Care for a night out on the town in the confinement of a quiet neighbourhood?

L'Assommoir stirs up an excellent cocktail, catered to any person`s craving. With over 300 cocktail selections, L'Assommoir invites the customer to come to a world where life continues to reinvent itself.

Although the draw to L'Assommoir is the impressive selection of cocktails, the food specialty is ceviche, raw fish and other seafood marinated in citrus juice. Along with the ceviche, the menu boasts a fairly large collection of meat dishes, such as the porc au whiskey Jameson and decadent desserts, like sorbet.

When L'Assommoir opened in the fall of 2004, the plan was to create a large yet not overcrowded number of spots, so they arranged for 125 seats. A big table with 22 chairs is available to accommodate large groups, which is not uncommon at this busy restaurant. The interior is a dark brown and mahogany paint décor, with long wooden tables and chocolate-hued chairs. A DJ spins a variety of upbeat tunes each night of the week, and Sundays feature different live musicians. The crowd is professional, yet laid back, and there is plenty of space for table-hopping.
