I've been DoorDashing the Encino location since the pandemic - so I was very excited to know Fat Sal's was coming to Studio City, just two miles from me. It took quite a while to get there but now it's there. It's in the same little strip mall as CPK and Green Apple Bistro, where Jamba Juice used to be. I had no idea that it was finally there until I lunched at CPK yesterday. But good to know that's where my DoorDash orders are coming from now. At this new location, thus far I've had several Philly cheesesteak sandwiches - always fresh and good and just the right size. I've had the Italiano several times and it, too, is always great and just the right size. Then last night I had for the first time the double smash burger and some onion rings. The latter were really good, although I should not eat onion rings that late at night - the double smash was great and I'll be ordering that again. I have an Italiano on its way to me as I write this. So, welcome to Studio City Fat Sal's. You're a very happy addition. read more

I finally got a chance to try this fairly new opened Fat Sal's. This place used to be called Jamba Juice. I walked in around noon and really wanted to try their food. I got myself a Grilled Chicken Cesar Salad & an Impossible burger. Nothing to drink and no fries. They have a lot of options to choose from: Sandwiches, burgers, tater tots, fries, drinks: milkshakes,cold & hot, salads and wraps. Service by Mason was AWESOME! He took my order and the order came out fast & quick. My food was very delicious and fresh. Restaurant was clean, and it is not a big place. Interior was pretty dope, colorful, and upbeat. They were playing great music overhead and I would definitely return to try other options from their extensive menu. Sandwiches were HUGE!! Saw 2 people eating and wanted to take a bite:-) they said no. Underground validated parking for 90 minutes free. Located where California Pizza Kitchen and Green Apple Chinese Restaurants are. read more

I have yet to go to Fat Sal's for their regular menu. I have only gone for their collaborations. I loved the Coming to America collab when they turned into Mc Dowels. The food was amazing! This time we went for the Rickmas collab. Honestly the smash burger with pickles, fried pickles and pickled flavored ketchup was perfect. The Fat Rickmas was packed with flavor and their Fat Cookie was mind blowing. My only issue is that their Philly Cheesesteak fries weren't tossed with cheese. Once you got past the top layer they were just fries. We will be back because I want tha Fat Bahn Mi! read more

Working nearby and stopped here for lunch. Everything was really good. I loved the interior. Colorful. Vibrant. I had the grilled chicken Cesar salad. The grilled chicken was spiced and grilled nicely. Very tasty. And a lot of food. My work partner had the Fat Bodega sandwich. He loved it and it looked really good. I forgot to take photos. DOH! Place was clean, service was awesome, and Mason was great. read more

Trying Fat Sal's for the time. I ordered the Bodacious Beef Dip (thinly sliced ribeye steak, melted provolone, truffled onions & mushrooms, horseradish aioli, with a side of gravy). All the flavors are delicious and worked well together. The gravy is a bit of a disappointment, and does not compliment the sandwich. It reminded me of Heinz beef gravy, from a jar. It might be different if they served it with Au jus. I also ordered the Italiano (Ham, salami, pepperoni, provolone, sweet and hot peppers). This was not quite as big and tasty as I was expecting. I love a really good Italian (cold-cut) combo, and the nice guy behind the counter insisted that this was the celebrated cold sandwich on the menu. While it was good, it was not as loaded and hearty as I've had at many other locations. Next time back, I will get the Beef Dip again, but I will pass on the Italiano. Fat Sal's is also known for their shakes and loaded fries. I prefer sandwiches, so that will be my focus, moving forward. Overall, the service is very friendly and helpful, and the late night hours (1:30am) makes Fat Sal's an ideal spot. read more

We finally went to a Fat Sal's and we weren't disappointed. i loved the fact that they have several vegan and vegetarian options. I got the impossible smash burger with poutine and my son had the burger with fries, while my daughter had chicken strips and gator tots. The food was great and came out pretty quickly. The restaurant has seating inside but it is on the smaller side for sure. The staff was very nice and helped with any questions we had. Can't wait to go back! read more

03/09/2025 Soft Opening for friends and family. I got to meet Sal himself and he told me about a few of the signature sandwiches. Drinks are included in the famous signature sandwiches as I ordered the Banh Mi sandwich. Seasoned fries are definitely a tall order too. Comes with a few packets of ketchup. I like BBQ so I asked for BBQ sauce as someone asked me how is everything. It's a small place packed with a lot of people tonight. Lots of friends & family here to support Sal. I think I saw a few celebrities, not big names but I do recognize them. read more

I first discovered Fat Sal's years ago when I drove past their Encino location and later noticed they had opened at Topanga Social. I always intended to try them, but when I heard they were opening in Studio City, I knew it was finally time! Fat Sal's prides itself on delivering "an experience you'll want to be a part of"--as their website puts it. They're known for guilty pleasure sandwiches and sides, but they also offer salads and wraps (for those looking to balance things out). Co-founder Sal Capek describes their menu as "unique and exciting combinations and flavor profiles that result in mouthwatering, over-the-top culinary creations." Since I'm picky about sandwiches and burgers, I was happy to see that any hero (aka sandwich) can be made as a whole wheat wrap or on a bed of lettuce. I went for the Honey BBQ Chicken Hero as a wrap, which came loaded with grilled marinated chicken breast, grilled onions, and honey BBQ sauce--plus, I added avocado. But let's talk about the Fat Shakes. These spoon-in shakes are next level--I couldn't resist and tired two different shakes: #2 Shake: Coffee ice cream, shaved dark chocolate, and smashed pretzels. Like a specialty Frappe. #6 Vegan Shake: Vanilla cashew milk "ice cream," peanut butter, Oreos, "whipped cream," and chocolate syrup. I added Marshmallow Fluff to it also. Service was great and while it is a smaller location than most and can be a little difficult to find seating, they do have some outside or you can do takeaway. Parking Tip: Park in residential on the other side of the street or in one of the lots off of Ventura Blvd. read more

I had always wanted to try Fat Sal's, and finally had the chance to get a group of friends to dine in. Food portion was enormous for the price we paid. We had our sandwiches cut into pieces to we can share and try out other entrees. Everything we ordered was pretty tasty, and beyond my expectations. I love how there are fries in my sandwich. Fat Sal- Ribeye was thinly sliced, mozorella cheese was delicious and paired well with the garlic sauce. Fat Texas- I can taste the pastrami, I liked this better than the Fat Sal's actually, it tasted more bold than Fat Sal's. Bacon Cheeseburger Fries- Wow, if I ate this first , I wouldnt have ordered the sandwich. This was a full meal, and super delicious. Chili Cheese Fries- The chili cheese fries was phenomenal. West Coast Burger- This west coast burger was interesting, it's not an ordinary burger, this burger sets the bar above any other burgers. After dining at Fat Sal's, I need to just walk home to kill the calories but well worth every calorie. read more

I don't eat a lot of sandwiches, but when I'm in the mood for one, I stop by Fat Sal's. The sandwiches are huge. I usually just split one with my husband. My go-tos are the Fat Sal and the Fat Banh Mi. Also a fan of their double smash burger and seasoned fries. The staff is always friendly, and the food is super consistent. Great spot when you're craving something indulgent. read more

Awesome food for the late night munchies. Got the Philly cheesesteak and the fat buffalo and both sandwiches were so good and filling. Highly recommend stopping here at least once! read more

If you're hungry and bold enough to handle the craziest, most over-the-top sandwiches in L.A., Fat Sal's is the place to be. The portions are massive, the flavors are wild, and every bite is worth the calories. Whether you're grabbing a Fat Texas, Fat Jerry, or one of their loaded fries, you're in for a serious food adventure. The staff is chill, the vibe is loud and fun, and it's open late -- perfect for post-work, post-party, or straight-up cheat day cravings. They don't just make sandwiches; they make experiences. You haven't truly lived until you've tried stuffing mozzarella sticks, chicken fingers, and fries into a hero roll and calling it dinner. Trust me -- Fat Sal's delivers on its name and its hype. read more

Second time here, got the Fat Cug sandwich and it was exactly what I was craving without even knowing it! The combo of mozzarella sticks, truffle fries, and that delicious vodka sauce was perfection -- plus the crispy tater tots on the side hit the spot. My friend got their butter chicken cheesesteak collab and it was super creamy, flavorful, and cheesy. Cool, laid-back vibe, very clean, and excellent customer service. Can't wait to come back! read more

It was still warm when DoorDash delivered it! This was my first time to try the Philadelphia cheesesteak sandwich. If I try it again, I'll have to order extra cheese because it didn't have enough for my taste. The onion rings were out of this world delicious! 1/26/26 read more

Ordered the Italian cold cuts sub for which I had a strong craving tonight. The ingredients were so paltry that all one really tasted was tomatoes and vinaigrette. Two pics below show how they show it and what I ended up with. read more

First time ordering from Fat Sal's. I stumbled upon it while searching for food on my way home from the dog park. Ordering online was a breeze (though quite pricey, as usual). Finding parking was a bit of a challenge. I ended up parking at the Wells Fargo's parking lot and just walking over. But that's not their fault; it's just bad structure planning. Upon entering, I was the only customer in the entire restaurant. I approached the counter, and the employee asked what I needed. I informed him that I had a pickup order, and he confirmed it. He then let me know that my shake was almost ready. Curious about the menu, I decided to check it out. I was a bit disappointed that I hadn't ordered a more unique sandwich. They had a lot of really appealing options. I opted for the Philly cheese steak since it was the most popular choice online. It took a few minutes to receive my order. When I got it, the guy made sure to mention that there was straw inside the bag. Cool I thought, won't have to grab one on my way out then. I made it to my truck and was glad I had decided to try some of the fries. Unfortunately, there wasn't any straw in the bag, as the employee had mentioned. And there weren't even napkins! I was relieved that I had noticed before I got back on the freeway, because that would have been a very unpleasant ride home since my shake would have melted and the food would have become cold by then. I had to go back in and retrieve both items. I can understand that mistakes can happen when a restaurant is busy, and things can get overlooked. Everyone is human. But to be the only customer in the entire store and still have this happen? It's a bit unacceptable, in my opinion. I hope that the food is at least decent to salvage this sour taste I already have. I'll have to wait and see read more

The place has really good sandwiches. I think anyone can find something they would like from the menu.

Fresh, high quality and consistently good sandwiches delivered incredibly fast. And, they're open late!

If you like carbs on carbs this place is for you. I tried a Fat Jerry, the bites touching the meat had good taste and flavor. The other bites were bread, fries and other breading ingredients. I would never spend another $20 on this sandwich. These sandwiches are only good if you love your carbs. I threw almost 1/3 of it away. read more

Great customer service! The lady ringing me up at the front counter was very helpful and told me about a few items on the menu. I ended up getting a Fat Bodega and Buffalo chicken Cheese fries. I finished off the meal with a salted caramel shake which may be one of the best things I've ever had. Everything was served quickly and to perfection. Definitely going back! read more

So bomb. The true American experience for food. This is gluttonous heaven. Service is great.

Went back to Fat Sal's in Studio City and again I left happy, food is amazing, big portions, the place is always clean and the staff is great! The manager is always so nice and friendly and Tre recommended some of the most popular items and some of his personal favorites. I went with the Fat Texas and boy was I happy!! I'll definitely be back!! read more

The food was GREAT but what was more important was the OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE I received from Zanne. It was my first time eating at Fat Sals and Zanne helped me with the menu and my food selection. I am a business owner and I know and understand the value of a GREAT person and hard worker. So please when appropriate give her a raise, 401K and key employee insurance policy. Don't let her get away from you. Good employees are hard to find. read more

I was really excited about this place, some of their sandwiches sounded amazing. I was sadly disappointed. The first time I got a $20 sub style sandwich, it was half the size it looked in the picture. And when they cram all that stuff on their, there is no specific flavor to any of it. Like you cant taste any of the individual items, its just this hodgepodge of odd taste. So I tried a burger the next time. All of their burgers are doubles, so I went with the basic double. Looked huge in the picture. The patties they use are thin and cheap, its like chewing on a charcoal brucett. Its also very small, like McDonald's small. Nothing fat about fat sals. read more

OMG the food!!! This place NEEDS to open more locations!!! I got the Fat Banh Mi-Ki and it was probably the best thing I put in my mouth today!!! Then for something sweet, I got the Samoa Shake and it did not disappoint. Heaven in a cup. The perfect combination of a milkshake and Samoa Girl Scout cookies. I almost cried it was so good!!! I WISH this place was in San Jose, CA!!! Can I give more than 5 stars?! read more

Great new location the interior is really nice and super clean !!! Best Cheesesteak in Los Angeles!!!!

Food was terrible and below than average unfortunately so we won't be coming back. Bummer!

Worse customer service ever. Employees should take some customer service lessons from the encino location .

Worst food i've ever had. They soaked my double smash burger in Mustard it was inedible. Wasted $26 dollars. They couldn't even make fresh fries. They Re heated old fries that had been sitting there. I've been working in kitchens my whole life so i can tell when my food isn't fresh. Avoid this spot read more

Great to have in Studio City! Really neat atmosphere, varied menu of sandwiches that are top notch, and friendly service!

Sandwich was soggy and tasteless. No mayo or mustard or even olive oil on the Italiano. Bread was mush. The falafel sandwich was cold with old cold hard fries in it. Tried to call and was on hold for 15 minutes until I gave up. There are two other high end sub sandwich places within 3 blocks and those are much better. read more

The sandwichs are next level! My hands down favorite is the classic Italian sub. The meats are fresh, the cheese is rich, and the hoagie roll is crusty on the outside and wonderfully soft on the inside. I have only done takeout, but it's one of my go to places for takeout. read more

The fat hot chicken is the best thing I've ever had. The servers were really kind too.

After patiently waiting for Fat Sal's to open their new location near our house, I finally got my chance to try the food and BOY was I disappointed. My mom got an Italian sub and really unexceptional. I recently had a great one at Ghost Sando downtown and it was far far better. Wimpy ingredients and so-so bread. However, it was far better than my veggie wrap. If you're going to charge $16 for a sandwich, I really expect the ingredients to be fresh. The chopped lettuce was ALL RUSTY. That's a NO-NO! And the veggie "burger" was flavorless. Barely any dressing, and probably the wrong kind of dressing in the first place. Fries not fresh either. Fortunately, we have Ggiata's in the neighborhood now and even Uncle Paulies. Seems like Sal put more thought into decor than their recipes. read more
