  Delicious food and very interesting drinks list. Good service which was friendly, efficient and professional. Nice ambience: not too noisy and not pretentious but still very cool. Highly recommended.

  I've tried L'Abattoir three times now. Once from an invitation, a second chance on a friend's recommendation and a third time to confirm. Parts of L'Abattoir are well done and worth it, but the majority of it strikes me as overrated. The positives include the cocktails, the wine list, the bread offering and the Steak Diane. The steak alone would be enough for me to consider joining friends here again. What I found underwhelming was that many of the other dishes I tasted had flavours that blurred together rather than complimenting one another. For the most part, the food has been well prepared although my first visit was off enough that I was hesitant to return. While it has its silver lining, my experiences here have rarely left a lasting impression that is expected from a restaurant of this calibre. Also, I understand the name may imply a meat focus, but the lack of vegetables is still surprising. Despite feeling rushed while dining here, the staff are attentive and polite.

  This is a French restaurant in the historic gas town. It serves some fine and delicate dishes. Simple items such as the savory bread (extra charge) will make you want to ask for more. Every plates looks great and taste great. Flavor and textures attack all the palettes. Although this place is consider high end, I will definitely come back to try some other things.

  Upscale cocktails in swanky digs. All cocktails sampled did not disappoint. Fashionista & funky folk flock here. Front bar is tiny so expect to stand if the 8 seats are full. Larger dining space upstairs.
