Our Story
After a couple decades working as a travel and wedding photographer, Rob returned to his birthplace in Orange County dreaming of creating the smallest restaurant he could find. He wanted a place that had the intimate, crowded feeling you get in bars all over the world , but seemed to be missing at home.
​
One night in Madrid, he got a little drunk and at 2am decided to name his new place
FAT OF THE LAND.
​
He immediately registered it as a business in California, passed out and never looked back.
