Came back for the first time in a few years and its still great. Chicken tenders are huge. The Cajun fried potato salad is the star of the show.

Finally went to this famous place. Mostly because their potato salad was highly recommended. Well I have to say i was not impressed. Way to much bacon so you really couldn't taste the potatoes. Chose the tex mex hamburger 🍔 I gave it an 7.5 it was not well done like asked. It was very noisy and extremely loud. It was nice having a free sample of whiskey though. I probably go back but during lunch hour and see if its better. The waitress was great. She was awesome. The wait time for 2 was about 15 -20 minutes tops. Yet the entrance was crazy. Long line and the area is not very big to fit all the people that were waiting to be seated. Overall it was ok.

Stopped here on a whim after an NIU soccer match. Wasn't expecting too much, but Fatty's definitely exceeded expectations. The service was fast and friendly, the menu was large without being overwhelming, and the portions were huge... all for a reasonable price.
Both the Huskie Burger and the Cubby Bleu chicken sandwich were delicious. And definitely opt for the potato salad side. You won't be disappointed.
Definitely worth the stop.

Very nice menu. Yummy food and a nice relaxing atmosphere. Love sitting outside when the weather is in your favor. Our go-to restaurant in DeKalb when we want to sit back and enjoy some really good food.
My wife loves the Cajun potato salad while I like the Windsor Fruit Salad. Highly recommended.

We ate here after we couldn't take the heat at the NIU FB game. My son's a freshman n heard the burgers were killer. They did not lie...the burgers were KILLER! Cooked to perfection, juicy, delicious. We had fries, delicious slightly seasoned, cooked perfect steak fries! I love good steak fries. Service was fast despite a shift change going on. Prices were comparible to Bar Louie or someplace similar. The decor is really beautiful. All carved wood with a huge wooden bar with carvings and a beautiful light fixture above the main bar. We really liked it and will definitely eat there again!

Went for the fish fry. Very generous portion of fish, huge fresh baked potatoes and a great side salad. $16 fish fry that I could have split with my wife. I’m a big fan and will be back!
