I used to love this place, as a destination whenever I visited the Cape from San Francisco. I looked forward to the food which is good. However I have reached a point of no return. Last time I was there, I arrived at 5:30pm, the restaurant was empty, I asked to be seated outdoors and I was told that they... more

Was it the over hype? Or the perfectly spectacular falafel i can get everyday on the street in NY? Abba was just OK. Yes, it is the best restaurant in Orleans. But for what it is....thai and middle eastern is the cheap go-to lunch/take out in the city...I was a little stunned over the bill-400 bucks for 4 people. more

My husband and I enjoyed Abba tremendously. We ordered a bottle of wine from a very extensive wine list and shared the falafel appetizer. They also bring out a delicious bread with a sampling of various olives. My husband's scallops were absolutely melt in your mouth. I ordered the grilled tuna and vegetable tempura which were delicious. The serving sizes... more

Finally, after years of mediocre food on the Cape, we finally found a truly good restaurant. Thai/Mediterranean fusion is inspired. more

This place gets the max stars possible. This is the best restaurant I've reviewed yet. The food is just superb. Every morsel seems to be prepared with such care and attention. Great bread. The desserts are really special too, so save room!! (Good to make a reservation by the way.) more

As I have reviewed Prime 112, The Forge, and some of the most famous and talked about restaraunts in the world, this is in the top 5 of my favorite restaraunts ever. You see, the chef is a mix of Israeli and Thai, so the mix of his flavor is so amazing to start. Try it.. out on the cape... more

I know good food, but great food and a great atmosphere is very difficult to find on the Cape. Forget waterfront dining, Abba is just a fabulous restaurant open year round and the best food bar none. Yes the summer it is packed so make your reservations early. This is a special occassion place, it is expensive but only a... more

My wife and I recently dined at Abba to celebrate her birthday. We generally enjoyed the food - it's clearly one of the better dining options on the mid-Cape. That being said, our service was sorely lacking of any personality, charm, or caring of our patronage. Not one server bothered to chatter with us regarding our evening, our preferences, what... more
