My husband and I are visiting from out of town and had the best experience! Emma A was lovely! She was extremely attentive, personable and her recommendations were on point. She was also great with our dog, honey, and even gave her a milk bone :) We had the crab fritters, mussels and fried clams and everything was delicious. If you’re looking for a place with good food and a beautiful view, Abel’s Lobster is the place to go!

What a gem! The food and drinks were perfection! I had the Halibut that was caught that day. It was seriously the best I have ever had. My husband, who is incredibly picky about his lobster said it was top 3. The atmosphere is super chill and the view is stunning. Our server, Sandy was so knowledgeable and so sweet. She made great recommendations and spent time chatting with us about our vacation and made our 7 year old daughter feel super fancy with a Shirley Temple. If you are in the area….you must stop at Abel’s!

Everything here was fantastic! Waitress was so friendly, food and drinks were great! I think this was the best lobster I had in Maine!

Great food and service. The best view for outdoor seating. Good weather is key.

On rare occasions a restaurant gets everything right, and this warmly informal place nestled next to Somes Sound is a perfect lobster-and-other-yummy-things experience. The lobster itself is so fresh it melts in your mouth, and the rest of food our group ordered was also terrific. We loved the outdoor spaces, with the smell of woodburning fires wafting over our table and the sun setting beyond the boats and water. The crowd was convivial and the service was super friendly and real - big thanks to Emma A., who made the dinner even more fun. Can't recommend more strongly for a coastal Maine meal.

Abel’s is a fantastic place for Lobster. The service staff is great and the food is better. I HIGHLY recommend eating here. Check out their boiling station near the water. This is a must visit.
Fantastic food - the cocktails were perfectly crafted, steamers were the best I've had in ages, fish was incredibly fresh. Everyone was welcoming & service was excellent. Cannot beat the harborside ambience at sunset!

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!
