This little Bistro is my favorite place to go, the food is something for everybody. There is a bakery next to it that has delicious treats. My favorite things to order are the truffle fries, the lobster grilled cheese and lobster bisque. Give this place a try.

Chez Fabien was a very nice experience. The menu selection on -line was much broader than the selection we found on the menu. We were not offered any specials of the night, so we don't know if such a thing is ever offered there, since this was our first time. The food we ordered from the menu was very good. One of us had the salmon (which was perfectly prepared and absolutely wonderful). The only problem with the dish was that the broccolini was so tough it was inedible. The other one of us had the sea bass on a bed of couscous. It was quite delicious and very well prepared. Neither of us had a salad, but the other couple who dined with us did order the arugulasalad with goat cheese and fruit. It was beautifully presented ... and they said it tasted as delicious as it looked. Our waiter, Christian, was very welcoming, kind and attentive enough. We did order dessert (ice cream with pastry). Of everything we ordered, that was the most disappointing as the pastry was not sweet, very dry (as if it were 2-3 days old) and difficult to manage, much less eat. Thank goodness for the chocolate syrup that was served on the side. That was the only thing that gave the dessert any taste. We were quite surprised at our own disappointment as we were expecting more from a restaurant that has a bakery attached. All that said, the main courses were so delicious we do plan to give Chez Fabien another try.

I have been there a couple times for brunch and dinner. The drinks are great. The food is great. The service is very good however, I was there on a Friday and they did have a solo artist playing the guitar there. He was fabulous, but we were right next to him so it was a little loud to be able to talk to the person next to me but other than that a great atmosphere.

Great place for special occasions or date nights. We went with our family of 4 (13 year old and 8 year old included) and had a wonderful New Years Eve dinner. The food was stellar and the service was great. They had live music (not sure if this is routine or given holiday) which was a wonderful added touch. The one thing I would comment is that the ladies bathroom door needs repairing. Thank you for a wonderful dinner and we will be back soon!

The food was inconsistent The onions in the soup were crunchy and undercooked, but the duck confit was well-prepared. The bourguignon was flavorful, but it strays considerably from the traditional French recipe.
