Reviews for Fatty's Seafood - Slidell in Slidell, LA
Pros -Catherine at the bar is fantastic - beer is super cold - crab/corn bisque is fantastic Cons - crab cakes tonight were... mostly fillers. May not be the usual but it was like a fried grit cake. Not much crab. - the crab stuffed shrimp was more ofthe same. Fried balls of grit like batter. I?m a big fella that eats everything. I didn?t even want to attempt to eat thisdish. Left it on the bar. Tonight, the cook failed the crab based menu options. I?ll come back next time I?m in town and giveit another try on something else. Read more
If you're looking for some GREAT food this is the place to go! We have been looking for an authentic Louisiana restaurant and... found it! The blackened chicken and Cajun potatoes (side dish) with sautéed veggies (side dish) and The Fat Cat. The cremeBrulee for dessert is a must (best I've EVER had)! Our server couldn't have been better either! So kind and even offered toget us Iced Tea to go! Our server would have been working on Tuesday evening but unfortunately I didn't catch her name! Shehad her back in French braids that looked beautiful though if that helps at all! We have been traveling from Michigan all weekand the kindness we have received has been very refreshing and wonderful! Read more
We were passing through on our way to Florida and decided to give this place a try. Danielle was our waitress. She was great.... I got the corn and crab bisque. My daughter got the grilled chicken and my husband and son both got the blackened chickenalfredo. Everything was delicious. Even the honey mustard salad dressing was thick and delicious. The bathrooms were clean. Nicesafe area of town it appeared. I?d definitely dine there again! Read more
The vibe from a few customers was unsettling, but I can't put that on the restaurant. SERVICE (1 star for original waiter, 4... star for management): The waiter is the reason for the low rating. He was rushing us. Yes, we knew they closed at 10 and arrivedat 9:10, but that doesn't excuse his service. The first thing out my mouth was that I wanted to order the seafood nachos. Therest of my party placed an order for boudin balls. We received boudin balls and a spinach artichoke dip, but no seafood nachos.We didn't even order the dip, but decided to keep it because...again...the waiter was rushing and we didn't want to be aninconvenience. The last straw was us trying to flag him down and having to clap and wave our hands to get noticed as he walkedRIGHT past our table. If you're racist and upset you have a bald spot in the middle of your head, just say that. Don't ruin ourtime in Slidell with your negativity. The Assistant Manager and other staff went above and beyond to make it right. We feltcomfortable and were satisfied by how apologetic they were, but still, the waiter himself was the issue. FOOD (4 Star): Theseafood nachos were very good and the fruit punch. Probably the only thing we'd order from them while in town. The boudin ballsI didn't taste, but was told they were just ok. The dip was too soupy and thin, but good and the bowtie was different. My sonloved them. The loaded seafood scampi was decent as well. It came with a crawfish (seasoned wonderfully) and a few shrimps, butbarely any crab meat. I'd order the boiled crawfish and seafood nachos. Very good!!! Read more
Food looks pretty good but it was so SALTY & greasy. I mean I know the place is called Fattys but we weren?t able to eat the... meals at all. The oysters& crab cakes were decent and our waiter was very nice but we found a cockroach in our booth and left?very disappointing Read more
My girl had the Payton's Fries with Blackened Shrimp on top and I had the Eggplant dish with Crawfish Sauce over Angel Hair... Pasta and boy was it good. Their fried pickles were very tasty . Both were very tasty . Our server was very attentive andhelpful and we just had a great experience. Read more

I was excited to finally get a chance to eat here. I decided to try their chargrilled oysters and seafood nachos. The food was... flavorful but a bit on the salty side. The service is good nothing special but good. I don?t see myself going back here. Thekids shrimp and fries were dry and didn?t have any flavor and the fries were okay. Read more
