Fat City

Came in to order a to-go order. Probably the best BBQ I have had in New York state. I highly recommend the Brunt ends.

My go to order here is the Pulled Pork Platter. I normally get Mac and Cheese as my side and of course an extra side of corn bread. But I've tried a few different dishes and they are all good.

The only downside is that the dining area is quite small. Just a handful of tables by the front counter. So it can be a little cramped in here on a busy day.

Prices are reasonable for BBQ and their catering prices aren't terrible either.

I've been to plenty of bbq joints north and south of the mason dixon and this place is one of the best 👌. the fat daddy is my favorite, and the brisket on wick is to die for if you can catch it when it's on special... get some fat cty in your tummy tum

Small spot but a must stop. Best BBQ I've had in a very long time. Staff even checked on us to make sure food was good, i know kind of a normal thing to do but always nice. Was so good forgot to take a picture of it. Maybe the best Mac & Cheese I've had, maybe.

Amazing eatery!

Have been wanting to try this place for awhile, finally got a chance today.

Easy to get to, plenty of parking opportunities.

As soon as I opened the door, all I could smell was the delicious smoky scent of barbecue.

Small space inside, only two tables to eat at, but outdoor seating was also available.

Daily specials are posted, today happened to be smoked chicken wings, and a side cucumber salad was offered for an additional fee.

We ordered the Carolina Pork Platter and Pork Fat Platter with two sides.

The Carolina Pork Platter is dry rubbed, then wet mopped with a vinegar sauce, and comes topped with an apple slaw, which I wasn't sure about at first but ended up being a delicious combination! Slightly smoky pork (perfectly prepared in my opinion) with the crunchy slaw and a side of the vinegar mop comes with the plate as did a warm piece of cornbread.

Portion was ample, better than I expected.

We ordered the Pork Fat Platter with two sides- macaroni salad and baked beans.

I've had many macaroni salads in my day, and generally they are all about the same, but I liked this version better than most for some reason. Not sure exactly how it is prepared, but it had boiled egg, anneli pasta, and celery.

The baked beans were above and beyond the usually supplied dish that is offered by others. There were cooked peppers included, and a sprinkling of bacon bits on top. Very well done!!!

Staff was SUPER friendly, and accommodating.

Will definitely return again!!!

I moved to Central NY a few years ago and someone told me that the closest Kansas City-level BBQ place is in Kansas. I am originally from Kansas City with a high BBQ standard. This place exceeded my expectations! I have been looking for a BBQ place that can match my expectations. Today, I tried the burnt ends platter with mac and cheese and turkey collard greens, and they were absolutely delicious. The burnt ends were perfectly cooked, with just the right amount of smoky flavor, and the sides were the perfect complement to the dish. I also had the brisket sandwich, which was great as well, with cucumber salad (their special of the day). The meat was incredibly tender and flavorful, and the bun was so nice. Their BBQ sauces were so great. I tried both honey BBQ and apple BBQ sauces. This place is a hidden gem in a small town in NY. I can surely say this is a must visit when you are around the area.

The absolute best BBQ in the Finger Lakes.
They're burnt ends are second to none, their brisket is always tender juicy and delicious, and they're pulled pork is not to be missed. I have another barbecue restaurant less than two blocks from my house. I drive 15 miles to go to f
Fat City because the food, service and the people that work there are absolutely phenomenal.
Whether you are a local, or vacationing in the Finger Lakes, make the trip to Fat City BBQ, You definitely will not regret it.

Stopped by here on the way back from a road trip in the evening and had some of the best BBQ we have had in a long while. The burnt ends and brisket had so much great juicy flavour, the sauces were delish (vinegar mop is top tier!), and mac n cheese was cheesy. We even got a piece of cornbread which I wish I had space to get two more of!

Service was very attentive, and the dining area was small but allowed for a quick dine in meal. Highly recommend!

Heard good things so I had to check the place out. It’s small inside but incredibly clean! They clearly care about the quality of their food and establishment. The burnt ends and Mac and cheese I got were delicious, as well as the corn bread (it’s actually some of the best I’ve had!). Employees were polite, took my order quickly and got my food to me hot and fresh. Highly suggest this restaurant if you like good BBQ

There were only two tables inside, so this place is more for take-out. The menu is displayed on a large tv with current pricing (I think they're doing market pricing). We managed to be there at a time where the tables were empty, so we grabbed the 4 seater after ordering at the counter. The food came out and looked delicious! I ordered the pulled pork with apple coleslaw on top, corn bread that came wrapped in foil to keep it warm, and I got a side of turkey collard greens. My wife got sliced brisket and both our friends got ribs. The brisket and ribs were cooked to perfection, and unlike a lot of barbeque places, they came out with a dry rub, not slathered in a wet sauce. It was fantastic!

The man at the counter was very attentive, but not overbearing.

Go here! Just go!

I got the sampler platter. It's not on the menu but I guess they have been asked for it before because it is in the computer. It was smoked turkey, brisket and pulled pork with a side of brisket chili. It must of been good because I ordered sausage and burnt ends to go. They were a good midnight snack. My wife got the creamy cheese n mac with pulled pork. She liked that.

Everything I've tried has been excellent. The best burnt ends I've ever had. Sauces, slaw, chile, sandwiches and corn bread are all top notch as well.

Easily the best bbq restaurant in town. The restaurant is very clean. The staff and owner are very nice. Most importantly the food is fresh and taste so delicious, along with the dessert. I highly recommend stopping by and trying it out.

The brisket and burnt ends were excellent! And the staff were so kind! They took very good care of us. Will definitely stop back in while in town.

We saw the reviews on the place and had to try it. It was so tiny and cute, and the decor was exquisite, my favorite was the fat Mona Lisa! We got the brisket quesadilla, with cheese and mac, with some pulled pork. The pork was absolutely delicious, and the mac n cheese was heaven! My husband loved the quesadilla, we will definitely be back! They even gave us some corn bread on the house, the best I've ever had, 100% recommend!

I rate a BBQ place by it's brisket, and this place nails it! Perfect texture and buttery fat, it was delicious! The burnt ends were fantastic as well. The cornbread was light and fluffy, I devoured it We loved the BBQ beans and the chili sides. Mac and cheese wasnt bad but it wasn't anything to write home about... If I'm ever in the area again I will definetely stop in

This place has amazing BBQ. Everything in the menu is so good. The atmosphere and staff is great. When your done eating this amazing food make sure you get a slice of peanut butter pie. I had them cater my mom's birthday party on 7/29. Everyone there loved the food as well. 5 stars all day long.

Fat City catered our wedding for about 70 people. The entire experience was amazing. Everything ran smoothly and there was nothing to worry about day of. They were detailed oriented and made sure everything was well planned out for. Food was amazing and everyone talked so positively about their meals. Loved it and would absolutely recommend!

So lucky we stumbled on this place for lunch! I got the burnt ends and they are perfect! Tender, but still nice and smoky. All the sides were amazing, I got cornbread, mac and cheese, and collards. Never had collards prepared quite like them, so good. Prices are very reasonable for barbecue.

Super friendly staff, the restaurant was very cozy and had cute artwork and ugh, the food 😍 I got the fully dressed brisket sandwich. The brisket was melt in your mouth, the coleslaw was flavorful and crisp. and the combination of all the toppings was just heavenly. I also got a side of their cheese and mac and a slice of their honey cornbread. I think I've found my new religion! Everything was cooked to perfection. Definitely have found my new comfort food stop! ♥

A small and cozy place, really great food 💪 everything was delicious! The cornbread is really nice, Apple BBQ Sauce was amazing
And the meat and the side dishes were great and tasty 🚀 Highly recommended!
