Love going in there, friendly staff, easy to order, take out, parking available right by the Pearl Brewery, out back I’d street is full...the Fried chicken excellent👍 And their deserts, omg
Chicken & waffles was really good here . The fried chicken is to die for . San Antonio staple !! You must try @ least once . The menu offers a great selection! Reasonably priced
Home cooking that's better than I can cook it at home. I've had breakfast, lunch and dinner - all so good. Omelettes are fantastic. Try their pies. The homemade dinner rolls are excellent.
Great breakfast. First time there and it was like taking a step back in time, loved the whole vibe. I had the waffles and hubby had the pancakes, both had eggs & bacon and everything was delicious. I did like his pancakes better than my waffles though. Next time I want to try the biscuits & gravy and hubby's going to try the french toast.
My parent's first date.....Feb 1961. Sad I couldn't have visited the original site of Ear Ablel's since this was the place my parent's visited on their very first date in February 1961.
I did enjoy my meal at their new location and this place will hold a special place in my heart. My parents have now been married 53 years and are more in love now with each passing year.
We've many great things about this place. We finally went there. I went there for the bone-in fried chicken, but I ended up with chicken (tenders) and waffle. First of the portion is big. The tenders are juicy and flavorful and the waffle was fluffy and good. I got full that I didn't get any of the desserts and pies. The good news, it is a reason for me to go back. Which I will definitely will.
UPDATE: we went back for the pies! We had the banana creme and key lime. They were both delightful! These are not your pre-packed pies that they defrost. These are made with fresh ingredients. My favorite is the key lime. Tell you what, the key lime (they said from Key West), is the definite star of this pie. The banana creme is up there too.
Earl Abel's is always fabulous! The food is reliably delicious and Stayton is a terrific server. Highly recommend the fried chicken tender sandwich add fried egg, or the chicken and waffles (bring your appetite!), the chicken fried steak, oh everything there is delicious!
Came here for brunch with some friends and had a great time. The servers are super friendly, helpful and ours had the funniest personality. We started with some nachos which surprised us a little bit as they had gravy but they were delicious, definitely a great way to start our meal. We also had the hibiscus mimosas which were amazing! I had the two piece chicken meal and got their spicy chicken with mac n cheese and a salad. The meal also comes with a biscuit which was homemade and a little crusty on the outside with a nice fluffy inside. The chicken has a great spice level and it's fried perfectly with a nice crispy skin and juicy meat. Reminded me of how my grandma made fried chicken. Everyone else ordered the waffles and chicken and really enjoy their meals and complimented the fresh waffles.
Such a cute little corner eatery. And it's less than 10 min from our apt! Cozy and quaint with cute little signs on the walls. Food was amazing and hot

Update: We ate breakfast here today. I had the chicken and waffles and scrambled eggs which were very good. Waiter suggested, so Hubby had meatloaf, mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese which he said was very good. They were out of Cream puff desserts so purchased a large chocolate chip cookie and it was fresh and very good as well. Parking is very limited in front of building but there is parking around the back.
We picked up lunch today of 2 orders of fried chicken and waffles and a BLT with fries, and a slice of German chocolate cake, chocolate icebox cake, Cream puff and Apple pie. The waffles were excellent. The fried chicken was well seasoned including the flour batter but the chicken was not cleaned but was full of fat. Cleaned all the fat off each piece and them enjoyed the chicken. BLT sandwich with fries that were seasoned very good. Customer service was great! Food was very good except excess fat on chicken. Desserts were all very good. We will return again and would definitely recommend.
