We just moved to VC a couple months ago and really wanted to support this local restaurant. We've ordered burgers before and picked them up to take home and they were pretty good. This time we wanted to eat out and brought our daughter along with us. Sadly the food was just not good. The ribs weren't even edible, fish and chips were soggy and nasty .... My trip tip sandwich was at least edible and I ended up sharing w my husband. It will be a long time before we give it another shot.

Literally 6 or 7 entrees not available. Server says we are changing the menu then adds but they've been saying that for months. Out of vegetables even ! Ordered chicken tenders for lack of any other chicken item available, that came with a thimble full of beans and a terrible bowl of iceberg for approximately $25. The bill came to $40 before tip for a hamburger and tenders! Service was subpar. We've been going to Fats for 40 years, never again. Tommy Fat Ivor is rolling in his grave.

Delicious food at a reasonable price. I had all you can eat beef ribs, and my girlfriend had half chicken. Both dishes were tasty ?

Stopped in this little gem off of valley center road. Great friendly service. Bbq chicken was quite good. Not fancy but a nice place to grab a brew and a decent meal.

New owner not supplying restaurant with food that is on the menu. Multiple items not available and not posted on menu. Waitress had to check for availability as the ribs of which the restaurant is known to serve were completely out and unavailable as well. Spent almost a hundred dollars on uneatable food Dine at your own risk!

Quaint small town restaurant. Food was great and served quickly. Went for the burger but got the prime rib Instead. The cut was great and medium rare was perfect. Served with a salad and baked Potatoe. No issues with the service as they were very attentive and were very accommodating to request's after food was served.
