Reviews for The Fat Cat in Quincy, MA
First time trying The Fat Cat and loved it! Now I understand why it is so popular here. The food was DELICIOUS and the portions... are huge. I think Linguini Alfredo with Chicken was the best I've ever tried. Mac&Cheese and burger were amazing, too! Theservice by Marina was excellent! She took a wonderful care of us and did it in a very warm and caring way - very rare tofind. The only thing is they need to fix their website/s - while I searched for the hours and menu before going there, I foundtwo sites online and none was working. It would be great to fix it. I will definitely be back! ???? Read more
Great experience and a great meal overall. We went on a Tuesday night and they weren't overly busy. We were seated quickly and... the waitress (who was on her game the whole meal) came over right away with drinks and menus. Our order was put in just as fastand the food came out surprisingly faster. We ordered 4 burgers and the Fat Cat Mac and Cheese. The burgers were cooked perfectand actually had burger taste to them (like some guy was in the back grilling on a legit barbecue). The Mac and Cheese was huge(I NEVER take food home and there was enough left over for a second meal) and definitely worth a try. Price wise we werepleasantly surprised to see relatively cheap and reasonable prices for everything on the menu especially compared to the area.Service wise our waitress kept our waters filled the whole meal (simple yet often overlooked) and checked in a bunch to makesure we were taken care of. Additionally one of the chefs (I'm guessing) brought our food out and had the look of someone whoknew how to run a good kitchen. Overall it was a great meal, with great service and was priced very reasonably. I would 100%recommend this place to anyone in the area. Read more
Mostly got burgers. Some ordered well done some ordered medium rare. Everything came perfect. Big 10 oz burgers juicy and... decent fries. Mac and cheese plate was huge. Marina our waitress was fantastic. Only negative was the AC wasn't working givethem a week and that'll probably be repaired. Prices were fair, and we would go back, both for food and drinks.

A friend of mine mentioned this place a few times before the pandemic. I'm glad I could finally get there. Interesting place in... a busy section of Quincy. The food is really good. BIG PORTIONS!!! The Crabcakes were some of the best I've had in Mass, ( Igrew up in Maryland, so I know Crabcakes). The spicy aoli is good, it adds depth of flavor but still let the Crabcake flavorthrough. I got the Fat Cat Philly with Truffle Fries. BIG, but very tasty. They have several flavors of fries on the menu. Realgood flavor on the Philly. The Mac and Cheese is the best mac I've ever had, soo good. I know, your mom makes the best Mac ev'ahright? WRONG! This will open your world to how good a Mac and Cheese can be and don't even think about going back to KFC orChick fil a after this. You could drink the garlic cream sauce in a straw and it would be awesome. BIG. REALLY BIG. You can feed4 people with this. Unless you are carb loading for the marathon, do not get this alone. You can also add meats for anadditional charge. The bartender was super nice. She mentioned that their drinks have a kick to them, so be warned. Anotherthing is that the bathrooms for this place aren't in the restaurant but across the hall. They were not well maintained when Iwas there, I'm not sure if the building manager or the restaurant is responsible for that so I will not let it effect my score,but as patrons be warned. Parking is not great in the area as well, but you can walk there from Quincy Center. Definitely worthvisiting, bring friends Read more
It slaps. Been here twice and liked everything we ordered. Friendly service and enormous portions. Expect to pay a few extra... bucks per item (especially the drinks), but you'll get your money's worth in flavor and leftovers (entrees specifically). Thefried calamari with jalapeños is the best calamari I've had. The haddock chowder comes loaded with bacon. Still reminiscingabout the pasta. Overall, expect American comfort food with a flavorful twist. Read more
Life is short F....it up! Family Friends Flavor. This will be a 2 part review to be fair. As you know I'm always looking for a... great burger. The fat cat burger was good and cooked as ordered but it didn't have that hmmmmm factor. ( Average). This was thesame for the crab cake. If you want to get the loaded Mac and cheese I give it 5 stars. Very savory and it big and even betterthe next few days! ???? Read more
To be honest, it?s just an average restaurant and I would not visit again. Service was good, this review is only about their... food. Cajun Chicken wings tasted weird, Pork ribs were super dry, as well as the fries. Tuna steak & crab cakes were just okay. Read more
Affordable pub looking spot with amazing staff. Tasty wings, nice Pink Panther drink and delicious bread pudding. Unfortunately,... just like previous reviews the ribs are extremely dry. In fact they were the worst ribs i?ve ever had. I was hoping the otherreviews was wrong but they aren?t. The ribs comes with tasty coleslaw and fries that need a new recipe for flavor. Read more
