Fat Baby - Rice Bowls in Aachen

I am extremely disappointed. I ordered via Lieferando for just under €60. Then there were no rice sticks. There was no suitable alternative, so I was promised that a voucher would come later. I should be reimbursed €8.50. The order arrived a little later than expected. Then the pancakes were missing. I complained and it should be delivered later. The pancakes were actually a 2 for 1 deal. An hour later I only got one portion instead of the promised two portions and it was ice cold like fresh from the freezer. Conclusion Eating with the entire family was not possible because pancakes were delivered ice cold an hour after the rest. The meat tasted good, even though I ordered mix but only got honey. Unfortunately the rest wasn't great. The order was 4 days ago. I never heard anything from the restaurant or the voucher again... Actually, they would have to refund me €13.80 for the missing portion of pancakes from the 2 in 1 promotion and the rice sticks that were not available for €8.50. So we don't want to eat here anymore. I've never been ripped off so hard. Paid €22.80 for nothing. Incredibly bad.

The food was overcooked and died a couple of days ago. Very dirty! The staff does not know the rules and regulations of hygiene. Prices are the same as in a restaurant. You should expect an auditor with a check!

We enjoy Korean food from time to time and I think we were still open to the rice bowls, which seemed to have only a vaguely Korean influence. The problem was simply that Fat Baby's food wasn't particularly good. The food serves the basic tastes of sweet, salty and spicy but I have had better vegetables in the system catering. In the end, the three of us had three rice bowls and no one wanted more after even half the portion.😕

We ordered. Unfortunately the chicken wasn't completely cooked through, there was still hair on it and the tips of the feathers. The quality has deteriorated extremely. I would never order from there again. Way too overpriced!! At least the price-performance ratio would be right. We have a stomach ache.

The food is still very tasty, but Fat Baby seems to have become more stingy. For some time now there has been less meat and vegetables in the bowls and more rice instead. Today was a record, where, unbelievably, half of my two bowls were filled with rice. The meat content, on the other hand, was very low. When you consider the prices for a bowl, that's outrageous. I've noticed this approach for a while now and I actually order bowls for the whole family very often. But I'll have to rethink that now. Update: I tried it two more times, but unfortunately Fat Baby's quality deteriorated even further!!! During my visit 1 month ago, a complacent employee refused to accept my voucher that I had from the blood donation in combination with a discount from a gym cooperation (although this worked without any problems for my last 5-6 purchases). You cannot combine two discount campaigns. Completely incomprehensible, as the voucher is a means of payment and not a discount campaign. In the end he accepted it, but only “as an exception”. In addition, some of the salad at the counter was already noticeably spoiled. My wife had pointed this out twice, but the second employee had just nodded but didn't feel the need to remove the salad from the counter (despite my wife's request). It was probably distributed even further. And when I visited fatbaby today, the rice in all three bowls I bought was so soggy and almost inedible. Something like this shouldn't happen, especially since the prices have now been raised!!! 😡😡😡 It's unbelievable how the quality has deteriorated so drastically! And I already ate there when Fatbaby opened in the Aquis Plaza (with a very, very nice Hawaiian owner who was in the mood for small talk) and have ordered food there every 2-3 months since the first and second opening in Oppenhoffallee . I think that's enough for now.

It used to be much better. The quality has deteriorated catastrophically and prices have risen catastrophically. It's not worth it anymore. The ambience and service are de facto non-existent, the food is much better elsewhere.

I ordered 2 bowls online yesterday because I was sick and unfortunately the rice was uncooked. I am a regular customer, eating rice bowls from here for 2 years - we need more quality control. I also called the store to let them know - the woman apologized profusely and promised a voucher code but I didn't get it. Besides, taste 9/10, rice 5/10, service 6/10

It used to be much better. I've pre-ordered and paid online the last few times and got half-cold food every time. There is no response to my complaint either on Instagram or by email. It's a shame because I've always really appreciated the good food. The service in the store is still great.

Never again FatBaby!! Ordered there for the first time a few weeks ago and it was relatively good. Today we ordered for the second time and really regretted it. Both dishes had no sauces, the rice was almost raw and the meat seemed old and dried out! And just paid €40 for it.

Had the bibimbap bowl. The taste was good, the toppings were ok but the meat was unfortunately very thick, rather chunky and relatively tough. It also looked very fibrous. The rice was still a bit firm at the core. Overall, the base was bad but the remaining toppings were quite good.

I always get a bowl here when I drive by. I am always totally satisfied. The food is super tasty and the employees are very polite and it's always super quick!

Very tasty food and quick service.

Really delicious food and extremely nice team.

Ordered six bowls and they all came without sauce. In addition, the delivery time took over 90 minutes. The food was almost cold. We won't be ordering from there anymore. Very big disappointment and a completely different experience than before.

Very warm welcome, very clean and very good. I will come back

I used to really enjoy ordering from Fat Baby Bowls and yesterday I really wanted it again after a long time. Unfortunately I have to agree with many other reviews, it was a big disappointment. Both the quality and the quantity of the portion were very disappointing. The portions of meat and toppings are much smaller than before and the bulgogi was dry and burnt, feeling like it was from the day before or earlier. I don't see the point of paying almost €13 for it...It's a shame, but I think it was my last visit.

I have ate Korean bowls and food prior too but nothing like this , it was not what I hoping to eat no taste nothing not even salt I don't recommend to this anyone

It has now become a real catastrophe, it's really brave to charge such prices for a bowl that consists of 90% rice and toppings that hardly taste anymore. I really liked ordering earlier but it got worse every time... I'll definitely close again soon..

Large selection, generous portions and super friendly staff :)

Ordered for delivery and more than just disappointed. 98% rice, 2% topping and 0% sauce. Rice was a big lump, totally sticky and not edible. There were 9 pieces of pepper, approx. 2x1cm (despite the double portion) and there was virtually no sauce! Edamame and bean sprouts were also eaten with a fork (more decoration than topping) Absolute impudence to charge such prices for such bad food. First and last time ordered here!

It's a shame, the food used to be really tasty, but today I threw half of it away. The fried chicken was not edible: the meat tasted clearly spoiled, the tofu was old and dry and the rice was completely overcooked and tasted of nothing. The coleslaw had also seen better days and was no longer fresh. That was probably my last visit here. A pity!

This was my first time eating Korean food. I ordered Crispy Teriyaki Chicken and I enjoyed it!

It was previously the best korean food in Aachen, however it's a shame that the quality has dropped significantly. The bulgogi beef, tofu, and pancake are dry, cold and rubbery. I hope they can bounce back from this and really want to see them succeed.

Really delicious vegan bowl, everything with the right consistency and the best taste! Gladly again :)

We enjoyed Crispy Chicken with Teriyaki Sauce and Spicy Sweet & Sour and would love to come back! It's great to find a Korean way to eat with rice!

Merga cool. Free food after Chio 🤩

Tasty, healthy and nice service!

We ate the bowls at the tournament in Aachen and they were super tasty.

What great! Thank you very much 🙏🏼

So one thing in advance: at the beginning, when the shop opened, I would have easily given it a full 5 stars. The tide has now completely turned... the last few times the bowls were cold, several banchans were forgotten, the egg was very over salted, and more rice than anything else - and it comes with either far too little or far too much sauce. The brownies used to be nice and moist, but now they're just dry. In addition, today ours tasted like perfume or deodorant or something similar, which is not possible. I'm sorry guys, but after so many botched orders I feel compelled to write a bad review in the hope that the quality will improve again in the future :(

Unfortunately, quality is getting worse and worse. Cold food, fewer side dishes > more rice, I think they're taking austerity measures because people are coming anyway. Sales will probably have to suffer first before countermeasures can be taken.

Delicious food, something completely different, reliable delivery and a polite young team.

The food itself was delicious, but the service was incredibly unsympathetic. When an influencer dressed as a homeless person entered the store and politely asked for something to eat or suggested exchanging something, he was sent away with a smile. Even worse, when he turned around, the staff looked at him with disgust and snooty looks and laughed mockingly. This behavior spoiled the entire atmosphere in the store to such an extent that it was impossible to enjoy the food. It's a shame that what was actually a good meal was ruined by such inappropriate behavior.

The rice was overcooked and the chicken didn't taste like anything.

Best bowls in Aachen. Delicious!

Mega nice employees: Jakub, eGhali, Mahan and super delicious food can only be recommended

Super delicious food, great service!

Always super tasty, fresh and healthy food 😊

The food used to be really great but isn't anymore. Don't order chicken here. It might still be raw on the inside which is a health risk.

It used to be much better Now if you order one more topping you get a lot less of the others. We got 2 slices of cucumber and zucchini, a level tablespoon of spinach and a spoonful of lettuce. When asked directly, they just say that it's always like that, so now it's just bad! About 85% rice and 5% paid regular, 10% extra paid toppings. I would like to be able to at least say that it tastes good, but the toppings are similar and taste very bland, everything is soaked in fat, even the outside of the bowl. Thank you very much

We ordered extra protein with our bibimbap bowl. Unfortunately, the toppings were saved because the bowl was barely filled... Very disappointing because the food was actually really good.

We ordered yesterday and unfortunately the delivery was not complete. After consulting over the phone, we were assured that they would deliver the items later, with the addition that it would take some time. Spoiler alert, nothing was delivered. Food was still quite good.

The store is super accommodating. I accidentally ordered the wrong thing during a two for one promotion and only got one bowl. We called and explained that there were two of us and it was really stupid for us. The nice man on the phone then sent us a bowl. Thank you! :)

Perfect for lunch or dinner All employees are always friendly and accommodating. Quick preparation If you could offer seating soon that would be great.

I think it's a shame that the bowls are getting sharper and sharper. Since I ordered from Fat Baby for the first time (approx. 2 years ago), I have always used the same ingredients (vegan) and each time the bowl becomes spicier and is now inedible for me. I actually tolerate spiciness quite well, but my tongue burns, my throat burns and my nose runs. It's a shame... I actually really enjoyed eating at Fat Baby. But the employees are always super nice!

I actually liked Fat Baby a lot, but the last visit was pretty tough. Walked into the store, music so loud that you couldn't hear the person behind the counter. Our moderately successful communication doesn't give him the idea that sometimes less is more. The food itself is still pretty tasty overall, but ice-cold zucchini and pancakes that are chewy as a shoe sole are a new experience that I don't need on a regular basis. A little more meta: The fact that the owner kisses the feet of all the 5-star reviewers here, but never asks questions when criticism is objectively presented, does not speak for honest customer orientation. It's a real shame, Fat Baby was really great at the beginning, but the journey seems to be heading towards mediocrity.

Super good and tasty. Price/performance is absolutely right

Simply incredibly delicious bowl! I can definitely recommend enjoying one there. The fire chicken is very tasty and recommended to every fan of spiciness 🔥

I ordered 2 bowls from Uber Eats but the wrong items arrived. They were never available to answer the call and I contacted Instagram, but they ignored my messages and didn't even apologize. The eater used to be much better, but is now very disappointing. The service has now completely deteriorated. Unfortunately, it is now not recommended to order or buy anything here.

Although I’ve ordered dozens of times here and had great experience, I would never consider this kind of food is to be “enjoyed” by customers.

Really delicious bibimbap with great toppings. However, the service leaves a lot to be desired. The people behind the counter seem inexperienced and sometimes overwhelmed. Every time I visited I had to be careful to get the right one and it wouldn't have worked on its own. An example: you order an extra fried egg on top and the egg is forgotten or ends up in the wrong bowl in a group order. Or: you pay extra for a bag to make it easier to take with you, but the bag is then forgotten and only given to you when you ask. Every kebab shop gets the orders better, with multiple times the throughput and drunk customers at night. It's always just little things and the food is really tasty, but these little things make the store really annoying in the long run. I don't understand what can be so difficult about coordination.

Noodles were ok. Unfortunately the rest wasn't. Dumplings and nibbles fried to death. You couldn't eat, let alone chew. Waiting time for delivery 2 hours. Food was cold. Unfortunately it has worn off a lot.

Ordered on the website for over €40, food didn't come, no one answers the phone.

Japchae there is so much oil. Still, everything tastes pretty ok

I ordered food by delivery but it didn’t receive me in 1.5h, even no one answered the callings, actually I don’t get the food until now and I’m not sure whether I can receive it eventually and have dinner today since no one answered me!!!

Ordered food and never received it, despite paying in advance. Nobody answers the phone or you are pushed away. Absolute disgrace to treat customers like that. Never again. Edit: after two and a half hours the cold food finally arrived, the poor driver got the hassle.

Yesterday I ordered bowls for the first time. Well, we waited for a long time... called several times... only to be able to enjoy these really delicious bowls after 2 hours... AND they apologized to me a thousand times, refunded the entire bill AND added a voucher or. That's what I call customer service!!!

How difficult is it to improve your delivery system? I'm writing this while I've been waiting for two bowls for 2 HOURS. My roommate has had it worse, even for 3 hours. experienced. We live 700m from the restaurant. You would have had to walk there. And then the food comes COLD!!!!

We ordered a delivery for lunch, that took ~90 minutes. Couldn't reach the place by phone ( delivery support also didn't manage to do it). Vegetables and rice was ok, but meat (chicken together with skin or i don't know what can explain hairs and beef) was not good at all.

I got Nibbles there and thought that I was getting reasonable meat for the price. Unfortunately, far from it. It looked like using up leftovers and it was more breading than anything else. The chicken meat is far from tender and good quality. I can't understand the good reviews.

Conceptually “a slightly different bowl”, the food was quite greasy and salty, but the taste was okay. Portion very large and reasonably priced. Staff friendly. It's a shame you can't eat on site.

I tried korean spicy fire chicken bowl and was utterly disappointed….there was no chicken and no fire that is all i can say, bland and boring. Explanation: when i ordered Korean spicy fire chicken i expected the bowl to have some nice big chunky pieces of spicy fried chicken with some nice hot spicy garlic sauce, but actually there were just some diced small pieces of chicken( which you usually find in every asian shop in a chicken noodle box but this is was even smaller and tasteless), no flavor, bland, no spices, average flavoured garlic sauce, i have attached what i expected but certainly not what i got

The food is delicious, BUT... We waited almost two hours for our food. The announced delivery time was one hour. After we called after 1.5 hours, the lady on the phone told us (after we finally got through after being busy a few times) that the driver had broken down, but got entangled in contradictory statements. First a new driver had to pick up the order when the breakdown occurred and when we were concerned that the food would probably be cold, we were told that the driver had driven off with a new order. The apology cookie announced over the phone was not there. Just the one that was already included in the order as a free March promotion. It's definitely too expensive for such a service!

Nibbles are tasty but not enough for over €20. I ordered an L portion and there were 10 pieces that were the size of half of my thumb. Very rude supplier. After the call, the delivery person said that he didn't have time to wait that long and wanted to finish work sooner. That's why he put the food in front of the door and left it open. The box with the nibbles was also open and therefore cold.

Unfortunately the quality of the bowl always varies. Super tasty, warm and large quantity in one day. On other days there was little to no banchan available, the bowl was cold. I think it's really tasty, we come really often. But the fluctuating quality is really super annoying..

I ordered chicken combo for lunch today and was extremely satisfied with the food as well as the delivery. The delivery was prompt and the delivery person (a tall, muscular guy with a beard) was also very friendly. 10/10

The best Korean food in Aachen. What I miss is the seating and it is usually very hectic and crowded because of the delivery service.

I ordered this evening and first of all the delivery was really super fast and the delivery person with the curls was very friendly and brought the food to our door even though we live on the 5th floor.. gladly again 🙏🏼 Of course the food was also delicious 👀

I ordered something for the first time today, according to the order it was supposed to arrive at 1:03 p.m. and it was there at 12:37 p.m. A huge plus here and then the food, it's really very tasty :)

I waited until after my third order to give my review. The first time the food was great but the delivery took far too long. However, the driver was very accommodating and brought me a brownie as an apology. The second time my order arrived after 20 minutes even though I live in Haaren. Cheers! I have never eaten food like this anywhere before and it cannot be compared to ordinary bowls. Exceptional spices that this cuisine uses. As an athlete, Fatbaby is my first choice because the food is so protein-rich and healthy.

Had to wait a little longer than the stated waiting time (~20 minutes) but that's fitting for Carnival But the Superbowl chicken wings are really not recommended :S no salt in the breading, tastes like nothing. Daw meat itself also has virtually no taste. So even with sauce it's just not enjoyable. It was somehow very disappointing :( The wings that you can make yourself in the oven for a quarter of the price are much better. Last time the bowl was significantly better but also well priced. **The restaurant responded very kindly to the criticism and since we otherwise had a good experience, I am adjusting my rating accordingly. Nevertheless, things seem to go wrong every now and then

Great food, very friendly staff. I had minor issues when ordering online, for example mixing up what extras goes in what bowl in the past, but the food is always delicious. Ordering in person guarantees a good experience and staff has always been super friendly. Only downsides are limited space in front of the counter and no dine in possibility. But imo you have to try fat baby if you live in Aachen.

Avoid! Not recommended!! The food didn't arrive. Have ordered here twice. Wolt said that the estimated delivery time was around 30 minutes but after two hours the food still didn't arrive. There's nothing I can do except cancel the order. Super disappointed because it wasn't like that before. That's not what you call a delivery service. P.s. I first called to ask about the exact delivery time, and the other side said that the delivery person was already out. I ended up contacting the Wolt team to cancel the order. So, it seems the food was never ready...

Best wings and the service is great. Delivery was 10 earlier than expected and patient #superbowlwings

It's really a horrible and bad experience , don’t waste your hard earned money. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤢🤢🤢

We came across this shop by chance and tried it out a bit. The food is so authentic and delicious. We were simply thrilled. The bowls are powerful and filling, the level of spiciness is absolutely acceptable and you can taste the different things really well. We enjoyed it so much that we even went back to eat there shortly afterwards and this time it was excellent too. The only drawback on our part is that unfortunately there is no salmon. That would be an on top star, so it gets full points. Absolutely recommended and we would be happy to order again. Ps: The staff is attentive, friendly and prepares the food with joy.

After we have not received a response to our complaint for over a week (both by telephone and to the email address provided to us), I am writing this review. The food was initially delivered late - that can happen, especially on a Sunday evening. Unfortunately it wasn't completely cold and partly cold. When we asked over the phone, we were told that the food would be delivered within an hour. After 2 more hours of waiting, non-delivery of the missing food and loss of appetite, we asked again and were told that the food was still in the store. We then canceled the subsequent delivery and asked for a refund of the corresponding amount. According to the employee, only the management, who we wanted to contact directly, but were referred to the general information email address, can do this. We wrote the email accordingly, but unfortunately we have not received any response to date. We actually enjoyed ordering and eating there, unfortunately the service isn't that good and we won't be ordering any more for now.

I've always found the food very tasty. What doesn't work at all, however, are the delivery times. Even when I ordered in advance, the food didn't arrive until 45 minutes after the stated time. Nobody answered the phone either. I'm wondering what the point of that is. Well, without a pre-order it usually takes 2 hours, so it's even worse. We didn't get the promised brownies as an apology either. I would definitely advise against ordering here if you don't want to wait forever.

Food was great - but delivery was disastrous. We ordered on Sunday around 8 p.m. Shortly afterwards I received an email saying that our delivery should arrive by 8:50 p.m. at the latest. We waited in vain. After a while I tried to call the restaurant several times, but no one answered the phone. Then finally around 10:25 p.m. the delivery arrived. I understand that it can take a LITTLE longer, but then you have to inform your customers about it. At least the food was super tasty. I probably won't have anything delivered from here in the near future.

I ordered takeout and it didn't arrive for 2 hours. Then it showed that the order was completed. I was really convinced.

I don't understand the hype about this store. I've almost always been dissatisfied so far, but today I thought I'd try it again because I was craving Korean pancakes. My order came half an hour late and the pancakes were missing. The rest was cold. Tofu tasted like it had been on the counter yesterday and the rest was nothing special. The best part of the order was the thirst quencher. But you can get it much cheaper in kiosks.

I have ordered here a bunch of times and today I was there for the first time. A quaint little store but with so much going on. We had to wait a bit but it was definitely worth it! The staff were also very polite and friendly. Everything tasted amazing just like always!

We ordered 2 chicken bowls, which arrived cold after about 2 hours and despite calling several times, no one answered. A bottomless impudence. Never again

Very tasty bowls and good value for money!

Yes, the bowls are nice, but the delivery is a disaster. Waiting times of more than 2 hours are not acceptable for a delivery service.

It couldn't get any worse...we waited almost 2.5 hours for the delivery, then the food was cold and even though we had specifically noted that the bell shouldn't be rung...the bell still rang. The food was completely over-spiced and we didn't taste anything except spicy...we were very happy but that was a very big disappointment.

Problem paying in cash. So if you don't have any money in your account you shouldn't order here is the message. Cash is not accepted here. Very bad ! I've always loved the food so far, but anyone who came up with such an idea should be fired. I was planning to order for €100 but was forced to pay with credit/Giropay or Paypal

Delicious! The snack box is great for the lunch break

Ordered food just after 4 and it didn't arrive until just after 7, so a 3 hour wait and when I called no one answered. At least the food was warm, but the pork was seasoned far too strongly, otherwise it is always much milder. Just a shame.

Wir haben dort gestern zum ersten Mal bestellt. Top Essen, super lecker und frisch. Warm geliefert trotz Wegzeit von ca 15 Minuten. Bestellen jetzt öfter

Sehr leckeres koreanisches Essen. Preis- Leistung ist vollkommen in Ordnung. Das Einzige was mich gestört hat war, das die Papierbowl von außen mit Essen verschmiert war und als ich darum gebeten hatte, mir eine saubere zu geben, wurden mit Servietten in die Hand gedrückt. Nichts desto trotz mag ich das Essen und die Qualität ist gleichbleibend gut.

Das Essen ist normalerweise super lecker aber leider hatte ich bei meiner letzten Bestellung, die vegetarisch sein sollte, anstatt Tofu, Fleisch drinnen. Sowas sollte echt nicht passieren und hat mir das Essen leider total versaut.

Ich habe am Montag Abend bestellt und meine Bestellung 2:30h später erhalten. Die Begründung war es seien viele Bestellungen zeitgleich aufgegeben worden. Das Essen kam natürlich kalt an. Hier wurde mit Absicht ein große Fahrt geplant. Wohl mit dem Wissen das, die Bestellung nicht warm ankommen wird. Ich habe früher sehr gerne und oft in dem Laden gegessen und auch bestellt. In absehbarer Zukunft werde ich dies wohl nicht mehr tun. Essen war ok wurde aber sehr davon beeinträchtigt alles nochmal warm zu machen. Vor allem das Hähnchen.

Absolut überteuert und die rice cakes haben den doppelten Preis für die Hälfte des Inhalts das es vor 2 Jahren hatte. EDIT: Haben auch kein bulgogi mehr welches das beste war was sie zu bieten hatten. -5 Punkte würde ich am liebsten geben.

Über Lieferando keine Liefergebühr ab 40€. Auf der Seite selber bestellt für knapp 80€ und 3,50€ Lieferhebühr. Dann wundert euch nicht das über Lieferando bestellt wird.

In drei Monaten 3x liefern lassen. Sehr gutes Essen, schnelle Lieferung ( 50 Minuten ) und klasse Service. Schmeckt ausgezeichnet 👍

This place is legendary. It is certainly one of my favorite restaurants in Aachen for delivery. I can‘t say much about dining in, as I have only very rarely been there in person. The Bowls are incredibly delicious, you really notice that they spent quite a bit of time refining their recipes. I always order Nibbles with my bowl, as I can‘t get enough of their super crispy chicken with their rich, sweet honey butter sauce. It is a busy place, so it may rarely happen that your order gets messed up. Otherwise, I really cannot think of anything bad to say about this restaurant. I encourage you to give it a shot!

为什么bibimbap没有肉 还卖15 比crispy chicken还贵一块钱 这年头肉还没蛋值钱了是吗

Sehr nette Leute arbeiten da! Das Essen ist lecker. Vielen Dank!

Adorei mesmo, forma criativa de comer comida coreana, doses super bem servidas, a normal deu-me para duas refeições. Aconselho muito experimentarem o frango frito como uma das proteínas (é mesmo muito bom). Não têm espaço para comer no local, mas podem sempre pegar takeaway ou mandar vir pela ubereats (não sei se têm serviço de entregas próprio)
