“ Great service Family owned business Luke was a great server Food is on point ! They used to own the infamous beehive in Albany as well ! ”
“ Food is absolutely terrific! Everything we had was amazing. Had we not cleaned out plates with apps and mains we would have gotten desserts also bit had no room at all for anything else. The Texas tea is a must try drink as well. Our only gripe was the hostess who gave us major attitude upon asking to put two tables together. Beyond that all other staff were super kind and helpful. Even got to meet Nariman a co-owner of the business so that was special for us. We got seated within 15 minutes of arriving at 710pm without RSVP. Apps came out 20 minutes after ordering but entrees took 50 minutes after ordering to come out. It was very busy I admit also. We will come back again for sure to try more items like the fillet and prime rib which I am told is for some, the best they have ever had. ”
“ Good service, roll appetizers were tasty. Grilled chicken and chicken kebab were tasty. Atmosphere was calm. A little pricey for what you get, but I would go back here for sure. ”
“ We had a large group after attending the nearby light celebration. We were seated in a room with the fireplace which was a nice touch. The NY strip was on special and was excellent. Restaurant was really busy and we had a new waiter which made for slow service, especially for drinks. Only disappointment on the food came from those that ordered chicken fried steak. I was shocked that it was so thin and looked like a DQ Dude CFS. But overall I would definitely recommend this restaurant. ”
“ Wonderful New Years Eve service. Scott and his team always deliver great food and bar service. Never disappoints. Outstanding black eyed peas! ”
“ If you like grilled salmon, you need to come to the Beehive. No one in town does it better. We try to stop by here every time we are in town. Never disappoints. My husband always gets a steak and enjoys every bite. I wanted to eat something lighter, so that taking a huge wedge of strawberry cheesecake would seem reasonable. LOL My salmon was grilled over mesquite and cooked to medium. Perfect. I told the server the chef deserved a big hug. So many places cook a piece of salmon to death, making it dry and chewy. But the Beehive knows what they are doing. We only had to wait 10 minutes to be seated at 6:30p.m. After we left, around 8pm, there were people in a 20-30 minute wait. Don't be discouraged, it's totally worth it. The Long Island Iced Tea will keep you coming back. Ample parking around the building and plenty of room for two or a group. We even enjoy eating in the designated bar area. See you again when we come to Abilene in 2025! ”
“ Everything was excellent. The server was very nice and the food was delicious and it was really HOT. If I ever return to Abilene, I will definitely return to the Beehive. ”
“ This gem located in Abilene was recommended by the hotel worker and from the moment the doors open, they are packed! This is a fairly large establishment and while all tables appeared to be taken, the wait to be seated wasn't that long. All of the workers were very welcoming and the waitress didn't make me seem like a burden. I was so indecisive since everything seemed so appealing. After heavy debate, I ordered the Chef's Special, I wanted to live a little. The special included a Tomatoe chipotle pork chop, french onion mashed potatoes, sauteed veggies, and taco soup. I was skeptical at first but the flavors came together perfectly! The pork chop also wasn't your typical sized pork chop, it was about an inch thick. They are known for their Long Island Iced Teas but with the hefty meal, I ordered a Raspberry Lemon Drop that had the perfect ratio of mixer and alcohol. This was a great choice for dinner. Everyone in my group thoroughly enjoyed their meals. ”
“ The food here is great amazing menu! Every time we are in Abilene we come and eat here. The filet and salmon is great. Service is always on point. The restaurant makes you feel like you are back in the old times. ”
“ Something special in Abilene If ur celebrating this is definitely the nice restaurant for you Friendly staff Large steak portions Nice atmosphere ”
