Great food and atmosphere. Will definitely return when I'm passing through. The staff was friendly and I enjoyed the ambiance. Thanks for taking good care of me and my family.

Enjoyed my salmon, which was tasty and cooked perfectly. But I'm deducting a star for my daughter's very dry citrus chicken. Like that they have some healthy options, overall a nice menu with something for everyone.

Been here twice when I was here twice. Nothing less than awesome! Got the endless ribs with bbq corn on the cob and was not disappointed! Right next to the Hampton and Quality Inns and so delicious! A must eat in Greeneville!

I'm not from around here - California, to be exact - but I absolutely loved the food here. My mom and I came during lunch and I got the lunch special with tomato soup and a baked sweet potato. The portions were great and it was delicious, especially for the price. If I'm ever back in Greeneville, I'll be sure to return!

Fats is one of the better restaurant I have had the chance to eat at. The chicken strips are the best I have ever had and the rolls are awesome. This place should make Greeneville very proud. The service was excellent, as good or better than a lot of high end restaurants.

Need I say nothing more than I am not only full but my tastebuds are in Heaven! Calabash Chicken is extremely scrumptious and the sesame seed bread was mouth watering delicious! Order the peach cobbler with ice cream and be ready to slide out of your seat because your tastebuds will be in for a ride of their lives! Ask for Zack and he will definitely attend to your every food requirements. Thanks again, Tammy! DELICIOUS!!

Based on Yelp reviews we went to Fatz for dinner in Greeneville. The waiter was great with lots of personality. The service was excellent. The highly recommended Calabash chicken was fine, but honestly I didn't taste a significant difference from other chicken. The salad was not memorable. The poppyseed rolls were tasty and I think my husband's Parmesan chicken pasta was a good choice. I'd go again try another selection. At this point I can't be as enthusiastic as other reviewers.

One of the better restaurants in the area in terms of food quality and service. As a first timer, you get to try their world famous calabash chicken which is amazingly good and you also get to sample their peach cobbler. The rest of the menu has just your basic chain restaurant options but there is something for everyone. I'd personally stay away from the healthy options, as they had no flavor, but everything else seemed pretty good. I forgot to mention their poppy seed biscuits and sweet butter. They are too good not to mention and you can't eat just one.

Working in Greeneville, TN this week when the cold snap hit. For lunch we wanted something warm like soup. Yelp led us to Fatz. It might be a chain...it felt like a chain but I'd never heard of it before. In any event, it seemed like your basic American fare restaurant...kind of like O'Charley's, you get the idea. They had 3 soup choices that day and I went with the Tuscan Tomato and it was delicious and filled the need for warm comfort food on a cold day just fine. I was going to order a cobb salad as well but the waiter was a good salesperson and convinced me to try the Calabash Chicken Salad. Turns out, Calabash means fried...but the chicken was really good and juicy. I asked them to leave off the three kinds of cheese listed in the salad's description and to sub them with avocado. Lunch was good and gotta give the waiter props for actually being invested in his job. I'll probably visit again in a couple weeks when I'm back in town.

Sat at the bar at 6:43. I was the 10th person. I was greeted by a woman with a menu and a "Here you go." 2 minutes later. 6:48 she took my drink order. At 6:52 she took my order. While waiting for my food the people next to me gave a card to pay for their food. It was over 5 minutes before she returned with the card and not because there were problems. They still had their dirty plates in from of them. I received bread at 7:08. I got my food at 7:11. 7:13 she finally cleared dirty dishes next to me... 4 minutes after they left and over 10 minutes after they paid. The Aloha chicken and rice was a little dry. At 7:16 she greeted a new guy next to me with a "Hey how are you?" When she got his drink she introduced herself... Sonya. It was the first time I heard her name. She cleared my dishes soon after I finished, offered a dessert, and gave me my check promptly. In her defense it appeared that she had 3 tables too. This happened in Feb 2011.

The food here tastes good, but it is on the expensive side. As there aren't that many places in Greeneville, you can count on this one to be crowded, especially on weekends.

Traveling through Greeneville & wasn't expecting much when we pulled in, but was I wrong! They do have plenty of the fried, unhealthy fare this area, apparently, requires BUT they had plenty of healthy choices, too. Fresh spinach salad with fish was great & I had baked sweet potato for dessert. ;) And the service was amazing! So attentive & eager to please. Marissa went out of her way to make us happy. Never heard of poppyseed biscuits, but they taste like donuts!? Tried to eat just one. ;)

Decor seemed a bit confusing as the place is trying to be southern, but not too southern. This blends into the food as well, but the food was good. They had so many servers on a Saturday night it seemed half of them could have gone home, but the service we had was awesome. The steak was a bit undercooked, but was seasoned well. Grits were a bit too mushy, but again the taste was good. The tybee island tea was good and the onion straw appetizer was huge. Overall, I liked this place and would come again.

FATZ is your basic chain restaurant with the basic fixings. The have great "WORLD FAMOUS CALABASH CHICKEN". Other than that they are your basic chain restaurant. They don't have them in my home state so I still visit them on my trips down south.

Fatz is a decent place for rich tasting food. I only went here because it was right next to the Hampton Inn while on a business trip. It was convenient. It reminded me of an overly expensive Chili's. I ate at the bar and the service was slow. The bartender wasn't that busy, but he was slow to serve anyone. I had the shrimp dinner and it was good. The shrimp was tasty, but the rice was blah. I had a beer and glass of wine with dessert. I had the brownie sundae for dessert and it was very good, but a bit rich for my T-buds. The prices were quite higher than expected.
