| - I just came back from Fat Cats on a wintry March night. It was pretty quiet in there because of a snowstorm, so we were able to sit easily without the reservation I had called in. It's a pretty cool set-up -- a converted house with a bar at the front and two nice back rooms with fantastic views of downtown Cleveland that looked great at night (all the skyscrapers were lit up).
Our server was very friendly and helpful. She was definitely on top of refilling our drinks. We thought it was pretty funny, though, that they only gave us one slice of bread at a time, and then replaced it, instead of giving us a basket. It was a good thing though, because we would have eaten much more with the olive, vinegar, mushroom concoction that came with the bread, which was fantastic.
We both had the Angus burger with pommes frites. Fantastic portion and fantastic flavor. The dessert was a banana nut bread pudding with peanut butter and chocolate sauce and ice cream, and it was delectable.
Overall, between the ambience, waitstaff, and food, this is a place I'd heartily recommend. It's a tad pricier than what you might expect for American cuisine, but imo it's worth it.
