FAT RABBIT - Dallas

Awesome atmosphere, no unlimited mimosas option for flavored mimosas but still a good price for brunch. During the colder months, it'd be hard to accommodate a group larger than about ten. I live for brunch and the open face biscuit alone places this place in my top five choices.

My family of four dined at Fat Rabbit following How the Grinch Stole CHristmas at AT&T Performing Arts Center. I was happy to find a place close by, with a menu suitable for teens as well as adults and a fun drink menu. We were looking forward to a fun and festive holiday outing. Our table was set up and ready upon arrival and we were thankful given one teen had turned hangry. I ordered the Wild Hare to start and it was cold and sweet. I’m sad to say that our service was deplorable. Our waiter was apathetic, slow and not interested in offering a nice dining experience. We had to round up silverware from other set tables on our own, because out appetizer of fried cheese wedges was starting to chill and our waiter was nowhere to be found. The appetizer was good, even if we had no napkin with which to wipe our hands. At one point, out waiter had been missing in action for so long that we approached the hostess to ask her to find him. No drink refills and no meal order was taken for a good 25 minutes after dropping off the appetizer. Even knowing we were irritated, his pace did not pick up. My cheesy bacon grilled cheese was over-done and dry. My husbands pulled pork sandwich was such a mess he had to eat it with fork and knife. The kids did say their burgers were good. Basically, we spent $100 on grilled cheese and burgers with some of the worst service I can recall. It’s a shame, too, because the restaurant is cute and its in a great area. I will say, as we were headed out a neighboring table seemed to be enjoying much better service than we experienced.

Food quality was decent but not as good as expected. Good service and atmosphere.

The waitress was extremely nice. No one gave us any issues because we altered from our reservations and had dinner outside instead of inside. They were very flexible with seating, making sure we were comfortable with the temperature. It was a little windy but we were seated near heaters. The food was delicious! Very flavorful! The sweet thai chile brussel sprouts were the absolute best I have ever tried!

Enjoyed celebrating with my friend and her mom, actually was I was celebrating my Mom's birthday (she would have been 69 on 9-30-17).
