The restaurants in Rehoboth/Lewes are as good as you will find in NYC and Philadelphia. La Fable's food and staff are 5 stars. This place is a must on your next visit to Rehoboth Beach. read more

My boyfriend and I came last night for dinner, after reading all of the other amazing reviews. Simply said - it was absolutely enchanting. The warm environment from the hostess (owner I believe) and the waitress started the night off perfectly.. The night only got better with the food !! The bread and butter to start was so good. We split the escargot which was just full of buttery and garlic goodness. We both got a ribeye steak in a cognac sauce with frites - literally out of this world. It was hands down our best dinner at Rehobeth Beach. This place is a MUST try ! read more

French Bistro at its best in RB!! We came to Fable on opening night, expecting a few kinks when a new restaurant gets started, but were WOWED as it far exceeded our expectations!! Fable is located on a below-street level with a walk down into a softly lite, warm room and a lovely bar set to the side, with windows above looking onto the street. We were warmly greeted, while soft French music plays in the background. Tables are beautifully set and far enough apart so you are not at your neighbors elbows. And reservations are taken which is a real plus in RB! Now for the food...The menu, which changes daily was kept fairly short (one page and a wise decision when starting out) is very "traditional" French, but with a modern twist. We started with 3 different salads, all extremely ample and beautifully presented--crab with greens; "La Fable", a radicchio, poached pears, and walnuts; and a bib lettuce w/ beets, goat cheese, pine nuts and a very light "green goddess" dressing made from avocado. They were amazing--just a hint of dressing so that each flavor in the salad came through. For our main course, we again sampled from the six on the menu that night and had the Canard A L'Orange, Poulet Cordon Bleu, and Coquilles St. Jacques. (The other choices included two steak dishes and a veal chop, all of which looked great from a distance!). Again, we were WOWED--all were perfectly prepared, not over cooked (duck breast was rare as it should be and scallops were very moist), with interesting vegetable accoutrements. As we savored each course, the wait staff was attentive but not hovering and did not remove our plates until all of us were finished eating--a real irritant for me, and a positive mark of a good restaurant when they get this and instruct their staff appropriately. And, all of this for very reasonable prices - less than the top end restaurants in RB. Regarding desserts, I can't review as none of us had room. Next time....and trust me that we will be back soon! read more

Such a charming and beautiful atmosphere. Everything was magical from the moment we walked in. The food was perfectly prepared and amazing. The staff is very sweet. The owner has added such beautiful details and touches to have made the whole experience very memorable. I can't wait to take my family here :) read more

A very good French find in lower slower Delaware. Cannot say enough about this treasure.

This place is outstanding! It is classic French country fare - the presentation and the cuisine were excellent - similar to what you would find in a high end French restaurant in New York or Paris :)!! We had a number of different dishes - with the coquille St Jacques being one of the best we have ever tried, same with the steak frites....a seriously talented chef!! will definitely be going back :) read more

Dined recently with a large(r) group and the food and service were flawless. Cocktails, ambience and wine all home runs. A boeuf bourguignon that would make Julia Child jealous. Impeccable. read more

This place is hands down the best restaurant in rehoboth, and I would recommend this to anyone looking for a quality fine dining experience!

This place was amazing. Small foodie place just like you would find in Paris. Yes, a touch loud, but who cares. Great atmosphere, polite people, and excellent food. I had the scallops on recommendation of the waiter, and it was easily the best I have ever had. read more

Great casual French restaurant and not what you would expect to find at the beach. Friendly staff, nice bar and exceptional food.

Elegant and Classy. Food is very traditional and superbly cooked and presented wonderfully. Meghan is an excellent hosts and greets every guest and makes sure they are made happy. One of rehoboths finest. read more

We finally made it to the end of the summer season here at the beach and made reservations for this new restaurant. From the impeccable service to the quaint but elegant ambiance to the delicious food we enjoyed every part of this experience. From the crab soup to the escargot to the steak or chicken cordon bleu we were amazed at the flavors the food delivered. The portion sizes were the only thing we considered American about this French style restaurant. The price tag did not shock us for the Rehoboth restaurant scene and we were actually pleased with our final bill for the experience and the evening we enjoyed. read more

This place is fantastic! I've been to France, and I literally felt like I was back there. I had the Boeuf Bourguignon and it was heavenly. We also had the cheese board, which was wonderful. I just wish the cheese portions had been a little more generous for the price point. I'm very excited to go back! Our server Daryl was also so wonderful and helpful. We also enjoyed the sense of family that the staff have for each other. read more

Our first time here was a wonderful experience! The food was terrific and the service was impeccable. I had heard good things and it more than lived up to my expectations . The owner was very attentive and stopped by twice to see if everything was to our liking. The prices were very reasonable too. I highly recommend this place for a special occasion. read more

Dined here on a Saturday night in December and the place was buzzing. Love what they have done with the décor and the whole place has a great vibe. Very good menu but thought that it was odd that the one special they had was a NY strip steak considering they have 2 options on the menu - steak frites and steak au poivre. My dinner was amazing but my wife's Coquilles St Jacques came without any of the things you associate with that dish except the scallops, no sauce, no breadcrumbs, no cheese. Which is fine if that if the way the chef wants to serve it but just call it pan seared scallops. Overall, it was very good and considering they have only been open for 2 months I can only imagine that they will continue to get better. We will be back soon. read more

Last night I dined at La Fable with some friends. The food is truly unique and the staff amazingly informed. So happy I had the opportunity to try this gem. read more

I was so excited that a new French restaurant was opening in Rehoboth Beach, I was not disappointed. It took me a little while to check out the new place, so I took a friend and had a very nice Thursday night dinner. I started with a glass of excellent pinot noir and my friend started with a dirty martini, both were delicious. The martini was delivered in a very cool looking antique martini glass. The freshly baked bread was very good and served with European butter with the slightest amount of pink salt, which added even more flavor. My companion started with the Caesar Salad, I started with the torchon of foie gras. The Caesar salad was very good and seasoned well. My torchon of foie gras was a little cold, to start, but warmed up and was delectable. We wrestled with what to have for our main courses, several things appealed to us both. I went with the sea scallops and my friend went with the duck. Both were excellent. We were very full at the end of the meal but decided to share a creme brulee. It was packed with flavor and vanilla bean. I'm so happy to have a new French restaurant in Rehoboth Beach and even happier that it's as good as I'd hoped. I can't wait to go back and try the rest of the menu. read more

Stay away - for a newly renovated setting, the atmosphere reminds me an old tired dungeon. Food was barely edible.
