I do not live in the area so when I found myself getting my hair done right up the road, I was unsure where to go. One of the girls at the salon suggested Phat Burrito and being the burrito lover that...

I have eaten at Phat Burrito well over a dozen times and taken many people there. The context is usually prior to a Panther's game, as an easy and tasty tailgtaing alternative. I always get the same...

I got the fish taco, and it was great! However, I would hesitate to recommend this place because of the terrible service. It was 2pm when I went in so it wasn't crowded, yet the workers acted like I was an...

I have a special place in my heart for Phat Burrito - it was here before Chipotle, Qdoba and Salasarita's took over town. The burritos are large and delicious - the chicken has fantastic flavor. The brownies...

Phat Burrito's burritos are just that: Phat. And, depending on how you order them, they're Fat too. And really, there's no reason to order anything else. Choose from BBQ Chicken, Steak, Chicken, Fish...

This is one of Charlotte's legendary 'hole in the wall' restaurants. The burritos are some of the best. Take mints for afterwards :)

I really don't know what to write about this place. It's OK, certainly not bad, but nothing amazing either. It's a very middle of the road burrito. For Charlotte, I suppose it's quite good, but Charlotte has...

Phat Burrito is right outside of uptown and is pretty similar to the other burrito spots such as Johnny Burrito and Salsaritas. I order mine without the tortilla, and again, ingredients are pretty fresh and...

BBQ Chicken burrito or quesadilla is the ONLY way to go. Great food. VERY fresh. Cheap, & you even get to listen to reggae music while you eat. Portions will leave you in "nap mode".

The beef burrito was okay. The portion was great (really big). I didn't really like the beef, it's more of the braised cheaper beef. I would go back; but, I think I will try something else.
