Another gem on Central Ave!…read more Located on Route 5 EB in Colonie, just west of the Northway (I-87), Fat Boy Kababs & Pizzeria is a low key Middle Eastern/pizza shop in the former Mathura Indian Restaurant/Hookah Lounge Cafe space with parking along the building on Holland Ave. The place is order at the counter with overhead lighted menu boards offering chicken, beef and lamb tikkas, koftas, shawarmas, wraps, gyros, lamb shank, wings, fried fish, tandoori fish, zinger sandwiches, fries, and pizzas. Most dinners priced $9.99-$14.99 in 2024. Pizzas are priced $17.99-$24.99 in 2024. There is booth seating in the front window and along the wall opposite the counter area. I've stopped by here twice over the past 2 weeks for dinner takeout. I ordered the #4 Beef Kofta Dinner ($14.99 plus tax) and the #1 Chicken Tikka Dinner ($14.99 plus tax), both served with rice pulao, soft pita bread and cold salad with yogurt & spicy dressings. Both the seasoned firm beef koftas (2 long pieces) and chicken tikkas (2 skewers) of marinated grilled chicken over the soft rice pulao were excellent and had nice flavors. The small cold salads were different on each visit. given a chopped mix of cucumbers, red onions, tomatoes and seasonings on the initial visit and on the next visit, the salad had half lettuce and half chopped mix of cucumbers, red onions, tomatoes and seasonings. I dipped the meats in the sauces for extra tasty flavors. I will have to stop in again for the Chicken Shawarma over Rice!

The pizza here is definitely an acquired taste. It's a round pie (cooked in an almost a deep dish…read morestyle pan) and cut into squares. The pizza is greasier than NY style pies, but is still crispy and delicious. Their subs are the best - stuffed full with meat, cheese and toppings. We usually go light on the mayo as it can be heavy ordered regular. Subs here are better bang for your buck than Roma's IMO. Cash only, but I look forward to getting a pizza, sub and wings every time I'm home visiting family.

The chicken tenders were super crisp! Loved them when eating at the shop. Once bringing home, they were not as crispy, so recommend eating there. Husband loved his chicken parm and said the chicken was amazing. Presentation of the salad was on point and they mentioned their salad dressings are Ken's, I can appreciate this, because Ken's is still family run with real ingredients. We ordered one cheese pizza, 4 chicken tenders, a chicken salad, chicken parm sub and 3 drinks and it came to roughly $70.00. Out of their menu, most people walking in were ordering subs the day we went and they also do catering as one person picked up a catering order. I agree with previous reviews that the pizza is greasy. It is cut St. Louis style, which pleasantly surprised me and set this place aside from the other pizza joints in town. It's definitely a variation of a deep dish with a medium sized crust, definitely not thin. I would probably give 4 stars if restrooms were available.

It seems pointless to leave reviews for fast food restaurants since no one at the businesses seems…read moreto care or pay attention but I'll keep doing it until something changes. I'm less a fan of fast food in general recently and the trend at places isn't helping. They all have gone downhill. Perfect example is recent visit to this location on a Friday. They were reasonably busy and the drive thru seemed insane. I went in with family as we were in a hurry and of course everything inside is falling apart. Sadly some of it, well most of it, isn't the workers fault. Clearly they are understaffed but the equipment and systems aren't helping either. Wendy's app of course doesn't work. Two phones and two separate accounts and simply won't let you check out. Go to counter to order and try using coupon and of course guy complains that it has been really slow and not working lately. (This is normal at all Wendy locations btw.) Finally goes through. Paying was no better. Couldn't get credit card reader to work but after three times finally worked. Systemic issues all the time. Finally get food but of course tables dirty and overflowing (literally) trash containers. It just is bad and I see no signs of it getting better because they are busy and struggling. I hear all the time that places can't keep people but no wonder. Small staff, terrible systems that can't keep up! People get mad in these situations and take it out on these people who lack proper equipment and training and help. At the very least remember some of these kids/people working here want to do good but don't have the tools and try not to take it out on them. Send your comments here or to their corporate people so maybe they will finally hear. As it is, I rarely do Wendy's which is the worst of all besides maybe Arby's but when in a pinch and a need to stop it's maddening to see this. I used to like their food but almost doesn't matter how good it might be just can't handle the poor service any longer.

The restaurant and bathroom are kept spotless. They also offer seating outside when it's nice out. The restaurant is attached to the mall so you can easily walk around and go shopping before or after eating. There's also a few 10 minute parking spots reserved for people getting the food to-go, which is awesome when the parking lot is packed. Highly recommend!!!
