Fat Tiger Korean BBQ & More

We drove 30 mins to eat here and we have no regrets! Delicious!! The ambiance is old fashioned and it was dusty! Feel free to get your food to go if you have bad allergies like me. They will not disappoint!

This spot is worth the trip outside of the city. We ordered quite a few items to try a little bit of everything and loved it all! The fried chicken was our favorite. There were plenty of tables available to sit at on a Thursday afternoon. Do make sure to check the hours before planning your visit because they are only open Thursday-Saturday

Thought I walked into the wrong restaurant initially because the cabin look and wall decor made me think this was a southern restaurant! On a Saturday evening around dinner time, Fat Tiger was super busy. We waited for about 10-15 min to get seated and maybe another 15-20 min for our food, which is super understandable given how packed the place was! We got the fried chicken in the OG Korean flavor. The chicken was super tender and juicy! It also came with a pineapple cole slaw that was a nice light and crunchy complement to the richer chicken.Also got the grilled pork belly, which came with awesome side dishes, rice, and lettuce. Great smokey flavor, worked really well with side dishes and ssamjang sauce. The jjajangmyeong (black bean noodle) was also very flavorful and came with some of the best kimchi we've had in Nashville. Would've like the noodles to be a bit more al dente, but overall great dish. Located in a remote area about 30 min outside of Nashville with hiking nearby. Will be back!

I had to update my review because this time I didn't forget to take pics and I dined inside this time.Our sweet potato tempura came out hot, crispy, and delicious. That sauce that's drizzled on top is so good! Talk about umami, yum. My husband's hangover soup had me drooling. Thank God he doesn't mind sharing. He always lets me taste and I make him wait while I take a picture. My kimchi chigae(sp) I wish I could say it was good, but I wouldn't recommend that and I wished I'd ordered the spicy pork bulgogi instead. I don't like my rice getting soggy or even having it served that way. It was way too sweet. And I had to search for meat. The chairs and tables are cramped and you can hear everything your neighbors are saying. My chair was so low my chin was close to the table. I didn't mind and it was funny. You order first and get your own drink. And food is served on styrofoam. The same two ladies were working and they were friendly and helpful both times. It was still good enough that I'll be back to pick up my takeout pork bulgogi.

Not the typical place you'd expect to find in small town TN. Worth the drive to experience a unique, fresh, well cooked menu. The short rib special was fall off the bone, and the sweet Potato appetizer was as great. If you save room for dessert the cookies are homemade and delicious!Great ambience.. even better staff and owners! If you're looking for a fun, different dining experience don't hesitate to try Fat Tiger.

According to my husband, this is the closest to authentic Korean we will get close to us. Every bite was enjoyed! See photos for details. Very excellent Korean. Wish it was closer to us, because we'd visit frequently!

Absolutely love this hidden gem outside of Nashville. We eat here often and love that the menu changes every two weeks while still having a few staples to enjoy. I have done catering from them several times and everyone raves about the food. Wil continue being a local customer in the restaurant and catering.

This highly acclaimed BBQ did not disappoint! The service was drive was lovely. We'll add this to must do's in Nashville.

Visiting from California and this place is a must! The food was so good! I will definitely be back!

What a treat, great food, ambience, and service! Enjoy going every time. My Damian's friends always enjoys going.
