Specifically, La Liste ranks restaurants after determining their scores on a 0-100 scale based on:

  • Guidebook and trusted publication reviews
  • Feedback from chefs on guide legitimacy and restaurant quality

Located in the heart of Gastown, L’Abattoir is built on the site of Vancouver’s first jail and butchery, hence the name, which means “slaughterhouse” in French. But don’t let that deter you from enjoying the exquisite French-influenced West Coast cuisine. Whether you opt for the Chef’s Tasting Menu or the seasonal a la carte menu, you will be delighted by the dishes that showcase local ingredients in stunning ways.
