Been to Abe's many times and every time it has been excellent. Order at the front counter and find a seat. The soups are homemade and are outstanding. Everything I have tried was great. I don't eat fries so can't comment on them. The meals are served on real dishes and use real cutlery - unlike fast food joints. I met the owner (not Abe) and was impressed. It is named after William Aberhart school (forgot the rest of that story). Not a chain although he said he has a few Abe's around. I'll be back.
