About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Great for happy hour
Aboyer (ab-wah-yay), meaning, “to bark,” is a French-American brasserie as imagined by Chef Michael Lachowicz. An American-French restaurant pushing the boundaries of classic cuisine. Pulling from influences all over the world, Aboyer reconfigures classic dishes, but is still firmly planted in classic method and technique, never forgetting where we came from.

Reservations are recommended; walk-ins are welcome. Aboyer requires a credit card to secure all reservations. Please note that reservations cancelled within 24 hours of the scheduled booking will incur a $25 per guest cancellation fee & no-shows will be billed at a rate of $50 per guest.

For private dining email events@georgetroisgroup.com

Aboyer is conveniently located across from the Indian Hill Metra.

    One of our favorite date night spots. Good food, especially the trout last night, and served by people who enjoy doing what they do. The wines are well chosen, either from the wine list or even the by the glass options. It is not cheap, and yet at the end of an evening of having time to taste and enjoy a perfect dining pace, it is a good value. The steak frites are very satisfying, as are the salads, the roast chicken, and the deserts we have tried - usually happily full before.

    Best restaurant on the North Shore. Excellent service and great vibe. The outdoor space is now open for summer, which patrons seem to really love. (I'm an A/C kind of gal so I stick to the indoors). Happy hour is best in town.

    An excellent, outdoor dining experience at Aboyer - this time early enough to enjoy their "happy hour" offerings.

    A very pleasant restaurant with excellent food! We loved the cheese-filled puffs and the excellent bread. The salad was tasty but the amount of dressing was too great and made it soggy. Next time - dressing on the side… We ordered the halibut and the shrimp with polenta. Both were cooked to perfection and very tasty, albeit quite rich. Deserts were a bit disappointing. The profiteroles were average but the chocolate sauce was cold (we asked if it is served hot and were told it did). The cobbler was just ok. Service was friendly and casual. We sat on the patio which could have been lovely but the plastic back wall made it hot and humid with no air flow. The worst issue were the bugs which bothered us so much we had to move inside. Too bad☹️wish that could be corrected. All in all - Aboyer is a great restaurant and we’ll be back.

    We ate outside, and considering the tables were set up on an old converted driveway, the ambience was surprisingly good. And of course, the food and our server were outstanding.
