    Tableau is always perfectly on point. The service is impeccable and the food absolutely outstanding. Regardless of whether I am at the restaurant for a business meeting or enjoying the restaurant as my elevated dining standby in my neighbourhood, I always enjoy a great dining experience.

    Very good food but a somewhat limited menu. Excellent wine list. A bit noisy as Happy Hour was on when we arrived at 6 but it quieted down.

    Food and service was excellent. The only thing was the seating, which felt stuck out in the middle of the restaurant. The placement made it hard to hear and focus on the individual’s I was dining with. But I should have asked for a different table.

    Sunday , a bit noisy combining music & people. We had their French Onion Soup many times, this time was a bit flat & sweet (not onion sweet but just sweet not rich enough flavour) the Steak & eggs was great! Bacon is very good! The smoke salmon on Cream cheese Bagel was ok because they used Herbs Bagel with over whelmed the taste of Smoked Salmond, tasted a bit weird..(like Montreal, they really should use toasted Sesame Bagels.. that’s amazing!) Overall, service was great, & atmosphere was pleasant!

    It was very busy, but from ordering to taking the main course, we waited an hour. We were very hungry by the time the main course. The staff were very friendly and the spot is very busy because it is very popular. I just felt that the kitchen could have been more efficient.

    SO GOOD. Amazing food for an amazing price, great server, beautiful decor. We had a fabulous experience and I can't wait to come back! The only problem was that it was a bit loud and I could hardly hear my friends across the table from me. Otherwise, absolutely splendid.

    I normally love Tableau, but today was marred with less than ideal food quality and extremely slow service for our food. For example, the mushrooms on toast was almost inedible because the bread was so tough that it was almost impossible to cut. I suspect there was perhaps an attempt to raise the amount of our check, but just made us late for our event. We advised our server that we needed to be somewhere multiple times. I will rethink choosing Tableau.

    The Tableau is truly fine dining. The food is wonderful. Rafael, our waiter, was friendly and had great suggestions. Both the chicken and spare rib meat were perfect! The wines suggested were perfect pairings. The host staff dealt with my wheelchair so discreetly. A truly elegant evening.

    Overall pretty good restaurant. The mushrooms on toast and sunchoke galette were amazing. The wine list is extensive, and even the house red was good. The service was friendly, although we had a few hiccups with drinks getting missed, not being able to get their attention, etc which is forgivable since it was busy. Ambiance was nice, although the table next to us had a crying baby, which isn’t really the restaurant’s fault. Good French bistro is definitely return to.

    We were visiting VC from Los Angeles and Melbourne, and wanted a lovely, cozy, restaurant to enjoy in the rain. Tableau really fit the bill. Like you stepped into a Parisienne bistro! Excellent cocktails, and delicious French cuisine. The Mushroom Toast and Salad Nicoise were highlights. Our server, Nick, was warm and friendly as were the other staff. Highly recommend Tableau! Make sure to reserve!

    It's great to have such an excellent late night option. The Shrimp Louie was unique and very very good and the burger was one of the best we've had in some time. The atmosphere was fun with cozy but upscale decor and good music. We really liked it. It's one of our go-to spots when we come to Vancouver.

    We ordered the onion soup and it was on the salty side. The foe gras on the menu should be duck pate instead. Oysters were alright. Service was good but food is a bit disappointing.
