I’m always getting pleasantly surprised by this place, it’s a great neighborhood spot! Great spot to pick up fun wines and beers. Had a yummy Taiwanese roll for breakfast. Everyone is always super nice. Only thing is the ordered food can sometimes take awhile to come out.
FattyMart is an interesting concept, a mashup of Eataly-style market meets Taiwanese food court, with a sprinkle of general Asian grocery items. The vibe is young and energetic, with a few tables outside the market and casual seating scattered throughout the space.
We ordered the Fatty Folds with three-cup chicken, wagyu beef pho banh mi, and beef bulgogi bowl with a fatty add-on. The Fatty Folds were an interesting twist on the Taiwanese scallion pancake, used as taco-style to wrap your choice of protein. While the concept was fun, the pancake itself was overly greasy and lacked scallion flavor. It’s a pass.
The wagyu banh mi was good overall, though a bit dry on its own. Thankfully, the pho beef dip was excellent and really made the dish better.
The bulgogi bowl came with only six tiny slices of beef on a full bowl of rice. Without the fatty add-on ($4), it would’ve been disappointing. Big thanks to the waitress who strongly recommended upgrading.
Service was quick, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I’d give the food 3.5 out of 5 stars, and the staff and setting 4 out of 5. Overall, it’s a 4-star place, worth checking out for the concept for once.
This is a great place to get Taiwanese snacks, drinks and food. I had their Fatty Folds and it was delicious! They always have new stuff so you’re never bored. Service is great, servers are very nice. It is nice atmosphere. Plenty of space to eat indoor and outdoor. Parking might be a challenge. Other than that, everything is great!
We dined in at Fatty Mart and ordered the chili wontons. We ate most of them and did notice they were a bit squishy tasting but since we were eating in one bite we didn’t look at the filling. We took one wonton home with our other leftovers. Today when we reheated the wonton, we noticed that the pork inside was raw.
The other food that we ordered was better, but the raw pork turned me off :/
Love coming here to get the rice bowls and love it even more that they are gluten free! Please make more gluten free items. Also a super casual place to get a drink by yourself or with friends. Staff is always friendly.
