Could’ve eaten an average burger meal for less than $27. Who puts this much onion on a burger ? Where do I start? I went to Fatso’s on a Sunday night looking for something grubby and this is right around the corner from me. I thought, why not try it ? I could’ve skipped it in hindsight. I ordered 2 Single Fatso’s with cheese, fries and a shake. Simple, right? The first burger was pink inside. In general the burger Pattie’s were like sponges; squishy and wet. The buns were like dry sponges, used to hold it all in place. Despite all of the sauce spilling off of it there was no flavor at all! The burgers as a whole tasted like nothing. They do give you a generous amount of fries, but it’d be great if there were tasty burgers to go with them… Overall I am unimpressed. This was a waste of money and overall a let down to my burger cravings.
This place is legit some of the best Chicago street food you cannot get. Definitely top 5 street food places in the city. So the burger is like a summertime back yard remind you of youth kind of burger. It’s crispy and cheesy on a great bun. The hot dog is charred and crispy and a perfect Chicago style dog. Oh and don’t get me started in the shrimp or the Mac and cheese. That’s the power combo order.
Oh my god this char dog was so good. I’ve been to Chicago before and never had the chance to visit Fatso’s. I was able to make it in on a super rainy day. They were empty and I ordered a char dog with everything. The simple pleasure of enjoying this hot dog inside of this place is indescribable. It was so delicious and the employees were great.
The restaurant is definitely one of the best I have been to here in Chicago. It is not something fancy; it is more of a casual spot with a nice ambiance. The restaurant is clean inside and out, and I definitely like their outdoor seating, which also gives a nice vibe. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. Their menu, on the other hand, is huge and there is a variety of options and the prices are so cheap. I ordered a cheeseburger and fries. The food is cooked to order and that is why I had to wait for my food to be served, and I waited for about 20 minutes, which is fine for me and it is pretty quick too, considering that the place is busy and packed. The wait was definitely worth it because the food was fresh and hot. The portion of the burger is okay and the portion of the fries is generous. The fries are hand-cut and fresh-cut and are cooked to perfection. They are golden with a nice crunch and are perfectly seasoned. Their fries definitely do not need ketchup or anything because the fries as they are taste great. The cheeseburger, of course, is kind of greasy and tastes great. It tasted just like the usual burger, with a little difference when it comes to the flavor, but overall, it was delicious too.
This was definitely a great hole in the wall find! The restaurant itself has major history in the area and for good reason too! The burgers were thick and juicy, and the fries were the best! They were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside with the right amount of salt! The milkshakes were great too along with there cheesy mac and cheese that melted in your mouth. The area was nice too with outdoor seating looking at the nice architecture of the churches or city.
Love this place! The shrimp po'boy is amazing and their shakes are just as good. The guy behind the counter brought a lot of joy with the bell and it got a few laughs!
Typical Chicago fare, but with flair. Greasy goodness. We had the ooey gooey- too ooey for my blood.The tots and Fatso’s sauce were terrific. Veggie dog deep fried was great. Shake was just meh- I had the Reese’s and had to wait 20 minutes before the consistency allowed me to take a sip. Good experience overall!
Hands down to the best Chicago dog spot I know. This spot is in here for years and I never got tired of eating their food and visiting the place once in a while. Their food literally every single food in their menu is delicious and many would definitely agree. I just love this spot period. Who would not love it if they got good foods and amazing service. The staff in here is very friendly and accommodating. The staffs definitely keep the place that adds to its causal and cozy vibe. I remember the last time I went in here and I really had a good one even though a waited for a while before I was able to order because the place was a bit packed. Their Chicago dog is what I always got paired with their Reese’s milkshake. Also, it is my first time to try their Reese’s milkshake and I definitely liked it because it was so good and it is such a bomb! I highly recommend getting their Reese’s milkshake!
Me and my friends came here for some snacks since its break time in our office. Its near in our office work so no hassle to drive. There is a table outside so we sit in there. Some of my friends order our food so we wait them in the table. The after a couple of minute they came and they tell us that we wait for about 15 minutes because we ordered a lot. While were waiting we just talk to each other and looking at the street. After a minutes of waiting our order came. The food was good but some of them are not because of overcooked and burned so it tasted bitter. Don’t worry some of their food was yummy and delicious. You can try their burger since we like the taste of their burgers.
This place is really great! Fatso’s Last Stand is the best place to go if you are here in this area and looking for such a great place. Their place is very convenient. They are also very accessible, they are so near, and very easy to find. You will absolutely enjoy this place once you visit. They are very welcoming and relaxing. Perfect place to bring your family and friends. Fatso’s Last Stand is exceptional! All of their employees here are so professional, patient, cooperative and polite. They would talk to you properly and help you with your menu, even regarding about the place. I would always order their Cheese burgers, fried chicken and cheesy tater tots. I really recommend to give their food a try. You can literally try it all in such an affordable and fair price. You can save a lot here compared going to other food stores around the area. Fatso’s Last Stand a hidden gem here in this area of Chicago. I would really love to go back here and visit again soon when I am nearby. I really want to explore more of their food on the menu.
