They're just pronounced normally tbh

The R will be devoiced before a voiceless consonant but that's it

We don't do syllabic consonants in French

I feel like your question probably implies a more defined context, you'll have to specify if that's the case

Assuming an isolated context-neither an epenthetic schwa nor a following vowel to trigger enchaînement-how does the pronunciation of e.g. table differ from an English syllabic l?

[arctic orbit]

it's just fully pronounced, or skipped

[tabl], [tab]

more likely to be omitted in Canada, or before another consonant regardless of the dialect

"une tab' qui bouge"

also it sounds a little to me like your question really is “what is a syllabic consonant?”, so about that: English basically pronounces “table” as [teɪ.bəl], with the [ə] being very short/not fully enunciated. In many cases it would be valid to transcribe it as [teɪ.bʊ] even

that's what Cube dictionary does when you check the correct dialect option

[glossy shore]

I would argue that there is no schwa, it sounds to my ear like a true syllabic /l/

[arctic orbit]

right, so you understand what a syllabic consonant is

I was simplifying

French simply doesn't do that
