    Chicken Tenders
    Brian C.

    Had a chance to finally try Fat Ronnie's in Oak Bluffs. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Went in on a rainy day and it was quite crowded from people catching shelter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You order your food and when they call your number, you go up to choose your toppings for your burger. Ordered a well done Fat Ronnie's burger with cheddar, order of chicken fingers, chicken wings, fries and onion rings. The best thing IMO was the burger and chicken fingers. The burger was cook well as requested, good quality and had great flavor. The chicken fingers looked dark like they were overcooked but think that's just the seasoning they use. They were juicy and nice sized. Onion rings and fries were just OK. Biggest disappointment was the chicken wings. Got the Plain fried ones and they had ZERO seasoning. Very bland and would not get again. Overall, good experience here and would definitely go back for a burger and the chicken tenders.

    There were long lines but it moves very fast. I enjoyed my burger however I didn't care about the original fries. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is seating inside you just have to be quick to get a seat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Daughter read about this before our visit and stopped by. We were not disappointed. These were the best burgers and my goodness the fries were amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Fat Ronnie's is on the shopping strip but it wax sit down area inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had fun with the lady at the counter filling orders. We had laughs. Great crew there there were photos on all generations that owned the shop as well as shop name changes.

    Menu

    Had the sweet potato veggie burger that was very good and was a huge patty. Also the turkey burger was a good sandwich as well. The only disappointment was the chicken finger sub, flavor was bland and too oily-1 star removed

    The line starts to the left of the "Fat Ronnie's" sign

    Fat Ronnie's is slap ya mama good. For my first visit, I went because my friends raved about this place, and they weren't lying. I love the turkey burger and the fries are good, you get a good amount of food too. It's busy but they move the line. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a smaller spot so it gets crowded fast.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For my 2nd visit, I took a trip from PVD just to get a turkey burger & fries. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Family friendly and good vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I was visiting Martha's Vineyard for my gfs birthday and stopped at Fat Ronnie's for dinner. Small spot on the strip. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice inside and looks clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service when ordering was good. There was a line but it went quickly. The burger was seasoned so nicely and you can choose your cheese, it doesn't have to be american which I was happy about. I always prefer cheddar. The meat was good quality too. They have a good selection of sides and overall food its not just a burger joint. My dear friend got the lobster roll and enjoy it! We had a group of us and everyone was happy. Prices for the burger and sides were fair! Overall, I really liked this place and would definitely recommend it and come back.

    Very popular for good reason

    Great hamburger. They had my favorite burger Grilled portobello,onions with Swiss cheese. What puts this as number one is the ability to select from fixing bar. [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you rode the 13 bus here the crowded joint is no problem.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service is fast so dive in for all the toppings you want on your burger

    Bacon & Cheddar Burger

    Came for lunch. Well positioned working circuit Ave near everything. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Had a pretty good playlist going while waiting for food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Foods made fresh and there's a little wait but the burgers worth it. The fries were perfectly crispy. The Lobster Roll was okay - not the best I've had but also not the worst. Perhaps more burger on the lobster would have helped. Really burger that I'd recomend thoo

    Walking in, it looks unassuming- similar to a fast food joint but the food is so much better. Service could have been better, it was our first time there and the staff seemed annoyed we didn't know how it worked. The woman at the register seemed like she was in a rush to get our order in. The food made up for the service- burgers are huge, they don't ask how you want your burger cooked though, mine was well done but still juicy. They have a toppings bar that you can choose from after your burger is ready- don't ask before.. they get annoyed, oops! Soda fountain is self serving, utensils are plastic. Not a lot of seating inside so maybe get it to go and eat at the beach. If I'm in the area I'll be back- just for the food- not the service

    Perfect for a quick on the go meal. Not a sit down type of lunch/dinner place, but served its purpose.

Salmon ceviche and drinks (mock and real) were solid and entrees were spectacular. The cod dish on the menu with whipped potatoes is a must have. The new location not as quaint as old house but it's bigger and in the pitch it still has the homey feel. A must stop for us each year on the vineyard.

    This isn't pretty, however the wait staff and manager handled it beautifully…read more Immediately upon entering you'll realize, it's LOUD. But hey, you're on Circuit Ave in Oak Bluffs. The next thing you'll notice is that the staff is very friendly and really trying to manage the chaos that is being caused by a chaotic kitchen. We were seated directly in-front of the kitchen, so we saw everything: - two or three wait staff anxiously waiting for orders in front of the service station (pick-up) area; - a chef continually looking at an inappropriate movie that was playing on a screen that was oddly positioned where the kitchen staff could view it (WHY) - a kitchen staff that was either doing nothing or working frantically - this is an indication of very poor management; - mediocre appetizers but passable - the entrées were ridiculously poor. I'll only describe mine to save time, but trust each of four were failures. The nerve to send to the table a beautiful piece of blue fin tuna that smelled like the gas used by a small propane gun, that had been partially burned - like on 1/2 of the fish. This shows zero respect for this beautiful creature or the people who ordered it. The lobster risotto that was beneath the fish was cold, lacked any flavor of lobster, and looked as though it had been thrown on the plate from across the room, and then to have the nerve to charge $60 + dollars is ridiculous. We of course requested to speak with the manager, who immediately came to our table, empathized and apologized, we felt heard. He then comped our entire meal which was very generous and appreciated. The chef then came over to apologize, and stated, "I'm so sorry, we dropped a pan and that threw everything off". WHAT? Buddy, we sat there and watched the chaos in your kitchen. The problemS, are not the result of a dropped pan. Apology appreciated, lame excuse was unnecessary and again demonstrated a lack of respect or intelligence. I may return alone, just to see if anything has changed or what show is on the TV.

I mentioned that I had no idea what a clam belly was in line, and everyone around me started trying to explain it. A few moments later, the manager (or owner) walked out with a giant clam belly for me to see and even offered me a sample lol. My goodness...it was everything I could ask for in seafood. The rich, briny umami flavor hit instantly and reminded me exactly why my cholesterol is so high lol. We ordered a quart of fried clam bellies, had some of the best scallops I've ever eaten, along with a lobster roll that was absolutely loaded with lobster meat, so much that it was falling out the sides. The clam chowder was okay, but everything else tasted super fresh. The staff mentioned that much of the seafood had been caught earlier that morning. One thing to keep in mind is that outdoor seating can be limited, so if you're visiting with a larger group and want to sit together, you may have to wait a bit. Other than that, this place is an absolute must visit for seafood lovers.
