   The chefs have a habit of making the ordinary extraordinary. I ordered chicken and the flavors were amazing. I always start with the fried oysters which never disappoint. We always dine at the Fat Canary the weekend before Christmas. I look forward to our next visit as soon as I leave the restaurant. Fat Canary always earns five stars from us.

   Always great food and great service. But also noticed that the restaurant needs some renovation work as some walls, etc need painting, etc.

   Whenever we are in Williamsburg, Fat Canary is a favorite. This meal was in celebration of our 55th Anniversary and was an elegant experience. Service was impeccable, our server Kevin was full of knowledge and a joy to us. As always the food was exquisite, creative and a culinary delight.

   Absolute wonderful experience. The rockfish on a bed of risotto, chili peppers and tomatoes was the best fish that I have ever eaten as it was perfect. Chardonnay by the glass complimented the fish very well and the ambiance and service were very nice. Great evening and I visit every year when I come home to Williamsburg — best restaurant in town and the versatile menu is always enlightening - delicious.

   Food was amazing! Our server was very nice, knowledgable and took exceptional care of us (I can not recall her name🤦🏻‍♀️ This was our first time at Fat Canary and we definitely will be back. I had the Salmon, my husband had the Rockfish, our friends had the Hanger Steak and the Tenderloin. All dishes had rave reviews with not one complaint or room for improvement. We had attended the grand illumination prior to our dinner and this just topped the evening as the perfect Christmas season tradition for our friends and us. See you next year🎄

    Lovely experience once again! Keith, our waiter did a superb job, as always. The wild mushroom soup to die for—and main courses fabulous. It is a restaurant with a pleasant vibe, gentle pace and outstanding, creative premium food selections. Oh yeah, the carrot sorbet — unique and yummy. Kudos to the chef and cook staff! See you soon Kevin with yet another reservation.
