The food was decent, not fantastic but good enough. Expensive though for what you get. Good service, interesting and inventive food, but it didnt all go together and didnt work, but it was a good experience overall. Drinks were nice too.

From the service to the food and wine, it was the best dining experience that we ever had. Our return trip didn't disappoint either. You can't go wrong with the menu, but try the lobster bisque and the Ibirico... More

Unfortunately, Absinthe turned out to be as average as the 3 people I polled before going said it would be. Having read mixed reviews and noting that it was moving to a new venue I assumed that it must be OK. In short - it was a poor choice to go with friends who appreciate good food and was in... More

Like many others, my wife and I had difficulty finding Absinthe because we did not realize that the Outram Park MRT station is a sprawling grotto with many exits, not a single point as shown on the map in the website. We are grateful that Absinthe will move to a new location at Boat Quay at the end of April... More

Lived here for a few years. Tried most good places. This is the best. The actual food was perfectly cooked and quality was the best. Go there.

New restaurant, excellent menu, light, refined and delicious! It lacked a bit of atmosphere over lunch and the service while good was not at par with the food
