What fred mann likes about Abel's Cantina:
We went there to see a blues band that was fantastic. Other than that, I wasn't impressed. The service was slow but friendly, and the whole place in general lacked any real ambiance. The food was OK, but nothing to rave about. View all feedback. What Dan Oppenheim doesn't like about Abel's Cantina:
the hours of operation are that of a bar which makes sense because the quality of food is honestly some of the worst I've experienced. after going to ables for 20 years, the last 7 years I have not been able to get through a steak taco without feeling queezy. sorry, childhood staple, but really needs to get a better quality of food View all feedback.

Worst mexican food I have ever seen or tried to eat. They put a slice of unmelted provolone on the outside of a burrito.

Very good drinks. The Miller light was in a frosty mug and super cold and fresh. We had enchiladas and nachos which were very good.
