i was really happy to see they had a salad for one of their specials and it sounded delicious. my salad had blood oranges, grapefruit, radicchio, and toasted hazelnuts.
i also ordered an order of fries. i wish i had tried their sweet potato fries, but their regular fries did not disappoint.
unfortunately eric wasn't as happy with his food.
he ordered the bbq sietan dish that included coleslaw, fries, and asparagus. the room temperature sietan was in tofu like blocks that were fairly soft, not what you would expect. they were topped with a good amount of mediocre bbq sauce. the coleslaw was a Carolina type of slaw with bland mix of cabbage and vinegar dressing. there was also some asparagus thrown on top almost like an after thought. the fries were good though, thin, hand-cut, and crisp. not worth the $12 by any means though.
on the menu they also have a few other salads, a sietan cheesestake that can be made vegan with the exclusion of cheese, and a lentil sandwich as a rotating special.
overall the abbeye has a good beer list, tasty salad and fries but the plates are nothing special. the service was not bad could have been better seeing that it was so slow. since we live a block away i'm sure we will be back for beers/fries some time in the future.

Soo, if you guys come to Austin, there is a bbq joint that has this amazing appetizer that you can ask for that's vegan. It's seared chickpeas with spinach, achiotes, caramelized onions and roasted tomatoes. I got it the other day b/c it was happy hour and I've been craving it ever since. They servei t with flat bread. FREAKING DELICIOUS and they have some very good waffle fries. I found the chickpea recipe so now I'm going to make it ona weekly basis.
