Highly touted as the best burger in Lincoln Nebraska...... Because it is!!! They have a few simple yet delicious burgers on the menu for the purist and even more delicious, one of a kind combinations you would never even imagine would go together on a burger. A clean modern store with a friendly staff and quick service made for the perfect dining experience. BEST BURGER IN LINCOLN!!!

The food is always a step up. Today's late dinner was amazing. I had The Great American Cookout burger and my wife had the 1809. We sat out on the patio to enjoy the beautiful evening. It's definitely worth a try! Update 11-18-23: WOW! Knocked it out of the park again! I had the Goron Ruby.....mmmmmm. ya. I've added a photo. It's the topless burger. Zoom in and take a look at that slaw!

Excellent burger! I had the double and it was perfectly cooked and juicy. Could not stop eating even though I was so full. Fries were tasty but I have had better. Fast service and a clean place to eat. I would highly recommend!

Great service, very friendly and clean atmosphere. All items were tasty. The sweet honey curry sauce was very nice paring with the fries.

First time in and Honest Abe's and really enjoyed it. The staff was friendly and helpful in selecting our burgers, and the service when our food was ready was quick. They have a a selection of unique burgers which I'm looking forward to going back trying more. The fries were amazing, just the right amount of seasoning and crispness.

I love eating here!! Got the headless horseman with a vegan patty , truffle fries , and a root beer float. The vegan patty was phenomenal. It paired deliciously with the pumpkin ketchup, fried onions and cinnamon cream cheese. I was happy that the root beer float was made with craft root beer! The food was fresh and the cashier brought it out right as it was done, I loved how fresh & hot the fries were!! The cashier was very friendly and I appreciated her input when I was ordering and had questions. The staff all did awesome and overall the experience was great. Will definitely be coming back and hope to have more great experiences!! I really am grateful for the vegan burger on the menu because some veggie burgers served in town lack a good flavor /texture. This burger hit the mark and I will recommend it to my vegetarian friends! This place has the best veggie burger in Lincoln. 10/10

Starting off, the place was cutely decorated and the vibes were chill - would recommend it as a date place for something quick n delicious to eat bc those burgers were sooooo good. I got the jalapeno one (maybe called fireside?) n it was paired perfectly with the garlic mayo sauce (though I also recommend their honey mustard one). My friend got their raspberry jam one n the sweet/salty ratio was amazing. The fries were also good, would recommend the normal or truffle ones. Would 10/10 go back here to try other burger flavors. The only thing I wished I could adjust from my experience would to have more lettuce on my burger. Update from 4/29/25: place was still amazingly good as I wentthe first time. One thing I will add is I’d recommend just the regular fries now that I’ve had the truffle ones. They are good but only for the first few bites before it gets really salty. Regardless, the burgers r so good.

Always love to stop at an Abe's when in Lincoln. The burger patties alone won't win any awards but the flavors they combine to top the burgers are almost always amazing. Also can't go wrong with a side of truffle fries. Great place to stop if you want something a bit different but also want a burger.
