    3 Deep-Fried OREOS
    Katura B.

    For a late night spot in Woodstock, I'm entertained! Lol We came to Fat Shack around 1 am and tried to keep it light, lol. The Fiancé ordered the Philly Cheesesteak, I ordered fries & fried oreos. At first glance, the philly looked disappointing, but the flavor was there & the bread was fresh, but not greasy like the philly's I'm used to and love! The fries were good, hot and fresh (always a plus). The fried oreos were good, but the dough was a bit thicker and on the pale side, but still good nonetheless! I would revisit Fat Shack! Especially since the only good things open late around here are literally just waffle house lol!

    Great 1st experience here at Fat Shack. Ordered just the chicken fingers and fries to try it out with a side of honey mustard and buffalo ranch. The sauces were delicious. Everything was made fresh by the staff member working today and it was all very tasty. She was incredibly friendly and was taking orders + making the food. Everything was made quickly and efficiently. Would definitely be back to try more off the menu.

    So my hopes weren't too high based on previous reviews but decided to give them a try as I was craving a Philly and the mentions about their Phillies were pretty good. Needless to say, I was not impressed with what I ordered. The philly did not have much meat in it and the taste wasn't there. The cheese fries came as a glob I guess from the cheese not being melty and warm/hot. Not really sure if I would give them another try.

    I actually downloaded Yelp to make a review on this place. I don't know what they're expecting but, I'm surprised they're still in business. I decided to get their most popular sandwich, the cow and it was by far the most soggy, inedible, sloppy bs I've ever seen. I am by far no means a picky eater. This is just non- subjectively gross.

    20 mins from Pine Mountain is this super cool eatery called Fat Shack. It's been on shark tank and they make 8" sandwich's with odd combinations. I got the "Fat Doobie" and it had mozzarella sticks, french fries, and chicken tenders all in one! Lol it was actually a lot better tasting than what I originally thought it would. I also got the fired cheesecake bites with strawberry sauce and it was amazing! The service was friendly and fast. Although its 35/40 mins from us with no traffic I'll definitely be back to try more of they famous sandwiches (:

    This is becoming a staple in my weekly routine. I'm from Chicago and this reminds me of a mom and pop place from back home. I wish they could do a Chicago dog or Italian beef . Great food all around .

    Truly a spot to eat after a rough night out on the town. They fry everything and put it on a bun. For me, all of the flavors just drowned each other out and it just tasted like grease. The fried cookies were sweet and melted in your mouth, I did enjoy those.

    Awful food and service was worse. Burgers were flavorless and the fries and rings were barely ordinary.

Unfortunately, when I went to order, I was told they were out of rice and not serving it. Very disappointing. I decided to try the 10-piece lemon pepper wings instead and specifically asked for all flats. The order taker said it could be done. However, when my food came out, the wings were mixed. My husband spoke with who I assume was the owner, and she explained that they don't typically sell all flats because it leaves them with too many drums--which is understandable. However, that should have been communicated upfront, as I likely would have ordered something else or chosen to go elsewhere. The dining area also took away from the experience. The tables were filthy, and we had to ask for ours to be cleaned before we could even sit down. To make matters worse, most of the fountain drinks were out. I settled for fruit punch, which unfortunately wasn't good. My husband and son received their meals, and overall, the food was just average at best. Between the unavailable menu items, miscommunication, cleanliness issues, and overall quality, this experience fell short of expectations. We will not be returning.

The atmosphere was upbeat, and I liked the wooden beams and old feel. The first 2 things we wanted to order they didn't have. We ordered shrimp cocktail as an appetizer, I ordered smothered chicken and my husband ordered the ribeye - medium. Our shrimp cocktail never came and when the waitress brought our meals we told her to just cancel the appetizer (since it didn't come anyway). No apologies , not a blink of an eye, just said okay and walked away. His steak was well done not medium, and dry to boot. When she finally came to check on us, he politely told her that she could take it back as it was not what he ordered, again no apologies. Of course when she brought our check which they did comp for a large percentage of the steak, she then apologized for his meal, I feel at that time because she was trying to save her chance of a good tip. To me food is half of the food experience , service is the other half. They dropped the ball on both counts today. Oh and the front door constantly was left open when customers came or went and due to that we had 2 flys that bothered it the whole meal.

Service is good & friendly. They have a patio but I always eat inside. I never have a problem finding parking nearby. I believe they have live music on Friday & Saturday nights but I haven't been to that yet.

I went to the Acworth…read morelocation & this review was affected a bit by their mediocre performance, but mostly the food. The place looks good. We went on a Monday night so we thought it would be less crowded. Almost all the parking spaces were full, as were the booths. We were seated immediately, but it took quite awhile to have a server show up. The hostess gave us water, which was nice, but when my wife asked for a Coke & I asked for lemon for my water, we were told that was the server's job. A server finally showed with menus. He was nice but seemed inexperienced. After we got the menus, he disappeared. By the time he returned, we asked for the Coke & lemon & we had also had time to look over the menu & make our choices. I had to stop him because he seemed to want to leave & get what we had asked for. So we told him what we wanted. My wife is a seafood person & ordered the grilled shrimp. I'm a ribs guy & ordered the ribs. Again, a looong wait for the food. It finally arrive. The portions were good, but here is where they lost me. The ribs were dry, really dry. I don't know how they were prepared, but the chef really needs to up that game. The grill veggies were good but were cold before I finished my first rib. I'm guessing they were put on the plate first. The sweet potato was cooked just right & delivered hot, but barely had any butter or cinnamon. My wife said her shrimp were OK but nothing to write home about. I ate 3 ribs & decided to take the rest home. I thought I might be able moisten those ribs up as leftovers. (I was wrong, they were that dry) I have never been to a restaurant that serves BBQ ribs without some kind of packaged wipe to clean your hands. Now I have. The only napkins available were teeny cocktail napkins, so I went to the Men's Room to clean up. Sorry, but I cannot recommend this restaurant. Maybe folks have better luck at a different location because the chef or prep folks were primarily responsible for this lack luster review.

Not in the staff but there are some minor interior issues which could be addressed. As the dining area and service areas are open plan you can easily see the duct tape doors to the dishwashers area is in dire need of repair versus patching. Also it is rather filthy along the edges. The wall a/c unit also needs to be completely cleaned as it appears to have some grime building up. Now for the biggest disappointment ... our food. Coffee - yummy Country fried steak biscuit..... yea nope not again. It's just like it says just a huge very thin slice of commercial packaged frozen patty of country fried steak laid across an open faced biscuit. I had a side of fresh fruit. But it was mostly out of season fruit so not sweet and still underripe. Biscuit was light and fluffy but I had to order a piece of cheese and some gravy to hide the flavor of the meat and coating. Chicken and waffles - husband's favorite here but today it wasn't the same at all. Chicken was super dry inside. Waffles he described as no different than ones he makes at the hotel lobby. All in all we will wait some before returning to try again at some point. Thank you to the wait staff for always having smiles and helping each other to keep us happy.
