- Social News NetworkJune 17, 2012Order: Texas tea and Cali chicken. Two drinks tops. Sit outside and look out over Lake Austin. Also, there is a place to dock your boat if you don't feel like driving!
- Kevin W.August 5, 2013There was a mix up in communication between the manager & server. After waiting 10 mins for service, the server did a great job making up for the mistake. Great chicken fried steak sandwich!
- Samantha SmithApril 4, 2017Great place to watch a game and enjoy good weather. Fish tacos are a solid choice as is the John daly. Great beer selection
- Shoshanna MathewsAugust 23, 2020Food was great! Husband got a sandwich, fishnchips for me, & crab cakes for the bestie. 4 year old got the most amazing macncheese EVER!!
- Guaca MollyMay 16, 2017bring your own celery, lemons, limes, olives, and seasoning of you plan on a bloody. Their version is what you'd expect in flight.
- mary catherine burfordJune 29, 2012had one of the best waiters i've ever had here- with a party of 8 girls, no less! try the dr. pepper pulled-pork sandwich.
- Nice place to have a drink or meal by the lake. The fried pickles are tasty and the Texas Tea is a great.
- Julie HertenbergerDecember 7, 2019We are hoping the fish and chips is delicious. The Texas Tea is good😃
- If you jump off the upper deck, be sure to do a belly flop. Otherwise, R.I.P.
- Sahal MerchantOctober 21, 2015The starters alone are huge portions. You won't need to order a main course.
- Elijah JamesAugust 20, 2013Don't get the chips with your order. They are chewy. Other than that my dr pepper pulled pork sandwich was awesome.
- Social News NetworkJune 30, 2012Dock your boat and enjoy a nice meal while over looking the lake, but whatever you do, don't get the raw oysters!
- Bring your friends and come sit in my section! I'll make sure you get excellent service!
- Orcun GogusSeptember 1, 2012Nice place to hang out by the lake and a good beer selection but do not ever order Fish 'n Chips from the menu, I think it was the most horrible thing I ever ate..
- Austin AMASeptember 19, 2012Beer and conversations on entrepreneurism! A truly stimulating #AustinAMA event w/ @hopsandgrain @austinbeerworks and @indybrewing here at Abel's On The Lake! :) #Austin #Marketing
- Raymond Lopez AlemanMarch 12, 2014Getting a simple soda takes 10+ minutes if you come here for dinner. Hostess looks mad too... #akwardrestaurant
- Not dig friendly anymore. As of 3/31/12, Abel's no longer allows dogs on their patio.... Found out by bringing dog and having to head back home and come back, and deal with parking twice. What gives?
- Good food, good customer service, amazing view. Can't ask for much else!
- Try the vodka/ lemonade/ beer thing. It is fantastic!!!
- Social DistilleryMarch 8, 2012If you're here for the Upper Deck Social Panel and want to continue the conversation on Twitter, reach out @SocialDistiller! Happy SxSW-ing :)
- Guaca MollyMay 16, 2017Service makes you feel like you're at a frat party, literally surrounded by underage drinking .
- Matt KettlerSeptember 26, 2012Ask for the free chips and ranch! Skip the fried pickles. They aren't "the tits". Half the beer selection is unavailable. Oysters on 1/2 shell were $30/dozen! Wtf?! Had high hopes, left disappointed.
- Try the Blanche de Bruxelles if you like a good Belgium white or wheat beers
- Ask for potato chips and ranch. It's not on the menu, but it's FREE!! Yum
- Dana MeyersJune 3, 2010Absolutely get the Austin Burger. It's topped with goat cheese, avocado, red onions, tomato, and lettuce, and it's amazing.
- Lindsay TaylorJune 10, 2011Enjoy an Abita Purple Haze! One of the only places in Austin that has it on tap!
- Raymond Lopez AlemanMarch 12, 2014Worst restaurant in Austin, drinks take about 10 minutes to get during dinner. 50min, food never came. Had to wait 10 minutes to pay for my drinks then leave. most HORRIBLE Restaurant experience ever
