“I love KAO Lounge!! The staff there are friendly, knowledgeable, kind, and hardworking. I’m not one who goes out to drink often, but when I do go, I always suggest KAO. I love the vibe and I feel safe being there. I’ve had the privilege of working with KAO when I was with the Abilene Philharmonic and they were always reliable. (Again, because I don’t drink often and I get the exact same drink 99% of the time) I highly recommend them just because they’re amazing. Yes, their drinks are good, but they are just overall good people. Ps. Kaleb and Colby are the best!”

“The atmosphere is very pleasant. As I am a fairly new wine drinker, they were more than happy to guide me in selecting products that are right for me. They offer a daily Veteran's/First Responder discount and 20% off bottles on Friday. I look forward to grabbing a bottle of their Malbec on Fridays. So far it tastes much better than higher priced Malbecs I've tried.”

“came to shop and get food! got a combo went to the fountain drinks and they were ALLL out. just ice in one of them and when we went to tell them they said grab a can drink. later we told someone because we felt bad for everyone else that didn’t know because the cashier wasn’t telling anyone. later we over heard someone say “they want us to take down the signs (only 2) on the fountain drink machine” literally didn’t care that people were so confused on why it wasn’t working. BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE!! STEP IT UP especially if we are paying 40+ $$ for memberships!!!”

“Seeing the stories of others who also fall victim to crypto investment scam tears me out badly. I remembered when I was in that same situation it wasn't really easy for me, but I was lucky enough to find my way to Helen Stamford who was so patient with me to explain all that happened and immediately she swing into action and recovered my lost funds to me. If you can provide receipt to all your transactions, you can recover your money. Email: helenstamford5@g mail. com she is a life saver.”

“Love their grilled pork chops.”

“I ordered the fish sandwich and a salad to go. THE Fish sandwich had way too much mayonnaise and no bjalapeño coleslaw as advertised. Also. The fish was a good size The salad had no dressing with it. I really don't know who would eat salad without salad dressing”

“I got the brisket frito pie it was great”

“From the moment we walked in we felt welcomed. The staff were friendly & helpful. We explained it was our first time, so they walked us through the menu & explained everything is cooked to order, so it might take a few minutes to come out. She also explained that there were free peanuts we could munch on while waiting for our food. The food came out hot, fresh & delicious. You could tell the staff loved their jobs. We were visited by the lady who took our order and another gentleman who wanted to make sure we were happy. The prices were unbelievably affordable at just under $6, I believe, I got the Queso burger, which they gave me a knife & fork to eat with because there was so much queso on it. We don't live in town, but when we are in the area, we will go out of the way to eat here.”

“We stopped by during a vacation in Abilene. It has the yummiest coffee + best atmosphere inside and out! We were able to go out to a grassy area for our children to play while we enjoyed delicious coffee! They even explained the menu and helped me pick, it was perfect!”

Best coffee in town, great prices, good ppl & great service. Also, a very neat atmosphere that has a magical balance to it. Areas that are ideal for cozy relaxation, unwinding & escaping....while still being a great spot for meetings, working & socializing.”

“Loved the place. Drinks are good food is great. Waited too long to try, now we will be going often.”

“I love Statesman Coffee (Treadaway) and always enjoy my dirty chai latte. However, my recent visit left me a bit disappointed. Today, I ordered my usual latte and noticed that it was noticeably less than full— it only had less than 3/4..the rest was foam. Considering my past experiences here, I assumed it was just an off day and decided to reach out to the staff to let them know about the issue. I don’t remember who I spoke with but she was incredibly understanding and apologetic about the situation. She acknowledged the mistake and offered to remake our drinks right away. Unfortunately, I was already at work and could not take the time to go back. Instead, she promptly refunded my money without hesitation. While the initial disappointment of receiving less than a full cup of coffee was there, I truly appreciate the way Statesman handled the situation. Their customer services was top notch - they listened, apologized sincerely, and took immediate action to make things right. Mistakes can happen anywhere, but it’s how a business responds to those mistakes that truly sets them apart. I’ll continue to frequent Statesman for their great coffee and now, even more so, for their exceptional customer care!”

“Larry's Better Burger is a hidden gem… and by ‘hidden,’ I mean it’s tucked right next to a graveyard, so it has a killer ambiance. The burgers are juicy, flavorful, and suspiciously unforgettable. Rumor has it that they get the meat from very local sources, ?if you catch my drift. But don’t let that spook you—each bite is so good, you won’t care where it came from!

Just remember: if you taste a little extra soul in your meal, it’s probably all part of the secret recipe. And when you're done? Just give a nod to the graveyard, because who knows... you might be coming back for seconds one way or another!”

“As a local Abilenian for over 36 years now, this place is the definition of soul. From the moment I walked in the environment was great while the staff were friendly and helpful. I ordered the jerk chicken which was so tender it just melted off the bone. Served with great rice, flavorful cabbage and a side of tangy sauce. The chicken is done so well that the sauce is absolutely unnecessary if your like me and prefer just the smoky, seasoned flavors. I'll leave you with this, it was so good I had to order another breast just to try one more and I was happy to do so. Pricing is fine and above all else, in this time and era I feel we all can agree, supporting a local family owned business just feels good. These guys deserve it and much more. I hope their success continues to grow. CHECK IT OUT !!!”

“Bbq addict here! First off amazing and friendly service! Quick and boiiiiii lemme tell you about those RIBS and Brisket!!! Fall apart quality with a delicious bark! Smoked to perfection 100% recommend!”

“Love this place. Fun, great staff, excellent pizza, salads, and value for your money. Now, the bad. I hate every available seating surface. The metal chairs suck and are wildly uncomfortable. The only less comfortable chair I can imagine are the stools. Let’s not forget the picnic table designed for 6 year olds. Get new chairs. Find ones with pads and seats larger than a paperback book. Other than that, great place!”

“Me and my kids went and got a banana split and a waffle cone with 2 scoops. The portions were enjoyable and the produce was fresh. The staff was friendly and the dine in experience was a pleasant local ice cream shop. It was homey and a breathe of fresh air! Thank you Mary’s!!”

“Soft, Fresh, Hot Flour Tortillas sold by the pack! I buy a pack every visit. The Beef Fajita Burrito with their Salsa Verde (green) is my favorite. Today I added a Puffy Taco with ground beef. Tasty! Counter Service and normally eat inside. C19 precautions so we ate in our truck. This Fort Worth Girl loves La Pops every time I am in town.”

“We ate here today for the first time and will absolutely be back! Our waitress, Amy #1 was incredible, personable, prompt and on top of things. Her customer service and skills were top notch. Pops greeted us and made our first experience welcoming and phenomenal. My husband was thrilled to chat with Pops. The food, rolls, chicken, catfish and sides was AMAZING! We live in the DFW area but are staying in Abilene for the next 3 months. We will certainly be frequent dinners of Belle’s. If you are looking for a hidden gem, with incredible food, amazing hospitality then Belle’s is the place to go when in Abilene or just passing through.”

“visited last week with my husband and we tried the milk alternative and man was it good!”

“My husband and I went to Miguel's for the first time today. The brisket tips were amazing as well as our server Andrew. Will definitely go back and recommend Miguel's to everyone.”

“I highly recommend this place. The owner is very kind and offered my child & I a free meal as we are facing a difficult time. Very sweet & kind lady!!”

“While out and about with my daughter we decided to venture somewhere new for a sweet treat. We came across Caitie Pies and boy it was such a treat. The atmosphere, staff, and Caitie herself were literally icing on the cake. The exemplary customer service and relaxing atmosphere made me wonder how I didn't know they existed for nearly 2 years. Their homemade pies are simply incredible and the best I have ever had. Highly recommend as I know everyone will love this cafe as much as I do. Caitie, thank you for all the special touches - it is easy to see all the hard work and dedication you put into your business.”

“Omg!! I Suggest if you are visiting Abilene Texas you must make a pitstop you won’t be disappointed the food is outstanding and they give you a great quantity this is true authentic Mexican food great prices! I always have to visit when I’m in town ❤️”

“Food was amazing. I've had their burritos before so decided to try their flautas plate and will definently get them again. Food is great and people are nice!”

“Love La Pop! They have the best burritos and lemonade in town!”

“Ivory, Bryan, and Emily are absolutely incredible and amazing they make the best drinks based off your taste and take your preferences into consideration when making suggestions”

“Great place to chill and watch the games or listen to live music”

“Great atmosphere and good drinks.”

“(copy and pasted from my Google review) Tried Joe's for the first time this evening for take out. We got a NY style pizza with Alfredo sauce, spinach, and mushrooms. It was absolutely wonderful! Very fresh and as if the ownerscooks understood the taste profile. Loved it. Also had the focaccia, it isn't like I was expecting but it did NOT disappoint. I loved the blast of garlic and herbs, the mozzarella was so good. Tried the Pasta Samper (Lasagna, Pene Pasta, Manicotti) I love the amount of cheese that covered the dish. The stuffing in the manicotti was so creamy and smooth. I really enjoyed the beef in the dish is well very flavorful and cooked well. The salad with the house dressing is simply delightful. I could tell they were very busy this evening and even then they did not skip out on customer service and making sure the orders were right. No corners cut here. The food was hot, fresh, and overall a wonderful experience. Thank you for this amazing meal will definitely be back. Would love to try the stuffed pizza, calzone, or even Tarimissu next time. (I was tempted but already had plenty of food to sample) Keep up the great work definitely a great value especially with the cost of inflation these days and having to choose wisely where to go when dining out. I can't say enough great things about y'all. Even my partner who is part Italian on their father's side loved the sauce.”

“A great place to hangout to study and play a game and good coffee”

“I love the staff and how attentive they are! They fulfill my requests and make me feel like I’m family and not just a paying customer. Rebekah and Lydia are so wonderful. Keep up the great work!”

“The food here is always delicious and the customer service is amazing. Today I had an encounter with the GM at this location, an amazing person to deal with. He showed me a great act of kindness that really made my crappy week turn around. Thank you!”

“A quick and overall good experience! I went in like 5 minutes before they closed and they were super sweet and didn’t complain at all! I loved the service and would definitely recommend, the ice cream and the people are great! I love getting the plain waffle bowl in the love it size and it’s a perfect serving size!”

“Never had a bad experience here. The steak fingers are the best in town. The service is always respectful and these guys don't miss a beat. I recommend this spot for any occasion. Lunch time may seem busy when you pull up but the wait is very short.”

“Shout out to Taco Casa Abilene on Buffalo Gap Road. We went and ate lunch and everything was great. I’m picky and like a bean burrito with not a ton of beans and the kitchen showed me the burrito before rolling it to see if that was how I wanted it. Then a man that worked there I guess noticed I didn’t finish my food and brought me a sack to take it home with me so it was easier to carry since I had a baby with me, he did this without me saying a word about needing one just thinking he’d make things easier on me to carry. So thoughtful. The place was super clean and the environment was great unlike anything I’ve seen elsewhere. They take pride in what they’re putting out and you don’t see that much nowadays especially in fast food.”

“Excellent customer service, food, and drinks! I'm addicted to their smoothies with boba. ❤️”

“My favorite pizza place, it’s the best”

“The batista was so incredibly kind. I'm 38 wks pregnant and hypoglycemic and indecisive. She was so patient with me and gave lots of suggestions. I ended up getting two drinks because I had never had a lavender latte before. I ended up getting the Lavender Haze latte.
The batista was very helpful in helping slightly lower the sugar of the drink while maintaining the integrity of the flavor. (I really dislike sugar-free) It's actually really good. The espresso is not to bitter. I'll probably regret it when my sugar drops in a couple of hours, but right now, it's really hitting the spot. Very delicious.
I also got the hibiscus tea. Which isn't anything special. It tasts perfectly refreshing as it should.”

“My husband and I came here for breakfast this morning and we were highly pleased. He and I have been to many places here in town for breakfast, and no one else has been as welcoming and attentive. Rachel was our server and she did an awesome job of checking up on us and bringing us all that we needed.”

“I have some friends with Czech roots that have told me for years I needed to try a REAL kolache. Today, I tried the strawberry and apricot kolaches from Bear’s Bake Shop and they were so delicious! It was super easy to order, pay, and pick up. I will definitely be getting more!”

“Oh my goshhh it was delicious. The zucchini bread was amazing, the Wisconsin cheese soup was AMAZING, chicken salad AMAZING!
I came for my birthday I had never been before, now I’m gonna have to make this a monthly thing”

“The Bao was an acceptable starter, they were a bit dry on the inside, not quite a soup bun.

The ramen itself is what we came here for.

A+ for toppings. Plenty of bean sprouts and fish cakes, they even had the little spiral. Carrots and corn, sadly no bamboo.

A+ for broth. Both the tonkutsu and black garlic tonkutsu boths were rich and full of flavor.

A+ on the pork, juicy, well seasoned, as you would expect.

The surprising thing, the noodles appeared to be made in store. Very long and krinkled and had a tell tale taste of freshly made. Most places use packaged noodles, so this was a great surprise.”
