Atmosphere is great and the bar offers a unique selection of drinks. Happy hour was $10 for mini cocktails that are good for the price since they are as strong as a regular drink. Our bartender was super quick and eager to answer any questions about the menu.

The only reason I give four stars is for the food. I knew it was more of a fusion type so wasn’t expecting anything too authentic, but I was still a little underwhelmed as I felt there was a lack of seasoning, and both dishes we got (walnut shrimp and duck baos) were pretty dry..

Overall, come for the atmosphere, drinks, and service as they are great!

I haven’t written a restaurant review in over four years, but Little Fatty pulled me out of retirement—and not in a good way.

Let me start with the positives. The vibe is great. The ambience is lively and fun, and the bar is genuinely impressive. If atmosphere and cocktails are your priority, this place delivers.

Unfortunately, that’s where the praise mostly ends.

We arrived right at opening (5:00 PM) and were literally the first people there. Despite that, the hostess told us the restaurant was fully reserved and that only one table was available. Moments later, an Asian couple arrived and was seated immediately at that same “only available” table. After pointing out that we had arrived five minutes earlier, we were suddenly told we could be accommodated—but only if we finished our entire meal within 50 minutes and vacated the table. Somehow, the other couple was allowed more time. I’ll leave it at that, but as two Black men, this wasn’t exactly unfamiliar.

Now, the food.

The chili wontons were the clear standout—rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Honestly, they were the only dish that tasted like someone cared about seasoning.

Everything else? Shockingly bland.
• Cucumber salad ($7): No chili, no sweetness, no acidity—just cucumbers.
• Garlic noodles: A major disappointment. No garlic flavor, no seasoning, nothing. I actually had to ask for salt just to make them edible.
• Shaking beef: Slightly better, but still underwhelming and forgettable.
• Asian greens: About 80% bok choy and, again, completely bland.

This is not an exaggeration—if you don’t believe me, go try it yourself. I genuinely don’t understand how this restaurant maintains such high ratings because the food is aggressively mid.

All said and done, we ordered five dishes and two alcoholic drinks, and the bill came out to $160. That’s a steep price for bland food and semi-rude service.

If you do decide to come here, my advice is simple: order the chili wontons, get a drink, maybe a bowl of rice, and call it a night. As for me, I won’t be returning to Little Fatty for food—ever again.

The weather was just right for dinner outside. We started off with Scallion Pancakes, Squid Ink Dumplings and drinks. Next was Walnut Shrimp and Garlic Noodles. We ended with Taro Ice Cream. The drinks were perfect, the appetizers were delicious, and main course was amazing and we shared everything. Service was excellent. The desert was complementary and came with a candle. Wonderful experience and highly recommend!

Very playful Taiwanese fusion restaurant. They had a very nice selection of fun plates, and the drinks were great too. We sat at the bar and the bartender was perfectly attentive. Happy hour until 6 pm.

I found food to be ok. Best of what I had was Lamb and green beans with garlic. Service was very attentive. They have an impressive drink menu. THE DRINK menu took you all over LA with describition of the different areas in LA.

Really enjoyed the vibe here—nice atmosphere, perfect for a relaxed meal or a night out. The servers were kind, attentive, and welcoming.
The food was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of small and regular plates to choose from. Everything we tried tasted fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. I’d definitely recommend coming during happy hour for great value.
Parking is manageable—there’s some street parking and also spots in the nearby small strip mall, though it can fill up quickly depending on the time.

I wanted to try this place because I saw the name while scrolling on Yelp and thought it was so funny! We walked in on a Thursday night and were seated after a 10 minute wait. They have a “Fatty Mart” around the corner to kill time at. My friend had the “Fatty Folds” scallion pancake wrap halfway down his throat when we received a text that our table was ready at Little Fatty.

The inside of Little Fatty was dark and moody, lit only by the glow of the looming bar. I entertained this atmosphere by ordering a cocktail. I had the Scotch Thai Tea. Boozy, creamy, and delicious. Stronger than I expected.

Our server was nice. In lieu of bread, we were served complimentary sesame rice crackers with sweet chili sauce. My friends didn’t like the sauce, but I did.

The meal started strong. The beef roll appetizer was very good. The scallion pancake pastry was flaky. When dipped in broth, the beef roll was juicy and succulent. It tends to fall apart a bit, but we didn’t mind. The Chinese BBQ Pork was definitely the star though. The meat was tender and sweet. The accompaniments were perfect. I loved the presentation of the entire shank on a tray with a carving knife – very rustic and chic.

Unfortunately, a couple of dishes fell flat for me. I thought the garlic noodles were bland. I also thought the Hainan chicken was lackluster. The chicken was fine, but anyone familiar with Hainanese chicken rice knows that the rice is the centerpiece of this dish. The rice, in contrast to the chicken, felt a bit too dry and was not infused with the amount of flavor I would’ve expected.

I noticed that the meat dishes at Little Fatty tended to shine whereas noodle and rice dishes left something to be desired. My friends mentioned that they had been previously unimpressed by the XO Fatty Noodles they got through delivery. I would suggest the kitchen revisit this section of their menu. However, I did enjoy my time at Little Fatty and would be willing to return to try other dishes.

We started the night just looking for a meal…and left completely obsessed.

Little Fatty serves Taiwanese/Chinese food with a modern LA twist, and somehow makes every dish feel both familiar and totally surprising!

We kicked things off with the Chinese BBQ pork, a bone-in pork shank caramelized and glazed with a sweet housemade BBQ sauce served with baos and pickled slaw. The meat was chared to perfection, it practically melted in my mouth!

Next, Hainan chicken, simple, classic, subtly flavorful on its own, but the ginger scallion sauce took it to another level.

The long beans paired with chopped oyster mushrooms and goji berries offered a refreshing contrast. It was a perfect balance of the bold and savory flavors from the other dishes.

The star of the night was the squid ink xiao long bao The squid ink brings out an unami flavor to every juicy bite. But be careful on the first bite cause it’s really hot!!

We’re already planning to come back for round ✌

Food is great, great place for adventurous cocktails. An extensive and obscure liquors. There has only been one dish we didn’t like but everyone was respectful about it on both ends. I highly recommend a reservation. If you are solo or a party of 2, you may have luck at the bar as a walk in but may still have to wait.

Little Fatty is a gem of an establishment. My girlfriend and I were perusing the local restaurants on google maps and its bold name caught our eye. Well, rather, it caught HER eye. And she was successful in getting my buy-in as well!

The menu is fun, funky, and fresh. It looks like a really fun place to eat & hang out. We got it for takeout so I can’t speak to the service but the bag they gave us and their logo / typeface is so unique and colorful!

The garlic noodles were hella garlicky (that’s a good thing though?), the wontons were great, and the kung pao chicken was super tangy and delicious (the cucumbers were awesome).

We ordered the “Asian greens” but all that came was just bok choy. I thought it was supposed to be a medley of things? For $22 this isn’t ideal. I actually liked the bok choy but it isn’t for everybody (my girlfriend) and having several options seems apt.

Great stuff!
