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.

The food was very good even though they got my order wrong I called and was told that they would replace my order so it was a very nice visit.

The food is awesome! Service is great, I couldn’t believe it was a line around the building waiting for this place to open on the 4th of July. It was worth the wait.
