Okay food not many veg options
Wonderful cocktails and the menu is exceptional. Amazing French cuisine with robust options.
Great atmosphere, service is fantastic, and the food is always on point. A must for anyone visiting Vancouver - usually take our out of town guests here.
Get the prawn cocktail on happy hour they are what dreams are made of !
My husband and I came here for the first time during last week and we really enjoyed it. For appetizers, I had the truffle ravioli and my husband had the onion soup. He enjoy his soup and I thought the ravioli was probably the best ravioli I have ever had. For our entrees, I had the salmon which was also great and he had the steak tartar I believe. For dessert, we ordered the croquants caramel and the profitteroles; these were delicious. This was a great experience and we certainly plan on returning.
Best breakfast sandwich in town and friendly staff
Very dissatisfied with the service

It's been a few years since I've been back and was looking forward to coming back to Tableau again. I love the wooden elegant atmosphere. The service was top notch. Judy was our server. She was so attentive not only to us, but to everyone she served. The food was just as memorable as many years ago. My friend had the Steak tartare, mushroom on Toast and Beef with homemade Pasta (Brunch Menu) All were delicious and I need to go back more often!

I love this place. I Absolutely love their happy hour. I would say it is one of the best in Vancouver. The service provided by the Brazilian waiter was outstanding (sorry I forgot his name!!! But he’s awesome) Everything was perfect, the food was incredible, drinks were amazing and service was 10 out of 10. We will be back very soon!!!
The venue is impeccable. It has a Parisien, rustic, cafe sort of feel. The menu is nice - I've always had great meals here.
(Translated) Excellent food. On Valentine's Day a great menu. (Original) Exzellentes Essen. Am Valentinstag ein super Menü.
Excellent service, friendly and attentive right from the host to our server. The food was exceptional, happy hour is a great deal, drinks were unique and delicious. We will be back in a heart beat. Thank you for a lovely evening.
My partner and I chose Tableau Bar Bistro for our anniversary dinner and it was the perfect choice. The service was ridiculously good, all of the staff were very kind, welcoming, and attentive. Our server Miguel was very knowledgeable about the menu and helped us with all of our questions, he was great! The food was delicious. I am a vegetarian and was worried I was going to miss out but we were able to get quite a few things on the menu. Our favourite was the French onion soup, it was very rich and comforting, followed by mushrooms on toast and the squash galette. I loved the food, the service and the overall experience that we had at Tableau. I only wish that I had known to come here sooner but now that I know, we will be back!
Updated review: Stellar service and fantastic food! Every time we come we're welcomed so warmly and get to know our server. They bond with us over shared love of delicious, fresh, clever dishes and deliver on everything they promise. Lovely patio and cute interior. I will go back again and again. Great that they consistently have wonderful vegetarian options. My previous brunch experience below applies not at all anymore! Old 2017 review from brunch only: Really tasty brunch but slow service. The place was dead and there were three waiters walking around but none would talk to us for about 15 minutes. Once served though the food was good and fresh. I'd go back.

Great atmosphere, good food but very slow service.
Great food - their fries are the best of all restaurants I've been to. The mussels were incredibly tender and flavorful. The French onion soup was very dense and delicious as well. Lastly, the service was great. A must-visit if you are looking for great French cuisine in Vancouver!
We went there for Valentine’s Day and had the seafood tower. Service was mediocre and worse of all got food poisoning afterwards causing me and my wife extreme discomfort.
Have been here multiple times and have never had a bad meal. Everything is simply incredible. The mushrooms on toast is one of the most delicious dishes I have eaten in Vancouver.
Perfect place for a drink and great food!
Good lunch spot with a great atmosphere and good French inspired menu.
Dine in
One of my favourite spots in town for a beautiful French dinner!
Good restaurant and it's a traditional French cuisine. The Paté de campagne is homemade. The mussels were very tasty and the fries were fresh. The dessert is very tasty but s little bit too sweet.
Brunch here is good and the restaurant is super cute! I especially love this place because it's not crazy busy like some other locations and we get to eat when we want :)
Eat here for a beautiful apero straight from France (almost). Recommend the Tableau Board. Staff are charming, attentive, and efficient.
Nice happy hour menu
not worth it the price
Very nice place for breakfast and brunch. My wife and I were visiting Vancouver and ate here twice. Our Airbnb location was right across the street and we could not have been happier. The food was excellent and the service very good!
Exactly what it should be!
Great food and service ????
Dinner
Amazing food! (best stake tartare and stake frites I've ever had in Vancouver). Amazing staff! (the Spanish girl on the front door and the waiters are friendly and kind plus they gave us a glass o bubbles and a salad because the food was taking longer than expected). Very sweet! The place and atmosphere is also very nice! I HIGHLY recommend!
Great service, amazing environment and friendly staff, all makes this place completely unique. Quality of food was above expectations. Merci beaucoup Tableau Bar Bistro
Consistently lovely. Have gone here many times, often for special occasions, and the staff and food are great. Both Brunch and Dinner have their own special element. Food examples: Lamb was perfect. Couscous side was a little overdone for my liking but the flavour was there. Canard à l'orange, was perfectly pink, taste was nice but I could have used more sauce! The sauce was delicious. Unfortunately the vegetables were placed between the duck and it's sauce.... Drink examples: 1181 was so nice and fresh. Not too sweet, and perfect for summer. 20th Century was... how to describe... Heaven. It tasted like sipping on a cloud in heaven (of course I can only imagine but I want to go back for more). La Bicyclette was a nice bitter addition to the night. I wouldn't choose this drink again but it reminded me of an old-fashioned (if you added grapefruit). The only real critique I would have for this week's visit (a group of 5 of us), we all agreed, the food could have arrived a much hotter temperature. #TableauBistro #Vancouver

Food's good , service is good. Small menu
Place was amazing! Definitely recommend it!
The corned beef baguette is the stuff of dreams.
Great service. Fantastic service. Very cozy restaurant. One of the best foie gras, ever. Good food. Get your wine and enjoy.
Great creme brûlée must try.
Very good French bistro, food was good. Might consider returning. But I did not get a feel that it was anything special, or a captivating in any way. Just lacked a bit of warmth.
Excellent French fare, their happy hour menu is pretty big. Our server was very warm and attentive.
Very good food and hospitality.
Breakfast
Have to say I was very pleasantly surprised by this place. We went for a birthday dinner and didn't know what to expect. Food was really good. Beef tartare, scallops, ribs and duck were great. Even though it was plenty of food, we didn't feel heavy after dinner. Natasha was our host and she was amazing. Truly a great server that is around just enough to make it known you are taken care of, while leaving you alone to enjoy your food and conversation. She was also super sweet to bring a little something for us after our dinner as a "Happy birthday" gift. Thanks Natasha! We will definitely be back.
It is rare to find a restaurant where they get every dish spot on. Usually among 4-6 dishes two people order, there are great ones and ok ones. But it wasn't the case here. Everything was delicious, nice selection of wine and a very nice bartender (we sat at the bar) who looked after us. This was our second time but they were consistent and just as good as we had remembered. We'll be back!
Great for business lunch or Do that the bar. The food is good and not expensive. Live the vibe and service is great
The food was good, but it didn't worth the price. And theirs customer service was really bad.
Dinner
This place has gone downhill badly in the last year or so, both for brunch and for dinner. Service is now mediocre instead of good-to-great, and the food quality, presentation, and menu choices have dropped two letter grades. I could pick on their charcuterie, their seafood tower, the eggs Benedict, the salads. But the net is, something changed and one of our favorites isn't worth spending time and money on anymore. Hopefully they can correct.
Food and Service excellent as usual, always good here!!

Waffle Chicken with Gravy and Maple Syrup Yum Yum! Free coffee refills.
Standup service and superb food. The steak was a perfect medium rare, the moules perfectly plump and juicy with the white wine, quality is high and the atmosphere is fantastic. Great restaurant!
Food is amazing, cocktails are the best and the staff is super friendly. You can’t go wrong with Tableau! My usual go-to restaurant. In winter time, we go inside for a cozy environment and in summer time enjoy their beautiful patio. I love this place.
This restaurant is amazing and roomy, the meals was delicious and the prices were very affordable. quick, effective service and very affable staff members. Will definitely recommend this restaurant.

Slipping from previous visits. Poor role clarity and teamwork.
Great resteraunt with a friendly atmosphere
I could order anything at random and be confident it will be amazing. Steak tartar was particularly fantastic. Just the right amount of attention from the server, and he was extremely helpful when explaining some of the dishes if you're new to French cuisine.
Good food, it's not trully french. But it's delicious.
One word. Excellent! I had the duck and hubby had the steak eat frites and both were outstanding. We started with the foie gras ( which could have been served at room temperature) but nonetheless was superb. Highlight was the creme brûlée- tasty, generous portion and serve with a sugar cookie in shape of Eiffel Tour. Service was excellent t. Thanks to Nate! Great menu with amazing service! The staff was attentive yet respectful. Great atmosphere not loud Nice space!

Dine Out Vancouver menu is good.
Huge prices, tiny portions. If you are a hipster and are into overly priced snacks to take pictures of yourself and post on instagram you would love this place.
Had an linner (lunch/dinner) at Le Tableau today with Jessica from France as our great server. We had a bottle of bubbly and the Eifle tower to eat. It had the best Fois gras soaked in sweet wine, raw PEI oysters steak tartare both which I am not a fan of but love them both now. delicious prawns, crab legs, tuna tartare, ceviche scallops with dill, apple and jalapeño, mussels in a lovely marinade, and great ecoutrouments like pickled turnips, candied walnuts, French bread, pickles , sauces for the oysters and steak tartare and shrimp. We had a wonderful experience and sat on the patio and highly recommend this little unknown French restaurant in Vancouver. ????????????
Athentic Frenchy style menu and mastered dishes ! Almost a real parisian bistro ambiance, very comforting atmosphere and good food quality . Best crème brûlée we had in the Vancouver !!
Interesting menu but the food has always been great! Also check them out during happy hour!
Meal type
The food and drink were for the most part good, but the overall experience left a little bit to be desired. We had reservations, but when we arrived, our table was still occupied so we had to wait about 20 minutes. Not a huge deal as we were able to grab a seat at the bar to bide our time, but just an unfortunate start to the evening. A couple of us ordered steak frites, which was delicious but our fries took a good 10 minutes to come out after the rest of our food had been delivered. Also, the garlic aioli that came with the fries was quite bland and mostly just tasted like mayo. We sampled several wines, but were underwhelmed by all of them. Instead we stuck to the cocktail menus which was all very good. Finally, toward the end of our meal we asked our waiter about our car parked in he parkade immediately next door to the restaurant - we had thought we saw a sign saying the gate closed at 10:30, but weren't sure. He said he had no idea as they weren't affiliated, and left it at that. When we left the restaurant at 10:30, low and behold, the gate was closed and our car was locked inside. I understand they are not affiliated, but from a strictly courteous and customer service standpoint, it's something they should clearly be aware of and maybe even make mention of when people arrive. Long story short, service and wine was kinda 'meh', and don't park in the parkade next door if you have a later dinner reservation.
First time and will not be back. Service was not good. Our waiter was trying but you can tell he did not have proper training. I ordered the Eggs Benedict, asked for soft eggs. It arrived at the table cold with hard eggs. The restaurant is over rated in my opinion.
As a person with food allergies, I always appreciate it when servers are really knowledgable and attentive about making sure I don't die from consuming their food. Pros: The service, The mushroom on toast was amazing, the halibut was also perfectly prepared, great portion size (not too big or small) Cons: Slightly spendy for two people
We had experience , we order burgers and Cesar and the taste of burger was very rough and full of fat. The Cesar was very complicated
Not sure if the chef was having an off night but food wasn't great. Disappointed as the service and ambiance was there, chef just didn't deliver.
Had brunch here and the food was great but slow service
Always outstanding for food and service
Boyfriend and I read up about this place during our stay at Loden. We came during appy hour and the meals were delicious. Leah was our server and she was bubbly and very attentive. The decor was chic and absolutely dig the deep house music playing throughout the stay. There was so much food that we took it to go and grazed on it until our departure at Tsawwassen terminal during a sailing wait. Next time to Vancouver, we'll have to try the place again for the dinner service (boyfriend caught the neighboring table having bone marrow and alerted me immediately as he knows I love that dish)
Great food, great service and lovely venue
Friendly staff and good vibe :)
Came here for our anniversary dinner and was very happy with our experience. The staff were friendly and thoughtful, gifted us with champagne for our special day. The foie gras to start was my favorite. We also enjoyed our beef tar tar and and the ragu was amazing! Everything was flavorful down to dessert and cocktails.

I really loved this place and can't wait to come again for sure, went for lunch yesterday and it was their happy hour, our server she was super nice, food was so great, our burger was cooked at a perfect temperature, the mushroom toast was another level!!!! I really recommend this cozy place!!!!
A warm decent French restaurant with great staff and nice service. The food tasted good and the presentation of the food make me can't help grabbing my phone in my pocket to seize the moment of taste. It's wheelchair friendly place with a 12-20 vip room for private purposes.
From the warm welcome on arrival to the friendly service and fine food and drinks, it was a great occasion. We'll be back.
Great atmosphere, service is fantastic, and the food is always on point. A must for anyone visiting Vancouver - usually take our out of town guests here.

To die for drinks. The white chocolate drink is a must have.
This is the worst restaurant I have ever been to! Run away fast! We went there on a Tuesday night with out of town guests for a 60th birthday party. The service was terrible! We had to send 2 dishes back and the other meals were awful. At 7:45 they were out of everything and I was sick until 4am. I'll be surprised if this restaurant lasts!!
Delicious food and amazing service
Fantastic from start to finish. Staff was great. Liam was impressive as a server. And the food was top notch. Definitely would go again!
One ofbth best
Great quiet place to grab a beer and good conversation. Good food but needs more vege options! Great staff.
(Translated) Unique atmosphere, succulent dish (Original) Ambiance unique, plat succulent
NOISY , INEXPERIENCED SERVER AND SLOW . If you dine bring your earplugs and patience. So loud we couldn't even carry on a civil conversation. Server couldn't open our wine then tried to pour it through the shards of the metal cork …
Great food at a reasonable price. Went for brunch and it was a pleasant experience. Recommend
The food was divine (highly recommend the Chocolate Espresso Mousse!!) and the waiter was excellent.
I LOVED my experience at Tableau for their brunch. First of all, the service was outstanding. I felt important and cared for by all their staff. My husband and I sat in the patio and enjoyed it. The food was ???????????????????????????????? I had smoked salmon eggs Benedict & my husband had the croque madame and upgraded his fries to the truffle fries. I HIGHLY recommend trying their truffle fries if you get a chance. They were some of the best fries we had ever tasted. ???? we were also impressed that they clearly didn’t use ‘cheap eggs’, but good quality eggs that were a strong orange colour. My husband has a mimosa with his breakfast and I had a bon-alcoholic La Provençal (basically a sparking lemonade sweetened with lavender honey). I really enjoyed my drink. If you get a chance to go here, do it! You won’t regret it. It was a perfect choice for brunch on our 11th wedding anniversary ????
Service
Probably the best cocktails and service in Vancouver. Sat at the bar two nights in a row and the bartenders were fantastic. Ordered the full seafood tray and was very impressed. Will definitely be going back here. The spritzer drinks also are amazing!
Service was a bit disoriented, either lack of it at first and then too much of it. Our food took an increasingly long time despite being asked if we were in a hurry, they kindly provided us with bread in the meantime but finally when we received our charcuterie board as an appetizer we had become so full after the rounds of bread to really enjoy our main dish. The organization of the large table reservation was excellent, the server we had was very friendly but unfortunately everyone from our team felt it was not as enjoyable as it could be.
Great food! Really good environment and bathroom. And the food is just perfect!

Tableau Bar Bistro is a nice laid back neighborhood restaurant very close to the hustle and bustle of Robson Street. The food was simple but well cooked, with friendly and attentive service.
Tableau is a fabulous little french restaurant with a wicked little happy hour and really yummy food. Happy hour starts at 2:30(yay!) And it has a fantastic mix of wine, beer and eats from their regular menu. The fish cakes are to die for!! So good I usually get two orders. Decent prices and the space itself is beautiful to sit and have a glass of wine in.
Stopped in for a quick drink with the intention of coming back after our appointment for lunch. Unfortunately we ran out of time but we'll be back. The menu was great and all the food we saw pass by looked amazing. Our server/host/man of many hats was incredibly friendly. Next time!
Really fabulous. The hors d'oeuvres were so great we didn't even make it to the entres! Beautiful space, exceptional service.
Very lovely experience dining here. Servers were not only well dressed but well mannered, friendly, outgoing, and attentive. Being vegan, I was treated well and thoughtfully. However, I'm use to being forgotten about, so I questioned my server when my food came n they said that here's my vegetarian food. I questioned my server to be sure that it was vegan n they apologized. They said that they missed the fact that my dish was made vegan instead of vegetarian. Plus I was there to celebrate someone's bday n the cake that was brought wasn't, which didn't bother me, but one of the staff brought me a two scoop bowl of raspberry sorbet just so I wouldn't be the sole celebrant not enjoying dessert. I was very surprised by such thoughtfulness by restaurant staff. Kudos to everyone on a great experience. TYVM!
Fantastic and delicious food, I like the ambience the spot has, and the workers were super friendly. Will surely come back.
Great food but, they were not following this covid protocol as tables were not 2 metres away from each other. If that’s the case, they must have physical barriers between tables. Tables were extremely close which made us uncomfortable. Luckily, we were given with 2 tables which we could have our own 2 metres apart just feel little safe ????… Anyways, won’t be back till covid is over! Good luck dining in this restaurant.
Atmosphere is great and the food is great. I got the duck confit, foie gras, and halibut. The duck was amazing!!
First time here, excellent food and staff
Get the Scallop Crudo and the Coq au Vin

Wonderful experience!!!! Beautiful ambiance, amazing food, and incredible staff. I really enjoyed my happy hour visit today and highly recommend you check it out. Tasty seafood towel and a creamy delicious Ceaser did the trick for our tummies today. I must say the staff worked well as a team and everyone was attentive and friendly. I think I found a new fav Seafood joint.
Went for happy hour and got the burgers. Delicious! Wouldn't pay regular price though.
I worked here for a short time and I have to say the staff and management of the restaurant is top-notch. And their food is incredible... Not too costly. This is a restaurant I would highly recommend for any special occasion or business meeting, or simply a get-together with your friends for brunch. Really a great spot to have a unique dining experience.
My girlfriend and I decided to visit Tableau after finding out about their new Happy Hour offer. It was especially attractive to us seeing that their 50% deal included their cheese and charcuterie board. We really enjoyed our time at Tableau, the food was great and their house wine was great as well. The happy hour half off allowed us to get both their meats and cheese for the price of one, but we found it hard to justify pricing to portions at regular price. Atmosphere was great and servers were great too. Would definitely visit again.
Fabulous place with fantastic service. Food is great as well as the wine selection. Will definitely come back.

Made reservations to eat here while staying at the Loden. Came on a relatively empty night but made the dinner quiet and romantic. Ordered the bone marrow with steak tartare and French onion soup to start. Split the Moules Frites for entree. Both were very good and not salty like other places I've tried. The sauce for the mussels is very different but once you get to eating it, it grows on you. I would suggest as per our waiter suggested, to get the frites on the side. Also ordered one of the signature cocktails "Breathless" which is their version of an old fashioned. Great tasting and had great aromatics.

Good place - food was very good and the waiter was fun to deal with. I don't get downtown all that often - but I think I would go back here.
From well crafted drinks to amazing food- they have it all! The services is outstanding as well. A must try!
Chic, elegant New York vibes are to be found here. We went for happy hour and enjoyed a wonderful bubbly from the selection of discounted bottles. There’s a large range of options on bubbly and food. Truffle fries, escargot and charcuterie were the perfect accompaniment for the toast. Definitely an elevated experience in a gorgeous neighborhood.
Great restaurant and excellent service.

Been here twice and have been very happy with the service and even happier with the food. Great fresh ingredients. Their tartare is one of my faves in the city (just right for my personal tastes). Great happy hour menu as well.
An amazing establishment. First time ever going, and I cannot wait to go back. The staff were accommodating, and definitely recommended me some of the best dishes and drink selections for my very enjoyable evening. 5 stars, magnifique.

Excellent service, friendly and attentive right from the host to our server. The food was exceptional, happy hour is a great deal, drinks were unique and delicious. We will be back in a heart beat. Thank you for a lovely evening.
Just your typical French restaurant. Good food, but nothing spectacular.
I love this place. This is called Frech food, impeccably executed. Love the wine list, the choices the service. All excellent. A small note that this may be a better atmosphere for business and casual dining as opposed to romantic. Not that isn't good enough it's just kind of loud and tables a close together.
Great service and lunch specials! They also have a decent happy hour menu. I have been here three times and have enjoyed the food and energy of this restaurant!
We were there on a Saturday night but it got pretty quiet after dinner (around 9:45). So I guess it's mostly locals that have dinner there. Service was good. Our waiter was very attentive and their 10 pm happy hour menu has unbelievable deals!
one of my favorite restaurants in Vancouver, never disappoints =)
Had breakfast there this morning. Great food. Amazing service

Came here four times: two Breakfast, one Happy Hour, and one dinner. Overall four stars! One star reduction from five because of one incident over dinner and the seafood tower being not too fresh. Amazing ambiance though, great for girls night out or date nights. Despite the incident, I would still return. Breakfast: avocado toast, tableau breakfast, mushroom on a roast, omelette, followed by two latte, one mocha. Food was generally good, not the best but worth 4.5 stars. Latte was pretty terrible. I would not order their latte again. Mocha was okay.. Happy hour: Eiffel tower ($115) - two oysters were really bad, foie gras was something we couldn’t swallow due to smell and this was not the first time having foie gras, we've had better ones in the past, mussels/scallops/snow crab were fresh. Given that this is the most expensive item (basically their signature thing) on the menu during happy hour and we were not too satisfied, I removed one star from this experience. Fries were tasty. Dinner: NY 10oz steak, french onion soup (I thought it needs more cheese compared to the soup I had tried in France), and truffle topped fries followed by two glasses of red wine. Steak was amazing, top quality. French onion soup was also one of the best I found in North America. Fries = heaven. Just one flaw was the service, the server spilled french onion soup all over the table and onto our pants and arms, but she just said “oops”, and moved on. We did not burned or anything, but the fact that she never said sorry was a disappointment. The wait was quite long to get the table ready. Yes it was Sat night, but we were quoted 20mins and we waited almost 45mins. Overall, we still had a great experience here. Will return and highly recommend!
Absolutely. Completely. Amazing. Fantastic food from world class chefs - served and attended by an outstanding team. Thank you for such a memorable evening!
Went here for brunch, the service here is very good, our server was french and knows the menu well. Good attentive service, very accommodating, answered any questions we had with our menu, water was constantly refilled, and food was good. I ordered the chicken waffles which I was told is a popular item. I do not regret ordering this, the fried chicken was nicely seasoned, crisp, not as greasy as other fried chicken waffles, and the gravy was nicely flavoured without being excessively fatty or heavy. The waffles and syrup was also delicous and complimented the savoury chicken well. I recommend you order this dish if you never tried before. We will be back.
Great straightforward French food.
Service
We had a party of 10, which they really couldn't accommodate properly in that space. Someone else commented in a review that the prices are "absurd" and I somewhat agree, depending on what you order. I enjoyed the overpriced scallops I ordered and I loved the trout tartare, but our Brussels sprouts were very very over salted. I think there must have been a mistake and the kitchen salted them twice, but more than one of us ordered them at different times and each serving was too salty. The dessert was not good at all, but the trout and some other items my friends ordered (French onion soup, risotto, hamburger, poutine) would bring me back.
Thought this was a good outing. Very approachable menu, lots on offer for my tastes, French bistro style. Friendly and capable server. Only negative was its a bit on the louder side.

Came here for brunch, it was soooo incredible. The service is outstanding, the ambiance is perfect and of course the food is amazing too. I had the brioche french toast and it was so good. They put bourbon maple syrup on it, and the presentation is wonderful. The mimosas were super yummy too. A bit pricey for sure but you absolutely get what you pay for. Highly recommend and I will definitely be returning.
Very nice happy hour!
My first time trying this restaurant after coming here for my work Christmas lunch. The food was amazing and the service was great! The French Onion Soup was huge and very rich in flavour. Although the soup was an appetizer, it could have been a meal in itself. The steak was so tender and juicy; I can't remember the last time I had such a good steak! Our server, Judy was so amazing and very patient with all of us. She was always so smiley and very happy to serve us. As I don't drink alcohol, she asked if I wanted a mocktail and gave me different options to choose from, which I thought was very thoughtful of her.
Wow the service, the food and the drinks were all unbelievably amazing. Right from the start we were treated like VIPs and I cannot say enough about the food and service at Tableau. It might be my new favourite restaurant in Vancouver! Ps, Please try their profiteroles!!!
(Translated) In a modern French bistro, the noon and evening menus are the same. It was full at noon on Thursday, and we went over to sit outside after opening the shop. The ingredients are fresh and delicious. We ate the chef's lamb chop special meal on Thursday and the beef and crayfish the next day. One side dish is trout balls, which has a strong fish-flavored meat flavor, which I particularly like.

Service was amazing, food was great! Thanks Francois!
(Translated) The atmosphere was much better than the outdoors I ate tenderloin steak, duck leg steak, and onion soup, but it was full and delicious The servers were also very friendly, and it is a place where you can leave good memories on a special day. I think I will visit again next time on a special day. (Original) 야외에서 보는것보다 훨씬 분위기가 좋았습니다 안심 스테이크와 오리다리스테이크와 어니언스프를 먹었는데 배부르고 맛있게 먹었습니다 서버들도 너무 친절했으며 특별한날 좋은 추억을 남길수 있는곳 입니다 다음에도 특별한날에 재방문 할것같습니다

The French onion soup was superb. One of the better ones I've had in a awhile. I had the Ling cod which was done very nicely. Highly recommended this restaurant
The staff were polite and attentive, my group was well cared for, and the food was delicious. We did not feel rushed at all, as can sometimes happen at other places. The wine steward was very helpful in his recommendations. I strongly suggest you try the mushrooms on toast, which doesnt sound like much but which was outstandng.
Have been to Tableau multiple times over the years and they never disappoint. This time we went for brunch and had the Mushrooms on Toast, Le Burger and the Crepes Suzette. Move over avocado toast, mushroom toast is where its at and the mushroom toast here is amazing! Get the black truffle shavings too, it adds a lot to the dish! Because they are located in the Loden Hotel they have very good hours which is appreciated. Will definitely return.
Tableau is always my go to for high quality and consistent French cuisine. It’s never crazy busy which I love, because then you can actually hear your friends/guests. What I really love is that EVERYTHING is always delicious and executed well. While this is French cuisine, Tableau doesn’t use too much salt or butter that other French restaurants use which can make it overkill. I usually order the New York steak frites (which used to come as an entire strip loin but now is cut up), and also the duck breast. The duck breast is always SO moist and never dry. The steak frites is a classic and you can’t go wrong. I also usually order the steak tartare which I cannot get enough of (love the little quail egg). I have ordered the French onion soup here and really liked it as well, but the steak frites, duck and steak tartare are my staples and highly recommended!
Great in every way.
duck frites? WOW duck sauce? WOW wagyu bEeF? wowie ! truffle FRIES? mama mia!! cream pie?? b i g
Fabulous. Excellent service, menu and choice.

Came here with a bachelor party of 20 guys. We had a private back room, which was lovely. Food was excellent; fresh and flavourful, French-inspired dishes. Service was amazing. Alexis dealt with our table and I can't say enough. People were switching places, customizing orders, and he managed it all with ease. He was unobtrusive but joined the conversation with words of wisdom later into the evening. Very impressed.

Fantastic and delicious food, I like the ambience the spot has, and the workers were super friendly. Will surely come back.
Nice food and good atmosphere prices are so high good man

Good for business lunch meeting. Book in advance
Server really nice and food was awesome. Whisky list was nice
Great food, drinks and ambience!
Good food. Goods service
We went to Tableau on October 14 …2021 Everything was absolutely fantastic….from our initial phone call to the incredible service we received…the bartender was amazing… The best part was the FOOD…have the coq au vin…just delicious I honestly can’t say enough good things about this place
Refined classic bistro fare magnificently executed
(Translated) It was a casual bistro and all the food was delicious. Onion gratin soup, mussels, steaks, salads are shared by three people, and desserts and coffee are each. And two bottles of sparkling wine and two glasses of red wine. That's a total of $ 216 CAD. Above all, the steak is exquisite, the outside is fragrant and the inside is juicy. The demigrass-style sauce has enhanced the taste. Waiters are friendly and friendly. Slightly higher, but more than money. I want to come again. (Original) カジュアルな雰囲気のビストロで、料理はどれもこれも美味しかったです。オニオングラタンスープ、ムール貝、ステーキ、サラダを3人でシェアして、デザートとコーヒーは各自で。あとスパークリングワインのボトルと赤ワインをグラスで2杯。それで全部で216カナダドル。中でもステーキが絶品で、外側は香ばしく、中はジューシー。デミグラス風のソースが味を引き立ててくれました。ウエイターさんもフレンドリーで快い対応。やや高めではありますが、金額以上の満足感。また来たいお店です。
Great food. We had brunch after spending a night at the Loden Hotel. The bartender came over to confirm my drink order because our server had a thick french accent. We will come back!
Great front of house service and the food cannot be beat!
I went to last night before new BC restriction. It was quite a lot people, nonetheless, service was best I’ve ever had. I will definitely visit again ❤️
Great place, lots of good options for typical French food (ie Parisian Bistro style ). The price is slightly above average but food quality is high and service is top top notch. Also, a place in Vancouver that you could actually practice your French. Would highly recommend.

A bit pricy, strange menu options, but good beer and the food was good.
Okay restaurant, food is not that good... a bit blend and it is expensive. Service is not that spectacular either...it's okay.
Went for a farewell lunch last week and the service was fantastic! We stayed a few hours and the waiters were friendly and helpful and made our visit memorable. All three of us ordered the French onion soup which is not to be missed and the fries were delicious as well! Had it not been MY farewell lunch, I would be eating here over and over again! Next time I'm visiting, this will certainly be on the list of spots to eat.
Genius Chef in Vancouver. Every item on his menu is a piece of art.
Dinner
Comfortable atmosphere, good service, but the food may be better. French onion soup was too salty - definitely not the best I've tried.
Decent food. Braised bison short rib was undersalted and somehow instead of a rosé they served us a wine glass of water. That was weird.
Food was excellent ,good service , nice aptmosphere . Good for special occasions but a bit pricey for casual lunches
Went there with good friend for happy hour. Simply delicious and great service!
NOISY , INEXPERIENCED SERVER AND SLOW . If you dine bring your earplugs and patience. So loud we couldn't even carry on a civil conversation. Server couldn't open our wine then tried to pour it through the shards of the metal cork cover. We took over! Food took almost an hour to arrive. Quality was decent but portions are "French ". Ie. Super small for the price
Quinn provided us with great service. Seafood tower was great
Everything was simply delicious!
High end nouvelle cuisine, expensive, but interesting dishes, very good food.
Food is amazing, hospitality is all aces, drinks are great, happy hour is mind blowing, even the ambience is stellar. Easy 5 stars
This places great, good atmosphere good wine, great place overall
Was treated to lunch at this gem of a place for French cuisine. My colleagues had the burger and raved about it. I had their lunch special which was a duck sandwich on sourdough...sorry...I make it sound so plain but trust me it was anything but. Tender duck with bacon on sourdough. Super flavourful! I had salad with mine but stole some truffle fries from my colleague. I will definitely go back!
High end nouvelle cuisine, expensive, but interesting dishes, very good food.
Great food a d great service
Great vibes but food is so soo for the price you pay
Delicious food - we both ordered the trout and it was fantastic, perfectly cooked but the highlight was definitely their cheesecake dessert which was recommended by our server. I normally don't like cheesecakes because I find most to be too dense and rich but the one they make at the restaurant is insanely light and fluffy. Not too sweet either, just perfectly decadent and probably the best cheesecake I've ever had! I also love that they not only serve west coast oysters but they have east coast ones as well. Service was excellent. Amazing experience overall.
Lovely
Was here for a business dinner. The service was very good, we had several servers check in on us throughout the night. The food was delicious! Would definitely come back again.
Great cocktails, good food, and a nice environment. A nice lesser known spot.

Good French food. Love the patio better than inside
Fantastic place to hold a small party in their private room in the back. Delicious food, fabulous wine selection and just enough attention.
Great spot for a business lunch. Prompt service, good portion sizes and reasonable prices for an upscale spot.
Best place for Sunday Brunch. I love the Brioche French and Mushroom on Toast with fried eggs. Pretty much whatever comes out of that kitchen is to die for
Checked the menu, aimed for couple of items, went there and they said we only serve happy hour menu. We found some good items on that menu but we went somewhere else to eat lunch. I checked the menu online and it was a "Lunch and Dinner menu" but they didnt serve us lunch.
Found this gem when in Vancouver last week. Very professional staff, friendly and efficient. Natasha was our waitress, great wine suggestions and menu information. We both ordered the moule frit, great sauce, huge mussles from Totten Inlet and the fresh cut frenchfries were crispy and hot. Fantastic dining.
Always a wonderful dining experience! The staff is very attentive, yet not overly in-your-face like most N. American restaurants. They are knowledgeable on their wine list and pairings. The food is always amazing and delicious, yet not over seasoned. One of our faves, that we make a habit of coming back to!
Amazing top notch service. Everyone is super friendly and just amazing! You truly feel cared for :) It was my lovely boyfriend's birthday and they wrote a nice card, and almost every manager and waitress and waiter came to congratulate my lover happy birthday :) it was just too sweet :) Food was totally on point. You must try their profiterole! Dessert. It's amazing! :) I also love how they perhaps read the previous reviews and added plexiglass between table groups. My boyfriend and I felt safe to be in the space.
Just your typical French restaurant. Good food, but nothing spectacular.
Great lunch menu and excellent place for a business lunch. I found it a bit more fun than same-old same-old. Service was great and the food was fresh and well presented. Our table focussed on seafood dishes and all were superb. Looking forward to trying it during the evening. I recommend this place.
Athentic Frenchy style menu and mastered dishes ! Almost a real parisian bistro ambiance, very comforting atmosphere and good food quality . Best crème brûlée we had in the Vancouver !!
Absolutely lovely french bistro. Delightful room serving traditional dishes at a reasonable price. Their servers are phenominal!

Great breakfast place!
Friendly relaxed service and delicious, beautifully presented food in a contemporary but classic bistro setting. Enjoyed the happy hour menu and a very tasty rotating tap beer.
We had such a lovely time at Tableau Bar Bistro. We decided at the last minute to have some French food on our last day in Vancouver and it just so happened that Tableau Bar Bistro was close to our hotel. Making a reservation was easy. Everyone at the restaurant welcomed us warmly and our server, Rochelle, was amazing and oozed joie de vivre. The food we ordered (French Onion Soup, Coq Au Vin, and Lobster Louie) were all very tasty and hit just the right spot along with the wine (for me at least as my other half doesn't drink). Overall, the atmosphere was informal and set the right tone for the night: good French food, good French wine, and great people who made sure we enjoyed the first two. What more can one ask?
This was my first time at this restaurant. I went for brunch. My croque madame was good, the cheese sauce was really good, and I could totally tell that it was made with good quality cheese. The egg on top was quite overlooked. Service was ok.
excellent food and setting
Great food and atmosphere!
This is the worst restaurant I have ever been to! Run away fast! We went there on a Tuesday night with out of town guests for a 60th birthday party. The service was terrible! We had to send 2 dishes back and the other meals …
Really sleek restaurant in Downtown Vancouver. Great for a date. Extremely friendly staff, great selection and quality of food, and the interior was very comfortable and well-designed. I had chicken and waffles, mushrooms on toast, and a mimosa during their brunch time. Great experience overall, will definitely come back.

ADORE Tableau...A gem of a spot downtown Vancity...I was very pleasantly surprised by the location, and the interior was stunning and the cocktail menu-dreamy! Adam was a stellar host, and super fun! I will be back 150% next time I travel to Vancouver. Oh and the private rooms they have for events, SWOON.
Great food! Friendliest servers in downtown! Reasonable portions! 100% suggest to visit
Nice atmosphere, good food, nice wine/beer/drinks menu, and excellent service. Front part of restaurant is wheelchair accessible (via hotel lobby).
Nice ambiance but the food is nothing special. I had the steak which was rather tasteless, you can get much better steak in close proximity. Mussels were just okay, nothing impressive there either.
Service was a bit disoriented, either lack of it at first and then too much of it. Our food took an increasingly long time despite being asked if we were in a hurry, they kindly provided us with bread in the meantime but finally when we …
Ambient music was way too loud, everyone needs to yell at each other. Otherwise, everything else was superb!
(Translated) Delicious! (Original) Delicioso!
Awsome food and great service good choice of happy hour menu
Awesome burger
I have mixed opinions, having been there twice. The first time everything was great. The second time while the service was great, they took over an hour to ready our main course and we simply cancelled the rest of our dinner.
What an incredible experience! The ambience, the menu, the staff and everything else in between. They have created an extremely humble yet extraordinary tasting menu. It was such a mesmerising experience. I ordered a chicken dish. Gosh! It was so delicious and so rich! Ever had something that tasted so good, and then you start feeling full but you just can't stop eating?! Yes, that is what it was like! I couldn't put my cutlery down until I had devoured every last bit of it! Kudos to the chef and the team! Or server Nate was awesome as well. I can't recommend this place enough! And I can't wait to be back! Congratulations Tableau Bistro for doing such an amazing job at delivering the best dining experience in every single way a person hopes for!

Fantastic service from my first phone call to book a reservation for my company holiday lunch to the actual lunch. It was my first time there so I was taking a risk by booking for a group, but we all had a great experience. I actually couldn’t believe how friendly and accommodating they were on the phone. High recommend!
Looking forward for more!
This is a seriously underrated Vancouver spot. Reminds me a bit of Balthazar in NYC. They consistently pump out great French bistrot food. Highly recommended.
(Translated) Very nice setting, very Parisian brasserie The kitchen could be more refined. (Original) Très beau cadre, très brasserie parisienne La cuisine pourrait-être plus raffinée.
Amazing food along with great service provided by François. I went there for my girlfriends birthday and couldn't not have left any happier..
Excellent food, excellent service
Wow ! What a lunch it was w/ my friend Sophie that I havn't saw for 10 years. The Ambiance, the Food quality and the Staff attention were on the spot. What a nice way to start a new adventure for me ! Enjoy alone or with friends. Cheers & Santé ????????????
We enjoyed eating here. We will definitely go back
Great service, enjoyed every dish. The charcuterie board and oysters were excellent and the staff seem to have a good time together, so it promotes a positive atmosphere.
Don’t order slow cooked farm raise chicken, it’s chewy and not as expected. Although the service was excellent, after we complaint, the waiter and manager apologized sincerely, and asked if we wanna anything for replacement, later on they gave us the complimentary dessert which is very nice.
Hidden Gem in Coal Harbour! Amazing French food, service and the Happy Hour is one of the best deals in town. They use to offer their burgers to your liking but unfortunately had to change. If you're staying at the Loden Hotel, you will be in a treat.
Love this bistro. The service always exceeds my expectations and the food is magnificent.
food is great, place is nice, service is good
Service and servers are great, as is the food. Frites are my favorite!
Great place for small plates and delicious drinks. Wait staff was super friendly!

A stellar time at Tableau. Excellent all around from the food, drinks, service and atmosphere. Authentic French good at it's finest. Duck confit was crispy and tender and the frites were what you want from French fried potatoes. Coq Au Vin was incredible too. Their cocktails are with trying too and LOVED their Breathless featured cocktail. Would love to go back again
Cozy French bistro. Favourite is Steak Frites. Good selection of wines. Private hall available. Hit and miss service.
They need to do a better job of ensuring that main courses are served hot, not lukewarm.
Tried lunch here today, it was fantastic! Lots of business people dine here for lunch, seems quite fancy. Service is excellent, food is a bit salty to me but overall amazing, setting is intimate and love their wine selection. A great spot for business, romance, and friends.
I had the most amazing dining experience at tableau bar bistro. Everything from the staff, atmosphere and food was better than I was expected. I ate from their brunch, happy hour and dinner menu and each time I was surprised by how delicious everything was. I would definitely go back.
Great food, drinks, and service. I'm never disappointed when I go there
I love them. Prices are always the most consistent. The staff is awesome and kind.
Modern French bistro - some fun, tasty and interesting combinations - small but expansive wine list - attentive and friendly service - would definitely dine here again.

Quinn was excellent! The food and ambiance are superb! The Canard and the steak were delicious. The only thing that sucks was the reservation/ host or hostess. We specifically asked and reserved for table 20 or 21 but when we arrived, they gave our table away. I even called an hour before our reservation to make sure we have that table but the host gave it away. If that’s the case, what’s the point of reserving? That’s the only thing that turned us off.
Amazing food! And even more amazing fine dining trained staff!

This has become my favourite place to sit at the bar alone. French speaking bartenders and staff are super charming. Delicious food served with kindness. Such a pleasure!

great prices on food
Truly a hidden gem. My 'hood go-to for happy hour and weekend brunching
Brunch
Excellent food and decent service. We came for happy hour and they did not accommodate my bone marrow order which is understandable however it did make me a little sad. The Tableau board, steak tartare and Caesar salad all came out delicious at the end. It wasn't super busy and our server pretty much left at the end so we were confused and had to flag someone down to get the bill and pay hence the 4 stars.
Excellent prices for Happy Hour, for both food and drinks. Didn't feel rushed by staff once Happy Hour was over. A wonderful experience where a group of people can sit and talk without needing to yell over loud music or tv's.
I would go with something other than meat (steak) they have a great wine menu.
Consistent food. Exactly what you would picture from a decent French bistro. Nice setting, relaxed French fare.
Very tasty. Love the atmosphere - a hidden gem
Great food , interesting cocktails and lovely Staff and vibe.

Beautiful place, the fold is as good as in France ! And I'm french :) From far the best french restaurant in Vancouver! Must have : Eiffel Tower ! A seafood tower with some charcuterie and cheese like food gras, tartare and paté! Eiffel tower + a nice bottle of white and I feel like home again !
Great food
This place celebrates the simplicity of high quality french food. We arrived at around 9pm and were greeted by friendly staff who were very very attentive. The ambience reminded me of an underground jazzy bar with few, fancy guests and classic black and white tiled flooring. We started of with a delicious mushroom on toast creation that was the perfect decedent beginning of a lovely meal. For the main, we both had steaks, both of which were cooked perfectly and served with french style fries and a side salad. For a sweet ending, we shared a delicious Mont Blanc cake that consisted of a dense chocolatey base, topped with Chestnut cream and house-made biscuits. Every part of the meal was artfully displayed and embraced the cuisine. This is the perfect place for a fancy dinner for two!
Fantastic food, setting, and nice bartender. Kept me company while waiting for table. Also, gave a glass of champagne for friend's engagement. Thoughtful
Very delicious steak frites, beautiful and tasty beets salad, and excellent service, always consistent. I can't wait for the next time!!
Comfortable atmosphere, good service, but the food may be better. French onion soup was too salty - definitely not the best I've tried.

So normally I really like this place, however lately they seem to be headed downhill. The last experience was really bad and service was nonexistent. It was more important for our server to chat with the hostess about his weekend plans then to service the table. We had to send the very dry and tasteless crab cakes back but of course the server was busy with the hostess. Luckily, or so I thought, the manager came to the table and asked if we wanted something else. He said that he was going to get rid of the food in the kitchen and would be right back. He never came back. Seriously, I'm still waiting... ???? and the crab cakes were still on the bill which was really bad because can you guess... no-one was around to fix it! Needless to say, their happy hour did not make me very happy.
Loved the food. Reasonably priced and service was excellent!
Best find in Vancouver! An authentic french cuisine, delicious! and the best was the decor is true to the french cuisine, making you feel like you're in a chic-contemporary french bistro in the middle of Paris.
Loved the food, the onion soup is Sooo good I still can feel the taste, I will go there again because of that soup and super friendly staff
Great food! Come for happy hour it's a great deal:)
Foods and price are fare.
Good food with good cocktails. Service is great but something about the restaurant has changed over the course of time..
French Bistro throwback to a vintage feel. Loved it!
The food and service is great at Tableau. We drive up from Seattle a few times a year to visit Vancouver and we always plan to eat at Tableau. The reason why this restaurant is receiving a 2 star rating is due to to the unprofessionalism from one of the staff. As my wife, son, and I were eating dinner one of the staff showed zero respect for us as a family. She gave my wife and I looks while walking by and was trying way too hard to flirt and show off. She ended up looking unprofessional. The most dissatisfactory part of this experience was that when we got up to leave the restaurant this waitress walked up between my wife and I and pushed her way between the two of us. This was the most bizarre experience I've had in a restaurant and also found it to be aggressive towards my wife. We've never seen anything like this at any restaurant we've been to. We called the manager to speak about this experience and to be honest, his answer was not very respectful of understanding how this waitress ruined our experience at one of our favorite restaurants. He said that he was shocked by hearing this but the answer was missing a certain level of understanding. Due to this experience, we'll unfortunately never be returning to this restaurant. It's a shame as this is where we've spent anniversaries and holiday dinners for the past few years.
Great food. Great service. We showed up after making a reservation on open table (Great app) for the wrong day. It was Saturday night at 7pm. They saw our mistake, but were happy to seat us right away because it wasn't busy. Tried each of the Dine-out Vancouver options. Each was delicious. Everything was very fast, but we didn't feel rushed.
Oldie but a goodie. I've been a patron for many years and I always enjoy my dining experiences here.
Good food, overly priced. Very small brunch options.
Visited here for brunch. The food was decent. The service though was not the best. Had to wait a long time and hard to get the attention of the staff.
best onion soup in the city, service is great

The kitchen was very accommodating allowing us small changes to our dinner. We enjoyed the birch special as well as the short rib.
Cozy high end eatery in downtown vancouver. Luxurious interior, professional staff and excellent menu variety. West coast inspired menu, very fresh. I’ve been here twice for meetings in the two different private rooms and they are both different but intimate and professional with excellent A/V resources. The main dining room has clean lines and a modern feel. The quality of the food is very high and this combined with exceptional service and a great room what’s this place very high up on the list of places to dine in Vancouver.
Best chicken and waffles in the city.
I took my gf here for our 4 year anniversary and was it worth it! The service was top notch, the atmosphere was pleasant and the food was without question amazing. Price was very reasonable for a 5 star restaurant.
Great!
I would never go back here. The food was good, you should not employ wait staff who just touch the customers though. I was out for a meal with co-workers so I chose not to make a fuss, but having your burly waiter stand behind you and hold onto your shoulders with two hands for the duration of an entire conversation is uncomfortable to say the least. I never once gave any indication that I was ok with this or inviting it, it was extremely unpleasant and I felt disrespected by the waiter. Very disgusting feeling, not sure if he was being sexual, aggressive or just completely tone-deaf to normal human interactions.

The food was in between good and great... it was a little bit more than good but not quite great yet. Prices were a bit high but comparable to other restaurants. The winner is the pork dish! Really yummy. Duck could be better and fish was good enough as well as the opera cake. Ambiance is quite nice.. small and cozy... Overall, a good place to visit and try.. oysters are super expensive though...
Great drinks, but the menu was a little lacking, and prices a bit absurd. 18$ for a plain old burger is a bit much.
Wonderful menu and staff.
A bit pricy, strange menu options, but good beer and the food was good.
Great happy hour deals, tartare was especially nice. Perfect seasoning. Service was exceptional.
Lovely restaurant and the food was excellent!
Love eating at this place. Great service, great food and the patio is a nice addition.
Awesome
Great food and great service
Great food, ambiance and service! Had oysters, beef tartare and pate to start followed with the duck breast for me and coq au vin for the hubs. Looking forward to our next visit to try more items. ????????????❤️
It's a good place for lunch (biz) or evening meal. I've been there 4 times. Service was good 3 times, a little lacking once. Food good and consistent. More or an upmarket atmosphere. Will I go again, yes. Would I recommend, yes. But, the really really sad part..... They can do better, and I really want that in Vancouver. I was hoping it would be the replacement for long gone the Cafe du Paris, once located on Denman at Alberni. Suggest the owners / GM visit Kelowna's 'Bouchoen' run by the prior owner operators of Cafe du Paris and see what I mean. Would save me going to Kelowna when I wanted the best french pepper chicken & pomme frites on planet earth.
Brunch: service is usually good to great, but can be hit n miss. Seems to be a high turnover of wait staff. Room ambiance is great, cosy Parisian vibe. Sound does boom around the room tho, so there's a lot of ear cupping when it's busy Brunch menu a little limited and on the bland side. Chicken n waffles pretty good.espresso isn't great. Think hotel bar not barista. With a little tweak this could be a great spot.
Great service! Sat on the patio and was a beautiful afternoon! Indulged in Hapy Hour- great drink options!
Atmosphere was great with music, comfortable seats, and nice staff. My only reason for not giving >3 stars is unfortunately the most important part of eating at a restaurant, the food. It would be wrong for me to say the food was bad, rather I should say that it was heavily over-seasoned. I had the Boar and Beef Ragout which had striking resemblance and taste to hamburger helper. The saving grace of Tableau for me was the dish another guest had that I tried. The Duck was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Maybe I just had a bad dish that night because another guest at our table was also not thrilled with the Ragout. All in all, a nice restaurant for date night or even just drinks and dinner after a long day at work.
It was great to find such a fine French restaurant in the downtown core that is great value for money, beautiful food, friendly unpretentious service and a stylish atmosphere. Highly recommended for a fun relaxing evening featuring some french classics and very affordable. Definitely going back again!
Great Saturday brunch!

Really amazing French food and service. Known about the place for a long time but never really tried it until recently. Definitely a place to go to if you want some fine modern French food.

The location is ideal - right in the middle of downtown Vancouver. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful, very clean, neutral colors and a bright. The servers are attentive and knowledgeable on the menu and dietary restrictions. The tuna tartare was delicious - one of the best I've had in the city. The salmon was also great. Perfectly cooked and well seasoned. The desserts definitely stole the show! The chocolate mousse and the macarons made me fall in love with this place. I would order dozens of these macarons if I could.... and I just might! Overall, wonderful experience and would definitely come back here again. Hopefully for brunch next time!
The service is exceptional, the food sublime, and the atmosphere chic. Magnifique.

Very happy with not only the amazing food but the great service. Took my partner here for a birthday dinner and we couldn't of left more pleased. The duck, halibut and bone marrow with tartar was stunning, especially the tartar. Our waiter Nick was awesome. The price isn't bad for the quality of food, well worth it.
Outstanding experience, service 100 points and the food, the best!

I went in there during the holidays, it was my first time at this place. I was very impressed by the service. The bartender was very knowledgeable and professional. She recommended us the French onion soup and steak tar tar that were beyond all expectations! I would defiantly recommend this place, we will be back soon!
Wow!!! The french toast was the best I have ever had. Coffee was first class. Will return in the future.
Food was cold and dry, but that wasn't the worst part of the experience. They offered us options without telling us that they were significantly more money, and when we questioned the bill the manager told us we should have known, accused us of lying about not knowing and refused to take off the charges. He told us it was on the menu but didn't get the menu for us when we asked. It was definitely not on the menu. Worst customer service I've ever experienced.
Amazing brunch at the Tableau last Saturday! The food was absolutely delicious and staff brought the experience to the next level with their professionalism and friendliness - they certainly made me feel special for my birthday! :) Thanks!
Very good place to eat, either for the breakfast or for dinner, everything was so tasty :)!
Lobster Pot Pie was fantastic and service was good and fast.

An Excellent menu selection. A very interesting wine list. A seriously french ambiance. All the ingredients for a memorable night out.
Fantastic food
Service
Standout service, great menu and daily specials. Recommend their burgers: spiced properly and can be cooked properly medium rare because they grind in house. Decor and atmosphere are classy without being pretentious. Great for small or large groups, dates and special celebration. They have a private room available too.
Everything is going to be perfect here, interior design, food and staff. I loved thaïe breakfast cocktails.highly recommend
Everything was amazing, food was impeccable, service was top notch! Best French lunch outside of Europe!
Great for brunch! Excellent service. Facilities are really nice as well. Pricing is higher but for brunch, not that expensive. Quality of the food is superb!
Excellent happy hour menu!
Wonderful little bistro! French cuisine is as expected, fairly consistent, and service is great.
Good food and excellent service. The pastries are absolutely delicious!!

What a fantastic experience. From start to finish, Juliette and her team at Tableau do not disappoint. Genuine, friendly but professional servers and staff that simply make it that extra little special on top of the delicious food. I will be visiting more! Thank you for a wonderful evening. Rosie
Absolutely wonderful restaurant with great food and great service. There is a lot of construction going on outside at the moment so the restaurant is hard to find but don't let this deter you from coming here. The restaurant is beautiful, reminiscent of nicer restaurants in Enland or the east coast. The service is very professional and something I have missed from living in larger cities. Today I came for happy hour and had the mushrooms on toast and steak tartare. I will certainly be back to have dinner. Highly recommended!
one of my favorite spots downtown. lovely space, good food and not too expensive. got to love it!
One of my favourite restaurants.
On suggestion of a friend, we went here. It’s a nice place and the people are very friendly. Food is beautiful except the toasts are a little too charred.
Best chocolate mousse in Canada! Waiters were very nice and smiling. Bartender was cute, confident and helped me to choose a good wine. But it was so crowded ( evening time) that you couldn't move around and you could hear everybody conversation, that is entertaining on the other hand)))) Nice French atmosphere.
(Translated) Onion soup is delicious! Further mushroom source of leaving the steak and the last time is admirably suited to the very tasty cuisine in rich demi-glace sauce. (Original) オニオンスープが旨い!さらにステーキや前回に出るキノコのソースが濃厚なデミグラスソースでとても味わい深く料理に見事に合っている。
Had a dish with mussels in it - one of which was quite fishy and raw. When I told the waitress about it, she very rudely and dismissively said the shell was open so it must have been cooked properly. I clearly open the shell to take the mussel out, but I don't think she considered that. I didn't expect a replacement or anything, but I'd expect better manners.
Positive experience and great service! We especially enjoyed the piano music that helps with blocking out some of the background noise as it is a small place and some of the tables are very close together. Between my wife an I we shared a bottle of nice wine plus ordered some appetizers along with our main course meals. I will most definitely recommend anyone of their pastas or salads! Overall, the food was delicious, but a little on the expensive side compared to other restaurants in the area. I would definitely go back but I would go on Monday or Tuesday when pasta is half price.
Very good food, tasty and great service.
Sometimes it is great, sometimes not. I was a bit shocked that before 10am on the weekend, there is a rip-off continental breakfast as the only option, but proper brunch happens after that. The staff is excellent and the atmosphere is beautiful. They actually gave us a free coffee that morning so I will give it the 5th star.
Overall Food: 4 Pretty good french onion soup and Seafood bouillabaisse. Service: 4 Ambiance: 4 Value: 4 Recommend or Repeat: Y
Great place to eat a -worth the price- meal. Their handmade burger is, simple, cheep, but incredibly delicious... Place to go for Frenchies like me ;)
Good French food. Traditional
Awesome food
Great brunch
Went for brunch , good food , good service .
Elegant environment and good service !
Great service. The food was okay. Upscale items and long wine list.
Server was top notch, decor is nice. Food was good. My only real complaint was the brussel sprouts, though blackened, didn't spend enough time cooking, so they were very firm, still crunchy even. Definitely don't want mush, but it wasn't pleasing to the pallet.
Best happy hour
Great restaurant, food and service!

Went for brunch on Sunday after friends got engaged. We were really well looked after, the food was delicious and the service was amazing. Great experience
Had a great night at Tableau. We were welcomed immediately upon entering and had 1st class treatment the rest of the night. It's a really fun, casual environment, with great food, all while getting fine dining service. Had the bone marrow followed by a cognac luge(super fun) and the mussles were delish! Their cocktails are classic and served beautifully. Definitely recommend a meal there.

(Translated) Last night I had a terrible experience in this restaurant. Me and my man had to wait more than 1 hour and a half for our dish. The entrance was disgusting and the noise was infernal... The service was also a misery!!!! I will never come back to this catastrophic place again!!!! After the entrance we decided to leave and even there I had to speak with 4 people for someone to prepare the bill for me. What a joke ???? (Original) Hier soir j’ai fait une terrible expérience dans ce restaurant. Moi et mon homme a du attendre plus de 1H et demi pour notre plat. L’entrée été dégoûtante et le bruit été infernal... Le service était également une misère !!!! Je vais plus jamais revenir dans ce endroit catastrophique !!!! Après l’entrée nous avons décidé de partir et même la j’ai du parlé avec 4 personé pour qn me prépare l’addition. Quelle blague ????
The fresh baked pastries at brunch were very yummy. They were warm and fresh. Had the mushroom toast and that was well flavoured. The brioche was buttery and delicious.
Had brunch here and the food was great but slow service
Staff where great , but food was a little bland
Steak Tartare was just amazing. Lots flavour + very tender. Yummm. French onion soup was a good choice too. Would love a bit of music for the mood. :)

Really good food and excellent service.
Every time I come here, I get the steak. It's always cooked to prefectly (I like my steak blue). I would like to see another option for the side salad, however. It's usually busy at lunch during the week, but if you show up before noon, you don't need to make a reservation. It's not too loud by the front windows, but it gets a little loud in the back. Try their French onion soup!
Great place to grab a drink.
Tried my first snail. Pretty tasty. We had a wonderful server for lunch, Holly. Everything was great and we were in and out quickly. Thank you!
Absolutely love this restaurant ❤ The service is so friendly and on top of things. They definitely make you feel cared for! The food, although a little pricier, is quite delicious. The tables are intimate yet used in a nice open space. You could go dressed up, dressed casually or hold a private event and the space would work. Love the versatility!
Great food at a reasonable price. Went for brunch and it was a pleasant experience. Recommend
Awesome experience. Came with a group for work on Saturday night. It was the first time in my life that I was ever offered still or sparkling water, our waitress was amazing and had the cutest accent. We got the cheese and meat board to start and I enjoyed trying different things. They do lack on crackers though. For my entrée I got the New York steak frites. The steak was bomb and cooked perfectly. The fries were served with a garlic aioli and were the best fries I have ever had in my life. Everyone agreed! I wish the steak came with a different salad as I am not big on arugula but it was delicious. The desserts were to die for and drinks were flowing. Thanks for the great time!
Came here for our anniversary dinner and was very happy with our experience. The staff were friendly and thoughtful, gifted us with champagne for our special day. The foie gras to start was my favorite. We also enjoyed our beef tar tar and and the ragu was amazing! Everything was flavorful down to dessert and cocktails.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We love Tableau bistro, spend a weekend at the attached hotel (Loden) and we had both a fantastic dinner and brunch. The service is OUTSTANDING, everyone is so so nice and they work their bottoms off. Food is great, our favourite are the duck, burger????, onion soup???? and bone marrow with tartare - LOVE the tartare ????- this place makes the best tartare in town. For the foodies out there, a minor thing to note is that the bœuf bourguignon was very nice, especially the sauce, but the meat wasn’t fork tender and had a bit of gristle. For brunch, we had croissants and croque madame, the CROISSANT ???? ????was out of this world. Croque madame ????was also very nice, it comes with a fried egg????, I’ll be asking for a soft poached egg next time and the mornay sauce ????was on the thick side (or maybe not hot enough??). They use super high quality ham. Don’t get me wrong, just being super picky for the foodies out there, we’re definitely coming here again!
Food was great but disappointed with lack of interest or attention to special occasions. On arrival I mentioned to the host that we are celebrating 2 birthdays in our group of 6. Two brothers (my sons). Not even a candle after spending more than $500 for dinner. You can do better.
The fries! The fries! Get the fries
A fantastic French experience in the Loden Hotel. This restaurant sets a quaint tone that whisks you to a place in modern day France rather than realize you ate still in Vancouver. The cuisine reads simple and the dishes are well balanced and meant for sharing as you will have a tough time choosing between the appies and mains. Highly recommend this restaurant for any meal period. The service is attentive and even a three hour dinner seems like minutes when you immerse yourself in both the social and epicurean ambience.
Always a top choice. Excellent food and service. Consistently good and a favourite place to go to.
A great brunch spot. It's small (in keeping the boutique hotel to which t's attached - The Loden), but it has a great patio and big windows that open to bring the outside-in on a beautiful summer day. The food is excellent, and the service is great. It's definitely a place that has matured well since its opening several years ago, and they have hit their stride nicely. Because it's a smaller place, I would recommend a reservation if you can.
Awesome food!
Great and friendly service, this is a good spot if you're looking for a French bistro style restaurant in downtown Vancouver. Move aside avocado toast, mushroom toast is where it's at. Steak cooked to perfection, and the charcuterie board was filling, I just wished it came with more bread. Overall a fantastic evening.
I used to come here all the time and haven't been for a while. All new staff which in this industry I guess is to be expected. Maybe it was nostalgia commenting but no Alain, Darren, Chef Andre, Nick, and Claudia definitely made this place seem a little less magical. Will try again soon though as am more than willing to give new staff another chance.
(Translated) The environment is comfortable, not noisy, and the food is of a good standard. (Original) 環境舒適,不嘈吵,食物亦有水準。

What a great find this place was. We had a large group of people going here and they had set up a private room for us. Great appetizers, very good drinks, great wine selection and incredibly polite and helpful staff. This place is excellent for work function or ggatherings highly recommended it.

Very lovely experience dining here. Servers were not only well dressed but well mannered, friendly, outgoing, and attentive. Being vegan, I was treated well and thoughtfully. However, I'm use to being forgotten about, so I questioned my …
Our party was well served, allergies accommodated for, and the meal was delicious. Definitely recommended for those looking for a nice night out.
