This is a little gem. Took my family of 5 adults on a whim on a Wednesday and they sat us in a lovely round front booth. Our waiter was very attentive despite being busy. The food was delicious and very plentiful, with great appetizers, unusual choices along with crowd pleasers. I can't wait to 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.

Definitely late to the party on Phat Cats Bistro. Excellent experience. Sat at the bar and Dean took care of us...what a nice guy. Started with martinis, one black and blue and one Grey Goose. Baked Blues as an app, really solid blue cheese flavor and nice crostini - perfect portion for 2. Next a couple spinach salads which had great pear based flavors and the small was a nice portion. App and salads were excellent overall. We had one grilled tenderloin special which was cooked perfectly MR with nice veg and really solid mash. Super tender steak and overall really solid dish. The other meal was the creole seafood stew which was recommended by Dean and what a recommendation. Absolutely a go to dish in my opinion. Great kick with a ton of seafood and sausage. We finished with a piece of homemade carrot cake and it was awesome. Huge portion. Overall, why I waited so long to come to this spot. Definitely will return soon!

first off, I couldn't stop eating the bread and the herb butter! we started off with oysters, mussels and calamari, the husband and I love oysters and these have been better than some of the "best" in New York.. I got the beef tenderloin special, it was delicious, especially the mashed potatoes. as far as I know, everyone else's order was great: chowdah, swordfish, burger and all the drinks.
