Finally got around to trying Abigail Street for the first time after moving to Cincinnati last month, and it did not disappoint!! The serving sizes were very generous (our waiter said 2-4 plates for 2 people, I'd recommend 3 max!). The hummus was the star of the show, with this month special having dates in it. Sweet and flavorful; would order every time. The ricotta and honey was delicious but we had to take it to go from being so stuffed. The octopus and shrimp were both tasty as well, but would sub these out for something else next time. Still amazing, no complaints! The service was a bit slower, but this was by design so don't come if you're in a hurry. Each plate comes separately to enjoy at your leisure. We will be returning!

Went for a first date/birthday and had a blast. Server said he recognized my energy and made me feel seen. We started with the beet salad to break the ice and then moved into the octopus which is the best thing there. Short ribs were great too. Overall great experience. 10/10 perfect. - E+J

Abigail is always such a treat. Came back to my beloved Cincinnati to visit for a short few days, and I had to squeeze in a meal here. The mussels, the octopus, the whipped ricotta with honey. Everything here is just chef's kiss!!! We got bar seats and I think I'm going to start doing it a lot more often. You get to talk to the bartenders. I also forgot how amazing the midwestern hospitality truly is. The vibe here is also amazing. I can't wait until I return to Cincy and eat here again!

Popped in at 8:30 on Saturday night and lucked into a table for 2. Had great service. Attentive. Ordered an espresso martini and a glass of orange wine. Both were great. Started with the gnocchi. Very light but still cheesy. Have to order the octopus. It's just that good. Tender. Love the chickpeas. Star of the night might've been the broccoli. It was spiced perfectly. The sauce was insane. Love the vibe of the place. Can't wait to go back.

Most memorable and tasty meal we have had in Cincinnati. Absolutely delicious shrimp entree. Shareable style. Sought after reservations and limited walk in availability. Great for groups to be able to split more food options. Paid for parking lots nearby.

Had an amazing birthday dinner at Abigail Street! The Merguez Stuffed Dates were incredible. The hummus was the best I've ever had, so smooth and creamy with the homemade pita, wow! And rounded it out with the Charcoal Grilled Shortrib. Everything was so delicious and our server Blair was outstanding. Highly recommend!!

I absolutely love Abigail Street. I don't know why I've never reviewed it before - it's one of our favorite spots in the city. The staff members are always super friendly and welcoming, the vibe is relaxed while still feeling like you're dining somewhere special, and the food is always excellent and never misses. The tapas are generously portioned and curated so that you can have any kind of dining experience you desire. If you're a person who loves to try as many things on the menu as you can, grab your partner or besties and go and sample as many plates as you think you can handle. Alternatively, if you're not a fan of the share-style dining experience, they curate their "main" and "side" tapas so that you could have a traditional dining experience as well. Tonight we went for my husband's birthday and ordered way too many dishes (on purpose - we love leftovers)! Everything we ate was on point and the service was timed perfectly. Our server even went the extra mile and included a little birthday candle on the Ricotta & Local Honey tray and a Happy Birthday message on the checkout postcard. I can't wait until our next trip there! On our menu tonight: -Sangria Roja (I loved their take on sangria - not too sweet and a perfect amount of fizz) -Ha-Bee-Bee (hubby's drink - if you love lavender and sours, this is the drink for you! My husband was very impressed. I'm not a lavender fan so it wasn't for me) -Merguez Stuffed Dates -Well Provisioned Hummus (changes daily and is never lacking in flavor or originality) -Wood Grilled Octopus -Moroccan Spiced Broccoli** -Lamb Kebob -Ricotta & Local Honey **I will likely go to my final resting place believing their broccoli is the most delicious thing I've ever eaten.

Incredible dining experience at Abigail Street. We didn't have a reservation on a Saturday evening, but they were able to seat us within 30 minutes (table of 2). The service was outstanding, every dish was brought out one at a time and the table settings were changed between courses. We had the falafel, bacon-wrapped dates, scallops, and lamb spaghetti. All were delicious, but if we had to pick a favorite it would probably be the Bay Scallops. The combination of the scallops, pear, pork belly, and potato was so unique and savory. Highly recommend!

What a great place. Small plates. Good beer. Good service. We had so many different choices on our night I lost track. Keep ordering, everything is unique.

From food to service, this place gets 5 stars. Came here for a reservation on a Thursday night and got our table right away. This is tapas/small plate style so we ordered 4 dishes for the two of us as well as 2 cocktails. They do a different hummus every day so we got their hummus of the day first. It was spectacular! It had a pimento chutney and came with a warm and fluffy pita that was also spot on! For the bigger dishes, we got the grilled short rib and lamb spaghetti. The short rib was tender and flavorful and came with bib lettuce to make little wraps. The lamb spaghetti was fantastic. The pasta is made in-house and the lamb was crispy and super yummy. Apparently the lamb dish is new and the kitchen is still working out the timing of it. As a result it took a little longer to come out than the rest of the dishes. We had no where to go and this was no problem, but the manager came out and apologized and comped our drinks - A+ service! We will definitely be back here to try the rest of the menu!
