The Other Place Kitchen & Bar

Nice restaurant overall. The interior is very dark with no pops of colour or metal or anything that could really create a good vibe and add character. Food was not bad, but pricey for what you get when compared to other similar scale restaurants when you consider the atmosphere, service, food, drinks, etc. Most dishes had added fees for protein which was a bit weird. I tried the lettuce wraps which were good but the sauces were extremely sweet. I just wasn’t wowed by any of the food, although some people in my party said theirs was delicious. Servers and hosts were friendly but a bit in your face, and seemed very new. I love it when a server is friendly and chatty when they’re serving you, but not loudly interrupting your conversation to ask if they can take any dishes… when there aren’t even any empty dishes on the table. Even though there was too much service in a way we often had empty glasses and were trying to flag someone down for water. Learning to read the table and increasing observation skills would be an asset to the service. We also had a very odd seating situation even though we had a reservation. Four people were seated in a semi circle table, with two extra chairs added in the aisle, which made it extremely awkward to sit there feeling like you’re in the way and another table immediately to your back. Everyone who walked by brushed against our backs. I think some people will love this restaurant, and in my opinion it has potential, but until all the little details are smoothed out I would consider somewhere that is more polished when I’m paying the same price.

This is my first time here..I frequented this place when it was the Pantry..same owner was a great value..now its not a great value. I waited for a waitress asked me if I wanted a drink came back 10 minutes later..I ordered the halibut and crispy fries for 27.00.pricy..it came and the fish was ok ..crispy fries are basically frozen fries nothing special better at Aand W. They are charging upscale prices and honestly can do better ..frozen fries ? What an overpriced joke..buyer beware..

First time at this restaurant, it Nice & clean . Lemonade lavender cocktail, Bellini cocktail, fish & cheeps, Tennessee burger were so good ! Don’t forget to try Donuts ??

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 anchovy dressing and my hubby had lettuce wraps but the filling was so starchy and gummy, it would've been better getting a jar from the store. Truly unpalatable. Certainly not worth the time or money. I'm glad others are happy here; it's not for us. Plenty of parking, easy freeway and border access: close to Costco. Covid rules in place and strictly adhered to. Staff friendly and professional.

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. Ample parking. Check it out Abbotsford!

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. The spicy lettuce wrap and thai curry noodle bowl had a unique taste. The truffle fries appetizer tasted so good. The sause had a unique tangy taste.

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, but the 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. I look forward to trying more menu items in the future.

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 the dish was quite good, considering Thai vegetables and products aren't available here. In general, the food had flavor contrary to some of the other reviews I noticed. Both my dish and my companion's dish were tasty. The server was attentive and the food come out quickly, attractive in presentation, etc. The con, the price was a bit dear but I would return to the restaurant.
