I had dinner at Abacus this weekend and was disappointed. The room is modern, but very loud, ok service and the food is very elaborate but not tasty enough for the price. The lobster shooters taste like fish balls to me.</font>
I'm sorry to hear that one of my favorites was disappointing.
I do agree with you that the room can be loud... although I actually like not being able to hear the conversations of those at the table next to me (since no one ever said Dallasites were quiet by nature).
I'm still a huge fan of the lobster shooters... although now that I have the recipe I think I'm very likely to make the "sake" (broth) as a stand-alone dish.
The dessert menu has had some rotation lately... a Godiva chocolate soup has been added with lots of neat stuff in it. It was too-die-for.
