Stopped here for lunch based on Yelp reviews and it was very good. My wife had the scallops which she liked very much. I had the chicken salad sandwich on a croissant and there were identifiable chicken chunks in it. We also both had the baked sweet potato and highly recommend it - done just right. The waitress was very nice, the food came out promptly and the bathrooms are very clean. Worth stopping in if you're in the area. read more

VERY DISAPPOINTED. I seen the reviews and I guess I had high expectations. I ordered the Philly with no mushrooms or peppers. What got me was the lack of meat I was given. As you can see, I just pushed it to half of the bun because there is no use of eating all that bread with no meat. It wasn't bad, but it also wasn't great. The portion size was just ridiculous. At least they should have given me more fries or something. I can't see myself coming back unfortunately. read more

If I could do a negative 65 stars I would! Seriously run away food was tasteless no seasoning and then the Mac and cheese was dry and stale. Country fried steak was a soggy salisbury steak incognito. Then the manger said they ran out of chicken because it was after 2 and didn't even try to help the situation. But to be real it was so bad that we didn't want anything els at all. Waffle House is ocean prime compared to this joint. But I will say one thing the mimosa were good and made that experience tolerable. I should have known when I asked about the Jamaican chicken and they told me they put melted Kraft American single on top of a grilled chicken with a Jamaican sauce on top. I was blown away by the service and quality and seriously just don't eat here I warned you! Disgusting disgusting disgusting!!! read more

First time coming here, don't think I'll be back. The table was sticky. We were being bothered by flies the whole time. Full time job keeping them off our food. They were out of wings, chicken fingers, okra, fish and more. I was waiting for the waitress to come back and say "sorry, we are out of plates". I ended up just getting a burger. It came out with no lettuce, she wasn't sure why. Bet you can't guess why....yup, they were out of lettuce. And the burger was so dry. I just ate the fries. They did have a clean bathroom which I greatly appreciate. And the waitress was friendly and did keep our drinks constantly filled, so she got a nice tip. read more

Not a huge fan. Asked waitress what is her favorite and she said she does not eat there because she doesn't eat out but they sell a lot of everything. I ordered the pick 2 shrimp and flounder with mashed potatoes and salad. Onions were frozen on the salad and there was hair in the mashed potatoes. When I showed the waitress she asked what I wanted instead and I told her nothing. Sadly never seen a manager and no one ever even said sorry.... read more

this place doesn't even deserve one star!! I ran in to use the bathroom and when I asked where it was they said, "restroom is for customers only" and they were dead serious!!! I shouldn't have to pay to pee!! this is America!! come on! and they weren't even nice about it they were very short and rude so if you're on a roadtrip and have to pee don't stop at fat jacks read more

Stopped here before heading to hotel for overnight on our trek south. Saw good online ratings. It did not disappoint. They had Sam Adams Octberfest, which my husband enjoys. He had the half rack ribs and I had the shrimp platter. The coleslaw side was very good as were the smashed potatoes. The shrimp had a nice light coating. Ribs were tender and bbq sauce was sweet and tasty. Quick friendly service. Immediate seating. Plenty of seating available with several tables for larger groups. Worth checking out. read more

Went here while we were traveling through walterboro. It was the only place around by the interstate that was not "fast food" unfortunately the food tasted fast food / frozen and microwaved instead of cooked but had dinning prices and the serves was immature to say the least. Wouldn't recommend for out of towners. Seems like you have to know someone to get decent enough serves. But the food and flavors wasn't there for my family. read more

We had a nice lunch here! I liked my salmon Caesar salad. The portions are very generous. The patio was really nice to get some fresh air and enjoy. I would for sure recommend it to anyone, esp if you're visiting the EV chargers nearby. read more

Came in on a Friday about 4:00 wasn't to busy at all. Was seated about 3-4 minutes later a gentleman was seated next to us. Waitress came over got his drink order. We still haven't been acknowledged. She comes back takes his order still not acknowledged. Another couple seated they had their drink order take and then placed order. We still haven't been acknowledged. We asked hostess who was our waitress, she said she was busy and would be with us shortly... like really ? Waited another 6 minutes and got up to leave a different waitress wished us a good day, we said we weren't served, she asked hostess who sat those folks, the young lady spoke up and said I told them it would be a few minutes. Not to mention manager was standing there didn't say anything. What kind of place is this ? Do locals only get waited on ? Very disappointed Smh read more

After dawdling around various food options around Walterboro we stumbled upon Fat Jacks. What a great find! Food is good service is very on par and conscientious. This will definitely be a regular stop between Hilton head and home! Love the fishies at the door, kids were enchanted. Thanks for a great lunch!! read more

The owner of this restaurant is an absolute pig! Turns away customers that spend $100s each week and we're fiercely loyal for parking in the wrong spot. Well consider that money out of your bottom line. Why would anyone want to patronize a place where the owner sits at the door like a troll judging those who come for lunch? The food is mediocre at best and overpriced in comparison. We are locals and will be sure to pass our experience on to all of those we know. Anybody traveling through you're better off going to the Ruby Tuesdays at the next exit!! read more

Stopped for gas - Fat Jack's next door- took a chance. Very pleasantly surprised. Great food and excellent service. I had Chef's salad and my wife had chicken salad on a small house salad. Would be happy to stop again. read more

Service was incredible, and the food was SO GOOD! We're talking about your southern granny's food. I can't wait to go back!

Amazing family owned restaurant. Food is delicious. Jade was such a doll. Thank you.

The food was amazing. The service was great. We'd drive the two hours from home to come here again.

Hubs & I had a late lunch/early dinner here today. It was our 1st visit, but I'm sure it won't be our last. We enjoyed all of it. We were immediately greeted & seated, then as soon as we sat, our server, Liza, was there to take our drink order. I had a Caesar salad that was nicely cold & crisp with just the right amount of dressing & Parmesan. We had onion straws as a starter. These were thicker than I expected, but still flavorful. Even better, these weren't greasy at all. Sauce was also great. Hubs got the scallops with Cole slaw & smashed potatoes; I got chicken tenders with fries. Mine tasted more like calabash chicken, which is a favorite of mine.l & all of it was very well seasoned. Liza was awesome. She stayed right on top of everything without hovering. Our drinks never ran out & she was prompt with removing empty plates. We were really pleased with our meals & service. I'm sure we'll be returning in the near future. read more

I only had take out so I can only rate the food. The service for take away was quick and easy. The food was horrible. My shrimp and grits looked like sloop(see picture) and was uneatable, Turkey club was sub par while the chicken sandwich was acceptable. read more

Very disappointing! Brown lettuce Sautéed shrimp spicy but not noted on menu People were sitting outside on chilly night, and waitress was in and out. Constant blast of cold air was awful Did they tell us when they sat us that the door would be opening? NO Had been there previously, so expected better. We're done! read more

I got more than I expected here. We walk up and it doesn't seem like much, let alone a good steakhouse or a place that does steak. I can say the place is unique. It was quiet which for some places isn't the best but it's a small town and not near a major exit. They had Cointreau so I ordered that and a Diet Coke. Which was well mixed. I had the steak, and it was pretty awesome, this coming from someone who has looked up several ways to make the best steak and gets to taste try all that her husband attempts. Good all around, quaint and quiet and pretty unexpected. read more

Slow marginal service, marginal food especially for the price. Much better choices nearby

I received average service and the resturant offered what appeared to be a enjoyable experience. The overall feel of the establishment was nice. I ordered the fried flounder. This order came with a salad and hush puppies. I ordered the loaded smashed potato. The salad was average. The hush puppies and potatoes were excellent. That is where the good tastes ends. The fried flounder was served partially cooked and "mushy". After showing this to the server it was taken back and a new plate was shortly brought back out. The fish looked great. However the fish was still partially mushy and partially rubbery. The server came back to check and after seeing the same results offered no refund to the order. Won't eat there again. read more

I ate here while working in the area. We had the cheeseburger and the chicken salad croissant. It was ok, but not spectacular. Not a lot of flavor. The service was good and the waitress was attentive. I might eat here again if in the area,, but I don't enthusiastically endorse it. The patio area was a nice place to sit and eat . read more

I'm just passing through. I'm looking for a good place for dinner. Came across this place. Very good, clean, friendly staff.

I have eaten at this restaurant two times and both times we had good food and excellent service. Great family atmosphere and very clean!

Really great service and the food was delicious and moderately priced. Recommend this place for a fun time.

We stopped in to have a bite while traveling from the Blue Ridge Mountains on our way back home to Tampa and were pleasantly surprised with the food and service. We met the owner (Jack) while we were there and he was such a nice guy who clearly seemed to care about his guests experience. When your choices for food in this area are Ruby Tuesday, Waffle House, DQ etc... OR Fat Jacks, to me it's a no brainer! We will stop by here again the next time we are in the area! read more

Near 95. We had shrimp & grits and fried scallops and catfish. Food was better than expected. Place was clean and waitress was friendly read more

Came back to visit here back in my hometown. First time being able to sit down and eat. The food is reasonably priced and the staff is really nice and friendly. The restaurant was clean along with the bathrooms. Food came out right on time. Will visit again to be able to try more food. With the virus, they spread everybody out and sanitize everything. They give you paper menus. I love sweet tea, and they had it made just perfect. It wasn't too sweet or too bitter. Wasn't able to take pictures because the food was too good to stop eating. Fried okra was probably my favorite part. They actually cook them nice and crispy read more

A quick stop for dinner on our way to Charlotte, we found Fat Jack's. Driving from Ft. Lauderdale to Charlotte wanted a decent dinner before we stopped in Charlotte. About 3 hours south east of Charlotte Yelp and its reviewers gave Fat Jack's a very good review. They were right. We had the Shrimp Jammers for a starter and two burgers for dinner. Food was excellent the service was prompt. Fat Jack's was exactly what we were looking for read more

The waitress staff is okay, but one certain person thinks she runs it, which is a waitress! I think Mr Jack needs to get a handle on it! She even put something in my husband's drink! Have NOT been back and we want! It use to be a great place to go, but it has really gone downhill! read more

Good food prepared exactly as requested. We were traveling through the area and this is a good choice for something when you're not interested in fast food options in the area. Good service by Liza. read more

Great service. My fried catfish and grilled shrimp were fresh and cooked perfectly. No complaints here.

Go to I HOP!!!!! Wings had feathers and i ordered my sandwich without mushrooms and they were on their! Manager was arrogant! We are locals and decided to try it, We will not be back! read more

We saw this place off the highway and decided to give it a chance. I am glad we did. Service was fast, clean bathrooms, friendly waiters. A tad pricy but good portions. Would eat here again. read more

Ok. Nothing special. All the food seemed to be frozen and the price isn't accommodating to the quality. We won't be back.

My family stopped here as we were going through town. I will start by saying my waitress was very kind . I gave her my to go order ( my family and dog was in the car), I give her my money and then realize I was charged way more then I was supposed to be. When I ask the young lady for the receipt I relive I was charged $15 for 1 grilled chicken breast for my dog. After 20 mins of waiting (remember my family is still waiting in the car)I get my food. I look in the bag and my sons cheese sticks are missing. I'm a little irritated but hey at least I got our dinner so we can continue our trip when I open my meal, I got a ceaser salad with blackened chicken. My lettuce was so wilted and warm and my chicken was raw. Needless to say I threw it away and went over to zaxbys fast food. I will also add that my husbands fries were ice cold. Never Again!! read more

10/16/2020 Was looking for a casual place to eat as we were just passing thru Walterboro that night. Food: was good. We each had the chicken strips dinner which came with a salad & one side. We each had the caesar salad. My husband had the Jack's fries, nothing special, I had the smashed potatoes. The dinner came with 5 good size chicken strips. Location: the restaurant was located on an out parcel of a shopping center. We sat on the patio. It seems everyone with a noisy pickup truck went by that night. It was very distracting. Staff: The service was good. The trainee we had was very attentive. BUT everyone needed a lesson in proper mask wearing. Our waitress thought she needed to take hers down every time she talked to us. Most of the rest of the staff wore them on their chins. They did not practice social distancing among themselves after they removed their masks and congregated near the hostess station to talk. I would try Fat Jack's again after the Covid-19 vaccine has been made available . read more
