    Wow - really good! As we were flying out of DFW early in the morning and staying near Grapevine overnight - we needed a place for dinner. My wife booked a reservation at Chez Fabien. We arrived half hour early and they were able to seat of as a nice corner booth. The both was tall and had soft fabric on the setbacks. Good thing as it helped with the sound in the place. So the booth was comfortable but the sound was rather loud - some parties louder than others. No worries - I popped by AirPods in :) Our waiter was Alex. He was very pleasant. We ordered cocktails and told Alex we were taking the night slow as our entry time into offsite parking was for 2 hours later. The wife and I both ordered their French Old Fashioned. They were really nice and only $13. Later, we ordered the Calamari appetizer. It too was really good. It came with two dipping sauces and there were some fried veggies in addition to the calamari. The kitchen here is freaky fast. It could not have been more than 5 minutes and the appetizer was brought to the table by a runner. A while later, we ordered dinner. We shared their Beef Bourguignon. It was very tasty and was plenty to share. For dessert, we ordered a slice of Italian Cream Cake to go for eating later, back at the hotel. Oh my gosh, the slice was huge and was so fresh and moist. It could be the best I’ve ever had. The menu here at Chez Fabien has a lot to offer. If you don’t think you care for French food, you will still find plenty of options that will please you. And for downtown Grapevine, I also felt the price was nice for the drinks and food.

    I've been here a couple of times for brunch, food is always great, and atmosphere is very lively. Both times around 10am and it's been very busy, and that could be the reason I only received half of what I ordered and condiments were not put on the table. Minor things but nevertheless, we enjoyed our brunch and time spent there.

    It’s been a minute since the last time I’ve eaten here. Love the updates! The service is great, atmosphere inviting and the food is delicious. I had the Santa Monica grilled chicken sandwich and my lovely wife had the French Dip. Highly recommend both. The desserts are off the chart and we decided to go with the crème brûlée with berries.

    This is my 3rd time in Grapevine and finally, I’ve been able to get a table here! No wonder why they’re so busy: they’re fabulous! Lovely ambience, great and fast service and delicious food!! Both restaurant and bakery have soooo many options that we might need to come here a few times to try everything! We came for brunch and while we were waiting to be seated, they gave me my son a dinosaur cookie since there’s an Dino expo in town. Needless to say, it made my son’s day! We ordered Florentino quiche and the side salad was impressively good for a side salad! We also ordered chicken and waffles Benedict, which was also impressive as it was just not a simple chicken waffle but the French twist made it yummy!! For dessert, we had the churros French toast with house made dulce de leche and that was the perfect final touch!!!! Highly recommended and we’ll definitely come back!

    Chez Fabien is a delightful spot in Grapevine, perfect for a cozy breakfast or brunch. The dark roast coffee was bold and strong, and the Earl Grey tea was beautifully served in a teapot, adding to the charm. Paul ordered the omelet, which was absolutely delicious. We loved that they mix all the ingredients into the eggs rather than just stuffing them in like a crepe—exactly how an omelet should be! I had the avocado toast, which was both filling and flavorful. The butter croissant was incredibly flaky and rich, the perfect pastry to round out our meal. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we will definitely be back! Jesse our server was attentive and great. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great breakfast or brunch spot in Grapevine.
