the inside of a burrito
Christina S.

Was really craving a Philly cheesesteak recently and decided to order from fat shack. I thought to myself these guys do these wild stoner type sandwiches they've gotta have a legit regular old Philly right? Well not so much. Honestly maybe it's my own fault for not adding extra peppers and onions cuz I guesss I just assumed it would come with a decent amount. If you take anything away from this review it is to make sure to add those. I mean the sandwich wasn't bad it was just somewhat bland with the amount of onions / peppers that come standard. I really think that the sandwich would have been four stars if it had more of those. But I guess I also feel like a decent amount should be standard in your traditional Philly I don't know. I also do need to point out the the onion rings were meh. They honestly tasted like out of a frozen bag. Not sure if they promote making / hand bartering their own onion rings but again I feel like if your concept is to make fatty greasy stoner food you should like try to do that homemade / above and beyond!? Maybe that's just me. I probably wouldn't order them again. All in all a fairly average experience.

This place is a crazy experience, I can see why this joint has a reputation for the late night muchers. The store itself is tiny, befitting for a goblin like myself (helps me get to places quicker). It's pretty dark with all the black paint, though. And the wait to get your food is pretty lengthy, but the wait is reasonable for the food you get. That food is a drunk's dream. Fries crammed into your choice and style of sub. And the sizes are thicker than the examples. So choose wisely.

If you're looking for wings.... Don't come here. So this picture is 10 wings and a large drink. Garlic Parmesan Is one flavor and the other is lemon pepper. No sauce whatsoever on the g.p. order. Barely meat on those wings. He asked if I wanted ranch or anything on the side and I asked for honey mustard. Got no sauce in my bag. Thumbs down. 0/10 wouldn't recommend.

Veggie Sub, Mac'n'cheese bites and Fried Oreo's with a drink.
John D.

Came in for my 1st time. The man working the register was nice. The ambience was slightly better than average. The food was average. I don't have a desire to come back. I don't eat meat... so I ordered a veggie sub. It was 3 out of 5 stars. I also ordered the Mac n cheese bites that were ok, the sauce with them is delicious. And I tried Fried Oreo's for my first time. They were also ok, I had higher expectations.

After landing back home at 9:30, not too many options open in my neighborhood (that's not McD's etc) so we saw Fat Shack and decided to try.. FIRST - I was not aware of what the hell a "fat sandwich" was.. O=M=G. Where were you when I was in college?? Oh yeah, I was in LA/Hollywood eating at taco trucks.. But this is a whole new level of WOW. So yes, this would have been amazing had I been drinking and starving - but I was only starving and it was still fantastic! My choice needed something to cut the fried tenders, fried mozzarellas, fried onion rings and fried fries! But it was still great for a very starving person at 11 pm by the time we got home. ABSOLUTELY will be back!!

Why am I just now learning about this place? It was the only bright spot in a less than pleasant night. I mean just look at this burger. Who does this at midnight? It's too perfect! My only real issue was that it's not as quick as I thought.

They have a ton of different burger options and they all sounded so good. From mushroom burgers to bisons to ones that had so much bacon on it, you really can't go wrong here! Came in to pick up and service was pretty quick. They pointed me in the right direction. Not enough interactions to give them a rating. The restaurant and bar was popping. It was busy on this Friday night around 8pm. About 3/4 full. It was sorta loud but good energy. I think I would have preferred to eat in rather than take out. I ordered sweet potato fries (you can sub them out for others like onion rings or truffle fries etc) with my short rib stacker burger. The burger was on point. The fries, maybe because they were cold by time I ate them, were disappointing. The herb infused cream cheese was the cherry on top. The braised short rib wasn't as juicy and I'd never order it separately but together, it made for a pretty good burger. I also had the Brie and bacon bites which are crispy pastry bites stuffed with brie cheese & applewood-smoked bacon. They dust then with powdered sugar which I thought was okay. It is served with housemade cranberry cream sauce. They have multiple locations it turns out. So if you don't pop by this one, don't fret, there are others!

Seating for 6 at best and mostly a counter and a kitchen. Is this in a location that is just a little unexposed to drive by traffic, yes. It is off Sheridan and 10th Ave between apartment buildings and houses not what you expect. As I drove up to the location it is in a building with an off brand convenience store and a dry cleaners with no other businesses nearby. It's not real inviting from the exterior or even the interior as far as that goes. This is a classic case of " don't judge a book by It's cover " or you'll be missing out on a real gem for customer service and tasty eats. We were greeted upon arrival by a very pleasant lady behind the counter. We took one of the three small empty tables and studied the menu. You order at the counter and most of the customer traffic while we were there was Doordash type orders and the to go orders were steady. My son ordered three tacos and a bottle of Coke. I ordered the breakfast burrito with bacon as the protein and smothered with green chili. This is rare but my son raved about the tacos, not just that they were good. He stated that he would definitely be returning to repeat the experience. He said he could taste every ingredient used to make his tacos. My breakfast burrito was very tasty, every ingredient was cooked to my expectation. The eggs were fluffy, bacon crispy but not burnt and the hash browns cooked to perfection. The star of this dish for me was the green chili that smothered an already delicious breakfast burrito. We both agreed this was one of the best lunches we have enjoyed over the years. Don't be put off by the location or the exterior, its worth a visit. The service was good, food was excellent, the place was clean and the prices were reasonable. I don't know the story behind this restaurant but I hope going forward they get good business demand because good food and good service should be appreciated. In the last three or more years service has certainly declined and good food is harder to find at reasonable prices. I will be back when I am in the area to try other dishes and my son who lives not too far away says it is his new taco place. I would invite other Yelper's to give it a try.

For once I can say that the burger that was served too me looked exactly as advertised online. Maybe it's because I went a little later in the evening when they were closing up but the burger patty tasted like it was sitting off the grill or under the heating lamp for a while...it definitely was not fresh off the griddle, I know these burgers can be so much better if the patty was piping hot so I'm definitely willing to come back at a more decent time and and give it a second go! The Guac that came on the burger tasted super fresh and yummy. The Bacon that came on the burger was spectacular, rich, smoky, savory bacon!!!

It didn't disappoint and we enjoyed our first visit so much we returned a few days later. Spacious restaurant with a fair amount of outdoor seating, we really enjoy the setup. We have yet to dine al fresco since it's been fairly hot but we'd like to try it when the weather cools off. Everything we've had has been good, two things that stood out where the lobster roll and the prime ny strip (Thursdays) which were outstanding. Good variety of craft beers, cocktails, and wine with something for all palates. I love that an ice cream shop is attached to the restaurant, on our first visit we took a pint of their Heath Ice Cream to go since we were stuffed. I do need to return to try some of their sausage dogs! Great spot, lots of parking, fantastic staff, and large menu with lots of specials make this a regular to be on our rotation!

Being able to drive 20 minutes for a great meal is something to appreciate. Sometimes the stars align, and the service is top tier, the vibe is right, and you walk away with a fantastic experience. That's exactly what happened at the Magic food bus Chef Gary & Ashley were some of the nicest, most welcoming owners I've met. The passion and care they put into their food is palpable, making the meal even more enjoyable. What I ordered: Green Chili Cheesesteak, MFBUS Smashed Burger, MFBUS Hot Chicken Sandwich, Colorado Burrito, Truffle Parmesan Brussels Sprouts, Fries. Best bite: I texted a friend after my second bite of the cheesesteak, and I'm quoting myself here: "I think I just had the best Philly cheesesteak I've ever had." The name may have been wrong, but the taste was correct! Perfectly cooked beef, Colorado green chilis, and an amoroso bun that altogether made the perfect bite. The hot chicken sandwich was top tier, with the perfect amount of spice without sacrificing flavor (my biggest pet peeve with spicy food). The smashed burger? Easily in my top 5 (maybe top 3?) in Denver Metro. And that burrito--WOW. Perfectly cooked steak, fresh smashed avocado, and a cheese-crusted tortilla. 10/10, no notes.
