Fat Cat Bar & Grill

Fat Cat is one of those unexpected awesome finds here in Reno. Located under another bar/restaurant, I feel like they get overlooked due to that and to a lot of construction around the building. Fat Cat is tucked away under Rue Bourbon but is one place you NEED to pop by if you haven't.

I've been in once before and loved it! I had a friend who wanted to go to a happy hour and Fat Cat was perfect for that! I arrived first and the place was a ghost town minus a bartender and a patron. When my friend arrived, the bartender was quick with a suggestion for us drink wise. We both got the 'Frisky Kitty'. This drink is dangerously delicious! I had two during happy hour.

As we settled in and started to peruse the menu, so many items sounded wonderful. I would easily go back to try more as the appetizers we tried were FABULOUS! My friend and I ended up with the highly recommended Mushroom Gorgonzola fries and the Buffalo Mac n Cheese balls. Both were very rich in flavor. After splitting the two, I felt like I had ordered a whole meal; you certainly get a lot of food!

The place had a pristine feel to it. There isn't much clutter and this feels like the perfect place to get away from the usual happy hour crowds. Even during dinner service, it still wasn't packed. If you're looking for a place off the beaten path to try, definitely make a stop in to Fat Cat. Both times the waitress/bartender (Aggie?) was there in the afternoon/evening. She greets you with a kind smile and is very welcoming.

Only downside of the stop was the music was just a little too loud.

I love love LOVE Fat Cat and hope to be in again soon!

Food was really good. Our server was super great. Cute place. We went on a Sunday night to meet friends. Oscars were on. Quiet enough to hear people talk.

This place is great! Great service! Awesome food. Lil more pricy then you’d expect but you get what you pay for. Locally sourced. Grass fed. Worth the visit. Will be back. Check it out!

I loved the blackened sandwich. It was recommended by another customer and I agree! Wonderful! The staff were attentive and cheerful. The 4 stars is ONLY because on a Thursday night it was VERY loud. I imagine that a full house would be deafening. I WILL go back- maybe on a Tuesday! ????

Road construction is finally done.
Now nothing can get in between the best burger in Nevada and our appetite!
Great atmosphere!
Great service!
Epic food!
