You won't feel like a stranger here, unless you sit on your hand and it falls asleep, and then you "rub your shoulder with said, asleep hand, and...", I digress! Food was, (well, IS) really good and the beer selection is also great, AKA, if you go fir a "GAME", two to three hours", they will split a large IPA order into TWO SEPARATE IPA'S, these folks will do.

I don't often love any kind of fried or battered shrimp but these were so good. I definitely want to come back!

First timer here! Came on a Saturday evening and there was about a 15 to 20 minute wait. It…read moreactually went pretty quick to be honest. We sat downstairs in a table, booth combo. Our waiter was pretty cool, although his name is escaping me now. We ordered a few appetizers, wings, steak taquitos, and the pretzel. We noshed on these before we ordered our meals of bison burger, and two single patty smash burgers. Not sure if it's because it was around 7:30/8 o'clock at night, but the food was not up to par according to the two that I was with, who frequent this place. The steak taquitos tasted a tad overdone, but still pretty good since it was the first time I've had them. The pretzel was really good, but the dipping sauces not so good. I still cannot figure out why one of them was a hot caramel sauce. I have never put caramel on my pretzel and it tasted like crap to be honest. The queso must've been the bottom of the pot because it was hard and kind of burnt tasting, so pretty disappointed in the pretzel choice. Our meals came and honest to God the Smashburger looked like a kids meal. This tiny burger plopped on a big white plate with onion rings, and the burger was not good. The bison burger did not have any of the sauces on it that it stated in the menu so he needed to ask for some love on the burger. So the waiter brought over a bunch of sauces. It's a shame because they talk about this place all the time and I really wanted to try it and it just wasn't up to par. I ended up taking my Smashburger home, and the next day I scraped the nasty sauce off it, added mayonnaise to the bun and an extra slice of cheese and it was actually pretty good. I definitely wanna come again because they talk about this place all the time and how good the food is. Maybe it was just the night we went.

Parking was a little rough and the lot was FULL, but I took that as a good sign I went around 2pm on a Wednesday and there was a nice mix of families, couples, etc. You can sit inside, at the bar, or outside in the sun or shade. I chose outside in the shade and it was quiet, relaxed, and really comfortable. I ordered the Dirty Bird and it was SO good. The chicken was crispy outside, juicy inside, not oily or dry. The coleslaw was fresh and crunchy, the fries were nicely seasoned, and it was a good amount of food. They happily put my pickles and hot honey on the side too. I asked for ginger ale and they offered ginger beer instead, which was a pleasant little surprise! The menu has a ton to choose from. I actually wished I had people with me so I could try more things And for my fellow IBS friends, the women's bathroom has TWO stalls. These are important details!!

We ordered the Brussels sprouts, and they weren't cooked very well. The Roadrunner grilled chicken sandwich had good-tasting chicken, but the mustard aioli was awful. We also asked for BBQ sauce on the side, but unfortunately, that didn't taste good either. The coleslaw was also missing something and wasn't very enjoyable. That said, the beer selection looked really good, especially if you're there mainly to have a beer and watch sports. I'd definitely come back for the atmosphere and sports, but the food needs some improvement. Also lots of seating

It seems odd to be leaving a 5-star review for a "bar," but every time I visit Fat Joe's it's such…read morea positive experience it's only fair to rate it as such. We visit at least once a month with friends from the nearby climbing gym, and always with our 6-year-old in tow who LOVES this place thanks to all the games there are to play. My favorite go-to menu item is the crunch wrap with carne asada - it's large so my husband and I usually split it. Their salsa is bomb, too (especially the green). We've also had some of their burgers, tacos, and our daughter always gets a personal pizza. The personal pizza scenario is the only thing I have beef with here - you get a 7" plain cheese pizza for $12, and you can add a max of 3 toppings which cost extra, so in the end our kid's food is more expensive than ours. Hey Fat Joe's - pleeeease considering adding a small pizza to the kid's menu and price it closer to the other $7 and $8 items!! The interior walls of Fat Joe's are decorated with art and murals of all the most important and beloved features of our city. The bartenders are friendly and efficient - drinks are poured/mixed and handed off quickly, and food arrives at your table shortly after. Bathrooms are always well-stocked and clean. Parking is pretty much limited to street parking and while it is limited, we've never had an issue finding a spot nearby. Finding solid family-friendly spots can be in short supply, but Fat Joe's hits all my criteria and remains one of our favorite spots to eat and spend time together.

Their burgers were great! 3 of us had burgers, one had a turkey burger, one of us had carnitas tacos. Those burgers were big and I would say homemade.

We cannot wait to take our other friends and try more delicious food! You do not find many places with food so good. Can't wait till try more items! I call my husband Wimpy because he is a burger connoisseur and he said he thinks it was in the top 10 of burgers he has had in his lifetime and he has had some good ones!

Headed there and greeted by a nice gentleman who sat us right away. Service was good! However foods weren't as good their choices didn't include what we had in mind but we decided to give it a try. We ordered deviled eggs for appetizer, which is actually the best among all our orders. Although the bacon bits were rubbery, we liked how the eggs were "deviled"; fish and chips didn't make the cut either. Fish was heavily battered so imagine how small the fish portion came out. The chips aren't chips but crisscut fries that are dry. Teres Major steak was perfectly cooked medium rare, good quality of course, but even with the chimichurri sauce, it still didn't taste good. It was a disappointment so I would say we were full but not satisfied.

I instantly set a reservation (didn't really need it) and we arrived around 4pm on a Tuesday and sat on the patio. Happy hour is daily from 4-6pm and if you sit on the recently renovated patio, drinks are 50% off. I ordered the Ribeye as my birthday entree and we also ordered the Fried Zucchini ($7), Popcorn Chicken ($9), Guajillo Braised Pork Shoulder ($21) and several cocktails ($7 each during HH). Everything was great honestly. No complaints. My wife REALLY loved the braised pork shoulder. My steak was excellent and even though it was free, $32 for a ribeye is the lowest you'll find anywhere. It was nice having not having to fight for a seat. Enjoying a cocktail on the patio in perfect weather is something everyone should try.

The rest of his male friends who just told us that we could sit there just stared like they didn't just give us permission to sit there. My girlfriend and I got up from our shared seat and decided to leave. It was a very unpleasant experience, not to mention the bartender never even said hello.
