| - First let me say that I have been to Fat Heads more than a few times and I also used to have a roommate who used to work there as well. This review is based off my latest experience about a week ago, on a Thursday @ 8pm. I was with my girlfriend and another couple and there was a wait time of about 15 minutes. From past experience, the place is packed on the weekends, with waits up to two hours on Friday and Saturday peak times. The parking is also challenge with how busy the restaurant is as there is not enough spots to accommodate the guests.
We sat down and were greeted shortly after by our server. I was with 3 people who don't necessarily enjoy beer as they all tend to like wine or cider. I ordered a Headhunter IPA from there draft list and I must say this is one of my favorite beers of all time, just the right amount of hops. My girlfriend and her friend ordered a Bumble Berry beer, which in my opinion is wonderful during the summer time, too bad they didn't really enjoy it, oh well more for me! Lots of house brewed beers definitely make this place have an identity.
Our food was brought out shortly after we received our drinks. I split a chicken/artichoke spinach dip with flat breads that was awesome, great flavors and more than enough for 2 people. For our entrée, I got the honey barbeque REGULAR wings and the garlic parmesean REGULAR wings. I stress REGULAR wings as Fatheads is known for their SMOKEHOUSE wings, which I have had before. They're alright in my opinion but I prefer a more traditional chicken wing. The honey barbeque was up to par with your standard fare but the garlic parmesean were definitely a disappointment (it was as if they just rolled a chicken wing in parmesean cheese and served them, NO garlic taste at all), would NOT get these again. We did also order the appetizer onion rings that are FANTASTIC. They're large and breaded nicely and come with their "Killer" Ranch sauce (aka a spicy ranch).
The other couple we were with had a mushroom pizza (that was HUGE) and a buffalo chicken wrap. NOTE to people who haven't eaten here before, the BURGERS come with FRIES and the SANDWICHES come with CHIPS (both are the fries and chips are good, especially with the Killer Ranch) and you can't substitute. They also have TONS of crazy types of sandwiches and burgers, along with pizza, salads and burritos. Everyone can find something they like.
Our server was top notch, I'm sure he was happy that we were ordering drinks but he was attentive, made sure we had what we needed and got our bill to us right when we asked for it. I must say Fatheads is a good time for beers and greasy food and I would recommend if you have never been before. Although I would recommend heading there on a weeknight rather that the weekend to avoid the place when it's too busy. I would give a 3.5 but everyone knows how Yelp works so I'll give a 4 because of the beer selection is great.
