Abel Brown Southern Kitchen & Oyster Bar

Me and a friend went there yesterday for my 21st birthday and we had James as our sever. I enjoyed everything. He was knowledgeable. He was funny and I overall had a great experience with him. We only had a drink, app and dessert but even that came out quickly. I really enjoyed it.

Overall a mid experience made delightful by great service. Our waiter Nick has only been there for 8 months but he had incredible knowledge of the menu and ingredients (and what he didn't know, he checked with the chef and got back to us). Our table got the crab cake appetizer and for entrees swordfish and porkchop. The crab cakes were absolutely delicious. I would go back for them. My husband enjoyed the swordfish and had a clean plate by the end of his meal. My porkchop was cooked to death and the prawns were so burnt and rubbery. Not worth the $20 add on. I felt so conflicted about returning the meal but for the price, I needed something I enjoyed. My server thanked us for the honesty and the manager brought out what was initially my second choice, short ribs. Now THOSE are something to

What an incredible time we had me and my husband had to tonight. Service was incredible - Terran could teach a master class on service. His great personality, attention to details and just over all service manner enhanced the atmosphere and the food. Food was delicious. Love the design. (Love everything except for the uncomfortable side chairs that don’t seem to go with the beautiful design). Will definitely drive down from Columbia again to dine at Abel Brown.

From start to finish, our dining experience was absolutely exceptional. The service and atmosphere were both top tier — warm, inviting, and perfectly balanced between upscale and comfortable. Our waiter, Michael, was truly the best! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, and every one of his recommendations hit the mark. The cocktails were superb — beautifully balanced and crafted with care. The raw oysters were amazing — fresh, perfectly chilled, and bursting with flavor. The crab cake was phenomenal, packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. We split the swordfish, which was tender, fresh, and absolutely delicious. To top it all off, we had the bread pudding for dessert, and it was the perfect sweet ending — rich, warm, and melt-in-your-mouth good. Can’t recommend this place en

Wow. The staff at Abel Brown truly make the magic happen. My friend and I had dinner here recently for her 18th birthday and it was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we were greeted by the hostess, to the time we left we experienced nothing but true hospitality. They gifted us a complementary entree, in which they made into two mini portions for us to split. The oysters were phenomenal and the desserts were delicious. Our waiter, Billy, took exceptional care of us and made sure we felt comfortable the whole evening. If you dine here request for Billy or Michael. We will definitely be back!
