We went to Fat Pasha with good expectations having read all the reviews. The food was great -- the only disappointment was the Sabih sandwich. Overall, we left feeling stuff and happy. A bit pricey.
HOW MANY PEOPLE:
-Two people. We reserved ahead of time for a 1:30 p.m. lunch.
WHAT WE ORDERED:
Food:
-Pasha Plate with Hummus ($14)
-Salatim (salad combo - 3 for $14) with Labneh evoo za'atar; tahini, everything bagel spice; and chopped eggplant and tahini
-Sabih ($12)
-Pita ($1.50 - we ordered extra pita because what came with the food was not enough!)
Drinks:
-Cocktails: Nahal '83 ($13), Punch & Judy ($15)
DETAILS:
We were excited to come to Fat Pasha and generally, we were not disappointed. The cocktails were great -- I would get the Nahal '83 again, very light and refreshing. We had great service. The hummus was fantastic -- the salatim plate was great. Wish there was more pita that came with the meal.
I had to try the Sabih when I saw it on the menu. However, Fat Pasha's version was too stuffed. It used the same chopped egglant with tahini as on our Salatim plate -- when it really should be fried eggplant. It also had apple and brussels sprouts. Nothing was mixed in the pita, it was just layers so you didn't get a variety of ingredients in each bite. The whole sandwich was just too mushy and overflowing. Wouldn't order it.
OVERALL THOUGHTS:
-You should definitely go!
-Get the Salatim, and try the hummus. Skip the Sabih.
-Nahal '83 cocktail was great.
