We agreed and we asked about a jalapeño tequila and she offered us a great option to make us "skinny" margaritas! Never had one but was game to try! Well we both had 2 because they were delicious!! The venue is narrow and like the other Tinyz, everyone faces the bar! Cool concept! The TVs were playing everything from women's lacrosse to race cars. The beautiful woodwork in Tinyz was very luxurious and appealing! Since this is walking distance from my office, I may be there more times than not!!

Sweetie got crab dip and though it tasted good she wasn't thrilled with the texture (too finely minced?) But that was the only misstep. Shared spinach artichoke dip with my cousin, both liked it. Also shared an order of fried fish- again liked it. Good, tender fish, with a thin crispy batter nicely seasoned. Another cousin got a bowl of fisherman's chowder, as did I, and we both really liked it. Chock full of seafood. Her husband got a Philly cheesesteak and said it was excellent. Kid K got tenders and fries, all good. Plus a side Caesar salad which she liked (and I finished, again good.) And we got some cheese sticks, also good reviews all around. Service was great. Prices were decent. Mixed drinks and beers were good. It's handy- and open in the off season. With limited options, it's nice to find good ones. I'd come back.

Ordered some food and asked if they could change the channel on the game in front of us and was told no.

Then we were told we could not sit at a table for six with only 3 people. We moved to a 4 top and were practically ignored by our waitress. Extremely poor service. No wonder the place was empty.

Fat Burgers is in a very unassuming little strip mall. Upon entering there is a sign at the door…read morethat said, please wait to be seated. The place seemed pretty quiet. A lot of people walking around, but not a lot happening. I decided since I was pretty hungry to go to the bar figuring I might get quicker service there. I started with a water and the menu. And since it's called fat burgers, I definitely was going to try a burger. I tried there fatty. I think it was called. Basically a build your own burger. I love the option of pink or no pink. I got mine with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mayo. the waitress recommended the regular fries, so I went with that. I have to say the food was fantastic, the wait staff was very pleasant. However, the TVs weren't working so I couldn't watch any sports. And it took me over 15 minutes to flag somebody down to close out my bill. Like I said it wasn't that busy , so I didn't expect that to happen at all. The food was very good, but only 4 stars because the help wasn't very helpful. Sorry.

We've lived in the area for about 6 years. Eat out fairly often. This restaurant by far has been…read morethe most consistent in the quality of the food, which is the best of all the restaurants in the topsail area. It is not fine dining and has the sports bar vibe. It is a relatively small place and I recommend going on non peak hours in season. If you are into oysters, they have a great selection of both local and regional on the half shell. If you prefer cooked, chargrilled or steamed is a good choice. While the menu has a great selection of seafood, the chalkboard specials features extremely fresh local catches which change daily. While there are several restaurants in and around the topsail area this is the only one where I have never been disappointed. If you go at peak hours during the vacation season expect to wait but it is worth it. You can't miss with any of the steamed shellfish offerings and if you prefer fried there batter is light and not overpowering. As a sports bar, they have a large selection of tap and bottled beers and a good mixology of liquor options which is only outdone in my opinion by Rick's in Sneads Ferry

We each had one shot each and the bartender decided it was a good idea to cut us off . We were extremely disappointed because we just had 1 shot each. We are both bartender, my friend and I, and completely understand if the bartender decides cut us off but we literally had 1 shot ! I got really upset cause we really thought we found a place to hang out . Especially since are walking distance from our home. Literally 5 min walk from my home. We we're just going to get two shots each and after just a drink. Cause that's what we normally do. We are not the type to get shit faced. We just wanted to hang ... get a little buzz and play pool . But I'm guess since we are in our mid twenties and everyone else is in there were 50+ and knew the bartenders... they we're getting special treatment. I should also add, we definitely felt like we were getting treated different from everyone else. I don't know it's because we were two young females and didn't fit the "scene " . But we were causing no trouble. We were playing pool for an hour and we decided to get another shot AFTER ONE HOUR!! and that's when the bartender told us the the OTHER BARTENDER told her to cut us off. I even asked why? And her answer was " I don't know " I even told her " I've only had one shot an HOUR AGO" and she just looked at me and said nothing ... It be one thing , if we were being obscene or disrespectful.but nope ...... and all the other folks hanging out at the end of the bar looked like they should of been cut of ! They were being loud and slurring their words. And one of the guys kept sexually harassing us . But we did t care and ignored him. Si if you're old, you're golden.
