Feedback
Reviews praise Absolute Abode's warm atmosphere, live piano sets and tasty mains, though some note slow service, limited seating and occasional staffing hiccups.
This is an attractive place, I have often met friends for tee or coffee during the day, but this is the first time I had dinner. it was a very pleasant experience, eating was good and the jazzpianist was excellent. barely mention, but the waitress made a few mistakes, as her English was not too good. that can only improve. I recommend this restaurant.
I am very happy to find a good restaurant. the service was friendly when a little hap danger and the eating was good, although not excellent, but it is the atmosphere that makes this a small jewel. the restaurant consists of a small number of tables that are embedded within an essentially inner design store. the device is simple and the space gently illuminated and creates a pleasant atmosphere that has been further improved by a musician who plays a simple listening music. Although the tables are close together and were full, we were not aware that others around us. an excellent place for a cozy evening meal or a cozy conversation with some friends.
We enjoy family brunch on the weekends (sons are four and six) and had supper whilst a live jazz trio entertained. Recommended local, we re-visit again and again.
I always enjoy dining at Absolute Abode. The staff is friendly, the menu is delicious, and the live music adds to the great ambiance.
The food at this restaurant is excellent, with delicious coffee as well. It is a popular spot for lunch and brunch, offering amazing dinner options. However, the live music can be a bit overwhelming. The singing is too loud and makes it difficult to hear your dining companions. Additionally, the constant clapping after each song can disrupt the enjoyment of your meal. In my opinion, this would be the perfect spot for dinner without the live entertainment.
