This is the first restaurant we went to after Covid! It was a great experience, not stressful at all!

Had 2 appetizers, 2 entrees and dessert. Every single dish was perfectly executed.

We came here for our first in-person restaurant experience since COVID-19. Melissa our waitress was insanely attentive and kind and had great recommendations based off of what information we gave her. She really listened to us and elevated our time. We came for our 5th anniversary and it was made so special by the staff. The food was delicious and each meal was an awesome adventure of unique flavours that paired together so well. The cocktails and drinks were also fun and very tasty. We always make any excuse to come to this special place.

Anniversary

Made a reservation numbers threatened with a $50 penalty per person if we did not show. WTH? Arrived promptly and were met by a man who was probably not often described as friendly. Service is reasonable food was excellent, Bread was beyond excellent, wines were expensive but overall we enjoyed ourselves without feeling overly pampered. Service seemed to be a little rushed. Would go again for sure.

Limited menu due to Covid-19 restrictions, but items we ordered were amazing (Chicken stuffed with summer truffles - Morel mushrooms, radishes and turnips - 40
Roast double chop of Peace Country lamb-Porcini mushrooms, fava beans, natural jus - 48)

So happy that one of our favourite restaurants is back open and in great form!

Apart from the amazing service by Nick and his team, the kitchen staff hasn't lost a step due to the coronavirus closure. We started with the spot prawn special that was delicate and ever so exquisite. The foie parfait was so beautifully plated that it was pity to eat it, almost.

As for the mains, the chicken stuffed with summer truffle was divine but also a hearty size and our slow-cooked halibut was cooked perfectly. Bravo!

My wife and I were looking forward to enjoying the wide array of fine food offered on the menu; unfortunately, due to 'you know what', they limited the menu to 3 or so items per course. That's slightly disappointing. I get it, but a bummer nonetheless. Overall, considering the price, we were let down. I found the food to be of the highest quality, but, for example, the Steak Diane could have been from any fine french restaurant. I will go back if treated to a dinner out but would like to have had a bit more of a culinary adventure.

We both had the lamb specials which were not bad overall. My veg was a little under cooked for my taste.

Food was to die for. The prawn appie was amazing, had the steak Diane for my main course and their pastry chef is a god!

Amazing food, exceptional service. Felt very safe and clean. Would recommend to anyone.

You all did a great job making us feel safe and it was a truly great experience. Thank you.

We went on a date for our first dining out experience since Covid-19 and it was a huge success! :)
The food was as amazing as always as well as the cocktails and service and the restaurant and staff took all the necessary precautions to make sure that our dining experience felt safe and normal at the same time!

Date night

Excellent food, oysters a highlight. Great date night!

I was soooo pleased by the food! The manager and the server were lovely and I would highly recommend this place as a must see to anyone visiting Vancouver.

We went here last Friday to celebrate our very b- lated 18th year anniversary. We had Melissa as our sever. She provided us top notch service! All the staff were friendly and they were wearing mask and kept the place sanitized. We both felt very safe and most of all enjoyed our meals, cocktails and dessert to the 10! Thank you L’Abattoir! We already have plans to come back again! See you soon!

Excellent food, excellent cocktails and great service. We are so glad you are back!

Very considerate staff, excellent food.

Love this restaurant! The food is always delicious and innovative. Service was friendly and attentive.

Thank you for all the great work and excellent service!

Amazing experience. Everything from the customer service, wine selection and food. We ordered the spicy lamb tartare, oysters, duck and Venison. Great flavours and everything was cooked perfectly. Venison was the highlight of the night cooked with coffee, chocolate, and berries. Very multi-dimensional and complex dish. Delicious.

I had a wonderful brunch experience, the duck confit and pancakes were well presented and very delicious. The service was very attentive and friendly. I would highly recommend.

Great choice in Vancouver!

Very good brunch and their scone with clotted cream is the best..

L'Abattoir continues to be an outstanding destination for wine, cocktails and food. A top of the line Vancouver restaurant.

This brunch is one of "Vancouver's best kept secrets" as they are normally known for their fancy french dinners. Their friendly staff and bright ambiance (both upstairs and downstairs) go perfectly with their carefully curated and absolutely beautiful brunch items. They also have really great coffee (which is typically a non-negotiable for me...if I can't drink your coffee black then we have a problem!) and coat check at the door which is a nice perk. Will be back for sure!

Never disappoints. Food is awesome. Service is next level. Philip is awesome on the bar. Cocktails are pure perfection

Good - all was as expected

Cute restaurant; I have been looking forward to eating here for awhile but didn’t live up to the hype.

It was pretty good. Servers were a bit cold to us and needed a bit more personality. Felt like they might have placed us in the back on purpose, but not sure. Food was excellent tho.

The event team staff is perhaps one of the best I’ve work with. Thanks Lainey!

World class service! Muoy expensive for normal working class folks!

Perfect for our business dinner. Thanks! Will be back.

Food is pricey and low-caliber. Paid $55 for a steak Diane which was the worst rendition of Snake Farms beef I have had. Wall facing chairs were uncomfortable too but perhaps that’s just me (on the tall side). Overall it’s a really big let down when the place looks nice, you spend $200 and the food isn’t amazing.

L'Abattoir never disappoints! It is the BEST modern French restaurant in Vancouver. Everything on the plate is done with love and finesse. Chefs and cooks all strive for perfection in every element of the dishes. LOVE IT:)

Great service and culinary experience! The first jail in Vancouver turned into a stylish restaurant.

We had a terrific meal and the service was suburb. We had an issue with the choice of wine and the issue was handled as well as it could have been - full marks.

Beautiful experience from start to finish! Thank you for an incredible evening.

. Waiters attention was hard to catch.
. Food was served at a 45 mins interval....
. Waiter should have indicated that the extra oyster is $6... a piece... we thought instead of 5 standard size oysters, we would be 6 smaller ones.
. Kamkuat tuna was delicious.
. Oyster out of this world.
. Others.. duck and steak. Nothing special at all.
. Wonderful atmosphere.
. Ask building envelope to check air leakage around window frame.... too cold.
