Hidden behind an art gallery in Greenwich Village, Frevo is a Michelin-starred restaurant offering an immersive dining experience that showcases a global approach to cuisine. Co-founded in 2019 by Brazilian chef Franco Sampogna and his Portuguese partner, Frevo quickly earned acclaim for its innovative dining concepts and ever-evolving menu.

The name 'Frevo' derives from the Portuguese word ferver, which means 'to boil.' This reflects the dynamic nature of the restaurant, symbolizing something that is in constant motion and transformation—just as the menu, art, and wine pairings evolve with each season to create a new and unique experience for diners.

With only 18 seats around an open counter, Frevo offers a curated tasting menu of approximately 10 courses, featuring small bites, larger dishes, and desserts, all made with seasonal ingredients and innovative techniques. The restaurant has earned recognition for its culinary excellence, including a spot on the 50 Best Discovery list and a place among Forbes’ All-Star New York Eateries

The heart of Frevo

The atmosphere at Frevo is as integral to the experience as the food itself. Guests enter through a discreet door in an art gallery and are transported into a serene, minimalist space that focuses on the intimate interaction between chef and guest. The 18-seat layout around the kitchen counter allows diners to watch Franco Sampogna and his team in action, creating a seamless blend of performance and dining. The décor is simple yet elegant, with a dark walnut counter, soft lighting that enhances the ambiance, and carefully selected ceramics and glassware that complement the artistry of each dish.

A rotating collection of contemporary art on display adds to the atmosphere, reflecting Frevo’s fusion of food and visual artistry. The result is an exclusive yet welcoming environment, where attention to detail and craftsmanship in both cuisine and décor come together to create an immersive fine-dining experience.

Sampogna, co-owner and Executive Chef at Frevo, brings a wealth of international experience and a passion for artistic presentation to the restaurant. Originally from Brazil, Sampogna worked in Paris under some of France's most revered chefs, including Guy Savoy and Alain Ducasse. In 2016, he moved to the US, working first as Executive Chef at Jema in Long Island before co-founding Frevo in 2019. In 2023, he was named a James Beard Award semifinalist for Best Chef: New York State. Sampogna’s culinary style is characterized by a dedication to quality, precision, and seasonal ingredients, which he uses to craft vibrant, visually striking dishes.

Sampogna draws inspiration from his Brazilian heritage and love for contemporary art, creating an experience at Frevo that fuses culinary and visual artistry. His commitment to excellence has garnered him accolades from critics and diners alike, with Frevo being consistently praised as one of New York’s most innovative fine-dining establishments. Sampogna’s unique approach to combining gastronomy and art has positioned him as a distinctive voice in the culinary world.

Frevo quickly established itself as a celebrated dining destination, with a Michelin star awarded soon after opening in 2019. Further accolades followed and in 2024, World of Fine Wine awarded Frevo North America’s Best Organic Wine List, a testament to its commitment to excellence in every facet of the dining experience.
