“ The Strip was easily in the top 3 best steaks I have ever eaten. The onion rings were delicious and could have been a meal in itself. ”
“ I was at fat chef last night for a date night with my wife. We had heard about the fat chef and were wondering if it was worth the 40 minute drive. Short Answer: Absolutely! Long Answer: Everything was a perfect. Service was phenomenal! Wine selection was good as well. The food was amazing! There cooked the steaks perfectly which is hard to come by now days. The sides were delicious! The environment was perfect for the occasion. Christine was right there checking on us, asking how our meal was, and chatting about life & kids. Truly a great experience. If you are wondering if it is worth the drive, yes it is! Go check them out! ”
“ Great steaks! Delicious sides and desserts all made by the owners. Our family celebrated a birthday here for dinner. Expensive but worth it! Fine dining with a fancy menu, and choices. The interior is a bit rustic. Table and chairs detract from the fine dining experience as they are not good quality but the food makes up for it. The only downside to our meal was a rubbery lobster tail. Otherwise the food was pretty amazing and the service was good. In house desserts to die for. ”
“ Most amazing food and service. Went on a Tuesday evening and had no trouble getting in. I had the fresh made lemonade to drink and we started out with the stuffed mushrooms and were very pleased, what a great start. The house salad, Ceasar salad and homemade bread were very good. Turns out it was Prime Rib night. My wife had a standard queen cut, 12 oz medium and it was perfect. I asked if they had an end cut as I really enjoy the crust's flavor and they did. It was fantastic, closer to well done since it was the end cut, but great flavor and still tender. The sweet potato and mushrooms were great, as was the root vegetable compote and the battered fries. We didn't do dessert, but will have to come back one evening to do so just for a treat. ”

“ You get what you pay for so if you're looking for an AMAZING experience and service check this place out! We have never had such fantastic service as we did here.
