For me, the meats just missed the mark. I had the pulled pork, which really just felt dry and unseasoned pork, loosely pulled and dowsed with sauce. The boneless rib tips were interesting, and tasted ok, but I believe ribs or brisket would have been the better choice. Baked beans were solid, Cole slaw lacked any of the sweetness or flavor I was hoping for. It was great having real sweet tea again and the hospitality didn't miss. If I returned, I'd have to adjust my order. People were friendly and the place was welcoming, a great in-and-out spot for lunch in downtown Montgomery.

By the time you get up there to pay and get your drink cup, the food is already coming up. I ordered the pull pork plate with 2 sides and a drink for $11! Can't beat that price. The fries came out hot, the pork was juicy, and the greens flavorful. Doesn't come with sauce on it but there's plenty of options on the dressing table to pick from. The only downside is the parking situation... it's insanity, with folks here in work trucks, cars, motorcycles, you name it. The line just to get in the door can be long, but the staff does a great job of getting people in & out within the time of their lunch break. Pack your patience & give them a try!

I know people throw out places like Texas, the Carolinas and Tennessee as barbecue meccas, but I stand by my claim that some of the best barbecue comes from the great state of Alabama and Fatman's is great proof of my claim. I walked in and there was a line, but it moved fast and the helpless taking our our orders were friendly. The inside is pretty much low on ambiance, but the food is the real star here. Since it was packed inside, I got my food to-go and ate at a nearby park. I had the pulled pork plate with camp stew and potato salad. Everything was absolutely wonderful. I would definitely recommend here and I give it five stars.

You can order at the counter or request table service. We sat down and looked over the menu. They do a good job of accurately describing everything in there so there were few questions. We ordered fountain drinks which were attentively refilled. The fried dumplings were delicious, crispy and fresh. The chicken had the most uniquely delicate crust, and both of our selections were tasty and nicely presented. The interior is modern and comfortable and immaculate. Do not hesitate!

I initially…read morethought the wings were pricey, but after seeing the size of the 8 of them I had no complaints, and the flavor on them was great! Had the right amount of kick to them as well. The fried rice was good, but I think it could have used a little more spice, but then again it's possible I needed to cleanse my palate from the wings. The service was friendly though it did take a bit for someone to come to the counter. Inside was nice and had a good amount of seating if you wanted to eat in with a group, and ample parking in the lot outside as it's within a shopping plaza. I'm not in Alabama too often, but I save this place to my maps listing as it's well worth another visit.

Everyone loved the gorgeous space and food. I especially loved the private bathrooms and seating areas. The staff was very kind. They printed and set up name cards for me before arrival. Communication prior was great. Everything went well and we had a great time. With the added bartender and outside dessert fee, the total was roughly $105/person for 18 people. This included the pimento cheese board, wedge salad, entree, and small dessert. It is a tiny bit pricey for the size of the entrees, but was worth it for the private space, service, and quality.
