Abel's on the Lake

For some reason I was hopeful that things may have changed since previous reviews. My server had no idea what I could eat, and after promising to ask the kitchen, completely forgot about me. He ended up telling me that I could have a salad and chips, but I was too skeptical that anything was actually safe so I just bought a second drink :) For what it's worth, my friends had terrible service for their regular meals as well.

Server very unhelpful. Not aware of any safe options

Cross contamination

Very few options and server didn't seem very knowledgeable.
