"Unpretentious French Fare" by Diner Diva (25 reviews)
July 06, 2007 - Unpretentious and French don't always go together, but at Absinthe, they do. We were warmly greeted by the hostess, even though we didn't have reservations, and were seated promptly. Fresh ingredients and creative twists to the usual French fare make this place worthwhile.
