★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Idc what anyone has to say about this place, FAT RABBIT IS THE BEST! The smash burger was to die for and the fries were garlicky and crispy. The steak was so juicy and delicious. I definitely am going to go again!
August 07 · Amelia HaraidaWe had such a lovely late lunch here. We got to sit outside for the one day of fake spring. The Greek nachos were insanely delicious, as were the mozz sticks and smash burger. Super yummy cocktails too!
March 30 · Annelise Broussard JimenezFat Rabbit Diner is a Fort Greene gem. Cozy vibe, friendly staff, and a menu that nails comfort food with a twist. The fried chicken sandwich and smash burger on Texas toast are must-haves. Deviled eggs? Surprisingly addictive. Great cocktails and wine list, too. Perfect for brunch, date night, or solo bites. Not your average diner—this one’s got Brooklyn soul. But I would recommend additional dessert selections.
August 28 · LeviA much needed spot in fort greene! The vibes are immaculate (great playlist of folk / pop folk classics). The food is delicious. The staff is warm. Can’t wait to bring friends and family to check this spot out.I had the chopped cheese and iced barley tea. Loved the chopped cheese! Barley tea you can probably skip, didn’t have a strong taste.
January 12 · Anum AfzaalGood is good, service alright, but music is always too loud and uncomfortable for brunch. Staff play music they like at the volume to keep themselves awake. Some restaurants allow the staff to entertain themselves over the comfort of the customers.
