I got the ahi tuna tacos which were absolutely delicious they were a great size and can't with rice and beans. The amount of sushi grade who tuna in there made these tacos delectable and a great deal! and my husband got the oysters and chips which he said was delicious as well. The service was great and there was no wait. Cute little place close to the pier.
I've been here a few times, and the food, service, and atmosphere are all really good.
My wife had the stuffed shrimp, and I had the stuffed salmon. We both stole from each other's plates and agreed that the food was fantastic. The Clam Chowder is some of the best we've tried in the area. Will continue to return and recommend!
The food was as good as I remember, service was really nice. Has an OK view of the bay from the patio that can be obscured by vehicles in the parking lot. Lots of patio seating, but smaller indoors. Definitely worth the visit. Had an opened faced crab sandwich and a grilled fish sandwich. Both were very tasty. I debated the breakfast which is served all day
We have eaten at Fats Cats Cafe in Avila for our anniversary. We stayed in Avila for 3 days and we are at this restaurant twice in 2 days. Great menu selections, I ordered tubes and tentacles for breakfast (calamari lol) they still delivered great tasting food. My husband’s seafood eggs Benedict and ham eggs Benedict was delicious. The view was amazing, overlooking Avila Beach. The service was fast and food came out in a timely manner.
We came here for breakfast since the menu we saw online looked great and I'm glad we did! They looked packed but still made room for our 8 person party! Eating outside was very refreshing too! I ordered the eggs Benedict with ham and received a huge ham steak under my poached eggs, phew it was filling! My husband and dad got the biscuits and gravy and I poured some gravy over my potatoes, wow it was delicious! My son ordered a kids pancake breakfast and shared that with our toddler daughter, it was plenty! The staff was extra friendly, our food came in a timely manner, really there is no complaints! Oh if your child likes hot chocolate I'd recommend it, it comes out with a huge mountain of whipped cream and chocolate drizzle!
Loved the food - fish and chips, snapper, tacos! All delish and the service was great! Very accommodating and patio perfect at sunset!
Food was good, huevos rancheros was delicious. Server was friendly and I'm Only giving 3 stars for service because it wasn't super busy but I never had my coffee refilled or asked about it, when it's breakfast being served and coffee is around my pet peeve is no refilling. Definitely a fun little spot for food.
We love Fat Cats!! Whenever we visit Avila we usually stop for breakfast or dinner. Last night we stopped in for dinner and dessert. The restaurant was busy with one server, but we still had great service and a delicious meal!
My husband, my 3 month old baby and I ate dinner at Fat Cats and the food and service from everyone there was fantastic. Our server, Martin, was one of the best we’ve had in a very long time. He was so friendly, attentive, and gave us great food recommendations. When we arrived, they offered to seat us outside and brought us a heater so we’d feel comfortable on a chilly evening. We will definitely be coming back next time we’re in town!
Let me introduce to you the best kept secret, The Fat Cats Cafe. The service here is amazing everyone was nice. It was easy to get a table. The food was fresh and cooked to perfection. I actually ate something I never had before, which was Linguica sausage. It's a Portuguese style sausage and it was perfect. Overall, me and my pregnant girlfriend were very happy with our experience. The restaurant is right off the water with great views. Not an over crowded beach at all. That's why it's the best kept secret.

Awesome! Everything is awesome in this restaurant… I truly recommend it!
It was my weekend getaway to Avila Beach. My husband and I had a bowl of clam chowder, oysters, ahi tuna burger, and local halibut(fish & chips). Everything turned out GREAT except fries. Fries were cold. I highly recommend their local halibut(fish&chips) if available (It was special menu on the board). Staffs were friendly and everything was GOOD.

My Grandson and I spent the day together... we drove to Avila Beach to have lunch at Fatcats. He had never been to Fatcats and I hadn't been there in years... our burgers were cooked to perfection, and delicious. Our waitress was very friendly and the restaurant was as I remembered, it hadn't changed at all. Wonderful time spent with my Grandson, a lot of laughs, and many conversation topics. It was a beautiful day, the 🌞 was shining, and the Pacific Ocean 🌊 was such a beautiful blue.
Thank You Fat Cats
Fat Cats is our first stop for breakfast when we visit Avila. The Seafood omelet is a must. The homemade cinnamon rolls are also a winner. We also stopped by for dinner one evening and ordered the daily specials fresh halibut with mango salsa and fresh Ling cod fish and chips. The halibut was moist and grilled perfectly. The mango salsa totally made the dish. We also enjoyed the fish and chips. The service is always excellent. Go early on the weekends for breakfast to beat the lines.
it’s always good to come back here when we are in town. Friendly service, cool location with great view. We tried the delicious soft shell crab club sandwich on the special, recommended if you like soft sell crabs and club sandwiches like I do!
