Reviews for Fatbird in South Bend, IN
For a while now, I’ve heard about how good this place was. Finally, I had the opportunity to try it and it did not... disappoint. Everything is super delicious and bursting with flavor. It might not be the healthiest meal of your week but itwill definitely be one of the best. I was particularly surprised at how much I enjoyed the addition of salami to the Cubansandwich. It adds a little kick that really works. I will definitely be back in the future. Read more
Summary: Eclectic place that made some... choices. But it all comes together for a good experience, friendly service, unique... atmosphere, and housemade food. Came here looking for something local. Came in just for food, not drinks. Husband and I got theonion dip and both ordered chicken sandwiches. He had the OG and I had the Nashville. You can tell everything is house made andserved on dishware that looks like it was donated by 8 different grandmas who never met. Nevertheless, the dip was tasty and thesandwiches were really good. They didn't shy away from spice on the Nashville hot. Leaves a good tingle, so have waterready! The mac and cheese was a bit odd. Husband is adamant it was more "cheese pasta with a Cheetoh crumble." Tasted finethough. Potato salad didn't have as much mustard in the base if that matters to you. All this with a steady background of 1990ship-hop. Read more
The chicken sandwiches are terrific! The chicken was tender and most. My wife had the Murica with potato salad. She loved the... potato salad! My son and daughter had the kids hamburger and they said it was one of the best they have had. I got the Nashvillechicken sandwich, it was so good. It has some heat, but not too much. We got two biscuits and they did not last long. They weredelicious! Read more
Ordered a 1/2 chicken plate for take out. The chicken was super juicy, tender, and flavorful, highly recommended. I asked for... the Nashville Hot sauce on the side and it is really good; sweet, spicy, salty, and butter goodness. The homemade coleslaw wasalso very good but don’t get it if you dislike raw onions.

I found Fatbird a nice St. Paddy's evening alternative to a rowdy Irish joint while walking around reading local restaurants'... menus. I'm a fan of fried edamame in small doses so the app was a bit much for one, and had I known how good the green beanswere, I would have ordered *that* as an app in addition to the accompanying sandwich side! The OG was incredible; dill lettuceprovided subtle complexity to the tender and perfectly-breaded chicken. The ratios in the sandwich were perfect. But the greenbeans. Oh man. Mildly spicy with smoky bacon and chopped onions and cooked to be nice and tender. Those are worth a trip backalone! Read more
Finally got to try this place with my wife and a couple of her coworkers. Glad to see a familiar face in Tyler the bearded... bartender. I went with the appetizer wings sauced in Carolina Gold (my absolute favorite) and they didn't disappoint. No barbeverage for me this time since we were on a tight budget but we definitely want to come back again! Strongly recommend! Read more
????????????very tasty chicken. The fried chicken in the Nashville sandwhich and the chicken and waffles is quality: the coating... is crispy, salty, and tasty and the meat inside is very well cooked and juicy. The chicken was the highlight of the dishes. Thewatermelon was a refreshing addition to the chicken and waffles. The restaurant was busy and there was a wait for food but thiswas a Sunday after a game day so this was expected The reason I’m giving Fatbird a 4 instead of 5 stars is because I thinkthe supporting foods with the chicken can be better. The skillet cornbread came out barely warm and cooled quickly so it was drywhen I eat it. The waffles were also dry and I feel that more maple sauce is needed for both the waffles and chicken Read more
So happy we stopped here! The best part? All of our food was delicious. It tasted fresh and had a homemade feel to it. We got... fried chicken, mac & cheese, Cuban sandwich, potato salad, baked beans, jambalaya, mashed potatoes and thewaffles/chicken/watermelon dishes. Each dish came with a side and there wasn’t anything we didn’t like. I also enjoyed mypeach tea and our waitress was so nice. The worst part? Honestly, can’t add much. They didn’t have a parking lot it wefound street parking not too far. Stop by if you can! No breakfast by the way. Read more
