Fat Boy’s Pizza

Sometimes you are looking for a quick lunch and don't want a fast food burger or sandwich. When you are in the middle of downtown New Orleans, your options can be slim. Fat Boy Pizza was exactly what I needed. Giant (and I do mean huge) slices of delicious, greasy, NY-style pizza slices topped with an assortment of toppings that you can just grab and go. My wife and I split one slice between us and had plenty for a quick lunch. Perfect for when you are too busy seeing the sites to stop and eat. Prices were not bad vs. the size of a pizza slice. It was also right in the middle of the French Quarter, so you can't miss accounting for that mark-up. You can order by the slice or get a whole pie. The takeout boxes for a whole pizza were comically large, worth a picture. The pizza was tasty enough, not the best but definitely not the worst, and by all means most pizza is pretty darn good regardless. Worth a stop!

$26 for two cheese slices is a little rough. But, it's not that. A famous pizza guy gave it a 5.4 on his scale. You know the guy.... Anyway, if you're highly under the influence then this spot makes sense.Oil mixed with zero cheese flavor, I don't even know how you accomplish this task. It was hot, it had cheese, and I ate it. Somehow, I still felt empty inside - just like this pizza. Sigh.

30" pies = Huge slices!!Huge slices do come with not cheap prices. $12/pepperoni slice.It was good, not great, not amazing. It was good. I've had better and I certainly have had worse. It was a thin, NY style slice.I would do it again.

My NY pizza-snob husband gives this place two thumbs up. Great place to grab a quick bite and soak up some alcohol. Oh, and it's DELICIOUS too!

Needed something for my toddler to eat and I was just looking for a place they served pizza slices. The pizza is mediocre and nothing special. It's very greasy and the slices are massive. Price is high, but that's expected in the French Quarter.

Husband does pizza reviews wherever we go and we found this while roaming around Bourbon Street and thought it was cute and photogenic. Their pizza slices are like $10 but they're HUGE and look like 3-4 pieces. Hubs always does cheese so that's what we did and waited about 5 minutes for it to be warmed up. I thought it was actually very good. He liked it too and ate the entire thing when he said he wasn't hungry and was only going to take "a couple bites for the video" - so that tells you something.

First time here! first caution is to not underestimate the slices! I ordered a slice of Meat Lovers and the Fat Boy!They were both as you'd expect them to be! Lots of meat and oil dripping. I couldn't exactly describe how they both tasted. I was overwhelmed by how big the slices were! But boy was I full from one 1/2 slice! There were enough tables outdoors instead of inside. It's a pizza/sports bar type of vibe. I couldn't describe how beautiful outdoor space was, you have to look at it for yourself. I'd definitely come back here when I'm completely starving, or else I wouldn't finish a slice! haha

Pizza was fine, but if you wanted it custom, you had to order a whole 30 inch pie. Not much variety but it will do for most looking for a pizza fix. The sauce tasted almost like what you get on a frozen pizza. Crust was nice and thin, but not much flavor.

The pizza was mediocre--definitely not something I'd go out of my way for. It lacked flavor and felt more like the kind of food you'd grab after a late night of drinking. The staff also seemed disengaged, more focused on their phones than on customer service. Adjusting staffing levels might help improve labor efficiency and overall service.

After a day of drinking we needed something to soak up the booze in our tummies. We passed by this place on our way home and decided to give it a try. Billed as the home of the world's biggest slice, "because size matters," Fat Boy's Pizza is strategically located next to Pat O'Brien's. Brillant idea on their part because the patrons next door will definitely want carbs after downing all those sugary Hurricanes. The emphasis is on BIG here. 26 oz frozen daiquiris, 23 oz beers, & jumbo huge pretzels are also available. A cheese slice is $11 but it is large enough for two to share or save some for later. (A 30" cheese pie is $49 and pepperoni is $52.)We got a cheese slice to share. I wasn't impressed. Even though the server put it in the oven to reheat, the cheese didn't really melt to that perfect gooey texture. The crust was a bit hard. More like a cracker than bread. We both could only tolerate a few bites. The service was also lackluster. Next time I want a slice I'll walk a bit further to Vieux Carre Pizza.
