"Great all around Mainey experience. Lovely chill setting, very friendly and accommodating staff. The lobster chowder way exceeded my expectations in unique taste profile. Everyone was happy with lobster roll and fish and chips. Will definitely come back when it?s warmer to eat outside! Does get super packed!"

Where do I even begin. This experience was flawless. Right when we sat down, I knew I was in for a treat. The views are amazing! I?ve included a few pictures in my review to showcase what I mean! Wow! Our waiter was awesome. He mentioned he lived in Portland for some time last year. He was extremely personable and very knowledgeable around each dish. Perfect service. The food was awesome. A few of us got lobster and it was incredibly fresh and everything you?d want from a Maine lobster. ? The steamers were the best I have had. Steak was cooked how we wanted it. The home made lemon ice cream sandwiches stole the show for dessert. Drinks were great. I got the smoked old fashioned and it was do...

This place was the most perfect secret find! Based off the number of locals present in the restaurant, Abel's is a quality, non-touristy spot. It serves the most delicious lobster rolls I've ever had with huge chunks of lobster. The staff was very friendly (our party included a toddler and two babies) and prompt. The cocktails were delicious (and beautiful), and they had a decent beer menu. The blueberry pie is good, but the house made maple whipped cream it comes with is better. And then on top of all of that, every table in the restaurant boasts a beautiful view of the water. Prices are decent as Bar Harbor goes. We went early towards opening and were seated right away, but the wait list b...

Came up the sound on our boat and stayed a few nights. My husband and I had dinner here and it was a fantastic experience! The atmosphere is very relaxing as it is tucked on the hill side overlooking the water. The staff, and general manager we're very attentive. The food was amazing. Lobster, Steamers, cornbread......cannot say enough. That was one of the freshest, tastiest lobsters I have had in a long time. The only complaint I have was that in the late afternoon the dining room is hot and stuffy(most customers eat outside). They need to open the windows and close the shades before the restaurant opens. I highly recommend this if you are the Acadia park area of Maine.

I ordered takeout for lunch for a lobster roll, and was pleasantly surprised it came with fries and not a bag of chips like most other places. This roll was the most upscale of all of the ones I tried on the island, and had microgreens on top of the roll. The fries were hand cut and even came with the perfect size dipping container of ketchup. The location is so nice outside with all the picnic tables overlooking the water, and they had chairs outside which was a nice place to wait for my roll. Overall really great roll and meal!
