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.

Line out the door but it moved pretty quick but it's worth it! Menu is low key...a lot of sides to choose from. Ordered 1/2 rib rack and collards, all I can say is wow! Meat fallin' off the bone with flavor (dipping sauce optional, ribs great w/out), collards just the way I like with a little heat and lots of flavor. Live music?! Yes! Such a great addition, blues and BBQ.....nothing better. Last words: don't let this little unassuming place fool you, it's great!
From Texas so I know great BBQ, but this is definitely a close 2nd. If I ever am back the Atlanta way I'd eat here for sure
A most place you should visit,great barbecue,will return soon 👍👍
Ribs were full of fat. No flavor and my chicken was burnt couldn’t even eat it. Had to stop at McDonalds on the way home 😢
Food was great. Just wish the parking was better.
By far best ribs I’ve ever eaten in the past 60 years...!!!
The food was delicious!! And those collard greens....oooooweeee!!!
Food was great. Will be back for food and music. Great barbecue is an art form. They’re clearly artists. This was our first visit and we’ll be back when in the ATL. We would have purchased some BBQ sauce to take home. But it has HFCS. �. Great experience.
The food is excellent and the staff is great. I will return over and over again.
