5/10We visited Bistrot des Fables as it has a bib gormand rating in Michelin. . The duck breast salad starter was deliceous but the mains failed to impress especially the blanquet de veau which was tastless. The scallops were a better choice but were not cooked optimally. The restaurant seemed to be surprised to be asked for a cheese plate and the quality offered was surprisingly poor. Service was good and the waitrons were helpful
Bistrot des Fables • Owner
Thank you for taking the time to share this. We’re pleased the duck breast salad starter and the service worked for you, but we sincerely apologize that the blanquette de veau felt tasteless, the scallops weren’t at their best, and the cheese plate came as a surprise and didn’t meet expectations. We’ve reviewed seasoning on the blanquette, scallop timing/temperature, and how we present and source our cheese selection. If you’re open to it, please contact the manager so we can follow up properly and offer a solution. Kind regards, Le Bistrot des Fables

8.5/10This is a very good bistrot located near the Champs de Mars and The Eiffel Tower. The bistrot offers a large selection of classic enteés and plats. We had the delicious onion soup for our enttreés, and the veau planchards and the magret du canard as plats, both of which well prepared and delicious. The serious was friendly and professional. Our only complaint is the tables are set very tight, but then this is a bistrot.
Bistrot des Fables • Owner
Thank you for visiting and for the detailed feedback. We’re thrilled that the classics worked for you onion soup as an entrée, then veal and duck magret and that the service felt friendly and professional. We appreciate your note about the tight table layout; you are right it's part of the traditional bistro style, but we always do our best to accommodate preferences. On your next visit, please ask for a roomier corner or earlier seating we’ll be happy to arrange it whenever possible. Kind regards, Le Bistrot des Fables

6/10Good salad starter and decent French onion soup. Roasted duck breast was solid but the croque monsieur was awful. Ok wines by the glass. Probably on par for the restaurants in the vicinity.
Bistrot des Fables • Owner
Thank you for sharing your experience great to hear the salad starter, French onion soup and duck breast worked for you, and thanks for the note on wines by the glass. We’re sorry the croque monsieur missed the mark. We would have gladly remade it during your meal; we’re tightening up the toast, gratin and filling balance with the team. If you return, please ask for the manager so we can make it right. Kind regards, Le Bistrot des Fables

7/10The onion soup was especially good- not overly salted as most bistros make it. Unfortunately, the barbecue sauce didn’t work very well on the duck.
Bistrot des Fables • Owner
Dear Guest, Thank you for your kind words about our onion soup and we’re glad you enjoyed it. Regarding the duck, we would like to clarify that it is served with a honey and rosemary sauce, not a barbecue sauce. We appreciate your feedback and hope you will enjoy it even more on a future visit. Looking forward to welcoming you again soon. Best regards, Le Bistrot des Fables
