The Abbaye has potential and I would be willing to give it another try, however, my first experience was very dissapointing. First, the GOOD: The beer selection is awesome; a lot of good Belgian beers. Also, the atmosphere (in the non-smoking) section is just about right. The BAD: my lamb was overcooked and bland. My date's fish was very fishy and overpowering. Based on what I saw others eating, I think that most people go there for the basic menu items (sandwiches and salads).Also, the service was terrible. Not only did out entrees come three minutes after our appetizers, but at one point my date and I were arguing with a food-runner about whether or not she brought us a round of drinks that we had ordered.
Pros: Great beer, Casual atmosphere, Inexpensive
Cons: Bad service, Mediocre entrees
