Was passing thru indy and found good reviews for this place! family had a burger and italian beef sandwich and the food was perfect. grew up near chicago with portillos and found their italian beef to be exceptional! customers seem to really love this place as well. heads up tho it’s more of a bar type restaurant with sports on the big scene. with nfl in full swing be prepared for a semi loud atmosphere ?but still very fun. so sit back relax and have fun ?

Rude waitress did it for me. Live 5 min from mass ave and love to frequent but will not be coming back. Have some patience with your patrons please. If I have questions, a nasty tone is not going to make me want to come pick up food from you. You don’t have wing options on your website so please don’t get nasty with me when I have questions. Check your facts before you go off on customers. Will not be coming back

Normally I have a favorite on the menu that I always order, but I can't do that at Fat Dan's because the entire menu is awesome

Stopped for lunch while in Indy for an appointment. It was a random search that found this gem. Not very big, tables and bar rail seating. Started with the Beer Cheese Fries and the didnt disappoint. Best beer cheese I have had outside of Wisconsin. I ordered the Smoked Corn Beef and Pastrami sandwich and my friend gor the wings. Reviews raved about the wings which are smoked then served with your choice of dipping sauce. Clearly people know their wings as these were certainly top notch. But the Corn Beef & Pastrami......I don't know if I will ever be able to top that one!!!!! Both meats were smoked before being hand sliced and stacked high. Served on a sourdough rye bread that was soft on the inside and crispy crust. I only ate half and and brought the other half home. One thing I might add would be saurkraut and a bit on 1000 Island dressing but it was definitely spot on without that!!!! Gabriel was the only server and did a great job. The bartender stepped out a few times to help out and she was very pleasant as well. Everything was served carried out on butcher paper which was interesting to watch. Would have been great to see a larger party served that way but it was a quiet afternoon. Would definitely go back again.

Warm friendly environment type feel. Ordered the chicago combo sub. Had italian sausage and shaved beef . Excellent veggies and peppers and aju to pour over bread making it soggylicious . Haven't eaten a lot of this sort of subs so I'm not fluent in reviewing them compared to others. But for less than 15 bucks it was worth the stop .

I had the wings. They were OK, but not great as I was expecting from the reviews. Didn’t taste fresh and actually the bone of the wing was ice cold, as if it was frozen and then reheated before serving. Not a good sign. Service was very friendly though

We stopped in for dinner. It was raining but we were able to sit outside under an over hang at a table and stayed dry.

The food and service was good. I was a bit overwhelmed by the menu, so I asked the server and he pointed me in a few directions.

The portions are huge, and pictures don't do it justice. I got the Fat Havana, which I thought was going to be a Cuban Sandwich, it was a Cuban Sandwich on a Hamburger! It was delicious! The chips were just a waste of space on the side, and didn't really need them, a good cup of slaw would've hit much harder!

My buddy got the Dirty Tots, the other got the Ribs, with a side of Tots/Fries combo.

I'd say we could've picked 2 things and shared among 4 people pretty easily the portions were Huge!

Kid-friendliness: Kids would be welcome here, and the food would be right up their alley.

Wheelchair accessibility: Pretty easy to get around inside, the bathrooms were a bit on the small side.

Good Italian Beefs and a small order of fries easily can feed three people. Cool Chicago themed atmosphere.

Good eats here. Usually busy but worth the money for sure. Loaded tots are fire!!!! Good smoked wings portions are good as well. Parking is a pain sometimes because if the location in the city. Good customer service never had bad experience here. 5 stars.

Just WOW!!!!! I had their chicken cutlet sandwich, no seasoning and I wish I lived closer to get another one.

I mean the flavor was on point. The chicken was cooked perfectly. The whole sandwich was just perfection. 10/10 recommended.

I did like their chips (that comes with the sandwich).

I personally was not a huge fan of their fries because I prefer crinkle cut or curly but that’s very personal. The flavor was great tho.

If you’re reading this — don’t think twice. Stop by. It’s worth it.
