  I always hear about Earl Abel's and I remember the stories my parents told me when we would drive past the old location on Broadway.
  
  So one day I decided to go with my friend and his parents to the new location on Austin Hwy and try it for myself. I ordered the chicken fried steak.
  
  I was pretty disappointed by the food, the menu which is mostly comfort food wasn't the problem. The food I received however was bland. My chicken fried steak was pretty plain. I felt like maybe it was prepared for an older crowd, using low cholesterol oil, maybe low sodium, no salt. Im not sure but everything was lacking flavor.
  
  I couldn't understand what all the hype was about. My friend who was eating with me agreed that his meal was pretty plain as well and he ordered something else. We both left confused as to why this place has remained popular with the middle age and older crowds.
  
  Maybe I just got a bad meal, but I've yet to return since this experience.

  Came here expecting good chicken and waffles like in the past, instead very disappointed. Got a chicken breast which was the size of my palm with very little meat. Ordered a side of fried potatoes taste like frozen potatoes tossed in the microwave. Asked for hot sauce for chicken and potatoes got salsa instead. Waitor was very friendly and took the potatoes off the check since he noticed we didn't eat them. At the end as we were paying he suggested get tenders next time because they are bigger and more meat, uh why didn't you tell us before we ordered? There won't be next time!

  I went to eat dinner here with my mother. We did not get waited on and a server snapped "I'll be there in a minute" to my mother. After waiting about 15 minutes a couple came in and got waited on immediately. The restaurant wasn't even busy. I'll never go back.

  Food is great, service is great. However their menu and online advertising is wrong as they don't serve chicken and waffles untill 1; even though their site and menu say 9am-8PM. I will gladly change my review to 5.
