    Finally made it here. Excellent meal and hip vibes. Growing up I could never imagine a hipster restaurant bar that serves Taiwanese classics in West LA. The Taiwanese food is legit with a slight fusion touch. They don't overdo it so everything still tastes like the originals except with their spin on it. My favorite was the beef rolls and green beans. Japanese highball is addictive. I can drink it all night. I would give it five stars if the prices were just a tad lower. Great service. Will be back.

    I went there to order take out. They take your order on the curb, and then there's a take out window for window. It only took about 10 minutes which was nice. Parking was easy with plenty of metered parking out front. The Dan Dan Mian had interesting thick wavy noodles, almost like lasagne noodles sliced up. The sauce was unique yet good. The chili wontons were just okay, and probably not the best for take out as it got kind of soggy. The standing was surprisingly the Asian Greens. It had garlic and was very flavorful. It's a little pricey, especially the won tons.

    We picked up food to go from Little Fatty. See the photos to see what we ordered. Everything was hot and tasty. I love that they have the restaurant for you to go in and sit down, but they have a pick up window outside so you can easily get your to-go orders without having to go into the restaurant. See you next time.

    I've heard good things about Little Fatty and the Accompliace Bar cocktail menu from several people and finally had a chance to check it out. The drinks rotate and I was bummed that I didn't get a chance to try the Ube martini. I got the All Betts are off which is made is guava infused mazcal and it was pretty strong. The smokiness from the mazcal and a hint of fruit gave this drink a unique taste. I will definitely order it again. I also had the bad bunny, I expected it to be slightly sweet from the orange and carrot foam but it was also made with mazcal, and the smokiness took over. Still good, but not what I was expecting. Another person got the Big Strawbowski and she said it was really thick, it had brandy in it and said it tasted like a dessert cocktail. She also had the Fast Car which was mostly ice. She seemed to like it. Apps: the crispy wontons were cooked perfectly. Had a good favor and one of my favorite dish of the night. The squid Ink Xiao long baos were ok, but we let it sit a little too long and it was cold and chewy by the time we actually ate it. So the flavors were ok, it didn't really stand out to me. Mains: the garlic noodles dish did not taste like garlic noodles. I honestly didn't even taste the garlic, but maybe because as a garlic lover, I over use garlic in every thing haha. The orange chicken was also decent, it was light, perfectly sticky and tasty. The walnut shrimp was also decent, well battered and had a nice flavor. Our server was very nice and answered all the questions we had, me from inquiring about the drinks to my friend's dietary restrictions. The resturant itself was trendy and a nice place for good drinks and decent food. I want to go back and try the Hainan Chicken!

    Little Fatty is a trendy Taiwanese fusion restaurant in Mar Vista serving up great drinks and food! I stopped by with a friend on a weekday for dinner and we made a reservation ahead of time, although it seemed there were plenty of reservation slots available. Ambiance is stylish and dim inside, and it started to get quite loud inside. Service was attentive throughout our meal. What we tried: - Beef roll ($22) - with scallion pancake wrapped around wagyu beef, chili mayo, served with a side of beef broth. I loved this one, every bite was a burst of flavors and textures and the combination was so tasty! - Squid ink Xiao long bao ($18) - shrimp and pork dumplings, these were good but pretty standard compared to other XLB I've had - 3 cup chicken ($21) - made with garlic, ginger, green onion, Thai basil, dried chili. The chicken was so tender and the dish super garlicky which I loved. Goes well with rice, but is a bit on the salty side - XO fatty noodles ($20) - rolled chow fun with bean sprouts, garlic chives, and XO sauce. Amazingly garlicky and savory, and I just love the texture of the rolled chow fun Definitely a solid neighborhood spot I find myself coming back to! Metered or neighborhood parking.

    Wagyu Pho Bahni

    Wow. This place is awesome. I ordered the 2 for 1 of the Wagyu Pho Bahni and it didn't disappoint. So very good. I only wish that this place existed when I lived in Mar Vista. I'd definitely reorder from here. The 2 for 1 special was very well worth it. The only thing I do wish, is that I could mix and match (IE pay the Wagyu Pho Bahni price and get the 2nd as the Lemongrass Chicken - $1 cheaper, as the 2nd). Thank you!

    Little Fatty is an Asian fusion restaurant that specializes in Taiwanese soul food. David Kuo is the chef and owner of Little Fatty. The restaurant was previously called Status Kuo and then rebranded to Little Fatty. It is also attached to a bar called Accomplice Bar. [Parking]: Metered parking only and I was able to find a spot two blocks away on Grand View Blvd. [Reversation]: For parties of 6 and smaller, reservations can be made on Resy. For parties of 8 and larger, there is a minimum spend of $75 per person prior to tax & gratuity. No-show fee = $15 per person. [Experience]: The receptionist greeted our party just outside of the restaurant and checked us in. Outdoor tables were available, but our party opted for indoor seating. The lighting was dim with a romantic and casual dinner vibe. At the end of the meal, the staff offered our table hot towels to clean our hands. [Menu]: Menu highlights on Resy include Chinese BBQ Pork, XO Fatty Noodles, Walnut Shrimp. Other Yelp highlighted items include Orange Chicken, Beef Roll, and Hainan Chicken. Burger Tuesday is offered ONLY at the bar. A bowl of rice is an extra $4.00. The staff also gave our table a cute cocktail menu with drinks named after each LA neighborhood. *** Squid Ink Xiao Long Bao (shrimp and pork soup dumplings, fresh ginger - $18.00): Only came with 6 pieces of dumplings. The dough was a bit thick and the flavor was just alright. XO Fatty Noodles (rolled rice noodles, XO sauce, bean sprouts, garlic chives, fried shallots - $22.00): The noodles tasted slightly salty. I couldn't tell whether I had sliced pork belly or flat noodles in the dim lighting and it turned out to be thick slices of flat noodles. Orange Chicken (orange soy-based sauce, dried chilies, orange zest - $22.00): Super crispy orange chicken, but it was crunchy type of crispy and tasted a bit dry. Walnut Shrimp (mayo, candied walnuts, sesame seeds, red cabbage - $25.00): his dish came with lettuce and looked really nice. The flavor was solid and it tasted very healthy. *** Personally it was an overpriced experience for mediocre Asian fusion food. I would much rather visit Jade Rabbit in Santa Monica for cheaper and more delicious Asian fusion food or Din Tai Fung in Santa Monica for a more consistent dumpling and noodle experience. The only reason to come here is for the date-night vibe. Honestly, the food tasted more like Northern Chinese fusion cuisine than Taiwanese fusion cuisine.

    Omg I loved this place!! The food was so good and the waitress was amazing with all my allergies!! This experience with the food and service is what brings me joy. The duck pizza was delicious. Such great pieces of duck and such a fun unique dish. I also really enjoyed the walnut shrimp. The garlic noodles were okay but a little too clumpy and cheesy. I think maybe a different noodle would be better.

    Banana boi - delicious!

    What a pleasant surprise the moment you walk in! The ambiance was cozy and clean. I love the decor and set up and color choices of everything there. We had Stacy as our server and she was amazing. 5/5 for all the drinks we tried. They rotate their menu every now and then so it just sounds like I'll have to come back this way at some point when they do that again! Every flavor was well thought out and very well balanced. Food was a 3.5-4/5. This portion of my review is coming from a place deep in my heart where I grew up eating down to the bones authentic Chinese food. This wasn't it. The scallion pancakes were delicious! - but Southern China actually doesn't really do that much . The chili wontons were good. But they are different than the ones you'll order at most other Asian places. They use the full soup type of wonton to put in the chili oil/sauce. The squid ink xiao long bao was either not fresh or overcooked. The texture of the wrap was soggy. First bite of my shaking beef was amazing! And then the table next to us asked them for a knife because the meat was tough. I disagreed in my mind until I took my second bite of meat. - and it took me about 5 solid minutes of chewing before I could actually eat it. Also over salted. I think the hainanese chicken was what I am so sad over. Whaaaat happeneddddd? The dip was the best part. First, the chicken was warm. Should be cold.. The chicken was tender but it was more soft than silky so it seemed over cooked rather than slow poached. And it almost tasted like they used curry instead of tumeric - To include on the rice. I thought the rice was fine so I took it to go and fed it to my kid but then he asked me to put soy sauce on it . Sesame balls were good. Smaller than what I'm use to seeing but they have a good portion of it. Enough of the food critic snob that I've become. I would come here again. Mainly for their cocktails. They have some really great flavors. But I'll need to adjust my expectations for on the Chinese food.

    Beef noodle soup
    Jennifer T.

    After a trip to Taiwan, all I craved was Taiwanese food for weeks. Being further from SGV has made options sparse as well. I found Little Fatty and it was helpful in satisfying my Taiwanese food craving for a bit. Items that stood out for me the most were the vegetables, mapo tofu, and the sesame balls. All pretty tasty and good for Taiwanese fusion. Their beef noodle soup and scallion pancakes were fine, but I felt the soup for the BNS was much saltier than it should be, and the scallion pancakes lacked traditional flavors. I also got garlic noodles for fun, and while it was tasty and I probably wouldn't order it again. The service there was fantastic! Everyone was very friendly and the food came out quickly! I think that if you're looking for a yummy bar for drinks as well as more fusion Taiwanese (with more emphasis on the Fusion) this is the place to check out! They do have a full bar there and the place is def a vibe. For me, I'll keep on my search for more traditional Taiwanese flavors!

    Orange Chicken
    Czarina D.

    Pretty good! Some of the dishes were hits, some were okay. Service was great! A little pricey, but also understandable I came with a large group and we ordered a bunch of different dishes. Cucumbers, Scallion Pancake, Beef Rolls, Orange Chicken, Mapo Tofu, Sichuan Eggplant, Wontons, Dan Dan Mian, Beef Chow Fun, Garlic Noodles, and some ice cream for dessert. Standouts: Scallion Pancake (simple, yet delicious), Orange Chicken (done well, crispy, sweet and savory) , Cucumbers (so flavorful, loved these cucumbers), and Sichuan Eggplant (I loved the flavor and I love eggplant, but it was pretty greasy). The dishes that I thought I would enjoy more were the Beef Rolls and the Mapo Tofu. Noodle dishes were solid. Overall, some missed the mark on flavor and I found a lot of the dishes to be pretty oily. The ice cream was mid and pretty skippable. It was also December so I ordered their alcoholic hot chocolate. You could either put Chartreuse or Tequila in the hot chocolate, so I opted for Chartreuse since I did NOT want tequila in my dessert drink. I don't think Chartreuse ended up being a good choice for the hot chocolate as it ended up being too herbal for the drink. I didn't think it was the right flavor combinations. The hot chocolate overall was pretty good, just not the right alcohol.

    Once you learn to look for the hidden flavors and undertones, the tasting experience is elevated.

    Not even sure why the word "Little" is even in the name--there is nothing "little" about this place. The food is tremendous; the drinks are spectacular; the staff and bartenders are even larger than life. Oh, it's a whole vibe at Little Fatty! We were visiting from the east coast, and decided to frequent my west coat brother's favorite watering hole. Boy, did he make a good suggestion! Matt and Jason are his favorite bartenders--and I understand why. They are attentive and even artistic with their cocktail presentations. Jason schooled us on the varying kinds of tequila, and we learned about the purity of true tequila and how it differs from a mezcal. Then, when we switched to bourbon, whiskey, and scotch. Jason introduced us to Adam. Adam was amazing! He knows his browns! We left with a plethora of knowledge about several elusive brands, and we can't wait to find a bottle or two soon as we get home. We could have sat there all night just discussing the levels and intricacies of liquor. The only thing that paled to the cocktail conversations was the food! Simply put, it was spectacular. We dined and shared orange chicken, fatty noodles, and the most moist and flavorful pork shank we ever had. This is a MUST VISIT kind of establishment. Trust me, it will soon become your new favorite watering hole too!

    Pork shank $42.00
    Anna K. S.

    Didn't realize this was more of a "bar scene" than it was just a good restaurant. At least on a Saturday night. I say this because we were just looking for a good Chinese restaurant to go to. And the fact that they have hainan chicken and mapo tofu on their menu was enough to get me to drive 30 minutes to the westside for a decent meal. Everything we ordered was great, the hainan chicken & rice, garlic noodles and the bbq pork shank. That pork shank was a last-minute eye hungry impulsive choice. So much so that I didn't notice the $42 price tag. Was it worth it? No. But it was delicious and became leftovers for me! I don't understand the excess in pricing of Hainan chicken at $22 when you can have the finest authentic ones for half the price in Alhambra/San Gabriel. But I understand the markups for hipster spots. But is it justifiable? Not so sure. The pork shank is gorgeous and shareable. And it was delicious! The 4 stars is for the excellent service. There was no way we were going to be seated at 7:45pm on a Saturday night without a reservation. But they suggested the bar and we were seated right away. A typical negative for me is parking, and it's street meter parking only, unless you want to pay the much higher parking rates in the post office's public parking lot across the street, which would've been 11 bucks that I'd rather pay to a valet. I grew up in this neighborhood, and it's nice to see places like this here now. it's clearly a popular place because of the long lineup waiting to be seated. If you're looking for a place with a bar, good food and loud ambiance, this is your place. But if you're looking to just have a good meal at a good Chinese restaurant, maybe don't go here to take up bar space for others who just wanna have a drink, a date, or a celebration. It's that type of place, Otherwise, they have a takeout window. Good place for food and drinks with friends, but maybe just order takeout if you just wanna have good Chinese food that's on the pricier side.

    Is the squid ink long bao still on the menu?

    Yes! Just had them last night

    What are the hours? Is there a Sunday brunch?

    I'm only thought they served dinner but website says hours are 11am-9pm. These expanded hours might be for takeout food and not seated dining.

    Is there a gated patio for outside seating or is it just tables on the sidewalk?

    Tables on the sidewalk so there's no division between the tables and people walking by.

    Do you have OmniPork available? I heard that this is one of the restaurants that launched it.

    Limited time offering during Summer 2021.

    Any recommendations for things to do in the area after dinner?

    Bowlero is walking distance

    Is their a patio so we can bring our dog?

    No. Really small inside space, as well. The food is good. Leave your pup for an hour, and go eat ☺️

    Is brunch on Saturday AND Sunday or just Sunday?

    Both

    Are reservations needed for early weeknight dinner?

    They take them now!

    Do they have gluten free?

    Yes. About 1/4 the menu is gluten free. No gf noodles sadly.

    Do you guys make reservations? I'm hoping to make a reservation for two on Valentine's Day.

I was instantly so glad we chose this spot to celebrate our anniversary because it was the perfect setting for a romantic date night. Now, let's talk about the food! Everything we ordered was delicious, with the exception of the Korean aguachiles, which we probably could've skipped. We also tried the bluefin bibimbap, oysters, and the oh-so-tender short rib that practically melted in our mouths. But the most unforgettable dish was also the simplest: the Korean fried chicken. It wasn't necessarily something out of the ordinary, but it sure tasted like it. The perfect crisp, flavor, and seasoning had us eating every last piece right down to the bone. Our server also made the experience even better. She gave us some of the best recommendations and were incredibly attentive and friendly throughout the entire meal.

The Mulberry is a Korean spot, but no tabletop grills. Across the street is another Korean place. Mulberry serves dinner Wed-Sun. The menu is kind of "greatest Korean hits", including a few charcoal grilled items. The drink menu is pretty extensive. It's a smallish space with both indoor and outdoor seating and a darkish, festive atmosphere. Here's what we ordered: 1) Korean aguachile--flounder in a cold kimchi broth that was partially granita-like. Refreshing. 2) Fried chicken wings. Pretty classic. Supposedly half plain and half soy-garlic, but they were pretty similar. A nice sweet chili sauce on the side, along with some pickled daikon and other veggies. I like a sweet glaze directly on my wings, but these had a good crunch. 3) Chilled acorn noodle. With greens, toasted nori and a jammy egg. Cooling, but the greens were a bit harsh for me. 4) Savory egg souffle. Nice but nothing out of the ordinary. 5) Spicy braised black cod. I was worried it would be too spicy but actually was very mild, possibly tomato-based sauce with nicely braised daikon and a side of slightly pickled napa cabbage. 6) Grilled beef short rib. Delish! More like a hangar steak than short rib. Came with a dipping sauce, coarse salt, lemon and a little salad with a pungent dressing. 7) Hotteok a la mode. A caramelized cinnamon "crepe" with toasted seeds and vanilla ice cream. Delish. They also had a strawberry bingsu (Korean dairy-based shaved ice) that sounded good, a collaboration with Korean Ice Co. down the street. Note Mulberry claims it's a no tipping establishment, but adds a 20% "fee" to your bill. Overall a nice meal, on the pricey side. I do think I prefer Japanese food more, but Mulberry is a good introduction to Korean.

The location has a spacious area filled with a variety of wine options. I picked a Bourgogne Chardonnay from France ($36). We came on a late Monday afternoon and, lucky for us, they have a bar special on Mondays: No corkage fee! They also have Happy Hour-- Monday to Friday from 3-6pm. The Chardonnay was divine! I would totally return and purchase another bottle. We also ordered a charcuterie board and took advantage of their happy hour special for $20 (pick two-- one cheese and one meat). We opted for the 'Humboldt Fog' Chèvre as our cheese option and the Bresaola for our meat option. Both were delicious, but the chèvre was truly exquisite. We shared one charcuterie board with five people and it was enough; however if you're on the hungry side, I suggest two charcuterie boards for five or six people. In addition to meat and cheese, it comes with crackers, some pickled veggies, onion jam, candied nuts, whole grain Dijon, and apple slices. On the left side of the venue you have your variety of wine options; on the right side, there's the bar and some tables, plus a small area with other snacks for purchase that pair nicely with wine or beer. They even sell the Torres truffle chips! My only complaint is the service, unfortunately. The lady at the cashier was super friendly, however the bar tender was not so welcoming. When he came over to our table to open our wine bottle, he didn't greet us, smile, or say anything. He took our bottle and opened it and then asked who was going to taste. Not sure if he thought we didn't speak English since we were speaking another language when he came to our table, but overall, we all noticed his attitude and thought it was rather unwelcoming. Because of this experience, I rate this place a 4/5, however, everything else was great!

    We weren't super hungry for dinner, but wanted a little nosh on my birthday and a cocktail. The…read moreWashington is within walking distance for us so we decided to give this corner neighborhood bar a try. It was a quiet semi-divey atmosphere with a foosball table and a couple of dart boards on the dark painted walls plus a few TVs. There were only a few people there when we arrived around 6 PM. We sat at a high table by the window and the kind young bartender took our drink and food orders. We had arrived in time for happy hour, so we chose the charcuterie board and two orders of the salmon sliders, both reasonably priced at $9.50 each. The sliders were spicy and delicious. The charcuterie board was not as impressive. It didn't seem particularly fresh; the grapes especially were a bit wrinkly and sad. We could also have done with a few more pieces of toast to go with the pieces of smoked Gouda and Brie, and the couple slices of salami and prosciutto. There were also a few dates and dried apricots on the board. Well, whatta ya want for $9.50 in L.A., I guess... Overall it was a pleasant and chill experience, and our bartender/waiter was quite attentive even though the place started to fill up the longer we stayed.

    My cousin was performing at this small bar. They had a Decent Menu but seemed a bit understaffed as…read moreit took quite a while to talk to the bartender to order and such. The chairs were super uncomfortable especially if you are hanging around to listen to music and have a few drinks. It was quite dark inside and the tv screens had strange videos playing. If you are local it may be your place especially on a rainy night to stay close to home but I wouldn't make a special trip from far.

    There's nothing like finding a gem in the middle of Los Angeles. When I tell you I have driven by…read morethis spot at least 20-30 times and did not realize it was there baffles me. What's even more shocking was that I was driving by a place that in my eyes deserves some special attention! So espresso martinis are a thing and this place came highly recommended for them so my sugar sugar and I said, why not?? We made reservations and left a bit early because based off Google Maps the restaurant is on the corner of Manchester and Lincoln but based off my memory, I never saw a restaurant with that name! So to clear the air, it's there y'all, you just have to slow down and look. When you walk in the restaurant is dimmed and it totally sets the mood and my mood was steak!! Our waiter was super cool and we appreciate his hospitality. He asked if it was our first time. We confirmed and he ensured us that we would enjoy our experience and enjoy we did! First - espresso martinis. It was as if the bartender read our minds...they were made to perfection! Flavorful and you can definitely taste the balance of the espresso and alcohol. I ordered the steak frites and sugar sugar ordered the salmon. We always try each other's food and we couldn't determine which dish was better. The salmon was baked perfectly and the side salad was delicious! The steak had just enough seasoning so that it didn't overpower the quality of the meat. I have never had a perfectly cooked steak in my life! Ruth Chris who? Maestros where? I don't even eat steak on a regular but best believe it will be at the Manchester moving forward. As sugar sugar and I continue on our quest to try as many espresso martinis in LA, best hands down the best steak for me is here! Save me a seat!!

    String cocktails and creative menu make this place a bit of a Westchester hidden gem. It's dimly…read moreinside, great spot for date night. Had the chips, burger, fries, and stroganoff. All tasty and service was solid.
