Ok, they were not busy. We still had to wait 13 minutes to be seated. We were advised the manager did not want the staff over whelmed. Once seated the booths were unkempt. There were no salt and pepper shakers at our table.Our server did not keep us waiting. She came right over. She took our order no problem. Only one mistake when our food came out but no big deal. It was difficult to get napkins and drink refills, but she did her best.. We ordered wings and salad. The wings were cooked properly but the flavor was nothing to write home about. The salad we ordered, the Chef salad was on point. All in all a mediocre meal at best. Probably will not go back.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Fatz offers the same meals as many chain restaurants do, so definitely not 4/5 stars there. What really have them 4 stars was the service and the flavor (sauce, seasoning). Incredible. Their house dressings were fantastic.I had two (2) of them: Southern Gold and the Kentucky Bourbon. SG was smoothly on the sweet side with a mustard flavor and the Bourbon had a little kick. It was hard to decide what I wanted to dip my food into. I ended up with the Wings and Bash which my wings were nice and crispy, and very tender and juicy. The wings were thick and had lots of meat on them. I had these tossed on the Southern Gold sauce but ended up dipping in the Bourbon. My wife had the chopped steak (which I was surprised) and she really enjoyed it. It was grilled perfectly with the right amount of seasoning and char to it. Salads were huge portions too. Dinner rolls...I could have eaten just those and been fine.

Service was great. There was some confusion about about my order. And I’m waiting to see if my money is returned like the server, Brian, said. Otherwise, I’ll be charged twice for a meal that, while hot, fresh, and fast, was not very good. Brian was a great server though!
