Solid retro aesthetic. Decent drinks in a dark, moody spot. Loved our bartender. Great stop in our night out.

I've been ordering their vegetarian sticky wings for some time now, and every time it's delicious. Honestly, my fav vegetarian wings in NYC. Dumplings were not as great, but when I tried the "mushroom mapo chili cheese tots", I couldn't believe the flavor and texture of the mushrooms. I thought it was meat. Really well done.

Perfect spot for a late night bite and drink. Came after an event near by. This spot is located in a busy street so I was glad to get to a place where we could sit down and eat (outside of the multiple food trucks parked near by). The wings were great, super flavorful. We also got the loaded tots with mushrooms, happy to see they have veg options as well and even salad. There is seating up front, in the back and outside so tons of options. Even tho it was pretty busy was still easily able to order at the bar and get served pretty quick. Their drinks were pretty good as well, had to go for their passion fruit drink and honestly did not regret it.

My friends and I came here on a Saturday night. It was pretty busy, but the bar is fairly large and there was room on the dance floor! The DJ was good; he mostly played remixes of 80s - 00s hits. Fun place to get a drink and dance; I'd definitely come back.

Precursor: I don't like dive bars. ... but Abe's didn't give off the same vibes as all the others. There's some tiki themed decor, so a bit of that feeling - but not overwhelming. The bar had a cool deep red light coming from behind the alcohol bottles which was definitely cool. Good variety of beers on tap. The back room has a decent amount of space if you're in a medium group. And yes, the other reviews are right - their fries were just like McDonalds fries. I would go back to Abe's fosho

First time here was unintentional, March 2022? Had birthday plans elsewhere but that place was eerily empty, so we spontaneously came here instead. Loved the billiards, the open back area for a group of friends, affordable prices. Saw the vegan options and knew we had to come back; our friends ordered the Gochujang wings and they smelled too good to not want to try the vegan cauliflower. Summer 2022 we came back for the wings... they're $6 during HH, so we ordered the real wings and the cauliflower. HOLY HELL. So damn good. Two years later, and these are still my guilty cravings, even though there's nothing guilty about them. They updated their menu to $1 HH wings, and the cauliflower are always abundant. They added sweet thai chili and can't wait to try those. We also come for the most affordable frozens in BK - they used to be $8 on HH but now they're $10, still a good deal and strong. They tend to change the flavors up, every month or so, and love that they're always vegan. Most recently they were pina Colada, lychee rosé and passionfeuit marg. Our favorite was a pistachio frozen and wow. That was a boozy milkshake heaven. They also have $3 HH tecates and $8 beer/shot combos. Both are crowd pleasers. We've also heard great things about their regular menu (elote eggrolls are high on our list) and with the various vegan options, I'm a happy camper. Circling back - I need to talk more about their cauliflower wings. As a longtime veg eater, I've had so many fried cauliflower wings, most being buffalo. But these. Whoa. These BY FAR have the best breading, and it doesn't fall off. It holds the sauce, and doesn't fall apart when you use a fork. The cauliflower is still crisp too - not overly "steamed" to where it's mush. I've (half) joked I want a kitchen job here just to learn the recipe. Best fried cauliflower in all BK. For vegans/vegetarians, come just for these.

Relatively low prices as far as NYC bars are concerned, so that is always a plus. The somewhat spacious, stylish (in a glam rock way, not a society way) bar fills up with people on weekend nights especially, but their happy hour deals are worth trying. The food is consistently decent. I've had their fried chicken sandwich several times and just tried the Yakitori Momo (grilled chicken skewers), priced at $10, last night. Is it a lot of food? No, it's more of a snack, but it was good and paired well with the sweet chili sauce they served alongside it. The menu is varied enough that I would think it includes something for most people. They have pool tables in the back as well as more seating. It's always rather dark, which is comfortable. DJs man the helm regularly, and it's a bit loud, but you can still attempt conversation. Overall, I think Abe's is one of the better hangouts in Brooklyn, and, as it's kitty-corner from the L train at Dekalb, it's not hard to find.

Came here tonight Sunday 10/29 around 5:30pm. They were short staffed with one person working the bar and one in the kitchen. Nobody greeted me or mentioned I had to order at the bar- the two other times I've been they had table service. Other than that, things were just as I remember, cheap, tasty food and strong drinks. The frozen espresso martini was just okay, I didn't personally love it. My friend and I sat in a booth in the back. Love the ambiance here. Being short staffed, they only had tater tots, cheeseburgers, and fries available. The burger and fries were good. More mezcal/tequila drinks would be great. I really enjoy this place and it was so nice to come back after not going for ages.
