Great place for French bistro food in Rehoboth Beach. Welcoming, white table cloth, excellent service, daily specials in addition to the standard menu. Pricey, but worth it. Noise level is high, but I prefer that to quiet or background music. Food was wonderful. Just go!

La fable is fantastic all around. To start with the staff is very nice and polite. The food is delicious. The ambience, relaxing and romantic. We spent our 30th anniversary there and had a wonderful experience.

We have been coming to Fable for years and this had been one of our favorite dining spots. We were beyond disappointed this week. Our entrees were underwhelming. The lobster gnocchi was an abomination. Dense dumplings , heavy / uninspired sauce ... an overall failed dish. The poulet cordon blue was dry and barely warm when served. There were a few highlights such as the seafood chowder which was delicious as was the fois gras torchon paired with the sauternes. However, this time the escargot were rubbery with a cold center despite being served on a sizzling plate . Not sure we will venture there again which is a shame

My third visit to this consistent restaurant. Our food was great as always the wine list is well chosen and priced. It was our first time in season and the servers did not miss a beat with a full room and the usual great service. The table was properly mised for the food that was ordered and our two different wines were attentively poured in just the appropriately amounts. Jodi and the rest of the servers treat you like your home.

The best dining experience I've had in Rehoboth. A beach town I've frequented for over twenty years. I can't believe it has taken me this long to discover La Fable. The food was exceptional and the staff were knowledgeable and welcoming. I will be back next year, and will encourage others to dine here in the meantime!

The food is flavorful and creative, but I wish there were more of a balance in that it is uniformly quite rich. Our server was superb, however, and the setting, while not ideal as a kind of English basement situation is nonetheless attractive.

I have dined at La Fable several times and brought my family for my daughter's birthday on Saturday June 20th. We all ordered the Cordon Bleu and because we all had apps and bread ended up taking most of our meals home. Sunday my daughter texted with a video of her leftovers and the chicken was raw, and I mean not under cooked it was raw. I spent 30 years in the restaurant business and would never leave a bad review but that is unacceptable I feel the kitchen and the servers should be vigilant not to let this happen again.

Our waitress was amazing Food was on point with Paris We felt welcomed from the minute we walked in

As usual the food and service was excellent. The chef was able to alter a meal for one of us with dietary restrictions. The halibut and sides were cooked to perfection. The Coquille St. Jacque was also excellent as was the Poulet Cordon Bleu and the Cote de Porc . Our server, Antonia, as always provided cheerful and attentive service. We eat at La Fable whenever we are in Rehoboth. It never disappoints!

LaFable a smal French restaurant was a fabulous way to celebrate our 41st wedding anniversary. From the time we walked in the hostess wished us a happy anniversary and present us with a nice card signed by the staff. Our waiter came over with a complimentary champagne toast and we felt so special and welcomed. We ordered drinks and our server I think his name was Nick told us about the specials for the evening. My wife and I ordered a LaFable mixed green salad to share which was served on separate plates which were as outstanding. For dinner my wife ordered the duck and I order the 12oz NY Strip and it was cooked perfectly and the sauce was over the top. We each took a taste of each others entree and were not disappointed. With dinner my wife enjoyed a glass of Cabernet. Dessert was a special tart with chocolate and a raspberry sauce which we shared and my enjoyed her espresso. The service was top notch throughout the night and we were never rushed and enjoyed our anniversary. This was well worth the 50 minute drive to Rohoboth Beach from where we lived and is 1 of the finest restaurants we have ever eaten in.
Excellent meal, excellent service and the ambiance is lovely! My husband and I both had the French Onion Soup which was wonderful, followed by the cote de porc and the beef bourguignon. Highly recommended.

This might be our favorite restaurant at the beach. The food is always superb and perfectly done, the service friendly— you feel welcomed and cared for. Always a great evening.

Peter
We are always welcomed by the team of Anya, Tonya, Peter, Nicholas and Bodin and made to feel like family every visit to La Fable. The service is impeccable, cocktails and cocktails are perfect, special meals are created by chef for our vegetarian son, and food is well-prepared and beautifully presented. French classics as well as seasonal specials. Every occasion is a special occasion at La Fable!

Food is always good and we've been numerous times in the past 4 years. However it seems the duck breast at $50 has become more like half a duck breast portion.
