Ordered the Fat Finger sandwich. It's a generous portion, but the overall taste is quite dry. It feels like it's missing some moisture; otherwise, it would be hard to eat. However, the staff at the shop are very welcoming and friendly! 點了Fat finger sandwich , 份量很大,但是整體口感很乾,感覺沒有水會吃不下去,不過店家非常熱情友善!

Food and service was amazing. Food was just as good. Nice welcoming environment and atmosphere

Lamb gyro
Thiago D.

Came here for a quick lunch since I was in the area. I've had their fat sandwiches before at the New Brunswick area so wanted to give the Newark location some love. This is also conveniently located in front of Rutgers so always jam packed with students and faculty. The turnaround time for the lamb gyro I ordered was fairly quick, no more than 5 minutes. My coworkers went with a chicken parm sandwich and a chicken Cesar wrap. Pricing was decent, but the lamb lacked serious flavor had it not been for the tzatziki sauce it would have been completely bland. Coworkers mentioned the same about their sandwiches. Average at best is what they said. The place inside is pretty spacious in case you do plan on dining in.

6. Chicken Fingers Fat Cat Sandwich
Tony Y.

First off, service was exceptional. The owner is extremely friendly. Came on a Friday night and the line was not long. I ordered the chicken fingers fat cat sandwich. The sandwich was a bit dry and tough, but it did hit the spot for a late night snack.

It took over an hour to get this sandwich.

Look, I'm old enough to remember the actual grease trucks in New Brunswick. I've ordered from here a few times as sort of comfort food harkening back to those days. Not good, but not bad. Today was BAD. I got a Fat Vavardi and got this after waiting over an hour. The chicken fingers were somehow below Walmart's Great value quality and definitely appeared microwaved, the lettuce was brown, the Tzatziki sauce was solid chunks and inexplicably, the only mozzarella stick in the whole thing after I dissected it was half of one, which makes it even more baffling as to where was the rest of that mozzarella stick. Literally no one expects quality from RU Hungry. It is what it is, but this was just WTF level of bad from them.

Cheesesteaks Wrap
Jerry D.

Decided to try this spot out for a lunch meeting. Cheesesteaks were very good, however, they did not come with onions and peppers. There's no option to add this to any of the food app ms either, but the pictures do show them. I would give this place another try in the future.

Fat ZBT
Paul T.

Great location right off the campus. I was thrown off by the sign outside however because it said home of the original Fat Sandwich so I said I wonder what the fat sandwiches. I looked at the menu the top item was a fat cat which was a burger. Now I know burgers are technically sandwiches but I wouldn't think to call a burger a sandwich. Another thing I didn't like was all of their menu items on the sandwich side were called fat something. It kind of took the luster away especially because I'm just reading the menu full of FAT this and FAT that but what's the fat I really want. I got the zbt which had chicken tenders onion rings french fries and barbecue sauce. I didn't realize the french fries we're going to be in my sandwich that was very surprising however it was still very tasty and I almost Devour the whole thing even though I'm on this fake diet.

Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla
Maria S.

This is a good spot. The food is made well and the portions fit the price. It's slow, though. Be ready to wait 15-20 minutes for an order when you're the only one there. It's worth a visit if you're in the area!

This is my first time visiting Newark and I only ate one real restaurant meal, and I 100% picked…read morethe BEST place! We lucked up on parking and found a spot on the street right in from of the restaurant. It's not a large space but cozy from the moment you walk in. The ENTIRE staff were friendly, attentive, and amusing! We had to wait just a few minutes for a table. The menus are so cute and all of our questions were answered. We loved that they raved about everything. We could not go wrong! Not many places I've been have a ground chicken patty burger option so I was excited to try it. They were out of sweet potato fries but the regular fries were delish! I love a homemade fry! I'm not a spicy fan so I had the sauce on the side and after tasting it, I loved it! I risked the spice (it's really not spicy) and added it to my sandwich. Perfection! To top it all off, the strawberry lemonade was just the right amount of everything: not tart, not too sweet. It was a little pricey for lemons are but I get it when you're squeezing lemons! Kai, the owner, was great! I love a black-owned business and what he has built is sure to be there for years to come. The entire staff were amazing. The food was so memorable. When I'm in Newark again it'll be the first place I go. I gotta come back and try the pound cake. They were sold out.

Great service the moment we walked through the doors! Kai (I hope I remembered that correctly) was…read moreamazing. The food was delicious. The Ginger Lemonade made me very very happy. It tasted like homemade lemonade with chunks of lemon - like the kind we'd made for the lemonade stand with lemons from the backyard. Perfect place to stop before a show at the performing arts center across the street. We walked through a beautiful park to get there. Highly recommend!!!! Give them all of your business!!!
