absinthe

had a superb dinner this past week, and opted for the three course table d'hote. the quality of the ingredients are nothing short of excellent, with beautiful presentations for both the starter and main. the chicken was stuffed with a gorgeous mushroom duxelle, and there was a dynamite sauce to go with. service was attentive, informative, and very friendly. i will happily return, hungry for more!

ho this is a wow restaurant the food was so good and tasty and i say very tasty from the porc to the steak and the famous burger/poutine. the appetizer again very good the charcuterie was excellent . ok for desert i had the cheese plate and again well presented so was the sugar pie and the profiteroles . not often i give a high rating they deserve it and thank you mike for the excellent service

highly recommend

service bilingue de grande qualité. menu inspirant, le contenu des assiettes à surpassé les attentes! nous avions choisi l'option table d'hôte avec l'accord des vins. cela nous a permis de faire de très belles découvertes.
nous le recommandons chaudement.
important à savoir: la salle est assez bruyante, j'éviterais si vous êtes à la recherche d'une atmosphère feutrée et romantique.

it's our second time at absinthe.

it's a lovely place and the food and drinks are awesome.

we went last night and brought my cousin and her husband that were visiting from out of town.

we all loved most of the experience.

our main server had a very bad attitude. no smiling, hardly any talking and no effort to help the person sitting with us that was not understanding english very well. he could have at least slowed down while talking. that was disappointing.

all other staff we dealt with was friendly.

this guy must have been having a bad day.

my friend and i went for my birthday dinner and it was amazing. the service was great. the food was amazing. i liked that they had a 3 course option so that we could try a little bit of everything. would definitely go back!

nice evening and the food was good and beautifully presented. quite a busy place but for some reason a bit on the loud side so not ideal for a tête à tête. will definitely go back.

my wife and i visited this place last night and this was a wonderful experience. the experience was excellent, the pres notation and the flavors were outstanding. i will definitely repeat it...!!

i have frequented this restaurant numerous times and for great reason! the food has always been stellar...from food to service!
regardless of the occasion - be it casual luncheon or a celebrating a special occasion, you can't go wrong with absinthe!

yes the burger is incredible but be ready for a rich flavourful delight the service is always good and their mains are nice and well balanced. side salads are always good and the atmosphere is comfortable and relaxing. been here many times.

one of the better restaurants in town, have always thought service was great and was amazingly delicious. great for a special occasion or a date night, let them take care of you.

this was a very special day for our senior engineer pat who was retiring the next day.  we had a big crowd 50 people and it accommodated everyone without a problem.  the food was great, the service was awesome and everyone had a great time.  it was an awesome day and absinthe café is awesome.  i would recommend this restaurant to any one who is looking for fine dining.

super friendly. we thoroughly enjoyed our evening at absinthe. the food was fantastic as well as the service. our waiter was very attentive and had a great sense of humour.

thanks to the kitchen monkeys.

i was there last night for dinner and the food is amazing. will definitely be going back!

let them feed you and take your money. this place has been a favourite of mine for a few years now. they never disappoint. two of us went there this past weekend and asked our server just to feed us the best of what they have on offer, complete with wine pairings. it was fantastic, and i'd definitely try this approach again. for each course we were given two different dishes - we opted to share everything so we got to taste it all. the mushroom soup was so flavourful it was almost unbelievable. they took pork, stuffed it with foie gras, breaded and deep fried it. i don't care who you are - that's good eats if done well - and it was done amazingly well. every dish we had of six dishes was amazing, and expertly paired with delicious wine. go. tell them to just serve you what they want to serve you. pay your money and be thankful you did it all. in the end we paid $225. that's for 2 of us, 6 dishes, 6 pairings, 2 desserts, and 2 absinthe. completely reasonable for the excellence they're providing. well done absinthe.

absinthe review. had a brilliant meal at absinthe. the serving staff were great. the atmosphere was fun. the food was loaded with flavour. a great french restaurant with many token french flavours. will definitely go back - soon!
