Wine pairing menu is great
Excellent, well prepared food made by a careful, well-trained staff and offered in thoughtfully assembled tasting menus.
Pasta is a strong point.
The service was spot on and the food was some of the best I’ve eaten. Sat up at the bar and had Chef Brian and his sous chef, Vinny explain each dish just added to the already fantastic experience. You have to check it out.

Fat Hen offers a varied and delicious appetizer selection, with highly rated oysters. There are limited non-meat options for pastas and entrees. Some guests found the carbonara pasta to be not a favorite. The restaurant has a great atmosphere, described as quiet and relaxed, with friendly staff who accommodate late arrivals. They provide a special 3 or 4 course dinner, featuring unique and delicious dishes. Recent guests enjoyed the shrimp gnocchi, which was creamy and filling, although some felt it was basic for the price. Desserts like the pistachio cake with grapefruit and vanilla ice cream received high praise, especially as a takeout item. A recent Valentine's Day special featured a salmon crudo and rewarding second courses of funghi and creamy shrimp with gnocchi. The extra price Wagyu filet was well-received, and desserts were noted as light and innovative. Overall, Fat Hen is recommended as a nice date night spot with impeccable service and well-paired wines.
