What Anita Thuladhar likes about The Abby:

The Abbey in Seal Beach offers a mixed bag of dining experiences according to recent reviews. While some guests were put off by the cold and inattentive service, others praised the food quality and overall atmosphere. The Asian Nachos and pizza seemed to be crowd favorites, while some dishes like the Beach Sliders left diners wanting more. The wide beer and wine selection, along with outdoor dining options, were mentioned as positives. Despite varying opinions, most agreed that The Abbey is a cozy spot with solid food choices and friendly service overall, making it a frequent return destination for many.

Outstanding service and food, great open atmosphere to enjoy a few beverages or a meal. Limited seating is the only downfall.
