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.

Fat Matt's is a true gem! Took friends there before a recent concert and they are still raving about the deliciousness of the food! I love this place! Great wait staff and servers, always cool music venue for blues!

Hands down the best ribs (and sauce) I've ever tasted. I might have to immigrate just so I can have it again
