We had a fantastic meal and experience at the Fat Canary - excellent service and a menu with solid options to choose from. From the scallops to salmon, as well as dessert, this place was amazing. You will not be disappointed - but be sure and make
Great spot to stop, rest and refresh.
This is a great spot for a quick pick-me-up snack or brunch. Can order hot food at the grill and stand and wait for it to come out. Some seating inside and some outside. Nice spot. Good variety of cheeses, wines, and breads. Recommend.
Incredible experience. Must book though.
What an amazing place to eat. The food was sublime and so tasty. Starters was fois gras which was fantastic. Peach salad was also really yummy. Then onto the pork chop which was the best I ever had. Dessert was the macadamia nut pie with vanilla ice

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Fat Canary Williamsburg at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Fat Canary Williamsburg page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FamousStation67, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* FamousStation67 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FamousStation67 for any questions Peter may have as FamousStation67 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FamousStation67 now uses their connections at Fat Canary Williamsburg to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FamousStation67 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FamousStation67 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FamousStation67's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Fat Canary Williamsburg!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
