Mostly got burgers. Some ordered well done some ordered medium rare. Everything came perfect. Big 10 oz burgers juicy and decent fries. Mac and cheese plate was huge. Marina our waitress was fantastic. Only negative was the AC wasn't working give them a week and that'll probably be repaired. Prices were fair, and we would go back, both for food and drinks.

Good service and food was decent. The Mac was good but honestly just too big. I wish the sauce was more of a traditional cheese sauce than the garlic creme sauce.

A friend of mine mentioned this place a few times before the pandemic. I'm glad I could finally get there. Interesting place in a busy section of Quincy. The food is really good. BIG PORTIONS!!! The Crabcakes were some of the best I've had in Mass, ( I grew up in Maryland, so I know Crabcakes). The spicy aoli is good, it adds depth of flavor but still let the Crabcake flavor through. I got the Fat Cat Philly with Truffle Fries. BIG, but very tasty. They have several flavors of fries on the menu. Real good flavor on the Philly. The Mac and Cheese is the best mac I've ever had, soo good. I know, your mom makes the best Mac ev'ah right? WRONG! This will open your world to how good a Mac and Cheese can be and don't even think about going back to KFC or Chick fil a after this. You could drink the garlic cream sauce in a straw and it would be awesome. BIG. REALLY BIG. You can feed 4 people with this. Unless you are carb loading for the marathon, do not get this alone. You can also add meats for an additional charge. The bartender was super nice. She mentioned that their drinks have a kick to them, so be warned. Another thing is that the bathrooms for this place aren't in the restaurant but across the hall. They were not well maintained when I was there, I'm not sure if the building manager or the restaurant is responsible for that so I will not let it effect my score, but as patrons be warned. Parking is not great in the area as well, but you can walk there from Quincy Center. Definitely worth visiting, bring friends

Life is short F....it up! Family Friends Flavor. This will be a 2 part review to be fair. As you know I'm always looking for a great burger. The fat cat burger was good and cooked as ordered but it didn't have that hmmmmm factor. ( Average). This was the same for the crab cake. If you want to get the loaded Mac and cheese I give it 5 stars. Very savory and it big and even better the next few days! 🤤

They don't take reservations at the Fat Cat. Just walk right in they will seat you, just make sure your entire party is there with you.

Daniel Mulligan | Sep 3, 2018

You can get the Mac and cheese plain, or with a number of things on it. There is no takeout menu per say, but you can order anything off the menu as takeout and they'll happily do that for you. Gotten some from there myself a number of times.
