• Contemporary American • Noe Valley

We serve food that, more often than not, accesses that part of our deepest soul where genuine expression can flow forth. We have always tried to give our food and service our best selves, as honest and vulnerable as we can muster. We strive to be a place where you might actually have a real connection; maybe with your server, maybe with your food or maybe with your possibly gracious host who is ACTUALLY glad you’re there. Oh, you wanted a restaurant description? Sorry. Can’t really help you there. We’re not so big on labels. Our food is hard to nail down as we are constantly evolving and entirely seasonal and personal. We’ve used “Food you eat” as a tag line on occasion and that remains accurate. We could also describe it as “Food we really want you to eat”. When you’re here, tell us what you would call it.

Dining today at Choquette's was just like being in a Paris cafe. OO LA LA! It's a chilly SF Day so we opted for the French Onion Soup - OMG deeelicous. Paid for bread and great butter and shared a lovely butter lettuce salad Ala French vinaigrette. All wonderful BUT they could have put a bit more dressing on the great fresh butter lettuce leaves and I could have requested more but didn't. All in all - we'll return soon.

We’re from Germany and celebrated Thanksgiving for the first time. We came across this restaurant and couldn’t have been happier. The atmosphere was wonderful, the food was amazing, and the hosts and staff were exceptionally friendly and warm. We would book here again anytime!

Hadn’t been to Fable in a while, and never before for dinner, My companion had a delicious mac & cheese, and I had ahi tuna, which was prepared perfectly with sides (coleslaw & asian pear) that complemented it well. Service was friendly and responsive, and food came promptly but we never felt rushed. I look forward to dining at Fable again.
