Good burger but SLOW service not FAST FOOD!!!. This place has great burgers and milk shakes. The service is slow and so are the cooks. You place the order and pay then you get a number for the table and wait and wait.... The thing to note here is the wait is just that way it is and the food is good. If you want fast food then go to the other spots that have a drive thru. This place is more an experience. The juke box often is loaded already with Rap and R&B so you can pay to hear music but who knows how soon the selections happen to be played? Do tip a dollar just to hear the waiter hollar FAT TIP and then the stafff to hollar THANK YOU! And they mean it ... They really do appreciate the tips. They clean the tables so again not fast food ... they do have service like I said but it is just slow so going with that in mind you will have a good time. I always do!!!

Not Good. Not Good. Went to the Buckhead location. Place was a disorganized madhouse. Almost comical. After a LONG wait, got a dried up leather-burger. Don't understand the hype.

Horrible Service. The Burgers are cooked liked leather. The Atlanta one is very over-rated.

The Wait Staff just threw my food down and walked away. I guess I was not cool enough for the Hip Hop Crew. The only good thing was the fries. Don't waste your time at ATL Fatburger, go to the California ones.

Great burgers, poor value and service. The burgers are great here. However they are a bit pricey and one time I had to wait over 20 minutes to get my order. That is way too long for a fast food place even if they cook it after you order. The usual wait is about 5-10 minutes though

Cheap and tasty, Fatburger might just be the superhero of fast food.. The Scene
This is a fast-food joint all the way: Order at the counter and employees, sans headphones, bark the order to the fry cooks. Retro jukeboxes usually hold court in the middle of the restaurants, but are rarely used, since jazz and R&B are always piped in through speakers.

The Food
Sure, there's the grilled chicken sandwich and the chili dog, but other than that, it's all burgers. Wrapped in paper, served on plastic trays and dripping with toppings--mustard, mayo, relish, tomatoes, lettuce and onion--these burgers are definitely fat. Add cheese, bacon and a fried egg and you've got a hefty, cholesterol-laden treat. Or go the healthy route and order the turkey burger with everything; it's almost as good as the red-meat variety, and just as messy. Skip the ordinary fries and order a side of the fresh onion rings--the grease factor is low, and the crispy, golden batter is delicious.
