Review: I have nothing but great things to say about this place. The atmosphere, the food, the staff - just wonderful. I was trying to find a nicer vegan/vegetarian for my boyfriend's birthday that wasnt Thai or wasnt pretenious, its seems I've havent found a great veg place in LA that liked or would return. This is it! The staff was so helpful, the food wasnt disappointing, the atmosphere rocked! We enjoyed every bit of it! I was impressed with ome of the veg takes on classic foods. For instance, I had the vegan paella - DELICIOUS!! I most definately will return and recommend this gem :)
Pros: Great Food * Service * Decor
Cons: close early * * |

Review: I hate to be negative bcuz I'm all about looking at the positive side of things, but this place was a big disappointment. We went with very high hopes and ready to enjoy a wonderful meal, and unfortunately it wasn't very wonderful. I ordered the "pizza" which seemed more like a tostada & the "bread" was completely burned. As i hate to send back food and be wasteful I tried to eat just the top. The pizza toppings were very bland and could have used more spice. We also ordered the breads with the oils, and weren't very wowed. My bf's food, however, was a lot better than mine (sloppy joe), but it still wasn't as great as they said in the reviews we read. It's pretty expensive compared to other places, so it felt like a waste of money at the end of the night. Maybe we'll try it again something and hopefully have a better experience. PEACE! :)

Review: We only recently went here for the first time as it's a bit out of the way for us, but it was a super nice experience. They have a great wine/cocktail/beer selection. I had the pink martini - wonderfully fresh with watermelon and my boyfriend had an excellent stout. We tried the red wine flight with dinner. We split the potato taco appetizer (excellent!) and for dinner, I had the vegan ravioli and he had the paella. Both were wonderful and the flavors were delicate. We had to try the fudgey after all the reviews and while it was excellent, I still prefer the chocolate souffle at Madeleine's. In general, I prefer an all-vegan place as seeing other people have cheese fondue made me sad, but we will be back, probably with other people who aren't veggie as I think they would like it as the menu would seem recognizable to them.
Pros: tasty food * great wine selection * nice atmosphere
Cons: not all vegan * * |

Review: Really... it's the best in Los Angeles. Everything on the menu is great and I've never been disappointed (except for when they took their stuffed mushrooms off their menu). Great wines as well. Highly recommended.
Pros: Food * Service * Atmosphere

Review: I don't even know how to start to explain how good this place is. My husband (the vegan) and I (vegetarian) were starving by the time we got there, and waisted no time in ordering the potato skin tacos. I was a bit worried it would be too spicy for me, but they were awesome. so full of flavor. Then we had the basic side salad and it wasn't basic at all. It had blueberries and sunflower seeds with an awesome vinaigrette. We were two for two by the time our food came. Husband had the ravioli and I, the margarita pizza. We couldn't talk... it was so good. So full of flavor. Reading the other reviews, we were excited about the fudgy, but they said they were out! lame! so instead he had the peanut butter cup and I had the chocolate fondant a la mode. Not disappointed at all! The food was awesome. The ambience.. incredible. The service... friendly and helpful. It is a bit pricey but well worth it. About 60$ for the two of us. (not including tip) Can't wait to go back. http://www.fattyscafe.com/
Pros: beautiful. * delicious. * perfect date.
Cons: not by my house. * * |

Review: Wow, the reviews are spot on about Fatty's. It opens at 6pm and there's a really great Eco botique next store that closes at 6 so if you get here a few minutes before they open you can do some shopping (mostly womens), but back to Fattys! #1. Get the Vegan Potato Skins (called potato tacos) We got ours w/o avacado and they were fantastic. #2, You can split the entree it is huge. We did the Hot Noodles and they were fantastic (too Fatty for us to get again, but so great) No other vegan establishment in LA has food of this quality. The wine and beer are great, too. You can tell from the other reviews that Dessert is off the chart. We did the Fudgy, which is really large enough for 4 people. They bake it before they bring it out and its so hot and delectible. I wish Fatty's wasn't so far away. Its a super nice place and the service is 5 stars. They clean the little bits off your table inbetween each coarse, etc. I'd go here over Madelines any day. The menu is loaded with the word VEGAN.
Pros: Vegan Super friendly * Beer and Wine * Dessert
Cons: SO FAR AWAY! * * |

Review: This is a great restaurant for a nicer dinner. The place looks pretty casual but the food is more high end. It was also very delicious. Also the drinks are excellent, I had the Pink watermelon martini and the lavender martini, both were yummy. I would go here weekly if I lived closer to it. Definitely worth checking out.
Pros: food * drinks *
Cons: price * * |

Review: Sure I could go on for paragraphs and paragraphs about how charming the space is, how plentiful the vegan options are, or how refreshing it is to have such an extensive list of vegan wines and beers. But what I need to talk about here is THE VEGAN FUDGEY. It is the most absurdly delicious vegan desert I have ever had. It has even knocked out M Cafe's (still ridiculously amazing) Banana Chocolate Millenfeuille from my top desert slot. The fudgey is insane. I took my dairy loving boyfriend here on a Friday and he demanded to come back on Sunday for another Fudgey helping. He just kept repeating over and over: "how is this vegan???" which is the best accolade he can give. This is a great date or "special occasion" spot but still affordable enough that you can come here twice in a weekend. Amazing!
Pros: lots of vegan options * charming atmosphere * fudgey & vegan fondue!
Cons: * * |

Review: I've been a vegetarian/vegan for 32 years and I prefer to eat only at vegetarian restaurants. I'm
from England, but I live in Los Angeles, CA; I've traveled around Europe and Chile a lot, and I always seek out vegetarian restaurants abroad. Before I came to Fatty's, a year ago, my favorite veggie restaurant in the world was Millenium in San Francisco, followed by Greens (also SF); but Fatty's beats them both. The "Potato Skin Tacos"
are out of this world and the "Vegan Ravioli" is
fantastic; I also recommend the "Strudel". They have a wonderful selection of wines and Happy Hour
prices for Martinis.
I have noticed that there is a high turnover in the wait staff. So far they've all been really nice, but I did notice the last time that the waiter seemed new to the job. Fatty's is owned and operated by two ladies, both really sweet. It's obvious that excellent food and wine are their passion.
Pros: Out of this world veggie food * beautiful room * wonderful wine
Cons: closed for lunch * closed Monday and Tuesday * staff turnover high |
|
• Wow ! This is really helpful. My boyfriend and I are looking for a place to go eat vegan (but he's vegetarian and I'm vegan) food for his birthday next week. Two weekends ago I had the opportunity to go to SF and I went to Millenium (which was exquisite) and Greens ! funny you mentioned them and compared Fatty's to help.. now I know this is the place to go !!. response by darlingviolettas

Review: A real undiscovered gem for veggies. The restaurant is 100% vegetarian (even the cheese is rennet free, and all the white wines have been confirmed) though it doesn't advertise as such. Plenty of vegan dishes, and many of the other dishes can be made vegan. The food looked like it came out of Food and Wine magazine. So beautiful and even more delicious. I've traveled everywhere and there are few "nice" places that a veggie can go to outside of New York.
Pros: Seriously Amazing Food! * The best wine selection * price=quality
Cons: Eagle Rock * Limited Hours * |

Review: There's no sign outside that tells you the food is "vegetarian" and the owner will tell you that most of the patrons are not vegetarians, but once they come in, they keep coming back. From the street as we drove up, we could feel the vibrant energy eminating from the restaurant... lots of eager people inside and outside wanting the food. The name had orginally made me think of a causal burger joint, but in actuality, Fatty's & Co. serves nutritious and tasy food that is beautifully presented for moderate (to expensive) prices.
Pros: good food * nice atmosphere * vegan-friendly
Cons: getting there * * |
