Opinions de Fat Sal's Encino
Jose and Dora Liz were fantastic. They took are order and helped us with the food selection. The food was delicious. I love their customer service. I don't know how this place got a 4.3 stars. I will definitely be back.
First time coming here and not only is the food amazing but the customer service isalso! Dora Liz and Jose are the best!
We love Fat Sal's. We go there for smash burgers mostly. I definitely haven't eaten every one, but of all the smash burgers I've had all over the city, Fat Sal's is to me the best. Lacey and crispy around the edge, American cheese as God intended on a smashburger, good bun and you can add lettuce and tomato if you want. Sometimes we'll get a loaded side of fries as well. The menu is full of delicious sounding, but a little over the top combinations of things piled up on a smashburger or a sandwich. I'd love to try them, but the regular smashburger is so delicious. They have a pastrami smashburger on the menu, but it has chicken tenders and a bunch of other stuff on it as well. I don't want all of that, I want a smashburger with griddled pastrami added to it, maybe some Swiss. The regular smashburger, maybe with an extra Patty added is the go-to for both of us. The staff working there all knows and recognizes us. They're very friendly, and very customer service oriented. They always want to make sure we have everything we need and that we're taken care of, they'll swing by the counter where we're eating to see if we need any more ketchup, napkins, etc. It's really next-level service for this kind of a fast casual. Lots of TVs up high on the walls showing whatever sports is on, plus a Fat Sal's Venice Beach skater video running on a loop. Recommend if you like a delicious smashburger in a cool low-key environment with great service. And who doesn't?
10/10 everything!!! The fat Jake shake & sandwich were both incredible!!
08/06/2025 This is the 3rd time I ate their sandwiches, twice here and once in the "Topanga Social" location (where I tried their sandwiches for the second time around). Their sandwiches are so good, service was great, and the location is in Ventura blvd and Balboa which is a rich and clean area. They're also open till past midnight (2:00 a.m.) so that's a plus! Update: 08/08/2025 I came back this afternoon from Glendale to try their milkshakes and I ordered "#1" Chocolate ice cream, peanut butter, marshmallow fluff, roasted peanuts, and sea salt. It was the best milkshake I've ever tried, making Denny's "chocolate shake" on the 2nd and Jamba juice's "Chocolate mood". on the 3rd rank on my top three best milk shakes "list".
José the employee was very nice , really good costumer service . It was my family first time here at fat sal’s and he helped us and recommended some sandwiches and he was fluent so he was so helpful !! Thank you Jose !
Hands down the best sandwiches and burgers in LA. Been here thrice in the last 3 weeks on our 5 week trip and we definitely will be back for more next week! The pastrammi is to die for! Craving those onion rings too!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the pleasure of dining at Fat Sal's, and it was an unforgettable experience! I ordered the "Fat Jerry" sandwich, which is a glorious masterpiece packed with ribeye steak, chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks, a fried egg, crisp bacon, grilled onions, melted American cheese, and fries. Each bite was a delightful explosion of flavors, and it truly lived up to the hype. The atmosphere of the restaurant is incredibly cool, with a great design that perfectly complements the laid-back vibe. It's the kind of place where you can easily relax with friends or enjoy a casual meal after a long day. While I did find the prices to be a bit on the high side, I can assure you that the food is absolutely worth every penny. The quality and taste are simply outstanding! The staff were also fantastic—super friendly and helpful, making the whole experience even better. If you're looking for delicious food in a fun setting, look no further than Fat Sal's. I can't wait to go back and try more of their amazing menu!
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Fat Sal's, after years and I can't say enough good things about my experience. The **food** was absolutely fantastic! Each dish was bursting with flavor, and the portions were generous—perfect for satisfying any appetite. From their signature sandwiches to the delicious sides, everything was prepared to perfection. The **customer service** was equally impressive. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care about making our visit enjoyable. They were quick to answer questions and made great recommendations. As for the ambiance, the place itself is nice and inviting, creating a perfect atmosphere for a casual meal with friends or family. In one word: **everything was great**! I highly recommend Fat Sal's to anyone looking for a delicious meal and a wonderful dining experience.
If you've never been here before, you've got to go. This is a sandwich shop on overload. In some sandwiches, they put whole mozzarella sticks in, and in others, french fries, Etc. I enjoyed their Fat Bahn-Miki. They also sell Fun desserts like red velvet and chocolate cookies. I don't drink soda normally, but they have one of those machines where you can customize your drink, so I had to make myself a lime ginger ale. The staff was super helpful, especially when it came to allergies. And the girl who rang me out had a fantastic smile. - #DowDoesReviews @derekddow on all socials.
Man those are some filling sandwiches! The name of the restaurant is appropriate in this instance lol. Quite a great variety of choices too so there will be something for everyone here. There are new special sandwiches for the month often too.
Fat Sal's is great!! Such a nice big menu with plenty of delicious options! The portions are nice and big, everything is made fresh to order, and the shakes are a MUST try! The outdoor seating is amazing even on a warm/hot day because they have misters that help cool down the entire area but do not make anything feel wet or musty. They have outdoor tvs and they show the games which is great! The staff is great and they keep the entire restaurant nice and clean!
Fat Jerry / thin sliced ribeye steak, grilled onion, melted American, chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks, crisp bacon, fried egg, fries, mayo, ketchup, salt & pepper on a hero - 5 🌟! Yes. All of that is on one sandwich and it is glorious. I have been a fan of Fat Sal's since they first opened in Encino. I live close to their Hollywood location but was out near their og location and felt a craving. I visit a few times a year and once even day dreamed about opening a franchise when I loved really far from a Fat Sal's. They have amazing burgers and smothered fries but I tend to grab their loaded heroes. They often have great limited time sandwiches and shakes which are worth checking out. Also, this is a Halloween tradition for me since they love to do an entire costume theme for their Hollywood location including a fully themed menu. My advice is to go in person and scarf it down as soon as they hand it to you. Freshly made is the way to go.
This place is super yummy. Pretty much anything you get is going to be good, and the staff is really friendly. I had the albacore salad and cheese fries, and it was so delicious. I also had the #3 shake, which comes with vanilla ice cream, shaved chocolate, toasted marshmallow, and graham cracker crumbs. Sooo yummy!! It can get really busy here, so I would suggest calling your order in, and then picking it up.
First time here, I'd heard a lot of great things about this place. I was super excited to try the sandwiches and the shakes!! I will definitely be coming back here! They have beautiful indoor/outdoor seating...meaning they have french door type and they open them, so it's like you are eating out side. Also it's loud they have sports playing on all televisions that cover all walls. so if you're looking for something romantic this would not be the place. But for a quick delicious bite and if you want to watch a game this place would be perfect. Hope to see you here :)

Super nice folks working there. Solid food, cleaning dining room, vegan options, and they even have beer.
Food excellent. Service fantastic. ambiance fun . Will highly recommend this place . My wife had the best veggie sandwich in her life . She's telling everyone.
After hearing so much about Fat Sal, I was finally able to try it out. Great Sandwiches, all filled to the brim with toppings. We got the Fat Sal, Fat Texas and Philly Cheese Steak. My personal fave is the Fat Texas, best out of the three. The Fat Sal comes with a side of gravy that is used as a dip which was also good. The Philly Cheese was nothing special, it was dry and overly salted.
I tried out the hamburger combo with the onion rings and paid almost $20 (normal beach prices). Good portion of onion rings, which were not freshly made, but still warm. The burger was a grilled patty on a plain bun--not bad, but not outstanding. I'd try the sandwiches. They do have a freestyle soda machine, so you can mix up your own flavor, which is a plus. Service is cheerful and quick, and the interior is tidy. They do serve a few beers/Truly. There are big screen TVs that I'm sure you can watch the game/fight on.
Great Philly Cheesesteak, def worth the drive from time to time. They would have got 5 Stars but the chubby big hair None Smiling Cashier Dude just straight out savage. he seems not happy working the…

The pastrami sandwich is not bad. I like how they put the pastrami in the bread and it's like a flat bread rolled up. See my photo I don't know if I described it right but it's not like your normal…
Besides the warm hospitality received by the employees, Horrible food, if it wasn't the most disgraceful sandwich I've ever had, it's not worth the money you're paying.
I'm leaving two stars only because the parking is convenient and because the food is still good. But the girl working there has the nastiest attitude I've ever come across. It's almost like a go f*…
All good this trip ! Store opened on time, parking was easy, and my order was made in a timely manner . Only negative is that cole slaw was removed from the menu and never brought back ://

Service - Excellent and friendly Atmosphere - Clean and spacious. The selfie station was neat. Taste - Mediocre. Price - The taste does not justify the price. Spent $112 for 3 burgers, 3 fries, and 2 shakes. (I'd rather spend my $ at shake shack) Quality - After a 10 min travel time, the burger and italian sandwich I took home was soggy. The burger was nothing special and you can get better Italian sandwhich at Jersey Mike's.
Ordered the Buffalo Chicken Cheese Fires it took about 10 minuets. My fries were soggy I would have liked it better if it was cooked for longer. I’ve been here three times now and it’s been getting worse every time. The Restaurant has a good idea behind it but it just doesn’t live up to my expectations of good greasy food from the east coast.
We all know every food establishment is charging more for less, but Fat Sal's really takes it to a new level. I'd heard it was overpriced and overrated, but I found out for myself last week when I ha…

Totally disenchanted in the poor food quality, small portions, and abusive use of salt at off the chart prices. The Philly Cheese Steak sandwich was horrible. Besides being completely over salted and overpriced, it barely had any contents. A sandwich that both made me sick from the salt, but I felt completely ripped off. In one word "Trash". The excuse of a chocolate shake tasted "freezer burnt." I do not like leaving bad reviews, yet in this case, it is warranted.
