While visiting Atlanta for my birthday a family member took me to Fatt Matt's and I tell you the food was was delicious. The ribs fell off the bone; the greens and macaroni & cheese was fabulous. The potato salad was Ok. My bill was $35.00 dollars and it was worth every cent. They also had a live band and they were pretty good!! All in all I suggest you go here, you will not be disappointed!!

their menu was very small. The sides weren’t that good the ribs were like a weird texture with a lot of bones. They gave me one random rib that looks half eaten on the side. I sat outside because it was kind of small inside and there was a swarm of flies around me trying to eat my food. I had to donate some of my bread because it was so many flies like more than a dozen

Prices have gone up for the little amount of food that you receive. But the food was still tasty. Had not had their food in a long time, so I gave into my cravings and was satisfied.

An absolute Atlanta staple. Fall-of-the-bone ribs with an old school, hole in the wall vibe and live music nearly every night.

Fat Matt’s Rib Shack – where BBQ sauce runs in their veins! Fall-off-the-bone ribs that’ll make you slap your mama (but don’t). Sweet tea so perfect it should be illegal. Pro tip: Get the ‘sopping wet’ option – napkins won’t save you, just embrace the mess.

A bunch of excellent people run this place. I cleaned up Pelham Road Park earlier for the ATL Urban Cleanup mission in which we just started. Two kind ladies allowed me to use their dumpster for the initiative. After I tried to pay for a drink and they let me get one without pay even when I tried to buy. Best Pepsi I've had.

I'll start out by saying that this is a hole-in-the-wall.... Which is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Order at the counter, they bring it to your table. Live music by a guy who knows his way around a guitar. It's a true southern bbq rib joint. I loved it.... Sweetwater Lager was a perfect complement.
