The view overlooking the sound at sunset was spectacular and the crab roll was delicious (they even garnished it with little edible flowers).

Get there early, prepare to be turned away if your group doesn't match available seating. Not your typical lobster pound. But great food and drink options and the views to match!
The feeling you get at this place is quintessential and effortless main. Very strong showing of beer and wine to accompany fresh lobster. Don't miss hanging out by the campfire ? for the eve after dinner!

Great views and very friendly staff. I got the lobster roll on gluten free roll, and it was good but the GF bread option crumbled immediately and made it impossible to eat. The lobster was great quality but had too much aioli for my taste, and this place is pricey.
Dietary restrictions: They have a GF lobster roll option but the bread was too crumbly and immediately fell apart

Came here many times during my summer working on MDI. Always had delicious food and the atmosphere is hard to beat! Right on the water. It’s also a great spot to catch the sunset. I’ve had different servers each time and all were great.
Parking: Easy and readily available parking at the restaurant.

Came here with my mother. It was our first son and mom trip in 15 years and I wanted to buy her an impressive lunch. but because my mom had cholesterol problems, we had one place to visit, and I'm glad Abel's was the place we chose to dine in. Hannah served us -she was super sweet and gave us great recommendations.
So after all that, the food, service, wait time, the view, and everything else, Abel's contribution to making a memorable son & mom trip will be appreciated for a very long time.

Might be the best Lobster Pound on Mount Desert Island. This is my fifth trip up here over the past 11 years, and my first time finding this place. It will now be my first stop on future trips. The restaurant is hidden behind some large buildings, but there are plenty of signs to help you find it. The outdoor dining area is laid back, the fire pit at night is a great way to stay warm and chat with other diners, and the curved bar area is perfect for watching the sunset. Pretty awesome seeing the fresh ocean water being pumped into the lobster tanks. Inside the restaurant, every table has a fantastic view and the food is the absolute best. Service was wonderful and the bartender was very knowledgeable and even recommended a twist on one of our drinks and proceeded to make an amazing cocktail.

During my vacation in Maine, I asked a local resident to recommend a place where I would be comfortable going to alone and where I could experience an amazing Maine lobster dinner. I am so grateful that the recommendation was for Abel’s Lobster. The grounds, the people, the food was outstanding! I encourage everyone to go!!!

We simply wanted to place a take out the order and these guys were clueless. It's like they don't want your money. How they stay in business...
