★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Danielle M (Mama Bear) · Jan 2026

Upon entering Gabe’s, we were genuinely excited to dine here, as we had previously enjoyed visiting the Douglasville location. The service was attentive and welcoming, and the atmosphere was polished and inviting. Unfortunately, while the experience started strong, the food did not quite meet our expectations. We ordered the gumbo, a Caesar salad, a goat cheese salad, Gabe’s burger, and the GHE. The gumbo lacked clarity of flavor, both salads were lightly dressed and felt underwhelming, and while the burger itself was decent, the fries tasted as though the fryer oil may have been past its prime. The chicken in the GHE was quite thin and ended up being dry. I share this feedback because we truly wanted to enjoy this meal and see the food rise to the level of the service and ambiance. Ther

I came to Gabe’s to celebrate my uncle’s 86th birthday with a party of six, several of whom were first-time guests. We ordered an appetizer, which arrived in a reasonable amount of time, and then placed our entrée orders. After that, we waited nearly an hour and a half for our food. During this time, we watched multiple tables seated well after us receive their meals. The manager visited every other table in our section but never checked on ours. Our server was absent for long stretches and eventually explained that a large party’s order had been placed ahead of ours. Appetizer plates sat piled on the table, untouched, as we waited.

Waited over and hour to be seated. Order the rib-eye dinner. No steak sauce meal does not come with a salad. Steal was burnt. Do not waste your time food is way to salty.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 April Cook · Mar 2026

I ordered the duck meat that I usually get every time I go to Gabe’s. I took 2 bites and that was literally all I could eat. I used to love this dish, but it wasn’t good at all this time. Not sure if they have a different cook or not. My husband ordered the catfish and didn’t enjoy it either. I feel like something has changed. This used to be our favorite spot to eat. Very disappointed
