Phat Phish is that neighborhood gem you might drive past if you don't know better--but once you try it, you'll keep coming back. Located in a plaza that stays busy thanks to the liquor store nearby, parking can be a little hectic during peak hours, but it's never been anything too stressful. The area might feel "give or take" to some, but personally, I've never felt unsafe or had any negative experiences when visiting. Now let's talk food--because that's what keeps me coming back! Everything is made fresh and HOT. I've never received a lukewarm or soggy order. You can tell they take pride in getting it right and getting it out quickly. I usually place my pickup orders through DoorDash, and it's always ready right on time. My absolute faves? The house fried rice and the shrimp fried rice. Unlike a lot of places that throw in baby shrimp as an afterthought, Fatfish gives you medium, full-sized shrimp that make the meal worth every bite. The wings are also a must--crispy, well-seasoned, and perfect every time. The menu is surprisingly big, with options for just about any craving: Philly cheesesteaks, crab rolls, burgers, steamed veggies, wings, and more. Whether you want something greasy and satisfying or a lighter plate, they've got you covered. read more

Phat Phish Café - Hot Spicy Steak Philly Sandwich - Seafood Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Them Thai chili wings man I can eat them for breakfast love this place and when I go by here I want the food... lol

Consistent, affordable, and filling. Can't praise the Phish enough, my only complaint is that they're not open later.

I'm not gone lie, this one of the top 3 hidden gems in the Atlanta area. I've been about 4 times and don't got no complaints. I'm actually bout to get in my car now and drive 50 minutes in traffic to go get it right now lol read more

The food is so tasteful and wish they had a location in New York City. Service is always great and pleasant. The ambiance is cool and bit small but I'm use to that being from New York those be the best spots to eat from. The veggie plate is my favor and juice off the hook , wings are great. read more

Good lil spot located in East Atlanta. Priced pretty good when picking up (not through delivery apps). Wings are a good size, and they aren't stingy with the fries. Service is OK 8/10. it's also pretty small inside so I always call im my order and then go pick it up when it's ready. over all 3.5 read more

I had the chicken teriyaki bowl and my husband had the shrimp teriyaki bowl. It was so fresh and tasty! Lots of chicken and shrimp... they didn't hold back! The veggies were so fresh and delicious and not over cooked. I would eat here any time and recommend that you try it! There is no dining in but take out only. That was perfect because we were staying at the Alpaca treehouse in the bamboo forest just down the road and we wanted to eat dinner at our Airbnb so we could get the full experience! read more

The BEST Blue cheese! They make the blue cheese sauce in house, rare for a strip mall wing spot. The wings range from delicious to good, some days just are not as good as others. Overall, the best wings I have found on the Southeast side! read more

I came back and didn't see any foolishness. You gotta grab that box of wings before the street lights come on. read more

Okay, I'll finally admit it. I eat at Phat Phish. Not often, but enough to write a solid review. I usually order thai chili flavored wings but I've also had other flavors. I like that the wings are regular-sized (not jumbo..gross) and cooked crispy. I've had a burger here - not great but better than typical fast food. A friend has had their fried fish and he said that it was doable and he'd eat it again. The only thing I've eaten here that I'm not a fan of are the fries; they don't cook them hot or long enough so they are often limp and I'm a fan of crispy fries. Surprisingly, the food that I've had actually looks like the pictures they display. Winning! Service is fairly fast, but the girls they have working the register get on my nerves. They are not interested in being there AT ALL which explains why there is a different one every time I visit. It's all I can do not to roll my eyes when I have to place my order. While I'm not a regular at Phat Phish, it's a solid place and they are my go-to when I want something fast and don't want to drive too far. read more

Fried rice was good. Seafood - the batter on fried things is super salty. Too salty for my taste.

Nothing special. Just a neighborhood spot that sells fish, wings, fried rice. Nothing fancy.

Good service, with mandatory masks and all folks handling food and containers also wearing gloves. It's cheap and still better than what I expected. read more

I will never eat here again the lack of cleanses or washing hands is very disappointing. The cashier was also very rude and kept touching everything with out washing her hands.. I understand this family owned bussiness but I see why you all have 84 for health score smdh.... read more

For my 300th review, I figured I should review somewhere in my neighborhood. I am at Empire Package next door pretty regularly and have always regarded Phat Phish skeptically. My SO was the one who finally bit the bullet and gave it a try. Thank goodness he did. We aren't very adventurous in our wing choices. We get half buffalo hot and half lemon pepper. The lemon pepper wings here are delicious, better than any of the other wing joints we've tried in our area. The buffalo wings are fries are also solid but not standout like the lemon pepper. Service is fine. Nothing outstanding but I've never had any issues. The employees are polite and competent. My SO has come home from here complaining about very slow service but it seems to be occasional and not their standard operating procedure. We'll continue to frequent despite off days. It's pretty great to have a wing spot and beer spot right next door to each other. read more

I went to Phat Phish and was overcharged for the sorriest Philly cheesesteak I've ever had. I had the wing and sandwich combo, the wings were small, but tasty. I've patronized this establishment for the first and last time! read more

TRY THIS PLACE! Some of the best wings in Atlanta hands down!!! You can tell they use all natural chicken wings because they are just the right size, not oversized like some places you see. They have an endless selection of flavors to choose from (it's hard to go wrong), but my favorite combo is lemon pepper and hot buffalo!! ALSO TRY THE CHEESESTEAKS OH MY LAWD. The staff is friendly and gets out your food quickly, seriously try this place you won't regret it!! read more

Love their wings and fried fish. This place never disappoints and I would highly recommend if you're looking for an affordable place to order takeout! read more

Third time here and have to say that each time the food has been cooked to order, fresh tasting and really satisfying. The prices are reasonable and the selection is pretty good. Just be ready to smell like grease after you leave. Which really isn't a bad trade off for the food you get. I really like the catfish combo. Unlike many places the fish is lightly breaded so you can enjoy the fish. Never greasy and always tender. I skip all the sauces and just go for some hot sauce. Fries are like the old school cafeteria fries so no complaint there because these are crispy and tender. Coleslaw is meh but that's just a filler anyways. Chicken fingers are nicely fried with all white meat showing. read more

One of the worst wing place I'd gone. Me and my girl gone there to order take out. She ordered the Shrimps and I ordered the Wings. When we got our food and started driving home, we open the box because we were really hungry. The wings I got were the smallest wings I'd ever seen, and it doesn't look like they toss in the flavor I'd ask for. The wings were less than 2 inch and skinny with barely any meet. My girl shrimp from a glance look pretty okay size, but once my girl removed the breading, there 3 times of breading than the shrimp. They just batter the shrimp with so much breading to make it look decent size. We regret coming to this place and we will never going there again! read more

Had the honey mild wings pretty yummy.. not very spicy i would honey hot next time good customer service

I was looking for a "fast food" option for Fat Tuesday this year! Phat Phish Cafe hit the spot. It was not quite fast, but I was able to order online and pick it up with a few minutes. Upon arrival, the food was ready (took about 20 minutes) and was hot! The shrimp fried rice was FIRE. I loved it. It can definitely hold it's own against many of the Chinese restaurants in town. I wasn't a wholly supportive fan of the wings, but the fried fish was fantastic! Definitely a come-back location for some "fast & fried" food! read more

Everything I've had here is so good I'm going to stop eating any other food and only eat here. Chicken gyro wrap, turkey burger, fried catfish, grilled chicken salad. read more

If you're ever craving wings, a philly cheese steak, or even fried rice you should definetly stop by here. I love their lemon pepper and hot wings, they're my favorite--seasoned perfectly! They have a pretty big selection on their menu, so you can always try something new every time you visit. Go check them out! #supportlocalbusinesses read more

Amazing take out wings, fries, fried rice and more! This has been my go-to during this pandemic. Wings have great flavor, especially the lemon pepper! read more

Oh Sooo bad but OH SO GOOD! It's a little hole in the wall by my house. The food is good. The prices are cheap. What's not to like. If u live off flat shoals and ur headed home tired from work and don't feel like cooking, this is a pretty good option on a budget. And the portion sizes are pretty big so you'll probably have left overs for lunch the next day. It's a win win. read more

Phat Phish Café - Storefront. - Seafood Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Phat Phish is a clean, little hole the wall in the East Atlanta area at the intersection of Flat Shoals and Fayetteville (not village) that has some of the best fried fish I've had in a long time. I'm not a catfish fan, but this was off the chain y'all. That's the only thing I've eaten in the 2x I've been there and is the only reason I go. Nowhere to sit as it's a take out place. They have fried everything from skrimp (shrimp), chicken fingers, wings, fried chicken sandwich, have your fish as a sandwich, even gyro wraps, fried rice and Teriyaki bowl. Typical asian and fried food/soul food mash up. This area is gentrifying fast as even Charleston Pointe subdivision is selling in the mid $200's now. I think the next time I'm going to get fried okra. Where else can you go and get fried okra, a Teriyaki bowl and a fish sandwich. Sounds like the perfect munchie fix but they close at 10pm on weekends and 9pm during the week. And yes, you will smell like grease when you leave. I don't get the fries anymore because they use the frozen crinkle cut fries and if you don't eat them as soon as they pull out the fryer they become mushy. It is cheap takeout so surprised the people working there were really nice. read more

Phat Phish Café - Needed some #Fried #Fish on a #Friday. Phat Fish small locally owned hole in the wall wings fried fish fries Of course Chinese food - Seafood Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

This place is super fast! Every time I've ever ordered here, my food is up in minutes. The staff always friendly; the food is always fresh and tasty. Don't let the weird and poor name choice scare you off, like it almost did me. They offer a variety of food from seafood, shrimp, chicken wings, subs, sandwiches, gyros, and even different kinds of fried rice. They have awesome combo deals starting at just $6 for a lot of food and it also comes with a soda. They also deliver. Would recommend! read more

Phat Phish Café - Philly cheesesteak YUM! - Seafood Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Huge surprise tucked away in the most unlikely of places. Amazing neighborhood spot! I picked up the fried rice and Thai chili wings. I'm so glad I did not judge a book by its cover in giving this place a shot. read more

Phat Phish Café - Phat treat! Thai chili wings with the delicious chicken fried rice. - Seafood Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Fantastic food & great staff! Went to Philly last month and I can honestly say the cheesesteaks at Phat Phish are better! Don't get me STARTED on the wings!! Lemon pepper is where it's at! Can't go wrong with this place, definitely my go-to spot. read more

The catfish was soggy and had an overly fishy taste. Quality of food has went down tremendously!!!

This place SUCKS! THE KICKER IS THEY WON'T GIVE YOU A REFUND! I use to LOVE the catfish however something has changed. It now taste so fishy in a yuck way. The 1st time i thought it was just me but when my dtr & another family member (unknowing of how i now felt) said the same thing. I really felt it confirmed something changed. I tried it again because i use to live the place but my feelings are the same. It now sucks for catfish.On a good note & the reason i gave it 3 stars my other dtr still likes the chicken wings. read more

I didn't like my food. I ordered wings and fries and they messed up on it. How do you mess up on wings and fries? First off my wings were super small, and dry looking. Which is weird because I ordered lemon pepper teriyaki wings. Now if there's one thing I learned being out here it's that you Georgians love wings like us New Yorkers love Chinese food. So you have to get it right! I wouldn't care to go back unless somebody was paying for my food because I refuse to waste my money again. read more

Great location, good food, Horrible pathetic service!! If you want to kill 45min waiting for water cause you love fried fish this is your place! Been here twice in the last month both times our dining experience has been terrible. Waitstaff is completely oblivious. I worked in the restaurant business for ten years...have I never seen worse service. read more

This used to be my favorite quick fish spot. No more. I noticed they had a New menu. Also noticed terrible service, fish was freezer burnt, Fries were undercooked. I won't be back. Even JJ fish and chicken is better than This. read more

Nice local deli. I always get the chicken philly combo.... fast and fresh food! It's a neighborhood spot, great for take out.

For quick, easy wings, fried foods, sandwiches and more, Phat Phish is a great option. The prices are very reasonable, their wings are delicious and their fried rice food is surprisingly good. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area. read more

Tasty, affordable, and friendly service! It's like American Deli but waaaay better food. The fried rice is bomb. We've also had Thai chili wings, regular and spicy Philly, cheddar bacon fries, and Teriyaki veggies - all awesome. Basically everything we've had has been great, especially for the price! read more
