Highly recommend this local eatery! Saw all the great reviews on Yelp and decided to try it. Just had lunch there with my husband and son. All of our food was excellent. Great service and it is very clear the chef loves his craft. The brisket was the best I've ever tasted! Cant wait to come back to try the catfish read more

Food was good but the waitress was a ditz!! My wife ordered her food and side and then after wife ordered side, the waitress asked what side my wife wanted after taking my order. Service needs improvement. read more

So first of all don't let the parking lot or general area fool you. The staff is extremely friendly and the place is immaculate. The coleslaw and cabbage are fantastic. Unfortunately they were out of collard greens. We ordered fried chicken livers for an appetizer and my wife got the rosemary rubbed rib sandwich and I ordered the brisket dinner and it was perfect The ribs are a sandwich but it's a slab of ribs on bread. Everything was very good. Well worth the side trip while traveling through. read more

Came here HUNGRY after spending 4 hours on the road. We had tried to eat at another spot nearby but forgot about the holiday; perhaps it was a blessing in disguise because Phat Daddy's was Delicious! The area nearby and the restaurant itself is a lil rundown, but don't let that scare you. The staff were incredibly friendly and it felt like we were having dinner at a family cookout. Food came out in less than 5 minutes, which was great for our hungry stomachs. I went with the pulled pork sandwich (made from pork butt!!) and oh my lord it was so tender!! It just pulled apart so easily and was nice and sweet with that sauce. Fries had a nice Cajun seasoning and had the right amount of crispiness. I'm sad that we were only passing through cuz I'd love to come back and try some more of their food! This place is definitely worth checking out, and if you're local I'm so jealous! read more

Phat Daddy's on da Tracks - Pulled Pork Sandwich w/ Fries - American Near Me - Charleston, West Virginia

Friendly staff! We had breakfast outside and played a bunch of games. We had a great experience and Ebony offered us their home made hot sauce to take home. Place is a hidden gem for sure! From out of town; otherwise I'd be back in a heartbeat. They also host a flea market on the property on saturdays! read more

Service is great and I've yet to get anything I didn't like. Try the catfish. Yelp says the review needs to be 85 characters long.

Stopped in the location today grab some lunch for the office . Brisket With two side , and a pulled pork sandwich with fries. So the Brisket - is sliced really thin . This melts in your mouth , was vey good . The cabbage was FIRE and greens were good . Portion size of the brisket was an issue for me . I did steal a couple fries from the other platter . Those were nice thick cut fry !! It's a good place to eat , read more

The food was ok, portions small, overpriced. We got the shrimp bowl which was pretty tasty, maybe a little too salty. We also got the chopped cheese which barely had any veggies mixed in and it came with veggie straws which is a weird side order. All of that was over 40 w tip and tax. read more

Stopped for lunch on the way to Kentucky. Ebony was friendly and welcoming. I got the pulled pork bowl and it was sooo good!!! I had dinner with friends at a fancy place in Ky, and honestly, the food was way better at Phat Daddy's! read more

Wow!! The food, prices and service were great! We were greeted in the parking lot by a gentleman who saw we had our dogs with us. He was amazing. He told us we could go in the other side of the building and bring our dogs. It was outdoor seating and was perfect for our dogs and little girl to expend some energy which was much needed as we were on a 12 hour trip home. The ribs, Phat Dog (hot dog w/ chili cheese), even the kids pizza and all the sides were great. Based on the hospitality alone I would go back but combined with the great food we will keep this on our list to stop back whenever passing through. Thank you for a great experience. read more

Everything about this place is amazing! The owner, the cook, the FOOD. You can not pick anything on the menu that isn't 10/10 amazing. Best chicken livers in the charleston area. Don't sleep on this. You will thank me. read more

The food was great, just what i needed after the very long car ride i was on. Everything was fresh and very delicious. We got there an hour before closing and the staff there were still very nice and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Overall very good service and super delicious food!!! read more

I found this hidden little gem while passing through Charleston, WV. Hardly bigger than a food truck and tucked away off the beaten path next to some railroad tracks, I wasn't sure what to think. I looked at the menu and saw "Rosemary Ribs". I love rosemary and hadn't heard of it cooked into ribs, I was stunned! Oh dear lord, those fall off the bone ribs were incredible! Paired with delicious onion rings and amazing baked beans, I was sucker punched. I haven't had that fantastic of a meal in a long time. Four hours from my home in North Carolina, I would seriously consider the drive just to have lunch here again. If you're ever passing through Charleston, WV, make sure you follow your GPS to Phat Daddy's on the Tracks. It's not far off of the interstates and more than well worth the detour!!! read more

Incredible service, killer food. Lovely people, it was an awesome place to try. Had a lot of life and great food.

Really good service and tasty food. Love the hotdogs and fresh cut fries. ask for a side of their homemade slaw! Everything we have tried here is extremely fresh tasting and clearly made with love :) really cool spot, can't wait to come here and eat on the patio when it warms up! read more

Excellent food, it's the small places like this that I really enjoy. Truly a place that is a must stop and try if never been.

This is a great restaurant! We had the brisket and it was full of great smoky flavor. And the slaw was delicious. The restaurant is very clean and staff was kind and helpful. We also had our dog with us and they have a great fenced-in outdoor seating area where she could run around a bit. We are traveling thru Charleston but we will stop again next time in town. read more

The brisket was amazingly delicious and the service was equally as great. The restaurant has recently recently been remodeled inside and looks fantastic. read more

I can't comment on the quality of the food as I've never been able to eat here. Stopped by once at the old location and they were closing up (earlier than what was advertised). Tried another time and they weren't open. Tried again Friday night, website says open until 9. Called to confirm girl said yes they are open until 9. Placed an online order at 8:20 for 2 dinners (over $40), received a confirmation text, then a minute later got a text saying my order was cancelled (after the money was charged to me). I called and the lady answered and said nothing but "We are closed". I told her the situation and that I had called and she said who told you that and named someone, I have no idea who told me that. She said they are open until 9 but stop taking orders at 8. This should have been specified on their website. Not sure I will attempt again. I love trying new places and supporting small businesses but this doesn't seem to be in the cards, and I'm still waiting on my refund as well (says will take 3 days) :( read more
