• Fusion / Eclectic • Columbia Heights

Booked 13 times today

Fraiche (French for Fresh) is a fresh take on culinary fusion with inspiration from multiple cultures (including French, Cajun/Southern American, and Caribbean). This is also a fresh take on the historic architecture of the venue, which was once a theater. Fraiche is designed to be a non-pretentious culinary destination with a nod to upscale dining without the stuffiness. The menu is constructed in a way that takes approachable and recognizable food and elevates it, with no flavor left behind! Since the beginning of time, food has brought people together and that is our ultimate goal with this concept.

OMG! This is the place to be for delishous african cuisine. I dined on the fried filet catfish that was cooked to perfection, very tasty with Jolie rice and cabbage. All was absolutely taseful. The waitress was extremely helpful with my dinner choice and the meal came quick and hot. I felt like I was at home. I'm coming back real soon.

This was my second visit in 2 weeks and I recommended it to several other people. The staff is great. Friendly and attentive. The brisket sliders, Brussel sprouts and turkey meatballs with the tri-color cauliflower are worthy of repeats. Really delish!!! Don’t fall for the sampler platter (3 fork fulls of pasta/shrimp and an equally paltry and lackluster presentation of beans/rice, skimpy chicken tender and peppers) for $26!!!! This was disappointing in presentation and poor value for money. Otherwise a nice neighborhood spot worthy of a regular visit!
