It’s a great place with super friendly staff and an excellent selection of seafood. I had the NY steak, which was fantastic, and the lentil soup was absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!

I've been wanting to try Abigail's for a while now based on the great reviews, and finally made it there last night. We sat outside, as it was a beautiful evening, and while I appreciated the outdoor seating, it's right across from the metro station, so loud trains occasionally interrupted our conversation. Not something that would keep me from returning, but just something to know.

The service was wonderful. Our server was kind and present and on top of things.

As for the food, it was a mixed bag. They bring some complimentary cheese rolls to the table shortly after ordering, which was a nice treat. We started with the mixed green salad which was fine. Apples, blue cheese, etc... good stuff, but the salad wasn't anything special. I wouldn't order it again. For the main course, I had the burger, which I thought was quite good. The accompanying fries weren't great, though. Others at our table had the branzino and the mussels and weren't impressed.

Had a great dinner here before our concert at Ravinia. Our server, Tobyn, was friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. We had the Roasted Beets with goat cheese fritters, the Rigatoni, and the Eggplant Flatbread. It was all delicious!! And what a fun winelist.

My boyfriend and I come here frequently and Abigail's never disappoints! It’s our favorite place to eat out because of how exceptional the food and service is. You can tell this is a restaurant that really cares about the experience you have and somewhere you know you are in good hands. It’s pretty rare to not have even a small hiccup at a place you go to a lot, but somehow, they manage to nail it every single time.

Amazing place with great service and fantastic food. It was crowded when we went there on Saturday night, but that just added the energy to an already exciting ambiance.

This was the first time here and definitely will not be the last, starting off, our server was the best (Monica) she was attentive and was there each time we needed something, she was very personable and an assett to the restaurant. Next... the food (fairly priced)EVERYTHING was fresh, hot and DEELISH, and we were celebrating 2 birthdays, which each person got a birthday card signed by the staff, it was a nice touchI definitley recommend this place.
