    We went for brunch and the food and service was excellent. The featured omelette was quite possibly one of the best omelettes I have had. My wife had the French toast which she enjoyed. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting. If you are looking for a solid brunch spot on the weekend, this place delivers.

    I was disappointed with the overall quality of food at Fable Kitchen. We tried two dishes: the Traditional Eggs Benny and the Smash Burger. While the hollandaise sauce on the Benny was nice, the potatoes served with it were dry, over-salted, and not enjoyable. The Smash Burger, unfortunately, was a letdown as well. It was served pink, and the ground beef lacked any seasoning, making it extremely bland and tasteless. The timing of our visit also contributed to a less-than-pleasant experience. Our reservation was at 1:45pm, but we arrived just 5 minutes late, and I received a call from the restaurant asking where we were. To make matters worse, the kitchen closed at 2pm, which made the entire experience feel rushed and less enjoyable. On top of that, we were seated next to a frame that fell off the wall and almost hit me, which honestly felt like a sign that we maybe shouldn’t have eaten there in the first place. Overall, I expected more in terms of both food quality and service. Based on this visit, we won’t be returning for lunch or brunch anytime soon.

    I am sorry that the quality of the food seemed to be not to standard. The chef will be made aware of your complaints. Was the call rude? It is standard to call a late reservation to make sure they will be attending. I am sorry the experience felt rushed. How did the frame fall off the wall? Things on the wall don't just fall! I'll find out where you were sitting. I'm sorry for this bizarre experience.

    The lunch was something… Food was still good but for the price, the ingredient selection is questionable. Looking forward to trying the dinner.

    Sorry to hear that this experience was not enjoyed. The prices are in comparison, very reasonable.

    Excellent food, service and ambience. Pear salad, chicken cutlet, duck and chocolate budino dessert were delicious.

    Superb service. I was struggling with the parking app and running a few minutes late. They were very understanding and even made change for me so I could feed the meter, old school. lol. The daily special benedict was yummy and I appreciated the server asking how I wanted my egg cooked. When I asked for hot sauce, I was gifted a rack of three to choose from. My friend enjoyed her hamburger as well.

    Fable just became my favourite brunch spot in the city. Great portions, flavour and immaculate service. I recommend the classic Benny with the pork belly - so delicious and satisfying. 10/10 would recommend if you are looking for a cozy but lively setting :)

    Went during Dine Out Vancouver, appetizers were lack lustre, main courses had good flavours but unfortunately fish arrived cold. The lamb shank was tough and difficult to cut, potatoe purée was also cold. Service was friendly and the ambience was great if a bit noisy. It was very busy so perhaps the entrees sat too long before coming to the table. Had been looking forward to the meal but left disappointed.

    Sorry for your disappointment. Food usually doesn't sit long, the chef did see your feedback.
