reservation early and arrive on time to enjoy a relaxed sitting.

  • Calibrate ordering for tasting portions

    Dishes are petite tasting-style plates meant for rapid-fire sharing. Plan on ordering multiple savory items per diner alongside frites or smoked-butter baguette to ensure everyone leaves full.
