Fable & Spirit Newport Beach Reviews from The Last Year
Celebrating a birthday and an anniversary on March 16 at
Celebrating a birthday and an anniversary on March 16 at this lovely restaurant. Service is incredible as always. Darren, Drew, Ali this is a real classy place. Our waitress for the afternoon, Tracy was courteous and accommodating This is a must visit restaurant
I see a netizen who highly recommends this restaurant,
I see a netizen who highly recommends this restaurant, saying it's so good that you can eat your way through the menu. So I made a reservation for dinner the next day. We arrived twenty minutes before our reservation and could see that parking was a matter of chance. Our meal was enjoyable throughout, from the seating to the ambiance to the service, especially the food was excellent, indeed all the dishes we ordered could have been a 5. The food was presented beautifully and produced excellent flavors that meshed well together. Highlights - The Bone marrow, the Halibut and Octopus and even the salad were all flavors we enjoyed. The only thing is that American Express card holders may be told at the checkout that they can't swipe it, so it's better to have a backup card or cash (the only thing that needs to be deducted from the score). We have decided that we will be back soon to try other dishes, their salmon, pork belly and brussels sprouts.
What can I rave about that hasn't been raved about by
What can I rave about that hasn't been raved about by others? Consider this review me adding my "oohs" and "aahs" to the chorus. I have a fellow foodie friend who, like me, has been wanting a special night out at Fable & Spirit for years and we finally made it happen. Worth the wait and definitely going on the special occasion go-to list. We enjoyed the experience from start to finish. We made a Thursday night dinner reservation. We were shown promptly to our 2-top table. I spotted at least 3 larger groups - clearly a good celebration spot. It was loud but it didn't bother us- it was part of the ambiance of the place. I felt like I was in LA or NY - when we finished our meal and stepped outside into quiet Newport Beach, my brain had to readjust. I'm glad they're taking advantage of sidewalk seating from a business standpoint, but if you want the full experience make sure you get a table inside. The attention to detail from décor to tableware communicates upscale with a hint of whimsy. Shout-out to our server Maci who is a gem - had great recommendations and made us feel very at ease with our dining experience. Cocktails were creative and balanced. My friend and I split a bunch of plates and they came out at a great pace. Highly recommend the Mangalitsa Pork Belly. Whatever else you get, make sure to order the Guinness Brown Bread - trust me! My taste buds were blissed out over every slice, spread generously with European butter. Thank you Fable & Spirit for serving up a sensory feast!
Very impressed with the diverse array of dishes this
Very impressed with the diverse array of dishes this restaurant offers. The interior was warm and fun, and noise level was medium. For our dishes - 1) Fish & Chips- Crispy, golden-brown and the pieces were huge, we had to bring some leftovers home. This dish was accompanied by a generous serving of perfectly seasoned fries and curry dipping sauce and a bed of crushed peas. Next, the cracked pepper bucatini--This dish had the perfect balance of spice and creaminess with flavor and clams in each bite The brussels sprouts-- Roasted to perfection in the wood-fired oven, these brussels sprouts were caramelized to perfection. Wood-fired octopus-- Tender and succulent, with a delicate charred exterior that lent a hint of smokiness. Service: impeccable and created a warm, inviting atmosphere.
A few years later and F&S is still killing it.
If i could buy the guinness bread by the pound i would rent a U-Haul... It still remains one of my favorite cute date spots in OC where I know I'm guaranteed good ambiance, great food and drinks, and the right amount of noise (subtle, not rowdy). The type of place you go once youre 30+ years old :)
Loved their ambiance.
Their food was very good as well, EXCEPT the salads were uninspired and cheap. I think that their establishment is very unique and I liked that they stayed consistent with their theme and concept from the decor to the menu items. Don't order the salads, they were sad I expected way more. The rabbit was okay, I mean I have never had rabbit but it wasn't super flavorful. The dishes that I thought were good were the mussels, the fish and chips, the pasta, and the white fish. I also enjoyed their Guinness bread and butter. The server's assistants were on point, always there to fill waters and provide extra butter, to-go boxes, etc anything we needed they were right there ready to help. I think that this place would be a great spot to celebrate a special event like a birthday as well.
Heres what we ordered.
Hamachi crudo, caeser salad, octopus, roasted cauliflower( this was steamed), fried chix, and cant remember the rest. IMO its not worth the price and the food was plated well etc but didnt really taste great. I wouldnt come back but i wish them all the luck.
My husband took me to Fable and Spirit for my birthday and
My husband took me to Fable and Spirit for my birthday and it did not disappoint. We had the perfectly seasoned grilled octopus and a large bowl of mussels in a delicate wine sauce. Both appetizers were outstanding. I ordered rack of lamb which came with a mushroom risotto. The entire entree was delicious and cooked to perfection and both items were so flavorful. My husband ordered the steak and it was also prepared perfectly. Both entrees were a perfect 10 out of 10. Our server, J.J. was top notch. He was so personable and really took great care of us making my birthday a great experience at this restaurant. The bread pudding is the best in Orange County. The energy in Fable and Spirit is good karma all the way. Fable and Spirit is a restaurant to keep coming back to- it is just soooo good!
Food was great! Lots of flavor.
Our server (who had a killer mustache) was excellent. Very attentive and knowledgeable. Ambiance was great! Beautiful restaurant. 10/10 would go again!
My first visit to Fable & Spirit was a few months after
My first visit to Fable & Spirit was a few months after there opening. I had just touched down from San Francisco and went straight to my reservation at the restaurant. I loved the décor and touches of whimsy but I'm not sure what happened as I was left feeling meh about my meal. I didnt return UNTIL recently after my friend, who is as much of a foodie as I am, made it clear that I was wrong and needed to give Fable & Spirit another shot. My lord, it was a meal to remember from top to bottom the service, the food the ambiance was on point. From the first appetizer of Guinness bread and butter and bone marrow to the drinks to the delicious entrée every morsel was c'est magnififque. I'm So glad I stayed open to giving this jewel a second change. I highly recommend this restaurant to any person visiting Newport or making their way to Lido.
Great place very great bread.
Been here 4 times. Always good drinks , food and service. Guinness brown bread always great I had the halibut which was cooked well and had a nice sauce. Also had the Mille here and a mille there. Great flavor. My wife had the rabbit fricassee. She said it was very good. Two people had the bells and whistles. They loved them but I felt too spicy. Service was very good.
Overrated and disappointing!
Overrated! Disappointing! Food was not impressive, cocktails were small and average and service was not good. For a Michelin restaurant this one didn’t do it for me!
Don’t miss the opportunity to dine here!
Simply THE best brunch I’ve had in at least a decade. The Tequila Wine feeling Fine might be the best cocktail I’ve ever had. The beignets are Guinness brown bread are great! The pizza was absolutely fantastic! Don’t sleep on the Fish & Chips, WOW!!! Bucatini was delicious and so were the pancakes. As if we didn’t have enough carbs, we loved the bread pudding and the strudel was delicious! The service was equally fantastic! I couldn’t recommend a place any more than Fable & Spirit. Thanks to all that made our brunch so special! Cheers, until next time.

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it? |
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

I have some reservations coming up tomorrow that have gotten lots of views but haven’t sold yet. I haven’t made a sale yet since I just joined this week.

Just looking for a little reassurance. Thanks!

Give the best answerApp
This app is a catfish and overrun by people programming “bots” and algorithms. It makes it frustrating for someone not well versed in this to have any movement. I thought this would be a fun side hustle, but unfortunately it’s become like any other “side hustle”. Don’t waste your time with this crap. Not a question, just a suggestion. Also don’t pay these fake “gurus” hundreds of dollars to teach you. Might as well sign up for a software class. 😕
