First time coming here and definitely enjoyed this place! All the items were very flavorful. One thing I would do is maybe ask for less salad sauce or ask for it on the side. Other than that I would definitely come back and try other items in the menu. There is street parking and there were lots of spaces inside for tables. It's very clean and spacious. Also has some items for purchase like chips, drinks, and sauces inside. read more

Fatty Mart - Pork belly bahn mi Salad Pancake taco - Sandwiches Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I genuinely don't think I've ever had a sandwich like the Wagyu beef banh mi from Fatty Mart. I was honestly kind of shocked after the first bite. It somehow tasted like if a French dip and a bowl of pho had a baby, which sounds insane, but it was so so good. The Wagyu was ridiculously flavorful, and with the onions and jalapeños, every bite had that perfect mix of richness & freshness. I have to say, it was a little messy to eat, but I inhaled it in like five minutes. It comes with a pho broth on the side and that's what really sent me over the edge. Dipping the banh mi into that broth was so rich and flavorful...seriously one of the most unique and delicious things I've eaten in a while! read more

Stumbled onto Fatty Mart while walking around the area looking for a place to eat. We walked inside and saw that they had Taiwanese fried chicken and were instantly sold. I got a combo with two chicken tenders, white rice, and garlic green beans. I was so disappointed with how salty the chicken was. Tried to offset the salt with the sauces we got which were spicy mayo and Chinese bbq, those ended up being super salty too! I ended up basically destroying my chicken just to get salty breading part off. Without the breading the chicken was honestly pretty good. It's just way too salty with it on in my opinion. I did love the mini mart side to this place. They have all kinds of snacks, alcohol, and non alcoholic beverages to choose from. I ended up getting an apple soda drink from Taiwan and it was so good! Might be back to check out the other food they offer but after this experience I'm honestly kinda scared that I'll end up with more super salty things. read more

Oh why did I take so long to check this place out?! I absolutely love the vibe in here. Cool place to grab a bite or a drink as there's tons of outdoor and indoor seating. Also love their selection of shelf and refrigerated items. In the end we left with 3 different sauces which I'm excited to try. Will definitely be back! read more

Interesting store with uncommon cool finds, that serves Asian fusion concept hot food and small dishes (like Korean Banchan). Fatty Mart is basically an Asian bodega, that's part of the Fatty Group (their restaurant Little Fatty is around the block). I like the fusion concept and how it implements Taiwanese elements throughout the menu and the store itself. It's my first time here at Fatty Mart, I ordered 3 items to try: Popcorn Chicken (4.5/5): No brainer order, you won't go wrong with this dish at any Taiwanese place. Decently portioned, comes with Thai sweet and chili sauce. I wish it comes with spicy option where they could coat it with chili powder, the chicken is juicy, they deep fried it with basil as well which is quite accurate to the Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken. Gluten free as well, at the same time it's crispy. Papaya Salad (4.7): Portion is decent for the price, the taste is pretty good and refreshing. Love the cashew toppings that adds texture and depth. Taste profile is good, recommend. Some places don't let the sauce sink into the shredded papaya, this one is well marinated and has great flavours (slightly spicy). Hainan Chicken Noodle Soup (1/5): Sorry. I was deciding if I should get this or the three cup chicken (either fold or rice platter), and I regretted it. This is under delivering, it's bland. Not like the noodles are soggy or not fresh. I just think they shouldn't associate this soup dish with Hainan, it didn't come with any of the 3 classic dipping sauces you will see in Hainan Chicken. The soup and the chicken tastes nothing related to Hainan Chicken. It tastes like boxed chicken stock in grocery store with a few piece of Bok Choy and cilantro... It's reasonably priced.. Either name it as a regular chicken noodle soup, or has some elements that's related. I could see this soup with the ginger scallion taste, this needs to be adjusted or removed from the menu. Anyways, I love to see a place that celebrates Asian food culture! This place carries flavours from Vietnam, Taiwan, Thai, Korean dishes. It has a great selection of alcohol and snacks, hot food, salad bar and Korean shaved ice. read more

It bums me out to have to do a bad review on one of my favorite places ever but I would be remiss to not do so. I had just got back to LA from a weekend in Mexico City and I wanted to eat some banh mi's at fatty mart. This was June 23rd, less than a month ago. I went with my cousin and my friend. We ordered quite a lot of food. I ordered the smash burger which was relatively new on the menu. A couple bites in and *CRACK*, I bit into what felt like a tiny rock. I proceeded to spit out two tiny dark blue, almost black, pebbles. I was in disbelief :( As mentioned, this is one of my favorite places ever, where I frequent almost every other week so I was a bit hesitant to say anything to the employees. So my cousin proceeded to ask the cashier for a possible replacement of the burger. The cook came out a few minutes later and was apologetic. I felt bad but I was glad my cousin spoke up for me Nonetheless, I am writing this review almost a month later because after much thought, those two little pebbles could've easily cracked my teeth, the crack noise it made when I bit on the burger was audible to my friend and cousin! That's insane! I'm definitely grateful that it didn't crack my molar. Also, if I wouldn't swallowed it, who knows what would've happened in my digestive tract. I should've saved the pebbles to show the employees because I wonder if it was maybe a piece of the stove top/grill. Regardless, I still continue to eat at fatty mart and I will continue to do so. Just maybe not the burger :( read more

This is mainly a review for the Fatty Fold, one of the food options on the menu. Soo flavorful and filling for $10 (heard it used to be $7). Really great employment of fusion cuisine. The kimchi pickles were also tasty, on the sweeter side and well-vinegared. Plenty of seating and quick service. More of an industrial vibe, and lots of drinks to choose from in the "grocery" portion of their spot. Lots of street parking nearby. read more

Great place to grab food and snacks quickly. They're also very allergen friendly with all the allergen notations on the menu. Love that they have gluten free fried chicken. It's not easy to find places that make gluten free friend chicken that have that crunch! Try their taiwainese 3 cups chicken! you won't regret it. They also have the hot food section - where you can select what you want with 2 sides and they'll weigh it. Few ready to go small sides such as korean banchan to grab. Love that they put all the ingredients on the food - for us all GF BFF's in the world to enjoy. Lots of places to sit as well. read more

Fatty Mart is such a GEM! I love how open the space and it really makes me feel like it is a mini H Mart or Mitsuwa. They have a variety of refrigerated and frozen foods as well as other snacks, groceries, gifts and alcohol to choose from. The food court is also small but versatile and they have great deals daily! My fiancé and I were lucky enough to go on a Monday where they have buy one get one pad see ew and although tot was delicious the Wagyu Bahn Mi was just amazing with the meat cooked perfectly, along with a softer bread so it's easier to eat!

Fatty Mart in Mar Vista is one of those places that makes you do a double take when you walk in. Is it a cafe? A grocery store? A wine shop you accidentally want to browse for 20 minutes? Yes. I've been to Little Fatty and Accomplice Bar before, so I already trusted the ownership, but this mart setup is especially fun. You can grab a legit meal and then immediately wander the aisles pretending you're only going to buy one thing. Spoiler alert: you won't. I ordered the Kra Pow rice bowl with spicy chicken and green beans and it hit exactly how I wanted it to. Flavorful, satisfying, and actually spicy enough to count. Paired it with an iced matcha latte, which was solid and refreshing without being overly sweet. The market side is what really seals it though. Huge selection of snacks, pantry items, and some very tempting wines that definitely caught my eye. This feels like the kind of spot you pop into "real quick" and somehow leave very happy and slightly over budget. I'll absolutely be back, probably hungry, probably telling myself I don't need more wine. read more

Fatty Mart - iced matcha latte, kra pow rice bowl (ground chicken) - Sandwiches Near Me - Los Angeles, California

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. read more

I've had Fatty Mart bookmarked for quite some time, and since I had some time off from work for the week of New Year's, I figured I would finally give it a try. I came on a Tuesday at noon. Finding a metered parking space was pretty easy, but I don't know if that's normal for this area, or if it's because it's the week of a holiday and everyone is out of town. The inside of the place was nice and clean, with a sort of industrial aesthetic. Lots of uncommon Asian groceries, snacks, and drinks available. Plenty of food court style seating inside, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I ordered the beef bulgogi bowl. I went with the "make it fatty" option, which adds banchan to the bowl (kimchi and other veggies). The bulgogi is made from wagyu, and everything in the bowl was very tasty. I also ordered the pork belly fatty fold. It too, was very tasty - be warned on this particular item though, it is VERY fatty. The fatty parts are very rich, and I felt a little nauseous after eating it - you will need Lipitor for dessert! Lastly, I also ordered a Thai iced tea - good, but nothing special. My total came out to a little over $37, so it was quite pricey. Overall, the food was good-tasting, but not a good value. Still worth trying, but this isn't a place that I will be visiting that frequently. read more

Fatty Mart had a lot of food that sounded amazing I had trouble choosing so I went with the pork. Pork belly bowl was amazing pork was very tender and the sides paired well. Pork belly had a great crunch on the outside and was tender as well the spicy sauce paired amazing. Dumplings were nice and crispy. People working were very nice and gave great recommendations and layout of the store was very nice with a seated area in the front and the market in the back I will Fs be back soon! P.S. they are also on Inkind making it 6 star worthy. read more

First time we tried this place it was great, the crispy pork was on point and they had pretty good Taiwanese popcorn fried chicken. The second time we ordered it was a big disappointment. The food was stale and not crispy (boxes need holes in them for delivery). The pork belly banh mi was pretty bad. You could only taste fat and all the pork skin still had hair on it. I'm being pretty generous with a 3/5, because the quality of food here does not match the price. I don't recommend anyone order the pork belly banh mi, unless you like pig hair in your sandwich. read more

I've been coming to Fatty Mart ever since they opened because I've always been a fan of Little Fatty, their restaurant/bar around the corner. What I love about Fatty Mart is that it's always evolving whether it's the layout, menu, or vibe inside, they're constantly switching things up. Recently, they've added more indoor seating and scaled back some of the shelf goods, which makes it a nice spot to hang out and grab a bite. But I still stick to the patio because there's a TV to watch games and I just like seeing the people walking by. I come mostly for their daily specials: My go-to is the Tuesday Fatty Fold -- 5/5 easily my favorite! You can choose your protein (the orange chicken and braised pork are both great) wrapped in a scallion pancake-style shell with fresh veggies. It's flavorful, fun, and satisfying every time. I've also had Thursday's pork plate, which comes with fried and BBQ-style pork, rice, veggies, and a fried bread that reminds me of a festive African bread. It's a hearty portion! My only note -- 3/5 the bok choy could use a little more love. It's fresh but plain; a light seasoning and chop it up smaller would be nice. For breakfast, they've had some gems over the years. The breakfast burrito (with eggs, veggies, and fried mushrooms) is solid, but the scallion wrap was my favorite -- 5/5 eggs, veggies, pork sausage, and a Velveeta-style cheese. So unique and full of flavor, hopefully it's still on the menu Beverage: They also serve beer from tap , and an amazing pink froze drink- Don't skip this frozen cocktails -- it's always perfectly slushy and refreshing. I did notice the frozen machine moved to the corner, so it's easier to miss now. A bigger sign outside would help because this drink deserve attention! ;) lol Service is always friendly and welcoming, whether you're dining in or ordering to-go. Overall, Fatty Mart is a true Mar Vista neighborhood gem, casual, creative, and consistently good. I always leave happy and excited to see what they'll come up with next. read more

Salty as hell, and I LOVE salty things. Removing the breading helped, then dipped into the sauce and...salty as hell. So whatever it is theres too much read more

This place seems like its trying to be the Erewhon for Asian food with its pricing but a lot of the things its selling is not up to the quality I would expect. The mart is selling Asian items way over priced for sub premium items. A main example is charging $6.99 for Lao Gan Ma, a commonly mass produced chilly oil that uses MSG and preservatives. There is a Mistuwa across the street where it cost half the price so this clearly isnt a location problem. You can even order Lao Gan Ma off Amazon if you have prime and get it delivered to your door for cheaper. On top of that charging $15 for a premade cold cut pork Banh Mi at a small portion size is absurd considering Banh Mi is supposed to be a cheap eats item even in the Southern California. I'm all for introducing more Asian food on the West side but charging premium for sub premium things is just not the way to do it. The slices of pizza we had were good and the staff and servers were all very friendly. The Mart is kept very clean and theres seating to eat indoors and outdoors. You have to find street parking outside. They dont have a parking lot. read more

First time there the workers were nice but there was not any clear indication of where to pick up or even a call out number after ordering. It's pricey, $22 pretax & tip for the chicken & waffles. The lady hyped up this order talking about how the ginger scallion sauce goes well with chicken and the chili crisp syrup goes well with the waffle. It takes awhile to come out, I finish a matcha latte I ordered there, bought a bunch of snacks and had time to put them in the car. Points for a cool ambiance and setting. However, while waiting, kids ran around, people constantly asking to move by me, I was not sure where to stand. Get a stapled closed to go bag, they apologize for the wait (nice points) but since it's stapled I don't rip it open to check. I get home and there are no sauces or syrups included, disappointed. Still the chicken was crispy, delicious and the waffle was sweet and compliments it well. Points off mostly for cost, wait time, paying for parking, no clear directions of where to wait, and not including everything I paid for. read more

Did you change the recipe of the bahn mi? It's not hitting the same. Bring back the green sauce!

(2.5 rounded up to a 3) I really wanted to like this place, but were the prices high in here. $16 for what looks like a pretty standard bahn mi ($15 for a premade one) feeks very steep - even the provisions they sell in the store were marked up significantly, e.g. a 10oz bottle of Kikkoman soy sauce was a whopping $6.99. I couldn't bring myself to get more than a couple of pizza slices, both of which were alright. The mapo tofu slice didn't remind me of mapo tofu, and the birria pizza was a bit too salty for me. The toppings to dough ratio was low (seemed like the herbs/veggies were hiding how little tofu/meat there was), and I personally wanted a crispier crust. Service was friendly, and there is casual seating at the front of the restaurant. This is more a counter service restaurant where they bring the food to your table. Overall, I don't think the high prices are justified, the flavors weren't quite right or the right intensity, and I don't see myself coming back. read more
