I am unsure of how severe this restaurant was affected by COVID just like all non-chain restaurants, but the food and service had noticeably decreased. We went with the 5 course tasting menu, and I only finished two dishes. Since the waiter never asked what I had thought of the food, I will write it here. The food was below average and the peach ingredient was very acidic. The duck was very dry (not crispy) and the pork belly was covered by a thick glazed sauce that tasted like store bought bbq sauce. The peach beurre blanc that was served underneath the lobster was excellent. The desert tasted like a one or two days old pastry. I once really liked that place, but I become very disappointed every time I dine there since COVID.

We picked The Frog and the Peach to celebrate my birthday and it was lovely. We sat in their airy and tented outdoor space. They had a 5 course tasting menu celebrating summer peaches and enjoyed every bite. The poached lobster was outstanding! Portions were generous and really interesting combination of flavors. Service was attentive, warm, welcoming.

I was a bit disappointed this time around. We typically spend our Anniversary here but the quality and quantity of the food was a bit of a letdown. Desserts were just ok. Sounded delectable on the menu but not what we expected. It was nice but not the best we've gotten from the restaurant. Overall from the drinks to the ambiance were just so-so.

Perfect food evening….starting excellent advice from Donaciano, the sommelier, about our wine. We came for the restaurant week menu and thoroughly enjoyed each course. We started with the peach with duck confit…the fruit and the meat a perfect pairing. We both also chose the pork belly for the entree. We have never tried pork belly but found it delicious…a strong flavor like bacon, but the meat was sliced thin and delicious. The sticky rice and the yuzu accompaniments were wonderful. Dessert was angel food cake topped with sliced peaches and walnuts. We dont eat here as often because of the parking situation. There was the promised valet..which is a requirement in the oppressive heat…but the fee of $15 is rather outrageous….the only flaw in an otherwise fabulous experience.

Have not been to this restaurant in a long time and will not be back. The Octopus was good, but the main dishes were not great. Only main special was frog and not mush fish. Menu is very small. Dessert was terrible, a cookie with a scoop of Ice cream and some nuts. Nothing really good on the dessert menu. Said something to the waiter and he took it off bill. This is not a 5-star restaurant maybe a 3.

The service was excellent. They are accommodating to vegetarians. All the dishes we had were tasty, and the portions were generous, so we took some home too. Love the garden room with the beautiful plants. Also they played a nice mix of Latin music and oldies, which was enjoyable.

I was first in the Frog & the Peach in 1990. The bar area was more congenial then. It is now trying to be something that doesn't mesh with the rest of the scene. The food and wine that we had were excellent. The Spanish wines are great.

Excellent experience! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the Spanish Tapas tasting menu and wine pairing at The Frog and the Peach. It was a perfect way to celebrate our anniversary. Each course was beautiful, creative, and absolutely delicious, while the wine enhanced each brilliantly. Our server, Charlotte, was wonderfully attentive and informative, prepping us for each course and wine, and allowing us just the right amount of time to enjoy each. We had a lovely chat with Charlotte, the sommelier, and the maitre d to top off a perfect evening. We can’t wait to return!

Nothing special about this location. Parking is a hassle, you're forced into a $15 Valet parking as street parking is limited. Service was awful, attentiveness was not up to par. We consistently waited for the servers when we were only 1 of 3 tables outside. The only thing we really like about this restaurant, is that we were able to reserve an outside table ahead of time.
