About this business
Delicious barbecue and mesmerizing music have combined to make this Midtown spot a local legend. Patrons queue up for a dozen yards outside the door eager to sample their award-winning ribs, and it is well worth the wait. Opt for their ribs slab or pork sandwich with Brunswick stew and collard greens washed down with a chilled beer. Don't leave without a bottle of Fat Matt's secret sauce so you can try their pit-roasted wonders at home. Some of the best local blues bands perform here nightly for your dining enjoyment.

When i thought it couldn't get better the music grabbed me by the feet and I just sat there bleeding my soul to the rhythm of blues
Another amazing experience! Brought my boss with me this time and she absolutely loved it! After dinning in we both did take out too for our families at home who also really loved it too! Keep up the great job with the BBQ! We will back for sure since we don't live that far!
Was in Atlanta for the weekend, got told this place was #25 of the top 100 bbq spots in the country....that may have heightened my expectations a bit but the food didn't impress me. I had ribs in Charlotte Nc last month, Norfolk Va the month before as well as other spots around the country...I left unimpressed.
I had a great experience, service was great and food was excellent
Great little blues Rib joint. This is our 2nd year as a New Year tradition. Love this place
We have been going there for 20 years and love it! Yesterday was no exception. The food, sweet tea, and service were great as always. New to Atlanta? Fat Matt's is THE place to go for ribs!
Great flavor, cooked perfectly- tender but not falling apart. Great service. I get there at every opportunity
best BBQ in Atlanta. we had the pork sandwich with chips, coke slaw, and brownie for dessert.
I'm not sure why some folks on here thought the food was overpriced and small portions...weird. We visited Atlanta this weekend and choose this place for a casual dinner. It was delicious. The ribs are great but the chicken is out of this world. Collared greens, baked beans, mac and cheese...all great. The staff we encountered were very friendly. We will return again on our next visit. It's small place but worth it...give it a try, but know they only have Ribs and Chicken as the meats. But they do them right! �YUM!
