The food was excellent, everything we ordered was very good. If you want a cocktail off the menu they are good, otherwise stick to water. We went for brunch, ordered coffee which they had. Coffee is below average. We didn’t mind since the food was m very very good.

Love Abe & Louie’s. The food and service was excellent. We were disappointed that brunch was not being served because I had called ahead and was told it would be.

When you arrive you are greeted by the hostess and almost immediately seated. We were quickly greeted by by PETER P. Peter was absolutely amazing. We were celebrating a birthday and he really made sure we would enjoy our experience. Peter gave amazing recommendations on both beverages and meals. Only complaint would be that my steak was cooked wrong but without hesitation, Peter came over and had them remake it. The manager came out and apologized and asked if the new steak was cooked to my liking. At the end, Peter brought out a mini cake and shared lots of stories with us. Overall, service was spectacular !! constantly checking in on us and having small talk. My significant other and I are definitely looking forward to having lunch again and I will definitely be asking for Peter !!
