Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Entertainment District

This is my fourth meal at Abrielle in 2024, so I knew that it would not disappoint. Upon arrival, Meaghan (sp?) the Hostess advised us of a shortage of service and kitchen staff....so there would be a delay in food service. Understandable given today's hospitality industry labour woes! I appreciated the "Head's Up!" Dalia, our Server, was quick to take a drink order and advise us that two menu items were now out of stock (The Club Sandwich and French Toast). Both were items which we would have selected. However, the Burger, Steak Frites and Abrielle Breakfast as alternate selections were fabulous! I wouldn't have tried the Steak Frites if the Club was available. Now, I know that it will be my first choice upon my next visit! Maggie (?) the Floor Manager was able to run interference when an univited guest stopped by our table to chat and wouldn't leave. In fact, it was great to see that women made up the entire service team yesterday! It was wonderful to watch them help each other; making drinks, clearing tables, drying glassware, serving dishes, topping up water glasses, etc. Well Done, Team Abrielle!

Great place for cocktails, conversation, and elevated bar food. Cocktails were all good and as described in the menu. The lobster roll and thin fries were stand outs. Lots of lobster, roll toasted just right, and stuffed full. Fries were crispy and perfectly salted. Went well as a starter with the cocktails. Lots of varied seating and late hours.

Christmas Day and I have to say it was a fabulous decision to go to Fox on John’s. The food was really good, the service was excellent, and the whole atmosphere was just lovely. I particularly like the decor, very comfortable very warm and inviting. 

Formidable food and experience. I can’t remember our waitress name but she was awesome and attentive. We will definitely come back for special occasions!

Great waitstaff, service top notch. Management also on the ball! Food was flavourful and generous! Expresso martini on point. Overall a great experience.
