Frontside Food and Wine is an exceptional venue. I booked the space for a social event for 75 students. Dealing with Ann Marie was a breeze and put my mind at ease that it would be a fab night for all. The food is delicious, and everyone still talks about how good the night was. I would highly recommend this venue and would book again.
