L'avis du Guide Michelin
Frevo is that rare restaurant that flies just under the radar but deserves to be in the spotlight, as Chef Franco Sampogna and his team have serious resumes. It's a tasting menu-only spot that doubles as a gallery; in fact, even the entrance is as artistic as the canvases lining its walls. There are just 18 counter seats and a small table here where the crew plates contemporary French dishes. Begin with bites like Japanese mackerel with shiso leaf and smoked trout roe in a crispy nori shell, or a butternut squash doughnut, served warm and topped with black truffle and parmesan. Madai grilled over binchotan gives the dense, silken fish a gorgeously crisped skin, while thinly shaved Comte cheese, aged 36-months, is paired with honey ice cream for a delightful contrast of savory and sweet.
