Great food and great staff. Owners may change but good staff makes the restaurant top notch. The chicken fried steak didn't disappoint!
Awesome delicious food with old school decor. Sara our waitress is awesome - she went above and beyond with making sure our food was perfect and what we asked for. She is very hospitable and efficient!! I ordered an open face roast beef sandwich good!!
I went during lunch and the food was not good... I was very disappointed with everything but the chicken strip because it was the freshest item. Maybe there is a better time to go but everything taste like it was sitting out for hours!
I ate many meals with loved-ones in the old location as I grew up, sometimes with celebrities a few tables away. It was a sort of tradition in our family. The old place was a classic - unique. For me, it wasn't ever really about the food, though the food was always great.
This is THE spot to go. It has such a warm, cozy, classic ma and pa feel to the restaurant. The fried chicken is to die for, especially the spicy chicken, and the staff is so friendly. You walk in and you can feel the warmth, hear the classic doo-wop music, and smell the home-cooked meals. It displays the aged history of the restaurant across the walls also. They offer a wonderful selection of pies and cakes, a nice variety of home-cooked meals, and offer wonderful desserts, beers, and more! Along with all of this, they also offer a separate room to host business meetings, parties, celebrations and more. I'll definitely have to come back to this joint!
I think about the decades of history that old location survived. America was constantly, and often speedily changing around it, and it finally even swept Earl Abel's out of true existence.
Faint bittersweet wisps of fond memories... that's what my visit to the new Earl Abel's provided to me as I ate.
The food at the new place was probably the same. I could tell the recipes were likely the old ones I knew and loved, but it just didn't taste the same sitting in a strip mall restaurant.
The new place is ok, I suppose, but really just a museum for me. I went to see the old salvaged stuff that I remembered fondly being in it's original home... and I ate. Two separate things.
