Reviews for The Other Place Kitchen & Bar in Abbotsford, BC

We were attending a wedding in Abbotsford and had an hour to spare between the ceremony and reception, so we thought we’d find... a nice watering hole to pass about 45 minutes. When we arrived, the friendly server came to our table and took our drinkorders. The pros: Friendly service, decently sized drinks for the price, comfortable seats and atmosphere. The cons: Superslow to get out orders. Our server was also the bartender. She had a coworker floating around, doing who knows what, but he wasnot helping her at all. Even though the place wasn’t all that busy (maybe 6 other patrons besides our group), we waited nearly30 minutes for Bellinis and everyone’s drinks came at staggered times, so no one in our group was drinking together. We werealmost late getting back to the reception. If you’ve got time to spare, it might be a decent place to go. Not sure about thefood as we only had drinks, so just beware. If you’re in a rush to be somewhere, this is not the place for you. Read more

We decided to go try this new restaurant for the first time. It wasn’t busy at all which was great. The appetizers were tasty... (brussel sprouts, wings and meat balls). I agree with all the other comments; it is on the pricier end. When it came down toordering our mains the waitress said the kitchen was closed. I was so annoyed as we came there for dinner and had to call adifferent restaurant to go pick up dinner and have it at home. It would have been nice if the waitress could have given us aheads up for last call prior to them closing the kitchen. Read more

First time here and it was an overall good lunch/brunch experience. The food was hot and the flavours were definitely there, the... eggs Benny was delicious. The only downside was portion size compared to the price on some of the other dishes we had. Will begoing back to try other menu items for sure! Read more

We tried 4 different dishes: Sirloin Steak Sandwich, sweet and spicy lettuce wrap, thai curry noodle bowl, and 8oz beef sirloin.... The chimichurri sauce from the sirloin steak sandwich complemented the sandwich; the steak was cooked the way I wanted. Thespicy lettuce wrap and thai curry noodle bowl had a unique taste. The truffle fries appetizer tasted so good. The sause had aunique tangy taste. Read more

I just got back from Thailand and this was my first Canadian restaurant and I felt it was worth following up with a Thai Dish... here at this restaurant. I had the Thai curry noodle dish at happy hour for $15. I felt it was slightly sweet but actually thedish was quite good, considering Thai vegetables and products aren't available here. In general, the food had flavor contraryto some of the other reviews I noticed. Both my dish and my companion's dish were tasty. The server was attentive and the foodcome out quickly, attractive in presentation, etc. The con, the price was a bit dear but I would return to the restaurant. Read more

We've been here a few times, every dish I've tried has been excellent, cooked perfectly, fresh and full of flavor. Service is... great as well. Definitely one of the best restaurants in Abbotsford. Other reviewers have mentioned the prices being high, butthe prices are on par with similar restaurants, and for the quality, the price is well worth it. Portion sizes are good as well.Nice selection of beer on tap, a huge screen showing the hockey game while we were in there, immaculate, comfortable space. Ilook forward to trying more menu items in the future. Read more

First time here tonight and it was pretty quiet. Decent drink and menu selection, friendly staff. Had the lettuce wraps in a... salad instead and was happy to see lots of big juicy pieces of chicken. Very dark ambiance and huge screen TV and bar. Ampleparking. Check it out Abbotsford! Read more

How to say this in the most polite way: the drinks were perfectly made but very steep in price, but when you go out for food and... the food is just not good....we could only give one star. I had Ceasar salad which had no flavour at all despite the anchovydressing and my hubby had lettuce wraps but the filling was so starchy and gummy, it would've been better getting a jar from thestore. Truly unpalatable. Certainly not worth the time or money. I'm glad others are happy here; it's not for us. Plenty ofparking, easy freeway and border access: close to Costco. Covid rules in place and strictly adhered to. Staff friendly andprofessional. Read more
