Fat Rabbit

Fat Rabbit in St. Catharines was a win. Sat at the bar and ended up chatting with the chef—always a great vibe when the team’s that involved. Had a few drinks (okay, more than a few) and ordered a mix of dishes. The burger was unreal—beefy, juicy, and packed with flavour. Was a bit skeptical about all the pickles at first, but they totally made sense—cut right through the richness. Tried a few individual cured meats: the house-made summer sausage was my favourite, with the coppa coming in close behind. Also grabbed some Wildwood cheese (not made in house, but absolutely bomb). Finished with the beef tartare, which came with a super creative twist: crispy fried halloumi, raisins, and honey. That mix of salty and sweet hit just right. Service was dope too—got checked on often, and the crew made sure I always had what I needed without being overbearing. Food, drinks, and atmosphere were all on point. A solid 7.9 dining experience. #TomEatsYummyFoodBecauseWhyNot

Had an absolutely stellar dinner here. Big flavours, super friendly service, great atmosphere. I know this is supposed to be a meat forward restaurant, but the veg dishes are what really shined. I love that they highlight local, in season production on a frequently changing menu. Portion sizes are also quite generous. Can’t wait to come back.

We had an incredible meal and experience at Fat Rabbit. The food was so delicious and beautifully presented. The menu has funky art on it and I love that they promote local. We had a very friendly and personable server. The place has a super cool and casual vibe, plus they had a dog friendly patio which is so wonderful! We took home a delicious loaf of sourdough bread and a doggy treat too! I would highly recommend going and would go again!

Fat Rabbit is a restaurant for true food lovers. Everytime you visit, the lunch and diner menus change. There are so many interesting combinations of flavors, foods and textures, and dishes you won't be able to get anywhere else. The "mixed grill" was especially delicious. The pork belly was so tender and delicious. Service is excellent and I would recommend the chefs table. Watching the team work back there is a great experience.

Wow, what an incredible experience at Fat Rabbit! Everything we ordered was absolutely amazing. The standout dishes for us were the squid and the tempura mushrooms, both completely surprised us with how flavourful and perfectly prepared they were. Honestly though, every dish was on point, beautifully presented and delicious. The service was great and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We can’t wait to come back and try more from the menu. Highly recommend if you’re in St. Catharines!

We had such a great experience at Fat Rabbit in St. Catharines! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel completely at home, super friendly, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they do. The food was absolutely incredible. They specialize in meats and you can really taste the quality and care that goes into every bite. We also enjoyed some fantastic cheeses that perfectly paired with their beautifully crafted dishes. It’s rare to find a place where every element on the plate has a purpose, and at Fat Rabbit, it all just works. And don’t even get me started on the sauces, every single dish came with these delicious, flavourful sauces that really brought everything together. You can tell the kitchen puts a lot of thought and heart into each plate. Highly recommend checking this place out if you’re in St. Catharines. Whether you’re a meat lover, a cheese enthusiast, or just someone who appreciates great food and great people. Fat Rabbit is a gem!! Can’t wait to go back! (Sorry for the lack of photos we were too busy eating 😅)

First time eating there, love the idea of having a lot of meats, but A little bit expensive for the amount. Overall everything was good, really love the spot in front of the kitchen and the flavor of the food is good. Tomato toast truly recommended

I’ve been wanting to come here for a while, and I am so glad that I did! I came by myself, but I was immediately greeted and seated, was checked on a few times during my meal! The food itself was great, you do get what you pay for; it’s a pretty decent portion for the price. Didn’t have to wait too crazy long for the food either. Definitely a place to come and check out! Highly recommend.

Awesome breakfast sandwiches! It hasn't been open very long this place but it has created a buzz. It's a butcher/ restaurant, that's not on the cheap end. The service was great, the wait staff were really friendly. We ordered the breakfast sandwiches, the sausage and the peameal bacon. The sandwiches were sooo good! The egg was perfect sunny side and the sauces on it, had a sweet and hot spice. We loved them. We will definitely be back to try more things on the menu. The burger looked crazy good!! The space was nice and bright and open. They did a great job with the space.

Wonderful Michelin recommended spot in St Catharine's. What we loved: - it's a butcher (you can pick up things to cook at home) - it's a restaurant - supports local - fantastic selection of meats and cheese for charcuterie boards - you pick your own cut of meat and they cook it how you want. - sides are great for sharing. Things to know: - Parking is a challenge - apparently they have overflow one street over. Ask for directions. - Not a ton of seating so reserve well in advance. - if you want to go with picking a cut of meat (like steak) to enjoy, count on $$$ - $$$$ Wonderful meal though! Vibe is casual - it's all about the food!

Really wanted to try their dinner menu but their daytime menu will do (for now). Their kale caesar salad is amazing. Same with the crispy potatoes but $16 is wild to me. We had the porchetta sandwich and cheeseburger to share and the one thing that I find unappetizing is the pickled eggplant in the porchetta sandwich. We didn't have room for dessert but the grilled peaches funnel cake would've been my choice.

Only open 3 weeks and read some great reviews. It's a restaurant/butcher shop. I know, weird, but it works when they explained the concept. Came for lunch and oh wow, oh wow. Tapas style eating for the most part but the dishes were tremendous in flavour, portions were decent and we chose from most of the categories as there were 4 of us. We had Olives, not your run of the mill; samosas came with the beef tartare, blue cheese was so creamy, the beef short ribs were succulent and so on. The 2 "foodies" exclaimed that they would drive here (2hours) just to eat here again. Not inexpensive, but the flavours, the sauces and the quality is amazing. Glad it picked St.Catharines as home.
