Referencing New York roots, but born out of LA, Fat Sal's offers outlandish Sandwiches, Shakes and Fries in a casual environment now slowly expanding to Sin City and additional major metropolitan areas.
Owned by friends Josh Stone and Sal Capek, with financial backing by Jerry Ferrara of HBO's "Entourage" since 2010, the group's first Las Vegas location recently debuted on Fremont in the midst of all the madness near the East end.
Debuted on 9/11/24, a soft-opening preceding, it is inside a shared space with rap blasting that guests are invited to choose overstuffed Shakes, Fries and overstuffed Sandwiches ranging from an $18 Fat Sal to the $99.99 Big Fat Fatty featuring thirty inches of Burgers, Steak, Pastrami, Bacon and more.
Open daily at 11:30am, till midnight on weekdays and 2:00am on weekends, service is friendly albeit new and Food comes out hot whether it be a Pizza Burger on its Potato Bun or the exceptional riff on a Bahn Mi using Ribeye with Onion Rings.
Less impressed by fried Potatoes, mostly limp even in areas not buried by toppings, fans of "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" may consider The Fat Jerry before ending their meal with a thick Milkshake or Fat Cookie that stuffs Chocolate Chip Dough with Red Velvet and Cream Cheese Frosting.
