Dining at Fete Bistro by Slay is a delightful experience. The restaurant is alive with guests enjoying the ambience - delicious food and drink. Love that Mezcal Margarita! Menu choices are varied and delicious. For the health conscious, it becomes obvious that freshness is a goal of the chef. Salads are exquisite, crisp and varied with additions of fruit, olives etc. The bibb lettuce with pears is amazing, but so is the Tabouli. Dinner choices are varied, and lush. Whether fish, beef, or vegetarian, each is a perfect choice. Love the kabobs, a wonderful selection of chicken, shrimp, or beef. The fish dishes have a light texture, sauce, and spicing. To top off a grand meal, the dessert options are tempting, especially the Creme Brulee. As a frequent diner, I recommend making a reservation at Fete Bistro by Slay. Request Tess as your server. She is an absolute delight, especially helpful for guests to select their perfect menu choices!
