What brandon l doesn't like about Fat Jimmy's:
I've been wanting to try this place for a long time. They were the absolute worst ribs I've ever had. They were super dry and tough. I just ended up eating the sides and not eating the rest of the ribs. I gave them 3 stars because the waitress was so nice. View all feedback. What Trisha T likes about Fat Jimmy's:
One of the best bbq places I have ever been! Small little whole in the wall place, family oriented, and the employees were really friendly! We will be going back! View all feedback.

Fat Jimmy's is a small little hole-in-the-wall BBQ joint that has been receiving mixed reviews. While some customers have described their ribs as the worst they have ever eaten due to being dry, tough, and burnt, others have raved about the delicious pulled pork sandwich and efficient service provided by the friendly waitstaff. Despite the inconsistent reviews, many have praised the family-oriented atmosphere, tasty buckwheat pancakes, and tantalizing flavors that bring out the best in their food. With home-cooked meals, generous portions, and a hardworking staff, Fat Jimmy's seems to be a hit or miss spot for barbecue enthusiasts.

What an awesome find. The building left a little to be desired but the food more than made up for it.
