    I recently enjoyed a quiet Sunday dinner at Abigail's with my parents. My brother and sister in law and I had just discussed that Abigail's had stated to lose our interest lately.. never changing menu and usually no specials (however we all agreed that we still truly enjoyed brunch there)... and then Sunday dinner happened and i was again drawn into the restaurant's historical charm and beauty (truly Abigail's, the Soma Grill and The North House in Avon are among my favorites for atmosphere.. i do love Milwright's but the prices and portions are so ridiculous I refuse to go there). I ordered Lou's rigatoni and was extremely happy with this dish. My mother ordered the shrimp fettuccini but with rigatoni and was also very happy. It had an impressive amount of shrimp in it. My father ordered the roasted chicken dinner, and while he did enjoy it, he was disappointed in the portion size. I have to agree with him, they must've have used very young chickens this time. That all said, our waitress was amazing (I'm so sad I forgot her name, because I would definitely ask for her in the future). We were seated in the older are of the restaurant, in the front room with the windows and it was beautifully decorated with a few small Christmas trees . A side note I was told Abigail's had a very nice happy hour upstairs (love that historic & charming area of the restaurant), 3-6pm.. i don't remember the days, i think Wednesdays through Saturday? And my parents told me you can get their amazing burgers for $7, which is a huge savings. I hope Abigail's continues to offers specials for those of us who live locally and usually are regulars. I'm going to continue to patronize Abigail's ~ I've been coming here since I was a child so it holds may feel good memories for me. This is a great place to celebrate special occasions or for a special date.

    This was a tavern that had a large contemporary American menu. There was a lot to choose from. There were also two bars on both levels with plenty of seating at both. The service was well appreciated as one of our guests was a little difficult, but she took it in stride. The food also came out promptly. For appetizers, the Grande 2 seafood tower ($27) and crispy chicken wings ($16) were ordered. The seafood tower came with two colossal shrimp, two oysters, two clams, and lump crab meat. I was able to have the oyster, clam, and crabmeat. The oyster was good and appeared fresh as did the crabmeat. The clam was just okay, something about it. The wings came with a classic Buffalo sauce. I believe there were six to an order with considerable size to them. They were of good quality and cooked great. The sauce was tasty, but just not spicy enough. For an entrée, I had the redfish nouvelle ($29). It was lightly blackened topped with shrimp, scallops, mornay sauce, and baby spinach. There was also a side of house rice and coleslaw. This was nicely put together. The fish was seasoned appropriately as well as being a nice portion. The sauce was pleasant and not overdone, while the rice and coleslaw were nice compliments. It did not hurt to have a few pieces of the shrimp and scallops either. I also tried a piece of filet, which was cooked to a perfect medium rare. For dessert, the vanilla bean crème Brulee ($11) and chocolate croissant bread pudding ($11) were tried. The crème Brulee was great, light and not overly sweet with a hint of vanilla. The bread pudding came with vanilla ice cream. This was very good and unique with the croissant being used. I liked the flakiness of it, and it went nicely with the cool ice cream. It was lighter than a typical bread pudding too because of the croissant factor I believe. Will I go back? No doubt.

    Abigail's is located in Simsbury, Connecticut in an over 200 year old historic building with fireplaces and cozy vibes. I went there because I saw they had a great three course brunch menu which includes a breakfast cocktail, one breakfast entrée and also dessert for 25.95. There was a little bit of a wait in a Sunday afternoon so I suggest making a reservation or going a little later. The service was good and the food was good as well. I had the organic eggs scrambled with bacon, potatoes and toast. The potatoes had peppers and onions and were seasoned which I enjoyed. It was a very relaxing and cozy experience. For dessert I ordered the cheesecake and had complimentary coffee. It was a nice sweet ending.

    This cute little restaurant is right in Simsbury. There were multiple fire places going for a cozy feel. We sat at the bar, which seats maybe 10. There were seasonal and regular drink options, as well as cocktails. I had the zero proof raspberry margarita. The bartender was lovely with the cutest Australian (?) accent. The menu offers many options, as well as a pre fixe lunch. I opted for the California club, which had real slices of roasted turkey. My lunchmate had the chicken salad croissant. Both were fantastic, and came which cle slaw and fries. We were starving, so I forgot to photo them. This was a great spot, and I will definitely stop in again when in the area.

    The good was we had a great bartender from England that was so sweet and efficient. The bad, the happy hour food. When you go to happy hour at a nice restaurant, you are supposed to receive the same quality food, maybe in smaller portions or certain things that they can afford to give away at a cheaper price to entice you. You are not supposed to receive bottom of the barrel food. The burger was obviously a frozen patty that was of low quality. The only thing good about it was the sear on the outside, the roll was even close to being stale. The chicken tenders with buffalo sauce were very thin and obviously taking right from the freezer and heated up. Very disappointed. I thought we were dealing with a quality restaurant here, but I guess not. The drinks were fabulous!!

    Friday night vibes call for sitting at the bar, enjoying a drink, a few bites, and good company! This was my first time at Abigail's, and I really enjoyed it. Even though it was super busy, we were lucky to grab a spot at the bar. The drinks were fantastic, and I tried the Gluten-Free Bolognese pasta, which was excellent! A heads-up for those with dietary restrictions: while the menu isn't labeled with gluten-free items, they do offer GF pasta and pizza. However, they're transparent about potential cross-contamination with certain items, so be sure to ask if needed. Overall, a great spot for a night out!

    Abigail's never disappoints! Love the atmosphere and history. Food is amazing. Great Pre Fix meals available a couple nights a week. I suggest you do a reservation if you do a weekend. Great for a couple dining experience, family or just hanging out with the girls!!

    Tuscan chicken salad. Looks pink because it's under a red umbrella!

    It's been a while since we stopped here for lunch. Don't know why we've waited because it's really great. A very nice patio and the interior tables are interestingly arranged in a series of rooms in an historic tavern. The menu is interesting and varied. We had the Tuscan chicken salad and the California Club. Both were delectable and generous. The service was spot on.

They have a beautiful, spacious interior, with such a warm feel from all of the exposed wood. In the warmer months their outdoor patio is open.

These were crispy, with goat cheese, crushed pecans and dates. These were excellent! The roasted beet salad was a bit odd. I couldn't find a single beet. It wasn't bad, it had a ton of kale. The winner was Ahi Tuna Bowl. This had rice, avocado, cucumber, edamame and tuna, topped with sriracha. This was flavorful, tasty and a generous portion. I would return here again.

For my meal I ordered the Chicken Parmigiana and a 10 inch Pepperoni Pizza. The chicken was breaded perfectly and covered in the most delicious sauce and melted cheese. The pizza was just as amazing with a great crust and plenty of pepperoni. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and the portions were great.

The vodka sauce was creamy and flavorful without being too heavy, the chicken was cooked well, and the portion was HUGE.

We started our dinner with the garlic Parmesan Tuscan wings - so crispy, so flavorful - and the truffle fries - crispy outside and pillow inside, just enough truffle flavor. For the main course, I got the Valentine special - sirloin and lobster. The most I can say about it is that it was filling. The sirloin was cooked well, but the meat was just tough. The lobster was also on the small side and stuck to the shell ( a good portion of the meat was missed because I wasn't allowed to eat like a savage). For $42, I could have made a better choice. My wife got the pork chops - now that was a good pick! The glaze was sweet, but not too sweet, and she even enjoyed the squash (which she rarely eats). For dessert, I got the tiramisu, which was again okay, nothing spectacular. My wife enjoyed the valentine dessert (a red velvet cake with cream cheese and covered in chocolate). The biggest flaw I saw is their seating arrangement - we felt very claustrophobic. For parties of two, they have a huge series of benches with a tiny table and chairs on the other side. We were initially seated between two couples (one of which was the end), and they moved their table so my tiny wife can squeeze in between to sit on the bench. I'm so glad they left soon after and we asked to take their seat. I regret some of my choices, and should have tempered my expectations, mistaking this place as a fancy restaurant. It was a decent experience, perhaps shaded by a busy Friday date night.
