Concierge "L'Abattoir plays on the butcher theme in name only—the food here is contemporary and not as meat-centric as one might think."
Fodor's "This two-level restaurant with exposed brick walls and classic black-and-white floor tiles has a bold collection of cocktails and an adventurous modern menu."
BlackBook "Thoughtfully-curated wine and spirits list, with knockout original cocktails, like the Donald Draper and the Slaughterhouse, served in elegant antique glassware."
