Phat Cats Bistro

"My wife and I moved to Amesbury over 5yrs ago and we just had our first experience at phat cat bistro. Honestly we wrote it off based on the store front then spoke with some people who raved about their food, so we decided to come in for dinner…..the food, service, and atmosphere is wonderful! It is devastating that it took us so long to come in! We will now be regulars!"

"Our best go to place for a wonderful meal and $1 oysters on Thursdays. Gnocci was wonderful, flounder special well done and desserts....I always ask why not have one before the meal! Great service, wonderful baker and cozy."

"We loved the space. Sat at the bar. Colleen was a great bartender/server. Our meals were delicious! Lamb shank, spinach salad, caesar salad and lazy lobster with house made ravioli and vermouth cream. Can't wait to go back! We went on a recommendation of my husbands colleague, so happy we did! Thank you."

"Definitely late to the party on Phat Cats Bistro. Excellent experience. Sat at the bar and Dean took care of us...what a nice guy. Started with martinis, one black and blue and one Grey Goose. Baked Blues as an app, really solid blue cheese flavor and nice crostini - perfect portion for 2. Next a couple spinach salads which had great pear based flavors and the small was a nice portion. App and salads were excellent overall. We had one grilled tenderloin special which was cooked perfectly MR with nice veg and really solid mash. Super tender steak and overall really solid dish. The other meal was the creole seafood stew which was recommended by Dean and what a recommendation. Absolutely a go to dish in my opinion. Great kick with a ton of seafood and sausage. We finished with a piece of homemade carrot cake and it was awesome. Huge portion. Overall, why I waited so long to come to this spot. Definitely will return soon!"

"Update: a year later and I still think it was the best food I had ever had in last 10-20 years! Truly a 5 stars food. We had lobster and shrimp risotto and both were amazing. Quality is the best I had in months! What an amazing find. My meal had 7(!) different vegetables in it. Wow! I ordered large portion and it was too much food for me, should have went with a small (regular) portion. We paid little less than $60 for both of us."
