    We had a beautiful dinner at Fete. Our server offered dinks and water right away, in formed us of the specials and made us feel right at home. I originally had a reservation for an outside table but was offered an inside table even though the restaurant was fully booked. We were seated at a sweet little table with room for 3 which allowed plenty of space for us to share plates. We had drinks, the special and dessert and coffee. The bill was reasonable, the quality was fantastic as usual and service was excellent.

    Dinner was great! Food was delicious and portion sizes were perfect. My husband had the french toast, kids split buttered noodles, and I had the mahi mahi. The pina colada was excellent. Restaurant is cozy, open air, and had good vibes!

    Our overall experience was great. After being sat, it took our waiter a while to introduce himself and ask if we wanted any drinks. Our water and drinks came after but again, it took a while till another waiter came to take our food order. A menu item was not available so I asked him if we can have a minute to rethink our order. This wouldn’t have been an issue if the first waiter had told what was their specials and what was not available. Meanwhile, the table next to us who were seated after us were greeted, taken drink order, and appetizer order within a matter of minutes. Thankfully, our server, Alfred, noticed we’ve been waiting and took care of our food order and continued to be our waiter and server till the end. Thank you Alfred.
