“ Heard good things so I had to check the place out. It’s small inside but incredibly clean! They clearly care about the quality of their food and establishment. The burnt ends and Mac and cheese I got were delicious, as well as the corn bread (it’s actually some of the best I’ve had!). Employees were polite, took my order quickly and got my food to me hot and fresh. Highly suggest this restaurant if you like good BBQ ”
“ I simply love local restaurants. So much friendlier, and the food is fresh. ”
“ This place was out of this world!!! The Rack Ribs were super tender and fell off the bone! The Creamy Cheese-N-Mac was delicious and super creamy! Needless to say, I lost my no-nut stream... ”
“ One of my bosses that lives in Horseheads, recommended Fat City & it's the best barbecue we've ever had!! Some places have great meat, but the sides are just okay.. Joe's entire menu is hand's down the ultimate!! Everything is completely stellar ”
“ Came for the Valentine's Day special, just in time! We had an awesome dinner for two, with excellent service. The food was some of the best BBQ I've ever had, and the staff gave us some extra sauces to try. Great place, well definitely be back! ”
“ Amazing eatery! Have been wanting to try this place for awhile, finally got a chance today. Easy to get to, plenty of parking opportunities. As soon as I opened the door, all I could smell was the delicious smoky scent of barbecue. Small space inside, only two tables to eat at, but outdoor seating was also available. Daily specials are posted, today happened to be smoked chicken wings, and a side cucumber salad was offered for an additional fee. We ordered the Carolina Pork Platter and Pork Fat Platter with two sides. The Carolina Pork Platter is dry rubbed, then wet mopped with a vinegar sauce, and comes topped with an apple slaw, which I wasn't sure about at first but ended up being a delicious combination! Slightly smoky pork (perfectly prepared in my opinion) with the crunchy slaw and a side of the vinegar mop comes with the plate as did a warm piece of cornbread. Portion was ample, better than I expected. We ordered the Pork Fat Platter with two sides- macaroni salad and baked beans. I've had many macaroni salads in my day, and generally they are all about the same, but I liked this version better than most for some reason. Not sure exactly how it is prepared, but it had boiled egg, anneli pasta, and celery. The baked beans were above and beyond the usually supplied dish that is offered by others. There were cooked peppers included, and a sprinkling of bacon bits on top. Very well done!!! Staff was SUPER friendly, and accommodating. Will definitely return again!!! ”
“ OMG. I've driven by a number of times and tonight we were in the mood for some BBQ. The ribs fell off the bone and were amazing. The pulled pork was great. The cornbread was out of this world and I'm running out of adjectives for the rest of it. Very reasonable price for what we got. I'm just mad I didn't stop here sooner! ”
“ Friendly staff, large portions, and very good BBQ. My wife ordered a half rack with mac and cheese and barbecue beans. I am not a big BBQ eater but ended up eating some of hers. It was so good I ended up ordering a brisket sandwich the next day. They also offer a military discount. ”
