Why Travelers Love Fat Cats
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
We ordered a chicken burger here, and overall the presentation was nice, it looked like a big, hearty meal and came well served. The portion size was generous and filling, which I really appreciated. However, the main issue was with the taste. The chicken was cooked properly, but it had no seasoning or spices at all, which made it quite plain. With just a bit more flavor, it could have been a great burger. The place itself was clean and the service was fine, but the food definitely needs some improvement in terms of taste and seasoning. If they add a little more attention to flavor, it could easily become a great spot for a quick meal. Avocado toast worth buying. The pancakes were also pretty good and fluffy served with a fresh fruit compote. However, I needed more butter and at corn syrup of not maple syrup. The yogurt is not enough to keep the pancake moist. The service is a bit slow, and I might add not attentive, which is common on the island anyway. Not sure where the name comes from, but there is no fat cat roaming around. We had a lovely meal here. The atmosphere was nice and chilled on the beach. The staff were really lovely. Olani was very helpful in showing me what the gluten free options were. We really enjoyed our meal and drinks!

We had beef teriyaki and grilled tuna rice bowl. Also a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc. They were all okay, the restaurant is reasonably priced and directly by the nice beach.
