I had an awesome experience. The food was so good. I went off of a recommendation of a friend and I’m glad I did. I will definitely be back. Try the cappuccino!

I love fable and fire! Everything from the coffee and matcha (specifically the lavender bloom matcha)in the mornings to the fun beverages and delicious dinners at night. Definitely a Rockwall gem

Food was good. Some was served a little cold (i.e. not freshly prepared hot) as it seems to have been sitting too long. The manager and chef did correct the mistake so that everything was correct. We personally thanked both the manager and the server for making the correction.
