   This hasn't changed much from the old Kingston and I actually like that.

   Such a cute place, and surprisingly spacious. Staff were super accommodating with us arriving before our reservation and making sure to keep track of time so that we didn't miss our show that the nearby theatre. Food was delicious, drinks were great, really loved the ambience of the place.

   Seated for our reservation at a table in the back of the restaurant right by the kitchen, server station, bathrooms, and a door to the outside letting in cold air all the time. Trifecta (plus 1) of awful seating. This table should not even be used for guests. Confusing menus. Service a bit slow. Food and pricing is decent.

    We had 4 different meals that were all very good, but the gnocchi was the star! Nashville chicken sandwich, molles frites and steak and frites were strong runners up. Excellent service and a nice place. Only 2 small things that bothered me: I told an employee the paper towels were empty, and hour later they were still empty, dried my hands on my pants. And our booth had a pipe running up the wall right next to my daughter, the pipe was very hot! Surprised we were seated there as there were plenty of open tables at the time.

    Fable Diner & BarResponded on January 25, 2023Good to know. Thank you for coming in!

    Had the dine. out menu. Creamy Tomato soup was the best tomato soup I've had! Would love to know what the recipe for this. It's nice restaurant. It looked small from outside but it's actually bigger inside. And they have a bar lounge downstairs. The bar lounge got busy. Service took longer in the end...

    Fable Diner & BarResponded on January 25, 2023I will get a pic of the recipe and send it to you. Please email me - I don't think I can send photos over OT. My email is kathy@fablediner.{c-o-m] - ignore the brackets and the hyphens, OT won't let me send my address. Thank you so much for your feedback.

    The service was fantastic but the food was lackluster. Everything that came out was lukewarm. Pasta & pork were both over cooked & lacking flavor & sauce. The ratatouille was good but cold & also lacking sauce. The s’mores were not toasted enough, so the mashmallows were still very firm which made them difficult to eat. It was the first night of the dineout menu, so probably just a few kinks to work out. I would give it another chance in the future to see if the food improves.

    Fable Diner & BarResponded on January 25, 2023Thanks for this feedback Stephanie, and thank you to the compliments to your service. It indeed was a crazy evening. Sorry to hear that some things definitely went sideways for your visit.

    Good spot for a large group. We were 14 total. Good happy hour food and beverage selection. I thought no we had all of the deep fried appetizers and my only complaint is the “Battered” onion rings. So soggy. Otherwise the food it great!

    I was a little disappointed with our overall experience, this was my first time at this location, but third time in total to a Fable Diner and I have enjoyed my experiences before. The server was not super attentive, they forgot our hot waters and never came to ask if we wanted out bill, we had to flag them down. I ordered the Veggie Benny and it was very underwhelming. It promised tomatoe jam but there were just a few sliced raw tomatoes, only 1 poached egg, some mushrooms on the bottom and just a slice of white bread and the whole thing was just smothered in hollandaise so you couldn't taste anything else. The rosti was good. Overall, it lacked punchy flavours and I left still hungry. We were also surprised at the lack of a GF dessert option for my friend. She did enjoy her veggie bowl, so that's good!

    Fable Diner & BarResponded on December 28, 2022Thanks so much for this feedback. Thanks also to the compliments to the veggie bowl

    The roast duck pancake was good and something different but the pancake became soggy because of everything that was on top. The Trucker’s Plate was underwhelming both in taste and presentation. It was something that we can do at home. Nothing special. The slab of pork belly was inedible because it was all fat.

    There were so many televisions! It was like a hotel lobby bar. Definitely not the same experience as the Fable on 4th or Fable Diner on Main. Lovely, friendly server. Food was pub food and quite expensive.

    Fable Diner & BarResponded on December 14, 2022Thanks for your visit Jill. We do have a different atmosphere than the others - TV's have been in demand due to the football event.

    Jug of beer was FLAT. Waitress said "sorry". Calzone was burnt and had to be returned. Numerous mussels were unopen...definitely a problem with freshness. Waitress showed no concern. Steak cooked rare, was tough. Not a great dining experience, to say the least

    We went for the Sunday Prohibition brunch. The main was great and the service was friendly. My issue was with the pastry we received that was an extremely dry crunchy scone and the dessert was a piece of refrigerator-cold banana bread. I didn’t feel those 2 things added any extra value to the brunch set.

    Had the Prohibition Brunch, which is a phenomenal special. Food was good, especially the mains, though the scones were a little dry and the cocktails were slightly watery. Service had a few hiccoughs, ie. we waited 30 minutes after the scones for our mains to arrive and we didn’t get spoons for our coffees, but the service team was otherwise responsive and attentive.

    Our waitress could not wait to get away from the table. She was clearly having a bad day, which is reasonable, but it was reflected in our service which was unpleasant. We had some confusion with a feature sauce option that she told us it was one sauce on the menu and came back to say it was different, but then did not give us the opportunity to clarify/change our order, given that we thought we were ordering something else. Throughout the evening, she barely stayed around long enough to hear us finish our order. The appetizers we ordered were brought out last, we had to ask for our beverages to be refilled.. just not a pleasant experience overall. Also we kept seeing her walk aggressively past our table huffing and puffing which made for a mildly hostile ambience.

    Was disappointed at the start because I thought I had made an on line reso at the main n boundary location only to find out it was the wrong location…web site a bit confusing…anyway phoned Richards st local to yell them I would be late….I am glad for the error because we totally enjoyed the Richards st.

    Very big restaurant, that being said the service was good considering how small the kitchen is. We had the Thai chili chicken meatballs for an appetizer…delicious. My husband had the grilled chicken burger. Very generous piece of chicken. My house house salad had too much dressing ( since I asked for no dressing) I was kinda disappointed. Tomato soup quite tasty. All in all not too bad.

    Great prices . A lot of duck on the menu . Duck pizza was a bit too much sauce overpowering the duck. Crust was all sticky with sauce - made it hard to eat . Calzone was burnt , but inside tasted good . Burgers were good. Enjoyed the vibe - mix of bar /restaurant.
