What People Are Saying About Gaslight

Citysearch

In Short – Befitting its name (French for "brasserie on the corner"), Gaslight provides the far reaches of the South End with a welcoming neighborhood hangout. The Aquitaine Group (Aquitaine, Metropolis Cafe, Union Bar and Grill) repeats its knack for striking a balance between upscale and casual, enabling diners to pop in for a quick snack or a full meal. The menu of bistro faves (onion soup, moules frites, nicoise salad) is affordably priced, with everything under $20.

Great food, great ambience

by thomasgazi at Citysearch

I have to say this is one class place, brings back great memories of my times in Paris. The food is amazing, who ever the chef is my hat is off to him, the wine selection and recommendations were excellent, and I only have to say I wish I could have stayed for desert. The wait staff was knowledgeable and helpful. We will be back!

  • Pros: Food

Lovely French Bistro in South End

by hotelman21 at Citysearch

The Gaslight has an eclectic, enjoyable ambiance from the moment you walk into the door. The service is normally very good and attentive to the guests' palate. I love the fresh warm bead served on the table. The steak frites are delicious, and creative cocktails make the atmosphere lots of fun.

The Gaslight is the perfect place kick back and relax over a great meal!

  • Pros: Free parking, quick seating
  • Cons: ala carte meals

Great South End Restaurant

by dvautour at Citysearch

As mentioned in a few other reviews, the service wasn't the best but it was ok. We also weren't in any hurry as one shouldn't be at dinner anyway. The food was good but not great. I expected more even tho my meal was the best of the 4 of them. The desserts were awesome. Good wine and beer list too. Free parking is a nice bonus. The prices were not too expensive.

Some reviews mention the noise. It is an open atmosphere and a cool one at that. On a Friday night, it was busy but no more noisy than expected. We had no issues hearing one another.

Would I go back? Absolutely.

  • Pros: Great Atmosphere, decent food and great desserts, good price
  • Cons: slow service
