    We ended up sitting at the bar and the two bartenders took twenty minutes to acknowledge us (the bar was pretty empty). After we got a drink we really didn’t see them again. They were rude and short with us. Unfortunately a few of my friends have had the same experience. We were really excited to try some food there but ended up leave before getting food because the service was so bad.

    Reservation was at 8, didn’t get seated until 8:30 and didn’t order until almost 9, so don’t come hungry. Restaurant is incredibly loud so it was really hard to carry on a conversation with my colleagues, but we enjoyed ourselves regardless. Despite some of these hurdles the food is outstanding and worth the wait.

    It was my birthday. I put it on the reservation and they didn’t bring anything to the table to make it special. We had to share a high top with other people. Unpleasant. I won’t make another reservation.

    Appetizers was pork dumplings, which was yummy but higher in price. The scallion pancakes were great, loved the edamame dip. Sushi was amazing!! Well worth the money. Definitely loud and crowded, but fun atmosphere.

    Good food, service was a bit low touch, the main thing to be aware of is it caters to a younger crowd. All of the seating is high top, which wouldn't have made any impression on me in my 20s but at almost 40 and 8 months pregnant, was quite noticeable.

    I love Fat Baby so much, but my reservation was disappointing. I had a reservation for 7:30 for which my party and I arrived for onetime. However we were told that we would need to wait about 15 minutes for a table. We weren’t seated until 8:07. They were really busy so we were expecting everything to take longer, it was so slow. We ordered 6 wings and only got 5, charged for 6 but never had a chance to tell the server because the service was slow and we weren’t able to flag her down. We had a drink added to the bill that we didn’t order, it was taken off but again it took so long for anything was done. I’ve never had a bad experience here before I think yesterday was an off day I’m hoping
