Best Farm To Table Restaurants in Nanaimo

Exceptional staff, service, ambiance, food quality and hospitality. This is my third time enjoying Hector’s creations and he never disappoints. The Botanist staff is worth experiencing as much as the food. Absolutely superb quality and food pairing, wine paring and menu creativity. The menu changes with the season but if you are around in the winter anything suck, lamb or pepper salmon is and will be divine. This is a must experience!

We had a family get together and can say we had a most enjoyable evening. Our server was always there when needed but never obtrusive. The food was delicious; everything thing we ordered was perfectly done. All this served in a great space.

At an absolutely stellar experience at Fable. As a vegetarian, the squash steak was one of the best veg entrees I've had in a very long time. Deliciously flavoured and interesting (unlike the pasta marinara or risotto that many places seem to resort to as their obligatory veg option). You could tell thought had gone into it. And props to the bartender who took care of us when we were unsure about the options. Our server Olga was fabulous. We had such a good time with her; she put the "cherry on the top" of our wonderful evening. I was dining with my mother and she agreed that it was the best food she had in a long time and was already making plans to return. Thank you, Fable!

Firstly, I appreciate a restaurant that actually takes reservations for brunch. The place was busy but service was very attentive. Food arrived in good time. We had the prohibition brunch which was hearty and great value. We will come back.

Great little gem, amazing food and our server Owen was fantastic.
