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.

These are the best ribs I've ever had. Fat Matt's is a mandatory stop whenever I visit Atlanta, and I swear both the food and the experience get better every time.

I simply love the ribs. They are meaty, tender and fall off the bone.

Excellent ribs and sauce but the cost of the ribs is a bit high. The sides are pricey too and the portions are small. We usually come here for New Year's and Labor Day.
