The service was extraordinary. Our waitress was amazing, but the restaurant didn't live up to the reviews. There was dirty silverware and dirty glassware. The appetizers were unremarkable, they even refunded one of the options. The main courses were heavy and soulless. I hope they can turn this place around , it could be great, but we did feel like we were on a reality TV show where the kitchen is a mess.
We had a special 3 course prix fixe menu for Valentnes day. That lined us up for 3 courses when we might have settled for 2. A salmon crudo with horseradish panna cota might have sounded affected, but it was a wonderfully flavored primo course. Secondis built around herbally sauced funghi and creamy shrimp with gnocchi were rewarding and plentiful. We both ordered the extra price Wagyu filet which lived up to its promise on a bed of seared greens. Desserts were light and innovative. Our choices of flanand a pudding with ice cream werea perfect ending to our great meals.
A terrific evening on Tuesday, many course of food and two bottles of red wine, and our server Brian was terrific!
The overall experience was fine. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The food - especially the swordfish- was very good as were the appetizers. However, we felt rushed. We were not asked if we wanted a second drink. We were still working on our meal when we were asked if we wanted a box to go. We were not asked for coffee or dessert.

One of our favorite restaurants. Food is delicious and service is outstanding. A hidden gem
Ate at Fat Hen yesterday with a friend. We utilized a City Gilt certificate for a 4 course and a wine pairing. We had the best meal! Everything was delicious and the wines were well paired with the food. Service was also impeccable! Thank you for a memorable meal!

Had a perfect night out with a friend here. We loved the chic decor and there were so many things on the menu we were excited to try. The Milanese pork was outstanding !! It’s a must. Great cocktails too. Will be coming back!

Food was great! The pork shank appetizer was especially good! Place was very quiet. Small place with maybe 10 tables. Great for a date night.
