We stopped by on the way to Ashland, KY and this was the perfect spot! Our waiter, a Marshall student, was very polite and patient with us and both the restaurant and the restrooms were very clean. We did not have to wait a long time for our food at all and once we got our food I was very impressed! The burger was big and juicy and you could tell how fresh it was from the taste. The fries were perfectly crispy and golden. If I'm in Huntington again, I'm definitely coming back! read more

This was my second--and last--time visiting this location in Teays Valley, West Virginia. On my first visit, when we entered, the wait staff immediately asked my companion, "What can I do for you?" My companion, who is white, was confused by the question because it's not typically asked of privileged folks. I quickly realized that my presence as a Black woman in an all-white restaurant was the likely reason for the unusual and uncomfortable treatment. We were then seated in the very back of the restaurant, past the main dining area and into the bar section. I understand seating can depend on waiter availability, but as a Black person in America, I am all too familiar with being placed in the "back" and decided to give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt. After all, I love the Ashland, Kentucky location. Unfortunately, on this second visit, I was once again seated in the back--this time at least in the dining area. The experience did not improve. Unlike my first visit, where the food was at least hot and flavorful, this time the food was the worst I've had from this chain, both in taste and temperature. If you are Black, I strongly suggest avoiding this location. The treatment and quality here do not compare to the Ashland, Kentucky restaurant and left me deeply disappointed. read more

Be more prepared for game days!!! Waitress took drink order. Beer arrived but never the sodas. She was M.I.A. For 15-20 min, ended up paying for one beer and left. The hostess admitted she was going to breakdown crying because she had no clue where to seat anyone. It's sad that they are only steps away from the stadium, instead we ate at the food trucks. read more

Heather J was amazing as always. She is very professional and attentive to whatever we might need. She makes sure we are satisfied with our food and keeps our drinks filled. She also is great at making friendly conversation. We just love her! The atmosphere is always enjoyable as well! read more

Do not go there. (Especially on Game day) Service is bad. Food is bad, especially if you actually get your food. Since this place was sold it has deteriorated to a complete joke. read more

I have a list of 10 things (no exaggeration) that went horribly wrong during this experience. However I am leaving them off this review since the manager took care of our bill and explained the ownership change currently happening. Given their willingness to try to win future business back, I will abstain from sharing the list and update this review in the future. read more

I'm in Ashland, KY for work. I was told that I had to eat at Fat Pattys. I went on Thursday June 23rd. I was seated immediately. It was 630pm and the place was mostly full. It was loud. There was a juke box playing requested hits. The place was clean. The waitress was quick to take my order. I ordered the burger (Clint's Original Burger), tater tots, n a Diet Pepsi. My food came quick! Like in less then 10 minutes. The burger bun was dry but tasted good. The tater tots were, well.... Tater tots. The total cost of my meal was $13.75 plus tip. Final thoughts- honestly, if I lived here I wouldn't be a frequent customer to Fat Patty's. It's cool to say that I've been here but the food was only ok, the service was great and the price was reasonable. read more

I was not impressed with the food Service slow and the waitress was boarder line rude Food was not made correctly 3 out of 5 items were wrong Appetizers and meal came out at the same time They used a napkin to clean the table off I found out after I came to sit down Will not be going back Believe the bad reviews read more

When you get a burger, you get a side of unseasoned veggies (cauliflower & carrots). You used to get chips and a pickle. It has really went downhill if you ask me. read more

Horrible service!! Management is a joke and refuses to fix problems with orders. Will charge you for items you did not receive and then refuse to fix the issue. The GM is an absolute nightmare of a person and is a walking ball of misery and foul attitude. This place has gone down hill since the new owner, it's been nothing but problems since he bought the restaurant. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!! read more

Fat Patty's Huntington - Paid for a burger patty and didn't get it! Management refused to fix issue! - Desserts Near Me - Huntington, West Virginia

So sorry. Food could have been way way better. First easy parking and they were open late so both good points. Servers was so nice. Two were helping me but sorry I didn't get their names. Started with a caesar salad (*) with grilled salmon (***). There was way too much dressing on the salad. So the salad was drowned out with the dressing. Even the salmon couldn't save it. The fried mushrooms and popcorn shrimp were both TOO SALTY. Felt like the classic move done in many bars and grills when they want you to keep ordering drinks. Well I learned I will NOT be coming back. The mushrooms were less salty than the popcorn shrimp but when I ate them separately they are still too salty. Okay I learned my lesson. read more

Stopped here for a little something different, and well, that's what we got. I ordered the Ruben, which came with one piece of meat and bread, so soggy when i picked it up the whole center fell out. We ordered wings, which took 26 mins because another waitress took our order to a different table. The kids' meals, which were advertised as free till close, were not free, and on top of everything, they brought us our bill before we even got our food. Dont think well be coming back. read more

I attended a graduation dinner at Fat Party's last week. This was my second time eating at this location. There were about 20 of us, so a pretty large group. Skyler was our server with some help from her manager. She kept the drinks flowing and got our orders right which was impressive for such a large group! Even when her computer went down she was able to get our checks right too. My Bayou Burger was great! And I loved the onion rings. The burger was juicy and the toppings were a great addition. The only thing I thought was odd for a burger spot was that I couldn't order my burger the way I like it, which is medium. I was told they cook all the burgers the same. But this will not stop me from going back. I can't say enough about the exceptional service we received from Skyler! Which was so much appriciated during this special celebration. read more

Really disappointing. Were really looking forward to this since it is somewhat of a Marshall Univ tradition. My son was really looking forward to a great hamburger. They weren't. Very mediocre at best. Also, their wedge salad had a number of ingredients that just don't belong on it like big pieces of white onion and Balsamic Vinegar. read more

this place is not even busy but we have sat for 20 minutes waiting for a server to even come to our table to take drink orders. My husband just ended up going to the bar to order water, told the bartender we have't been greeted yet or met a server and she apologized. He comes back to sit and we wait another 10 minutes and still no server. My husband then goes to the Bar to order our meal where the bartender took the order for us. No tip should be given if we are doing the work at a sit down restaurant. I will not waste my $$ here again since the prices are high for Self Serve! read more

If you're focused on friends or family and having a good time and not the quality of the food, then this place is for you! The service is fine and the drinks are strong. I had the fat pat double cheeseburger and it was worse than a double quarter pounder from McDonalds. read more

Shay MADE the visit for us. Wonderful and knew when to leave us to our self and also when to pay close attention and refill drinks and take late orders. If you aren't eating the Patty Melt with garlic, you aren't living right. Best experience in ALL Fat Patty's visits. Thank you SHAY! read more

Came here as a friends last meal before he moves away. Luckily it was happy hour so you get half off a list of appetizers. So our tickets could be cheap. The food has no quality anymore. I remember when it opened and the food was hot and fresh. I ordered cheese sticks and black bean soup because of the memories I have associated with how deluxe their black bean soup is. The soup was cold and they didn't bring me a tortilla until I asked and she said they burnt it. They use cheese on top instead of a dollop of sour cream which was gross because the soup wasn't hot enough the melt it. The cheese sticks were hot like they had been warmed but not melted cheese stick fresh and hot. Service was meh, she never brought a box as promised read more

Since the restaurant went chain it's lost it's freshness. The service was still good but the food went downhill.

Did a Grubhub order of a kids burger, two pretzel patties and Mac n cheese bites. Order arrived hot and was well prepared. Would definitely order again. Can't wait for all the COVID stuff to go away so we can socialize at the bar during their normally kick ass happy hour. read more

I love their food and service. I get the chips with pulled pork and chicken tenders basket with fries or onion rings. read more

This is a quirky local place for Marshall students and a lot of fun. I may not be able to ever return, though it was definitely worth the trip! Came here to interview at Marshall SOM and heard from a friend of a friend that this was a great place to try. While parking was a bit tricky (there are spaces out front, though they fill up fast and the adjacent parking lots are a bit unclear about who can park there), we found a space and headed inside on a busy Friday night. Despite the fullness of the place and the number of people in front of us, we really didn't have to wait long at all until we were seated. Our server came over and greeted us promptly. He was pleasant, and surprisingly easy to hear despite the noise level of the place (guess you develop strong vocal cords after a while!). We opted for the pretzels, which turned out to be just about the best appetizer I have ever had anywhere: they are perfectly buttered and salted, and are more pretzel loafs than your classic double-loop pretzels. Our entrees were similarly excellent, and we tried not to think about the sheer number of calories we just consumed. While some of the other patrons were rambunctious (there was a heated argument happening between a drunk girl and a guy at a nearby table) and the atmosphere is definitely loud, it's kind of part of the experience, or at least in the way that I define the place. I would highly recommend this place to out-of-towners looking for a bite to eat, so long as you don't mind the college vibe or the workout you'll need to burn this food off. Overall: 4.5 stars ------------- Pros: - Food is DELICIOUS, and you have to try the pretzels, no question. - Service is good and the staff here really do their best. - Ambiance is fun and lively. Cons: - Parking is a challenge at peak times. Look for street parking before you try to decipher the parking lot restrictions. - The noise level is high, though that's to be expected from a college joint. - The food is VERY heavy, though that didn't stop me, and you shouldn't let it stop you either! read more

Me and my wife went in to eat she got the steak that wasn't seasoned and tasted old and like blood. Told the waitress and she took it back and got her another it was the same as the first. So she decide to just eat the sides instead. The waitress was cool though because she didn't charge us for the meal. That's the only problem I've had with the foods taste. I have had delivery from there before and they always forget things you paid for. Not a bad place just stay away from the steak. Idk if it's a bad marinade they use or what and you can definitely tell and white person made it. I'm white it's OK. But I'm like Robert Downey Jr. In Tropic Thunder white. I like my foods seasoned. read more

The service was terrible I ended up waiting over an hour and a half just for a burger and nachos they sent me in the back room where they were still cleaning or they had just finished cleaning either way it was a mess I ended up working for work and I was overdue for my lunch break I tried to explain to the worker of how sensitive my timeline is and they just kept saying five more minutes I saw at least seven different customers leave and say that the place was not worth this long of a wait then when I finally did get my food it was not fresh at all the burger looked old the bun was stale my nachos looked like they sat in the cold for a good twenty minutes I understand that some places do get busy but that service was just ridiculous I will not return to that place and I do not recommend this place read more

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE JUST COMPLETELY GONE DOWN HILL IN THE LAST YEAR. I'm sure CORONAVIRUS hasn't been good but damn 1 hour & 20 minutes for a rare STEAK, then 20 minutes after that they bring my salad??? Come on now it doesn't take ANY restaurant 1 hr and 40 minutes to come out with a damn HOUSE SALAD y'all need a manager to work! read more

Two years ago if I was asked "what is your favorite place to eat?" I would have said "Fat Patty's". However since then, it has been on a steep decline, with each visit being worse than the one before. Food seems to be of a lower quality than before while the price goes up. Wait staff is very hit or miss with "good ones and bad ones". I could easily go with less than 3 stars but I want to have faith they can turn it around still. Until then save your money or go elsewhere. read more

After waiting 15 minutes I had to go and ask if they had a waitress. She laughed and said she forgot to let anyone know. Food was overpriced and horrible. Filthy bathrooms. Horrible service. Mistook butter for mayonnaise. Restaurant overall nasty, filthy. Health department needs to shut this place down. read more

We ordered take out while visiting Huntington for Marshall's homecoming, and this was the worst Fat Patty's we've ever had. After waiting 45 minutes for our order, we ended up throwing everything away. The chips and queso were extremely salty, both sweet potato fries and bacon cheese fries were on the verge of uncooked and mushy, and both burgers were dry and burnt to a crisp on the bottom. So disappointing! read more

So I don't know how this place has a 4 star review. Reading the reviews about "best burger" my buddy ordered one, and pretty much put it under the category of a soy burger. Sheetz has better burgers. I ordered a buffalo chicken salad for some reason I don't know why and that was terrible as well. The ratio of cheese to salad was 80/20, Pretty ridiculous if you ask me. We ordered pulled pork nachos and they were your typical bar food, good enough but nothing that makes you say I have to come back to get those! And finally they somehow managed to fuck up the beer. Bud light was flat and luke warm, and a Guinness tasted pretty damn flat/expired. I always finish my beer but not this time apparently. The only reason I gave them 2 stars was for fast service. Again I'm no restaurant critic , I'm just a guy with taste buds . read more
