    Fantastic wedding reception experience

    We had the most wonderful experience from start to finish. Lainey was extremely helpful with coordinating our special day. The space was beautiful and the service was fantastic. We got such amazing feedback from our guests as well.

    Perfect Night!

    Where do I even start... Everything about L'Abattoir was exceptional. Communication during the planning phase was excellent, Lainey was so great and easy to work with. Tasha handled our rehearsal and was just great to work with. She explained how the evening would play out, gave us pointers to help make our ceremony even better. Emma was there on our wedding day and was so awesome to deal with. She made sure all guest were well looked after and helped our day go according to plan. THE FOOD!!! Not enough good things to say about the food. All of our guests loved it which made us so happy. This venue allowed us to live out our intimate wedding dreams consisting of love, family, and good food. An excellent experience from start to finish.

    The perfect city wedding venue

    We had our small, October wedding ceremony and reception at L'abattoir and the whole experience was seamless and beautiful! We booked the venue about 9 months prior to our wedding and from our first walk through before booking, the team was supportive, professional, and communicative. Specifically, Lainey, Tasha, and Emma were awesome to work with! All of our guests are still raving about the atmosphere, food, and service! This is the perfect venue for anyone looking for a city venue with amazing food and wine. Thank you again, Lainey, Tasha, and Emma!

    The best intimate wedding venue!

    We are had our reception at L’Abattoir in October 2024. Our entire experience working with them was seamless. They were very responsive, easy to work with and so accommodating to any requests we had. The venue itself is beautiful and it’s so nice that you get a private building separate from the main restaurant. The night of the wedding went perfectly. The staff were so lovely, the service was impeccable and the food was some of the best we’ve ever had. The cocktails were also amazing! I truly could not recommend them enough, we were so impressed!

    Perfect Wedding Day

    I can't recommend this venue enough. From the moment we booked over a year in advance, Lainey was incredibly professional, responsive and helpful. When our ceremony plans changed, they accommodated us with no trouble. everything was made so easy by the team's expertise. They even were able to accommodate one of our guest's extremely limiting dietary restrictions with no trouble. On the day of, Emma lead an incredible team to make our day perfect. The food was fantastic and the service was unmatched. Our guests raved about how beautiful the venue was, and how much they enjoyed the food. Our guests said they had never been taken care of better. 10/10 recommend!

    Amazing food & a seamless planning experience

    We had an outstanding experience at L'Abattoir and would recommend it to any couple for their intimate wedding experience. The entire planning process was so smooth that we felt extremely confident and prepared going into our special day. We really appreciated that they were even able to setup our minimal decor for us. On the day of, the staff were extremely friendly, professional and provided a very personalized experience for our guests, ensuring that their glasses were always full. We would be remiss not to mention the food, it was a meal to remember and we loved with family style getting to try so much.

    Fantastic evening - exactly what we wanted!

    We were so happy that we went with L'Abattoir for our wedding last year! When we first started planning our wedding, we imagined the evening would have the vibe of a sophisticated dinner party with dancing. We got exactly what we wanted... and more! First, working with Lainey made planning the evening very smooth. She was super responsive and had lots of great suggestions that would help make the wedding a success and most importantly (to me), an easygoing affair. The service on the evening itself was excellent - guests appreciated the small touches, like being handed a glass of champagne on arrival and having their napkins folded when they left their chairs. The venue was beautiful (and really shines when you let the brick and other natural elements of the room come through) and had such a classy atmosphere. And the food! Well, that was a highlight - we went with family style to get that dinner party vibe and we still have guests a year later who tell us how much they loved their meal.
    All in all, would highly recommend having your wedding here. And apparently they rent out half the room for smaller events - could be a great spot for a future anniversary dinner!

    Good and bad

    I will start on positive. We have been planning our wedding for 2 years, and the event team was spectacular! Communication was perfect, and I definitely reached out way too often. They were extremely accommodating. Also, Yang was so great on our big day. It went really smooth.

    The only two things I was somewhat disappointed about, is the fact than the food was all ice cold. I had reached out to eveyone regarding their experience, and unfortunately this was the main issue. I understand it is a challenge to serve 37 guests, so it cannot be perfect, but I would have rather they come out as ready as opposed to all together and cold. We were also informed the banana cake was very dry. I also did get a few comments from 2 guests that the other server was taking away unfinished drinks, and dessert plates, ad they were still being consumed.

    The steak tar tar was amazing, as well as the crab cake! Overall I would still recommend, but it was disappointing as we were hoping the food would be the highlight .

    Thank you for hosting us!
