My wife and I are foodies and love trying new restaurants. We had Broadway tickets and decided to try frog and slim before the show… It was a great decision! Our server, Alysha, was knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely attentive. She truly enhanced our meal experience! We thoroughly enjoyed the hamburger and octopus that we ordered for our entrées. Additionally, we also had soup as an appetizer, which was also equally delicious. We met one of the owners, Slim, who was extremely humble and grateful for having us there… We truly felt appreciated. As we observed the restaurant, all the employees seemed happy and eager to help all guests…It was a great feeling. Although this was our first visit, it definitely will not be our last. We look forward to coming here again very soon.
