The Fat Cat

"It is a tradition for my brother and I to have a meal at The Fat Cat whenever I visit Quincy. I love their burgers and local draft beer. They moved to a new location on Hancock St.. When compared to the prior location, The Old Fat Cat had more character and an atmosphere like your friendly local pub and restaurant where you go to see buddies for some beers. This is the reason for the 3 stars rating for the atmosphere. The food and service were excellent, and good value too. We ordered the mussels with basil & coconut broth, burger, and a pastrami sandwich. I opted out of the fries for a very generous platter of Caesar salad. We washed the burger and sandwich with some IPA beers. Excellent meal with consistent quality and good service after so many years."

"Always a great place for comfort food and good drinks, you gotta try the Lobster Mac and Cheese the best around. Always busy so be ready to wait, or you can order to go! Update update, New location and its nice never had to wait for a table and the bar is nice. A few new things on the menu but it's all good and the service is always good love it."

"Leaving these type of food reviews food is always hard when the service is great. We got the Nachos with Lobster and Crab. The protein tasted as if it was fresh out of the can and not properly washed and seasoned. The avocado was hard, the cheese and chips made it feel like it had been redone after sitting out. This made us refrain from ordering an entree (we're pescatarian) and so we got a small order of fries. Which came out super fast and worried us. We were disappointed after the very first bite. They were oily and unsalted. The cocktails on the other hand were really good. It was undoubtedly the highlight of our night. I really appreciated the way the "El Gato Grando" was made. Flavor of the alcohol isn't drawn out of the mix and they weren't overly sweeten. I would return for those drinks, those bartenders are good at their craft. I heard their pasta is good so I'll definitely return to give that a shot and update my review then."

"It slaps. Been here twice and liked everything we ordered. Friendly service and enormous portions. Expect to pay a few extra bucks per item (especially the drinks), but you'll get your money's worth in flavor and leftovers (entrees specifically). The fried calamari with jalapenos is the best calamari I've had. The haddock chowder comes loaded with bacon. Still reminiscing about the pasta. Overall, expect American comfort food with a flavorful twist."

"Great experience and a great meal overall. We went on a Tuesday night and they weren't overly busy. We were seated quickly and the waitress (who was on her game the whole meal) came over right away with drinks and menus. Our order was put in just as fast and the food came out surprisingly faster. We ordered 4 burgers and the Fat Cat Mac and Cheese. The burgers were cooked perfect and actually had burger taste to them (like some guy was in the back grilling on a legit barbecue). The Mac and Cheese was huge (I NEVER take food home and there was enough left over for a second meal) and definitely worth a try. Price wise we were pleasantly surprised to see relatively cheap and reasonable prices for everything on the menu especially compared to the area. Service wise our waitress kept our waters filled the whole meal (simple yet often overlooked) and checked in a bunch to make sure we were taken care of. Additionally one of the chefs (I'm guessing) brought our food out and had the look of someone who knew how to run a good kitchen. Overall it was a great meal, with great service and was priced very reasonably. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone in the area."

"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."

"We found this place on google maps as we left Boston airport and headed to Cape Cod. We ordered 3 appetizers and 2 entrees Fried Pickles: hot and tasty. Onion haystack: lightly breaded and crispy. Fried Calamari: Extremely tender and served with cherry peppers. Lobster macaroni and cheese Made with an excellent 4 cheese sauce and lots of chunks of lobster meat Lobster and crab wrap This place has excellent service and ultimate attention to detail. I highly recommend it"
