Neither of these items will prevent us from returning. They needed maybe 30 seconds more in the deep fryer. I would have given Abacus five stars except for two items: the Orange Beef, although ordered extra spicy had very little heat, and my two Spring Rolls while hot on the outside, each had a cold spot inside. A large bowl of rice complemented our two entrees. My husband said the Orange Beef was very good, and I definitely enjoyed my Shrimp with Garlic Sauce. (No wonder he enjoyed 2.5 of the small place setting bowls!) I ordered the Spring Roles (non meat as compared to egg rolls) and the Shrimp with Garlic Sauce. Abacus' soup featured large pieces of pork combined with tofu, noodles, veggies, and shrimp. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the soup, and it wasn't the Hot-Sour we've experienced in other Chinese restaurants.

However, when she left the almost-a-terrine at our table, we were surprised the size of the soup accommodated 2.5 small soup bowl servings, with at least two to take home. When our server brought a large almost terrine to the table, and ladled a serving into my husband's soup bowl, we thought that was interesting. My husband ordered the Orange Beef (he asked for extra spicy) with Hot-Sour Soup. Be ready for the super-size of some of the dishes. The servers and staff were very friendly, and there are many items to. This is a small restaurant, but tastefully decorated, and enough seating to accommodate an evening crowd. We wanted to enjoy a Chinese dinner and located Abacus in the neighborhood we were visiting.

In the restaurant at 7 o'clock had many empty table, which reflects the opinion of other folks. The restaurant has been there for many years and for many years it was always rated a 8, 9 or a 10. It's a very tough business to have a restaurant, I was expecting to be wowed. Now about the food, On a scale of 10, I would rate it 6. UnProfessional moment! the owner, during the evening, told a server employee, to leave the restaurant, He spoke partially in English and partially in Chinese because there was not enough business that night, and wanted the person to leave through the back door. What was served was broccoli only,(no steak on the platter, it was corrected, but obviously one of us ate later) no apology from the owner. The owner took our menu choices, one of which was steak and broccoli. The menus, appear to be the original menus since the day they opened, and our chattered and very worn. Disappointed, it may seem like a minor thing, but you never get a second chance to make a good first impression what comes before the menu.
