Fat Head’s in Pittsburgh isn’t just a burger joint—it’s a temple of meat and joy. I went for the ‘South Side Slopes’ burger, and I swear it was engineered in a lab to make cardiologists cry and grown adults weep with happiness. Juicy beef, a mountain of kielbasa, onions, and cheese so good it should have its own zip code. Come hungry, leave happy, and probably a little dizzy—but in the best way. Oh and Beer!!!!!!! Get u some.

Decided to give Fat Heads a try after seeing it in our Airbnb Hosts guide book. Arrived on a Tuesday night around 7:00 and was told there was a 45 minute wait for a table. While waiting the hostess took the time to walk us through the menu giving us alot of good suggestions. A table opened after only 15-20 minutes. Service at the bar was fast, and very friendly. All 3 of our dinner selections were excellent. There is also a very large selection of draft beers.
Miss the fried mushrooms but the fried cheeseballs are fantastic...and they give you a bunch!

I love fatheads so much. Their food and drinks are so good. I will say we are upset about the menu changes. We miss the onion rings (our favorite), fried pickles, fried mushrooms, ect. I honestly came here just for the apps many times.

Looks like the end is near. Here on a Saturday for lunch. Half the place is closed, the menu has been cut back severely. It's sad! Service was great, though!

Some pretty yummy food here for sure. My Pastrami and Brisket mixed Sandwich thing was on fire, and the homemade chips that came with it were great. Beer menu was excellent as well. Wife got a Brisket sandwich and Tots, they were cooked well. Would definitely go back.
Ate here twice on my last business trip as the headwiches (yes, that is the name, assuming because they are the size of a head) were so good and there were so many great ones to try. Friendly service, great food, and neat atmosphere. Definitely recommend giving a try, especially if you are a fan of Primanti Bros. This place gives them a run for their money.

We got to Fat Head's late evening on a Saturday. They had a super busy day and were out of some things. However, our server was great and made sure we knew before placing our orders. As someone who has Celiac, a sign at the counter was welcoming for those who must eat gluten free. We were told the owner has a family member with Celiac and takes it very seriously. She said they want those with gluten issues to not feel like they are left out, and I didn't. My burger with the brisket and a little kick was very good. The bun did not disappoint. And, how nice to actually get fries instead of having to pick some random side because they are cooked in grease with everything breaded. It was a hot day and I'd been hoping to find a good GF beer. Instead I tried the hard root beer. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. It was root beer with a little hit at the end. And it came in a mug with a good bit of froth on top. I hadn't been to Fat Head's in a long time. Other than distance from us I don't know why. We will be back!!

Fathead beers are generally superior. Service not so much at this one since they barely paid any attention after the first beer.
