Pro tip: Watch "The Bear" with subtitles even if you speak English
I missed half the dialogue in the first two episodes until I turned on captions during a loud kitchen scene in episode 3, has anyone else caught things they totally missed on a rewatch?

That chaotic feel is half the reason I miss things at crowded bars too.

Hold up, wait - people actually understood what was going on in the first two episodes without captions? I thought that was just how the show was supposed to feel chaotic and confusing.

Honestly "I thought that was just how the show was supposed to feel" is exactly what I told my friend when she asked if I was lost. I sat through the whole first two episodes feeling proud of myself for "getting" this super artsy confusing mess. Then she put captions on and suddenly I realized there were actual plot points and character names I had just completely missed. So no, you're not alone in thinking the chaos was intentional.
