THANK GOD, the Mexican restaurant next door let me use their facilities. Our waitress was sweet and the bartender made really good drinks.

Reviews were good so we came in on a Monday evening. The interior is so cute! Velvety comfy green chairs at the wine bar, smaller lounge tables and couches in the rest of the place. There is a separate room for gaming. We sat at the bar and were warmly greeted by Aria L. She was so courteous and helpful, offering us suggestions on the wines and snacks. They have a great happy hour from 4-7p for $20 wine bottle which is fantastic. The house white was good, although they ran out after a glass and I went for the Simi sauvignon blanc which was so good. The parmesan truffle fries are a MUST. Just $8.99 for a nice sized bowl of crisp, tasty fries with fresh parmesan shaved on top. MM! I had the 12" cheese lovers pizza which had burrata cheese on top oh my GOSH that is gooooood. It's rich so I had plenty of leftovers for the next day. My friend got the 12" Diavola pizza which she loved. My other friend got the Italian panini ($13.99) which he said he was not that crazy about, but he did enjoy the atmosphere and the Guiness. It is a chill place to have a nice conversation without having to compete with loud music or chatter. We are planning to revisit the next time I am here, this was a very enjoyable evening.

We visited to celebrate a birthday on a Saturday night with a reservation and were seated by the window to our delight. The ambiance in the restaurant is so cozy and rustic, a wonderful vibe. We were first brought Garlic Pesto Bread that was still warm and delicious. Later we ordered drinks and appetizers. Both the Honey Whipped Goat Cheese and Beet Salad were phenomenal and so unique. For entrees we ordered the Beef Tartare, Caesar Salad with Blackened Salmon (an added request), Italian Sausage Orecchiette, and Braised Beef Short Ribs. Absolutely nothing disappointed and everything our waitress Lauren recommended was spot on. She is a rockstar! For dessert we ordered two chocolate mousses, and Crème Brûlée to share. The perfect way to end our night. This is a great upscale date spot or place to celebrate as it is on the pricier side, but we could not have been happier with our food, service, and overall experience.

I loved how knowledgeable our bartender was of their wine selection and each glass was better than the last. The dinner left a bit to be desired. They were out of the short rib risotto, so I swapped to a chicken and mashed potato dish that lacked flavor. The skillet cookie had way too much chocolate and was incredibly salty. However, our server was great and super friendly.

Be sure to check out their daily specials or stop in for Happy Hour (Mon-Thurs 4-6pm) for extra discounts. For drinks, we started with the Hugo Spritz, Jalapeño Ginger Lime Spritz, and Prickly Pear Spritz. The Hugo Spritz was my favorite of the night and was super east to drink on a hot day. For food, we shared their famous DuckFat Fries which comes with three dipping sauces. I loved the Garlic Aioli and Chipotle Ketchup but wasn't the biggest of the Mexican Pesto. For entrees, we got a mixture of items. I got the Cheeseburger Sliders but asked for Onion Crisps instead of Caramelized. This was the perfect portion. For me after already sharing fries. My friends got a Pulled Pork Sandwich, Fish Tacos, and Fire Alarm Burger. Everything tasted great but my friend didn't think her burger was too spicy. Overall, I loved the casual atmosphere of FatDuck. Their menu has so many options that there always would be something new to try. Pricing was a little high but portions were very large to offset costs. Highly recommend!

The restaurant has indoor seating and a patio that was really cute. We were treated like royalty. Our server was a joy! Our water glasses were regularly filled. We both started with cocktails that we enjoyed. They provide a focaccia bread with buttery olive oil and Parmesan spread that was yummy. We split multiple tapas to start. The scallops were outstanding. The flavor was delicious with a great texture. We also had the spicy potato and crab cake. Both were good portions for tapas. I enjoyed both. We then split the salmon dish special that was stuffed with shrimp. Perfection with spinach. We ordered the tiramisu and were given a complimentary passion fruit custard. I liked both equally.

We got to try items that we had not had together before including the goat cheese and tomato sauce with the toasted bread. I personally loved the lamb which was very tender and fell off the bone. The staff were very attentive and friendly. They had a couple large groups that they were able to navigate with ease. They also provided a parting drink for everyone. Our Patas Bravas dish did come out a little late so we were not able to enjoy it as much since we were getting full, but it tasted heavenly with the dipping sauce.
