We stopped here on our way home from Toronto. The outside of the restaurant gives the vibe that this place is a place with the best food honestly. As soon as we walked in we knew this was going to be great! I ordered the pulled chicken with 2 sides. The Mac and cheese was AMAZING. There were 4 different barbecue sauces left on the table for us and they all were very good. Definitely recommend stopping here.

This place was just slightly above the average smokehouse bbq joints you'd go to, but it could just be a one bad off day. While food quality was good, the taste was not all there. The chicken wings tasted good but came cold to the table. Ribs were cooked well but the taste was just ok. Brisket was a let down and the sides were good. It was a mixed experience for the food and the service was on the slow side but that could be because we ordered quite a bit. It is in an alley way so parking can be tough on busy days but we found parking easily. The vibe is good and the restaurant was clean.

Excellent barbecue with unique sides. We sat at the bar which had great tv's for march madness, there is good spacing so we didn't feel cramped and didnt have a wait either. The pulled pork and chicken was moist while also haviny excellent flavor! The Mac and cheese had some unique herb flavor to it, and the coleslaw was not over sauced. I would definitely return again!

We had a nice meal here! No wait for a table, water was easy going, food was delicious. I personally had the nachos with pulled pork. Large portion and tasty.

I first heard about Fat Bob's a few years ago but it wasn't until I visited 42 North and had The Whole Farm Nachos (quite possibly the best nachos ever! ) that I visited the sit down, Buffalo location. I had the southern fried chicken (only on Sundays) hush puppies and collard greens, my wife had the ribs with Cole slaw and Mac salad. We also had the Texas Twinkie's (Cheese stuffed Jalapeños wrapped in bacon then cooked in the smoker) Every item was pure perfection and the best I've had in WNY! The service was excellent, the food TASTY and the rest rooms were clean. I have allready been there three or four times and plan on going back again soon!
