Abacus...How Disappointing – Put me in the column of reviewers that say this is a highly overated restaurant that does not deserve its 'Five Star' Zagat rating. We were a party of two and we had booked our reservation a month in advance. The service was horrible. A party of sixteen booked a reservation one hour before being seated and our waiter, who happened to be the Wait Captain, was incapacitated when this party of sixteen was seated in our section. He was serving twenty people single-handed. We were having the nine cour... read more
Yum! Exceptional Service by a staff that really knows their stuff. Worth every penny and then some when it's this good. I thought the place had a cool lively vibe. The lobster shooters were as good as advertised.
Abacus—Tasteful Art! – We love the design of this place.. and the design of everything they present. Tastes so so SO good! This is one of the most respected and best downtown restaurants in Dallas P-E-R-I-O-D. My friends esteem all people who work here. Is it expensive? Yes, like so many on its level. Do they earn their way to the top of your list through hard work, attention to detail and excellence? Yes. Chef Kent Rathbun is a warmhearted, disciplined and extremely creative commander. Hey, he has got to be to keep pulling ... read more
Abacus World class is an understatement for this dining experience ....from the menu selections to the ambience. Nothing is bad. Food, service, parking all are flawless.
Eclectic five-star dining in a stylish atmosphere on McKinney. – The Scene The open layout includes plush indigo carpets, champagne-colored walls and burnt-orange ceilings, creating an urbane and chic canvas. Miro-inspired fabrics cloak semicircular booths. Fresh orchids, sexy lighting and noise-effacing fabrics make for intiate dining, even on a packed Monday night. The Food Lobster-scallion shooters are a signature; fried lobster dumpling and warm red chili-coconut sake sauce, downed in one shot. The ahi tuna roll is prese... read more
Great food and service – I called for a last minute reservation for an hour later. The hostess asked if it was for a special occasion and it was for my husband's birthday. We were seated promptly and the waiter was very nice. We had the lobster shooters (which are ok) but the Duck 3 ways was the best dish I've ever had. I would go there just to eat that (but I just saw on their new menu that they don't have it). even my husband who hates duck, loved it. It's been awhile since we were there so i don't remember what the entree... read more
Great food, good service – This was a very solid dining experience. We had several appetizers, including some interesting salads and really good foie gras. The steak I had was very tasty, with a truffle mashed potato that was good, but the texture wasn't quite where I'd want it. Their lamb was out of this world and the other sides were top notch. Service was very good, if once or twice a little inattentive. But nothing we had any problems with. Great help with the wine -- they actually gave us a bit better bottle for the sam... read more
The best in Dallas – My wife and I ventured to Abacus after seeing Trey on Top Chef. It was an instant for winner for us. We especially loved their nine course wine pairing, which was phenomenal. We love it considering it is high end, the food is fantastic and we can dress to the nines if we want, but we can also dress down a bit as well. This is one of our staples when we want to be pampered.
Abacus-fantastic! Abacus is a place everyine needs to try at least once. This restaurant has the best martini menu in Dallas. You cannot go wrong with any of the "small plates" and the main courses are phenomenal.
