Whether you’re a longtime regular or a traveler wandering through town, our goal is to make you feel right at home. So welcome to Fatz! You know, we opened our doors back in 1988 with a signature dish, Calabash Chicken. And our first restaurant wasn’t fancy. I mean, it was a converted peach stand, for goodness sake. But who needs fancy when the food is famous? And so it began with World Famous Calabash Chicken served with, dare we say it, world famous friendliness. Now, 31 years later, we’re still serving up both. You could say we’ve upped the ante on food with amazing Southern-inspired, Chef-designed steaks, seafood, ribs and more. But you’ll have to judge for yourself. So come on by and we’ll set you a place at Our Table.
