    Lobster tail
    Julie T.

    We arrived and were promptly greeted and seated. Our server came to the table and provided glasses of water and took drink orders and offered assistance with the menu selections. We started with the Oyster appetizer which my husband enjoyed more than I did. The oysters were very chewy and I thought they were bitter, but he enjoyed the flavor - they were piping hot upon delivery. Next he had the surf and turf with Mushrooms and I had the 10oz ribeye with a baked potato and asparagus. We both ordered them medium rare- he stressed that he wanted his closer to rare. They arrived on piping hot skillets- mine was a tin cut and was cooked medium and became medium well due to being on the hot skillet. It was ok, but not what I expected. The asparagus was tough and stringy, but the potato was just right. My husband's steak was also medium and lacked flavor. The lobster looked beautiful, but was very tough and also very fishy. Mushrooms were sliced and texture was like canned mushrooms heated up. The bread brought with the meal was excellent. We both ate part of our meal and requested to go boxes and will be sharing the leftovers with our fur babies. My husband did order 2 old fashioneds, the first had sugar sitting on the bottom of the glass, that was difficult to stir in, he asked the server when he ordered the 2nd to have then add more simple syrup, but even then he had to request she get him more to add to it. Our server was fantastic and checked on us frequently, but my husband did not want to complain due to previous experience with how people respond. Sorry, but it will be a long time before we return here.

    Service was great! Our entrees were both delicious! My husband had the surf and turf and his lobster was good but a little chewy (to be expected) but his ribeye was cooked perfectly medium rare and sooo tender and delicious! I had the Mediterranean dish and I can't think of it's name but I believe it was called Cattlebells? They were soooo good on the rice w tazihiki (sp?) sauce. Tender and full of flavor! We had a running joke though... that they looked like Mr. Hanky the Christmas Poo. Don't be fooled, they are yummy!! We each had a beverage also both well made. The appetizers and side salads were a miss. We had the stuffed mushrooms and highly do not recommend. Not enough crap stuffing and didn't taste fresh at all. The side salad was pretty pathetic also. Between the service and the actual meal... you will not be disappointed! Best steaks!

    Fresh, hot right from the oven bread!

    This was a really great experience..I had the lamb chops with perfect seasoned asparagus.. He had a ribeye, also cooked perfect with a baked potato. We both had a side salad that was good too.. Our server, Breana was friendly, attentive and we needed for nothing. If we ever come through here again, we will definitely come back!

    When in Tenn, you have to sip JD right?

    Very good steaks and amazing bartender/staff! Definitely a small town gem! Had the 12 ounce ribeye + 12 year Jack Daniels!

    This was a surprisingly a great choice to be something off the Main Street there behind all the regular businesses. My husband was really impressed and said we would definitely be back. The food was good but my favorite part was the service. It was an eclectic little place too with lots of memorabilia to look at around the place. Try it out for yourself!

    Abe's is pretty good, the best thing being the honey butter. The portions are small but it's not overpriced. On occasion, the steaks are too tough, but I've never had a problem with them making it right. All in all Abe's is a well known dyersburg establishment and pretty good. Are there better? Of course, it's no Ruth's Cris. But it has a Nice environment, and when my family is back in the Dyersburg area we always go by there. Abe is always courteous, however, he did fire me as a dishwasher at 17. It was my fault tho!!! I never hold it against him. This restaurant is a part of everyone's childhood in the Burg!

    The best I've ever had the waitress was nice good service and will come back. I got the hamburger…read moresteak and the mash potatoes with gravy was delicious. The environment is wonderful.

    What a great little treasure just North of Dyersburg, TN. A friend recommended Lock's Store/Macye's…read moreGrill, so my husband and I made the 45 minute trip tonight. Check them out on Facebook. There are instructions for text ahead seating, which I strongly recommend. We did text ahead and were seated as soon as we walked inside. Our waitress, Sandy, was wonderful!!! The other employees were all super nice and they all made sure we were taken care of. Let me apologize now for my lack of pictures with this review. I did get some of their pics from FB to show the inside of the restaurant. We got so busy talking to our waitress and looking at the fun decor inside the restaurant and I failed to take food pics. We ordered the fried mushrooms as an appetizer and they were good (crispy on the outside and really juicy on the inside). My husband ordered the fried fish and he commented that it was some of the best fried fish he'd ever eaten. The seasoned batter was on point and the fish was not greasy at all. I got the hamburger steak with a loaded baked potato and it was delicious. Neither of us could finish our meals, so we came home with a to go box that my 16 year old son devoured when we got home...lol The back of the menu has the history of the restaurant and I enjoyed reading about it and looking at pictures of the original building that were hanging on the walls in the front waiting area. Remember to text ahead. Text your name and how many are in your party. They'll text you back the wait time and ask if you want to be added to the list. Remember it's not a reservation. Text ahead option is only available during hours in which we are open. Text number 1-731-445-2387 Thursday 3-9 Fri and Sat 11-10 5997 Millsfield Hwy Dyersburg, Tn To go order number 731-285-5335 Put this place on your list of Must Visit Restaurants and I assure you, you won't be disappointed!
